In an age when school administrations preach "zero tolerance" both on and off campus, the fact that they tolerated a whites-only event implies their endorsement.

Stores, which are having difficulty luring people in as it is, should make those people PAY for the privilege?

So that's what the slide looks like. I can see the museum from work, but I've never actually been there.

I've got one coworker who thinks the place is wonderful, and another sees danger in every corner of the building and thinks it is an insurer's nightmare.

Every now and then I like to put the live ISS feed on the corner of my desktop. External views are shown when the astronauts are off-duty.

One of my cats was an alley kitten that I took in, shortly after his mother turned him loose on the world. After having him neutered, I brought him home. He was still feeling the effects of the anesthetic, and as I lay him down on a towel in a temporary "bedroom" I had made, he stood up, put his forepaws on my knee (with those little needle claws digging in), bit my finger... and slowly lowered his head, falling asleep with my finger between his teeth.
