Viking sagas describe the ritual execution of blood eagle, in which victims were kept alive while their backs were sliced open so that their ribs, lungs, and intestines could be pulled out into the shape of bloody wings. Five years ago, Professor Miroslav Djordjevic, the world-leading genital reconstructive surgeon, received a patient at his Belgrade clinic. It was a transgender patient who had surgery at a different clinic to remove male genitalia – and had since changed their mind. The Religion of Footage released by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) shows more than a dozen of rockets being fired at southern Israel from the Gaza Strip. The attack took place late on Friday after five Palestinians were killed by the IDF. If you want to be ridiculed, mocked or worse, that's fine. You're an adult. Not a very smart adult but still an adult. Your 5 year old on the other hand is just that, a 5 year old. Dickhead attempts to live vicariously through his child and things don't go well. A photo circulating on Twitter on Friday showed a man dressed in a Nazi soldier uniform standing with his 5-year-old son, who in a green suit and toothbrush mustache appeared to be dressed as Adolf Hilter. TriStateHomepage.com reports that the man and his children attended a Halloween event in Owensboro, Kentucky. In a Facebook post shared to Twitter, Goldbach defended the “historical figures” costumes and described receiving threats at the event. “Anyone who knows us knows that we love history, and often dress the part of historical figures,” Goldbach’s post said. “Tonight as we walked we saw people dressed as murderers, devils, serial killers, blood and gore of all sorts. Nobody batted an eye. But my little boy and i, dress as historical figures, and it merits people not only making snide remarks, but approaching us and threatening my little 5 year old boy … Threatened to rip his outfit off of him screaming obscenities, scareing [sic] a small child.” The Indian government is reviving its efforts in its war on pornography this week by ordering telecom companies and ISPs to ban 827 adult sites from their networks. This directive follows an order from the Uttarakhand High Court, which found 857 sites to contain adult content – similar to an order issued back in 2015. However, upon inspection, the Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY) found that 30 of them didn’t host any pornographic content, and so the list was cut down accordingly. Jay walking deterrent. NSFW It's Saturday night, yet how do I delicately introduce this link. Science. Research Reports. Sex Toys. Oral sex. NSFW You were warned. Amid Megyn Kelly’s controversial remarks about blackface on Halloween, a video has resurfaced of talk show host Jimmy Kimmel wearing blackface and seemingly mocking black athletes. For Comedy Central’s “The Man Show” in 2000, Kimmel dressed up as NBA Hall of Famer Karl Malone. A UK man who donned a risqué outfit on the job as a prank has been fired for “gross misconduct”. Warehouse worker Shaun Haggerty, from Merseyside, England, pulled off the prank at work late last month. But a week later, he was called into a meeting where he was told he would be sacked over the stunt, which saw him stroll through the warehouse in front of staff, business contacts and customers wearing nothing but a novelty “elephant thong willy Not all cops are donut eating, coffee swilling power hungry maniacs. Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day. North Brunswick Police Officer Anthony Torres was on patrol on Route 130 Wednesday at around 3 p.m. when he noticed people pulling over and running toward the tree line, where smoke was billowing. He circled back and saw a car had crashed into a tree. He ran toward the car, but saw the driver was pinned down. "As soon as I got there, I knew I was going to have to go back and cut the seat belt," said Officer Torres.

Posted by: Donna&&&&&&Vislookingforwardtospringtraining at October 27, 2018 09:44 PM (d6Ksn) It makes a certain sort of twisted sense. If your goal is to be edgy, you will gravitate to the taboos. These days, a lot of stuff formerly thought taboo has become run of the mill. So, they gravitate to the stuff that will get attention. Hitler gets more press 73 years dead than he ever did alive.

