Perhaps few, but some were outspoken about it. I encountered one of
them at my niece's wedding which IIRC was 11 1/2 years ago. The groom
was from North Carolina. One of his aunts told me, and I am quoting it
exactly as I remember it... "We got us a nigger for a president." This
is not a poor family. They are fairly well off, despite the attitude and
the grammar.

The Democrats will gladly cheer for another 100,000 deaths if it
gets Biden elected. Don't doubt that.

Gary, that is sick to even repeat that. I surely hope you don't
believe that.

This post cracked me up this morning when I read it.
 
Why, you ask?
 
Because a fake Bruce said it but the real Bruce has
indicated the same opinion in the past more than once.

What is the name of that and what area of the beach are they
located?
 
I know of an excellent Mexican restaurant here.
Can't recall the name at the moment.

It sure is turning that way fast. Most products sold, have
both languages for ingredients or instructions. Call any
company that offers a phone menu and the first thing is to
"Press 1 for English, Press 2 for Spanish"
 
I just got a letter from the Treasury Dept. yesterday telling
me to expect my stimulus check soon. I got the check 2-3 weeks
ago. (yawn)
 
Anyway, this letter was from the White House and signed
by my Führer. It's a one page letter. First side is in
English, reverse side in Spanish. WTH?

If fresh made chicken with no chemicals added and also
fresh made coleslaw, all natural too, causes indigestion
with you two, then I don't blame you for not eating either.
Just don't blame KFC for causing your problems that long
ago.

Stupid, dumb posts from both of you. That long ago it was all
natural (I can't speak for recent times). I did eat some about 6
years ago and it was as tasty as ever.
 
Your indigestion problems are Trump's fault. Even dating back
40-50 years when he was a young rich fellow.

Yup. He lives in a world of 'toss it'. Many of us do not.

Washing machine takes care of that. Even what you call 'really messy'.

Clueless Sheldon, truely clueless.
 
Washing 14 table napkins and folding them up for resuse takes 5
minutes. Unless you have company, ironing isn't expected or done and
unless you are a complete idiot, you can fold 14 of them in a minute.
 
As to steak knives, not everyone is getting steak that can be gummed to
death hence butter knives are not the proper gear for them.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Dave never mentioned watching soap
operas while washing clothes. I looked back a few messages and
the only reference to soap was, "everything went through the
wringer to remove the soap."

I made masks for my lot in case we were ordered at some point to wear
them if outside. I used an old white bed skirt, nice heavy weight
cotton and very washable.

I remember when my mother got one like that - second-hand, of course. Up
until then she'd been using a washtub and scrubbing board, followed by a
mangle/wringer.

Read again Gary, he didn't deny it.

I read his response and he didn't deny it. But he never said that
in the first place so I'm all confused now.
 
Feel free to quote an orginal where he even mentioned a soap
opera, and prove me wrong with this.

It can be a good thing for some but not all. Depends on reasons
and circumstances.

They might have been top of the line 40-some years ago but
they are ancient ones now. Speakers do age and go bad.
Look for new top of the line speakers if you're still
looking for ways to blow any money that you have left.

What he is refering to is the US Social Security retirement.
Full retirement was age 65 for years but they keep raising
that for newer generations.
 
My full retirement age was 66. And with John's generation,
it was moved to age 66 and 10 months.
