I'd rather give $20 to Westboro Baptist church protesters than drink "raw water". The former won't give me cholera or cryptospiridium.

You don't have to do either...

I remember the old joke from that time. The one about Tammy Faye getting whip-lash, when a chunk of makeup fell off one side of her face. She had that caked on thick.

Yeah, it’s all about the spousal privilege. That has to be part of why Bill and Hill are still together.

Chelsea Manning files to run for US Senate from Maryland. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Manning would be challenging Democrat Benjamin L. Cardin, who is in his second term in the Senate and is up for reelection in November. Cardin is Maryland's senior senator and is considered an overwhelming favorite to win a third term.

It's been a tough week in the PTL region of SC/NC.

Two Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s deputies were involved in a fatal domestic shooting Monday, according to the sheriff’s office. Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police are investigating the death as a homicide.

A domestic violence call that became a manhunt resulted in four law enforcement officers being shot overnight in York County in South Carolina, just south of Charlotte.

Refuges still risking life to keep from being returned to their wonderful countries.

Link

It's a ride that could cost someone their life.

Refugees are crossing into Canada on foot in subzero temperatures with rough winds.

Kangni Kouevi--a refugee from Africa is facing what his case worker calls, “certain death” in his country, and fled, making his way to Minneapolis about ten days ago.

Not familiar with the climate...once he found out he was set to be deported, he chose a different path.

“The wind was very strong. He said it was like the wind was trying to kill him,” said Karin Gordon, of Hospitality House Refugee Ministry.

He called a taxi driver to take him from Minneapolis to the Pembina Border Crossing--and walked through nearby farm fields until the -40 degree wind chill forced him to call for help.

"The fellow who drove him from Minneapolis and dropped him at the border, stripped him of $700 for that service, didn't warn him about the cold,” said Gordon.

Between 2007 and 2016, shipments from five major brewers—Anheuser-Busch, MillerCoors, Heineken, Pabst, and Diageo, which owns Guinness—fell by 14 percent.

Mmmm Hmmm...
Do you see how many Cable Companies there are
Comcast and Time Warner

Back in the early 90's there were three dozen major players
all competing to provide the best product at the most competitive price and options

Do you want to know what's going to happen with "Craft Beer"
Take a few guesses remembering that this is America and favorable legislation can be purchased

:lol:

I'll give Craft Been about 10 more years