I know. I think they saved it for "special occasions/people". Lot of effort there when other forms of torture are much more rewarding and the targets do themselves in. I speak of impalement. Make the stick just a little long than their legs so they can relieve the pressure but not get off. eventually their legs give out. That's what happens with crucifixion. Eventually the body sags as the arms can't support it and you're unable to breathe enough. You still can but you slowly asphyxiate. That's why they nail the feet so that if you lift yourself you're in pain and if you relax you can't breathe. Eventually it all catches up. Some will last a while and that's when they take a stab up into the side to penetrate the diaphragm. It's actually a mercy at that point. Our ancestors delighted in torturing their enemies. And being tortured in return. Life was cheap. And the gods were cruel. Any atheists can thank the Christians for those practices now being outlawed. They were invented by pagans and nonbelievers just like the atheists. And any atheists who have a moral code? Ask them where it came from. It didn't come naturally from atheism. It was borrowed because it made sense. Posted by: jakee308 at October 27, 2018 09:55 PM (O0+Wj) 60

Viking sagas describe the ritual execution of blood eagle, in which victims were kept alive while their backs were sliced open so that their ribs, lungs, and intestines could be pulled out into the shape of bloody wings.
And now they've been conditioned to be so timorous as not to touch a hair on a Muslim's head as they rape 10 year olds and defenseless women. Of course I think it's an advance for people to develop moral sensibility. But if they can be conditioned into Eloi like passivity - that's tragic. Better that some instinctive resistance is eventually awakened, that they go into the no go zones, and revive the tradition of blood eagle.

I've always been a 'let the punishment fit the crime' sort of person.
Torture someone? Then you get the same torture. Seems fair to me. for property crimes you make them trade part of the life in return. Physical harm? Do the same to them. That said there is a barbarity to that that poisons the society. We've gone out the other side. Now our lack of fitting punishment has released a lot of scum and let them justify to themselves it's okay. Bring back some form of capital punishment. And let's streamline the appeals process so that ppl don't live 20 year before they get axed. And it could be done so many pain free and cheap ways instead of the elaborte means no available. Firing squad or heroin overdose. No real pain and a whole cheaper. Posted by: jakee308 at October 27, 2018 10:03 PM (O0+Wj) 87

You know what's coming next (heh)?
That's right; robot rights. Ppl don't understand that slavery didn't stop just because England and the US made it law and enforced it and even had a war over it. Slavery stopped because of the Electric generator and the Internal Combustion engine. Those are no our surrogate slaves. That's all slavery ever was; labor that wouldn't be allowed to run away or slack off. It's what many societys made advances because they had slaves. Egypt, Greece, Rome would never have been the empires they were without slaves to do all the menial work. If we outlaw machines and electricity, we'll be back using human slaves within less than a generation. Guaranteed. We still even have a vestige of it in capitalism with those who hire themselves out to do work. The difference mainly being that you can quit a job you don't like and they can't force you to do it.

It also does nothing to compensate the victim. Yeah, seeing vengeance done has its satisfaction, but the victim is still missing his eye or whatever. An alternative would be to put the offender to work at hard labor, with the proceeds of his labor going to the victim. Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at October 27, 2018 10:18 PM (vOkuK) 173

Child Nazis. Back in the mid-of 70s, I lived in a neighborhood in Chicago, Marquette Park, that was unfortunately home to some Neo-Nazis. I remember walking out of a Walgreen's one Saturday to behold a child, no more than 10, decked out in a Nazi uniform, passing out Nazi leaflets.

It's a natural gas that we're all used to breathing and we don't detect any odor. Carbon monoxide smells, and carbon dioxide is what we exhale and would make us choke and gasp for breath. Breathe pure nitrogen and you notice nothing amiss until you lose consciousness. Posted by: rickl at October 27, 2018 10:30 PM (sdi6R) 223

Here's a question. What music would you like to have your loved ones play at your funeral.
Artist and song. J.S. Bach, from Cantata 147: Jesus bleibet meine Freude, Meines Herzens Trost und Saft, Jesus wehret allem Leide, Er ist meines Lebens Kraft, Meiner Augen Lust und Sonne, Meiner Seele Schatz und Wonne; Darum lass ich Jesum nicht Aus dem Herzen und Gesicht. (English): Jesus will always be my joy, My heart's comfort and essence, Jesus is there through all suffering, He is my life's strength, The desire and sunshine of my eyes, My soul's treasure and bliss; Therefore I will never let Jesus go, Neither from my heart nor from my face." https://tinyurl.com/ybjv76b6 The tune is better known to most people as "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring," but I like the stanza that Bach chose for his cantata (which he wrote, incidentally, for the commemoration of the Visitation, Mary's visit to Elizabeth, traditionally observed on July 2).

