The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?

The freedom gas is an unfortunate item. I would like to see them convert coal burning plants to oil and natural gas while we figure our shit out. Coal is the evil one.

It really is a sad stare of affairs that most people just shrug and go ‘meh’. Another day.

I see the perp was ‘disgruntled’. Here that would result in a few hard stares or maybe a glower.

No biggie. Just another friday in America. The Republican party's gift to their fellow Americans...
