Party of one

Do you think Tucker will ask if he knows the population of Israel?

Bite your tongue. Like a lot of things from the past, they need to be viewed in context

Without US supplying arms the Israel will turn to another country and take their valuable intelligence gathering in the region with them. Most likely Russia or China.

The Israel's were always very cruel to the Palestinians but you'd never know it due to the lack of media coverage

A large magnet. I bought it on a whim ~20 years ago for $20 (still online for same price). I got it on a whim while buying gifts from an educational toy website. It comes in handy whenever I drop something small that ferrous or just need it to hold onto things.

I put on sun screen every morning to ward off basal cell skin cancer. It sucks but it's cheaper than going to the dermatologist to have basal cell skin cancer removed. The worst part is getting it in my eyes. On the plus side, the splotchy age spots on my temples have disappeared

He said it was "his job" but never mentioned who he works for

$30 minimum wage and two parent households might be able to raise their child themselves

Somehow he has the uncanny ability to make everything about him

I am friends with a few guys that grew up together in a middle class white town. When they would get together and party they'd call each other awful words. I don't think they're racist or homophobic, the slurs they called each other were a sign of how close they are

Huh I've never seen a wall of these and I'm old enough to remember the 70's. Glass block was something you replaced your old basement windows with

Camera person was obviously the target

I had a Radio Shack computer in the early 80's. When I sent in the warranty card, my address ended up on nerd mailing lists. Compuserve was the only public ISP and access cost $7 and hour IIRC plus it was a long distance call around 50 cents a minute (ask your grandparents). I was able to access the internet for free at public libraries. Had no idea what I was doing but managed to see weather predictions and access Nexus which was a digitized database of periodicals (magazines).

I looked into opening a bar long ago in a fairly rural college town. One of the regulations was to have one parking space for so many seats. It's an issue in a neighborhood where I once lived. Most of the houses were built before cars so most residents park on the street. It became the hip new place to be and high end restaurants and bars popped up causing lots of conflict

Huh that's interesting, maybe because San Francisco is so densely packed. It's the exception not the rule. In our car centric country having parking space requirements is common sense like building codes.

Not just Nashville. Any city in the US and undoubtedly other countries. Also not just apartment buildings.

Set aside a cardboard box for stuff you haven't used in years but you'd hate to throw away because it's still useful. When the box fills up, drop it off at the thrift store and get another box

I'm up to 9 so far this year

Keep in mind that even after checking yourself after being in the out doors they may still be on your clothes or in your hair. Check yourself again the next day. It takes them awhile to burrow in

What happened to "America First"?