A lot of times, the acts ascribed to barbarians were lies written by the folks they preyed on.
Guess who the Vikings liked to sack a lot? The monasteries. Back then they were like the banks; that's where the money (re: gold cups and silver sconces and such) was. So guess who got to write about the Vikings? That's correct; the monks wrote and rewrote a lot of the history of Britain, the Anglos and the Saxons and the Vikings. I have a feeling they weren't averse to putting in some made up stories. Posted by: jakee308 at October 27, 2018 10:33 PM (O0+Wj) 234

One thing I found interesting - I probably learned it here - "An Eye For An Eye" is often mentioned today as some sort of barbaric relic from days gone by, but in point of fact at the time of its inception, it was a very liberal concept.
What it meant was, that any punishment for a crime should be proportionate and not excessive. See the difference? It was a very enlightened perspective. Posted by: Common Tater at October 27, 2018 10:37 PM (JCbo4) 247

A lot of times, the acts ascribed to barbarians were lies written by the folks they preyed on.
Guess who the Vikings liked to sack a lot? The monasteries. Back then they were like the banks; that's where the money (re: gold cups and silver sconces and such) was. So guess who got to write about the Vikings? That's correct; the monks wrote and rewrote a lot of the history of Britain, the Anglos and the Saxons and the Vikings. I have a feeling they weren't averse to putting in some made up stories. Posted by: jakee308 at October 27, 2018 10:33 PM (O0+Wj) Nice, except that it actually comes from (much later) sagas written by the vikings' own descendants, I think. The historicity of the blood eagle IS in doubt, but it wasn't written down by monks whose monasteries had just been sacked. Posted by: Grey Fox at October 27, 2018 10:44 PM (bZ7mE) 271

One thing I found interesting - I probably learned it here - "An Eye For An Eye" is often mentioned today as some sort of barbaric relic from days gone by, but in point of fact at the time of its inception, it was a very liberal concept.
What it meant was, that any punishment for a crime should be proportionate and not excessive. See the difference? It was a very enlightened perspective. "An eye for an eye" is a quote from the Bible. Posted by: Grey Fox at October 27, 2018 10:46 PM (bZ7mE) 276

Autoblow: $160. From that vulva paper: ------------------------------------- In this work, we examine data collected during the Autoblow Vaginal Beauty Contest... We used the contest data to assess the diversity in vulval morphology and voters' preference for different morphologies. Labia length, protuberance, and rugosity data coded on images submitted to the contest allowed us to classify vulvas into six styles based on an increasing degree of protrusion and complexity. Roughly 51% of voters preferred the first two classes of non-protruding, simple labia. The other 49% favored the four more complex vulva classes. -------------------------------------- So, innies vs outies. https://vaginacontest.com/ If any 'Ettes want to submit "data". I'm suspicious of that, because anyone knows the plural is "vulvae". Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at October 27, 2018 10:56 PM (f1Vqw) 312
Ah, the Sandy Denny and FPC version is very nice! The original version, I take it. I think Judy Collins covered it, but this version is really good. I vaguely remember that when it was released. I was young. Who knows where the time goes? The DJ could follow that up with "White Bird" by the band "It's a Beautiful Day", sort of another more obscure tune.

Goodman was a wonderful entertainer.
Agreed. I just wish he had written something equally good about those other recurrent NL losers, the Phillies. There is, however, a 1976 song (IOW, 4 years before they won their first WS) called "Phillies Fever," recorded by Mike Schmidt, Greg "The Bull" Luzinski, Larry Bowa, David Cash, and Garry Maddox. Yeah, they sing about as well as you'd expect from a bunch of baseball players, but it's still pretty funny. One of the commenters said that it sounds "like a theme song to a '70s buddy cop show." https://tinyurl.com/y8sygjjx Posted by: Basement Cat at October 27, 2018 11:10 PM (3C9q2) 363

The vulva is term for the entirety of the external female genitalia. That vagina is the muscular tube that leads from the vulva to the cervix. You don't see that unless you use a speculum and flashlight. It used to be euphemistically called the "birth canal" a lot. But there is this tendency to use "vagina" to refer to the whole kit and kaboodle and it has just always annoyed me. Believe or not, this is a hot topic, and they get a lot of complaints from readers of magazines and such about that. Some feminist wrote some piece about it, saying "I'm gonna call it a vagina, because I want to, and I don't care what you patriarchal men say it's called". https://preview.tinyurl.com/yd54dnjm Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at October 27, 2018 11:12 PM (f1Vqw) 369

