It's one thing if you are going to play golf or croquet on it, but otherwise, wild flowers (and yes, some weeds) are nice.

40 ABC does not fail its sworn duty, ever.

Georgie S reports on The Haggard Queen's latest story, using only the most indirect of words, never saying the word "criminal," and mostly saying how it's a Republican problem if and when they overplay their hand.

Extremists. That is the impression ABC wants to leave, and Georgie dutifully performs, reading the words with sincerity.

91 Some times I hate it when I'm right. Daughter wanted to go to a concert at an outdoor area Tuesday last week. She was going to drive and meet up with some friends. well I told her no she was not taking the car all the way out to the area in rush hour and back at midnight with a bunch of drunks on the road, it wouldn't be safe. Well we ended up in a compromise that she could go, but she wasn't driving, she would have to find a run. We guess what, found out over the weekend that the car load of girls she was with was in a fender bender. She sheepishly admitted that dad is right sometimes.

Heartless Texas Racists Inspired By Trump Speech.

Jessica Gonzalez, 79, a retired housewife who was born and raised in
Laredo, said she'd watched as the city she'd grown up in had changed,

"I

have is people from foreign countries. ... It's not like it used to be."

Through the weeds a rapist pushes

Abandon hope, there's no escape

It's Tuesday- day of rapey rape.

More Texas Racists!

LAREDO, Texas (AP) - There was an audible gasp from the gathered crowd as Donald Trump's 757 lifted off the tarmac.
"Oh
my God. Wow," said Gina Gil, 48, after an excited shriek, reaching for
her 11-year-old-nephew. "I think it's a historic moment, ma'am.
Seriously, I really do."

Somebody must stop this racism!

My God! Texas is FULL of racism.

Outside Obregon's Mexican Restaurant, Enrique Harrington Ramon, 75,
said he felt Spanish-speaking immigrants "take advantage of us" in
Laredo, and said people are responding to what Trump says "because it's
the truth."
"I am sick of walking into a store and hearing 'en que le puede ayudar?' What country are we in?" he said.

121 Three New Jersey public employee pension funds have sued the state for not making "sufficient contributions", whatever that's supposed to mean legally, to the fund.

Good luck with that, since its effectively an attempt to legally compel the state to raise taxes. Unless the funds can simultaneously compel residents to not move, this suit has zero meaningful chance of helping the public employees.

Consider: we live in a world where verifiable fact is now racist, and truthfulness is inimical to the values of the US Senate.
