You have to go for the stuff with added fat - barista style - to get anything approaching decent.

Ok. This actually made me laugh. Thanks.

It's almost as if many white men in important jobs are only there as "special hires" and not because of qualifications or aptitude.

Time to boycott El Salvador. Knit clothing seems to be their biggest export item.

Trump has learned that people will allow him to keep crossing over their "red line" and will draw an new red line. He's been doing it for years. Now Americans are saying he can throw out the Constitution, so long as they aren't yet personally impacted, but they will react at some future point when he gets even worse, maybe.

When I shopped on Sunday Save-On-Foods had onions from Alberta (instead of the usual USA ones) and Hams were divided into to freezer sections - one Canadian made, and the other USA. They are slowly, very slowly, understanding that many of us will go without if we can't buy Canada first, Mexico, Europe & S America and Asia next and never USA.

40 years ago, I loved driving. Even 20 years ago it wasn't bad. Lots of open roads near by. In the big city, rush hour was 30 mins in the morning and an hour or so in the late afternoon. Other than those times you could get around the city quite well. There were always some yahoo drivers but they were a small part of the population not a majority. Now I walk whenever I can, take the bus sometimes and only drive if I know I can do it in the lower traffic (although still busy) times. I'd like to bike more but unless it is a completely separated lane there are too many badly driven vehicles to take chances with my life.

So what? The election is over for at least another 18 months or 3 1/2 years - if there is another full election. Doesn't matter now that Trump already had their vote and won. 99.9% can disapprove and nothing will change.

Not accurate. The Lib would be wearing a life jacket and know how to swim.

If you only see the abbreviation fl oz and happen to live in Florida, I can see making the connection. People don't talk about ounces being both a volume (fl oz) and weight (oz) measurement. Go metric and you don't have to know!

April 7th article for April 1st?

In fairness to Trump, he has never, ever experienced the consequences of his actions. Bankrupt? Didn't put a dent in his life since his father and banks kept the money flowing to him regardless, more than once. Rapist? No jail time. Fraudster? No jail, not sure that any fines have even been paid. So why would he think, when nothing bad happens to him and he can still golf the weekend away, that anything bad will happen to all the people losing their jobs, their investments, their retirement, their homes? Why don't they all have rich fathers and sycophantic bankers to bail them out? At very least they should have Russian mafia backers like he does, that make it look like he's a billionaire, even if it really is billions in debt to them.