222 No, actually, nitrogen does work, for that very reason. It's a natural gas that we're all used to breathing and we don't detect any odor. Carbon monoxide smells, and carbon dioxide is what we exhale and would make us choke and gasp for breath.
Breathe pure nitrogen and you notice nothing amiss until you lose consciousness. Posted by: rickl at October 27, 2018 10:30 PM (sdi6R) Carbon monoxide is an extremely dangerous gas. It does not smell, so the first you will know about it will be either when your carbon monoxide alarm goes off or when you pass out. Worse yet, if somebody near you notices and drags you outside, it won't do any good - carbon monoxide binds more tightly to hemoglobin than oxygen does, so even if somebody drags you outside, you may still die from it. Any pure inert gas is an extreme suffocation risk. There have been many accidents from people entering tanks to clean them out only to die because there was no oxygen in the tank. It's very fast, because your lungs happily pass the oxygen out of your blood stream into the surrounding gas (permeable membrane, so the oxygen partial pressure must be the same on both sides). The result is that you pass out in (I think) something like 15 seconds without ever knowing anything is wrong. Posted by: half a mind at October 27, 2018 11:19 PM (np68J) 394

I read it wasn't at all uncommon for games in Babe Ruth's day to be over in an hour. They didn't have breaks for TV commercials and they just didn't dick around as much. No stepping out of the batter's box to adjust gloves and stroll around, no 5 minute pauses on the mound to contemplate what pitch to throw next. Posted by: Donna&&&&&&Vislookingforwardtospringtraining at October 27, 2018 11:02 PM (d6Ksn) The main thing was no commercials. At the end of an inning, the defensive team ran back to their dugout and the offensive team sent the first batter to the plate. The umpire yelled "Play ball!" There was no break. But today MLB likes to pretend that intentional walks drag out the game. Yeah, right. Posted by: rickl at October 27, 2018 11:20 PM (sdi6R) 395

Trannies are fucked up in the head and think mutilating their bodies will fix everything. Then they do it and realize they're still fucked up in the head. And thus the high suicide rate and these regrets and wanting to go back.
I read an abstract of a meta analysis of "sexual reassignment surgery" that noted that a number of studies had shown no psychiatric improvement as a result of the surgeries - that "transgendered" individuals were just as unhappy, just as depressed, and just as suicidal after the surgery as before. Normally, when a surgical procedure is shown to provide no benefit, the recommendation is to stop doing the surgery. That wasn't possible in this case, of course (the authors didn't want screaming mobs of "transgender" individuals harassing them), so the paper's recommendation was to provide more counseling after the surgery.

I always thought that pop songs at funerals a little pretentious. You're dead, who cares, and will everyone marvel at your good taste? What's the point. I guess it's how it's done. A high school kid got killed drunken driving in the fog one year in the 70s, his mom played "Songbird" by Fleetwood Mac, scratchiness and all, at the back of the church at the end of the service. I dunno. I can't really hear that song, it's sort of ruined in a way.

Left-wing millennials want to abolish the Senate, since the Senate is evil and racist, and denies California the ten Senate seats that it deserves, but it is dawning on them that you'll never abolish the Senate through Constitutional amendment, since three-fourths of the States would have to approve it. Therefore, the Constitution itself has to be abolished, so that a better, more progressive Constitution can be enacted, over the objections of those pig-ignorant redneck Trump states.

I was going to mention that very quote. The advantage of democracy is not that you necessarily are going to get good leaders, but that it is easier to get rid of the bad ones. And, when democracies are faced with truly existential threats, somehow leaders like Lincoln and Churchill rise to power, who would be unelectable in normal times.

I think I can do one on the cheap by using mildly modified prefabbed metal carport frames. After I get a quote for the frames and the polycarbonate sheeting, I will get a quote from a horizontal drilling and excavation company about putting in geothermal tubing for air, and then try to get some information about groundwater and temperatures for various depths to see if geothermal even possible.

It has also provided a remarkable degree of political stability, save for the one civil war required to settle the slavery question once and for all. I went on vacation a number of years ago in Croatia, and noted that in the last century, the part of Croatia we were in had been: 1) part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, 2) part of Italy, 3) part of Communist Yugoslavia, and 4) part of independent Croatia. That hasn't been the US experience.

Actually, the word "Democracy" appears nowhere in any of the founding government documents - not in the Declaration of Independence nor in the Constitution, nor in the Bill of Rights.
There's a reason for that. The people who wrote the constitution set out to specifically preclude Democracy, as they had studied history, and knew that it always led to what they called a Mobocracy. Agitation, Demagoguery, etc. Posted by: Common Tater at October 28, 2018 12:21 AM (JCbo4) 517

At the same time, they knew that a Dictator - or a King, or other "strongman" form of government was no good either. So they set up a system of divided government, a separation of powers, with checks and balances.

Posted by: choogle at October 28, 2018 12:15 AM (fAKhf) I think the 5 hour thing happened in Bulgaria if I remember right. Its usually way louder out in the crowd, but stage volume could be pretty intense too. There are much better monitor systems these days, so bands can use less stage volume. Back in the day we used brutal stage volume. The high end of my hearing is pretty much gone, mostly because of the drummers. As far as being too old to do 5 hours, thats mostly up to the drummer and singer. The bass and guitar players can pound all night, because we don't need to worry about losing the voice, or the physical demands of being a drummer.

The best medium on which to store your archived funeral music, is a well scored, annotated and musically explained sample of sheet music of such, with a Studio Master LP of the music in the vault.
Aside from the sheet music, there is no digital form of music which will degrade as slowly as a high-quality LP. Put in in there with even the cheapest record player, and receiver with built in pre-amp, and the diagram to connect 'em all, and you're set. Magnetic media decays, always. Only UltraDisk 24k CDs endure in that format. All lesser CDs decay. MP3? first gen is already unplayable in many modern platforms. Analog might not be the "best" sound. But it'll damn sure outlast all of the others. Jim Sunk New Dawn Galveston, TX Posted by: Jim at October 28, 2018 12:47 AM (QzJWU) 553

I think they would just have to do it like a regular "transman" job. You know, this always struck me as funny somehow. They can make a frankencooter out of a penis, but they can't go the other way. It's like discrimination against transmen. You know, this kind of stuff is just mutilation. There is no valid medical reason to do that, and I don't know how any doctor can justify it. It's Frankenstein/Dr. Mengele stuff. They pretend their "treating" something, "gender dysphoria" and so all this mutilation is treatment. There is no valid reason to do this. If someone thought he was a dog, would anyone try to surgically make him look more like a dog? Nope, that would be insane. South Park did a take on just that theme.

And since that actually seems to happen, I think a better argument is we don't let anorexics starve themselves to 60 lbs because they think they're fat.

There's a lot of stuff that can cross that line, and some surgeons will cross it. Somewhere there is a legal line (or at least enforced by the medical boards). I know my dentist was telling me he occasionally gets people in that want to crazy shit. One I remember was someone wanting "vampire fangs". He simply says, "No, there is no valid medical reason to do that, and I will not do it." It's an ethical matter of risk vs benefit. If there's no reason to do something, then no risk is acceptable.

That line is subjective. For example, a hard line argument would be that all cosmetic plastic surgery is unacceptable because there is no valid medical reason for it. But, it gets into well, the patient would feel better about themselves, yada, and the risk is really low, etc. But there is a hard line there somewhere, and it's sort of obvious that genital "reassignment" crosses it.

The man can keep phenomenal time and is most definitely a rock god. Posted by: Deacon Bleau at October 28, 2018 01:16 AM (yScAF) 602

Berzerker IS in the thread. Ask him. I think a lot of the Pete Best lore is about as solid as Gore having won FL in 2000. Starr's post Beatles career is not a fluke, you know. Jim Sunk New Dawn Galveston, TX oh noooo. I know about as much about the beatles as King tut knew about our space program. In other words, jack shit.

Uh, how many albums did Ringo actually perform on? I thought there was someone else that did a lot of the session recordings for the albums. Like once they did some research to figure out if any albums had used Pete Best's drums.
Posted by: buzzion at October 28, 2018 01:11 AM Starr did most of the recordings on the LP's and singles. There are some (not sure how many, at least a handful... probably more) on which someone else plays, when Starr wasn't in the studio for the take, was off his face, or generally absent... but that applied to pretty much all of them.

I love listening to drummers. To me, Ringo wasn't flashy, but really solid. Go your own way by Fleetwood Mac is a favorite. A bunch by the Who. It all comes down to the drummer. The bass player follows the drummer, and everyone else follows them. Drums are primal.

The man can keep phenomenal time and is most definitely a rock god. Posted by: Deacon Bleau at October 28, 2018 01:16 AM That would be the 1st single "Love Me Do". IIRC... even Starr is not certain about who appears on which record. There were 2 versions one for the LP and one for the 45. Session drummer did the first one and Starr was allowed to do the other. The reason for the confusion is the sesh drummer used Starr's kit and aped his (very simple) part. Starr reckons he plays on one of them, but can't recall or figure out which one... again, IIRC. Posted by: otho at October 28, 2018 01:34 AM (LkFnL) 628
Every hard core, instrument playing, gig money making musician I'm acquainted with, holds Starr in the highest regard.
As to the album liner reading, Tiger Beat subscribing, Rolling Stone reading, Big Bambu smoking dilettante reader non-player I've known? The pros would all KILL to play a gig with Starr. Not only because "Beatle"... but because they're in awe of what he does at the drum-set. I've read countless tributes from Rock God Drummers from the '70s, 80s', '90s and all of the aughts... the lowest praise was to hold him in high regard, and it went vertical from there. Starr put the drummer-ry in the back seat to the front of the stage. Lead guitar, rhythm, vocals, etc. But the solid foundation of a Starr drum pattern, and the Base of a McCartney.... pretty solid place upon which to build legends. And, they did.

No more than an F-86 Sabre being entirely dominant over the Soviet competition, yet becoming nothing more than a target drone to an F-4 Phantom. Which became drones to the F-18's. Which will in time, become drones to whatever follows. Starr was the F-86 Sabre of his time. Dominated the airspace, but in a pre DRUMMER! era. The drummer era was a supersonic time. And sadly, the current thing is an inhuman algorithm. Keeps perfect time, without a trace of soul. Refer, Starr. And now, the circle is closed.

A lot of people said that Starr had a "pudding" (not pudding cup type of pudding) sound. And there were drummers that tried to copy that and were successful. Mick Fleetwood and others. So many people when they listen to rock, whatever the genre, always listen to the guitar riffs, or the bass or the vocals, and most pay little attention to the drummers. I don't know why, but I've always paid attention to the drummers. I guess that's why I love listening to Japanese drummers. Daimo, Taiko, whatever they want to call it. I want to be the one beating on the really big drum.

I guess that is one reason that I love the Taiko drummers. No or little other accompaniment. Very stylized. The different drums with different tones. In a way, very martial. I really don't know of any other culture that does this in this way. Many cultures have used drums for different things in the past, but nothing like what the Japanese have done to my knowledge.

I did see a statement there were no children as victims, but no list has been released.

No shooter was taken alive, 3 police officers were injured but don't think any were life threatening

I would say one of the unfortunate pieces of collateral damage you know will be coming down the pike will be lawsuits against Gab.
It's not fair or right but I can see that easily happening. Posted by: Kreplach at October 28, 2018 05:44 AM (kT3/m) 698

Somehow I lost the clock in the upper right corner being visible all the time. I have to pull it down to see it. It was visible and still is on my other two browsers.

@698
I looked at some of his Gab timline before it was taken down. He's basically ranting to himself. On one thread he has exactly three comments so these nutballs are for all intents and purposes muttering to themselves in a corner and not some large group so I don't know how you monitor and police what could be hundreds of thousands to millions of accounts for "extremism" without simply using "algorithems" to shut down "hate" without doing the same thing twitter is doing. It's a real conundrum. Posted by: Kreplach at October 28, 2018 05:53 AM (kT3/m) 701

I haven't watched much news at all about today's tragedy but am I correct that calls for gun control in response have been muted from Dems/Media? I'm assuming the parties that be are careful not to inject that Republican base motivator into the national debate.

Should I get rid of my sugary candy I have bought and get those salad bags to hand out Halloween night? I'm sure I'd be the most hated person on the street if I ever did that. Last year two young kids came back to my house just to tell me my candy was the best, not the cheap stuff they got elsewhere.
