Yes, it is. Fortunately, from third grade through college, I lived in Cincinnati. Go Vikings Go Bearcats

Bill Clinton was the first "black" president, everybody knows that.

Not saying this to anyone in particular, just saying it to point something out.... Don't you guys on the far-left realize that people notice that you almost never criticize people on the left? It's always the right. Day in and day out, attack mode. It's getting old man.

Even the French are embarrassed. That's why the jacket wound up in an antique store for sale. :D

Seems simple enough: "The board decided the complex schedules used at the district’s three high schools didn’t allow for a consistent time for students to recite the Pledge of Allegiance." When I was in high school, we quit saying it every morning when they integrated the 9th grade into the...

When the economy is good, the president gets the credit. When the economy is bad, the president gets the blame. Truth is, the president has very little control over it either way. A bad president, like the one we've got now, isn't anywhere close to being as responsible for how bad things are as...

I don't go through several drafts, if that's what you mean. My principles, thoughts, ideas, and viewpoints are not created as I type them, they are long consistent over many years in many threads on these and other boards across the Internet.

Before you go all getting your Old Navy panties in a wad, this story is two years old, the manager of the Old Navy store, Old Navy corporate, the manager of the mall, the head of mall security, and the sheriff all confirmed that no one was banned from the store or the mall over this incident...

All you have to do is read the regulations. And, of course, be able to understand them.

It was tempting, but I refused to go there. The notion that it takes a village to raise a child, whereby somehow a child is communally raised and will turn out just fine, and the parents are relived of the responsibilities of teaching their children certain basic rules, values, morals and...

What I like best about this story is that it tells every would-be burglar and criminal that every apartment in that complex is unarmed. <snort>

Because they were off topic. No it wasn't. It was about some of the life lessons that people learn in a religiously moral environment, and I used a couple of mega churches as examples to Cheri's assertion that the same lessons aren't apparent in those types of churches. Which is entirely off...

Another trick I use when wanting something sweet is to get the sugar from something healthy, preferably with plenty of fiber, like peanuts, almonds, even an apple. I'm still getting the sugar, but it's a healthy sugar that you body knows how to deal with. But whenever I crave something specific...

I'm not splitting anything. I simply said it was understandable that they didn't know the rule, since it was off-campus housing. That doesn't mean they shouldn't have known the rule. "No guns on campus" is a well known rule, known even to those two guys, as they have stated, but they didn't...

That's exactly right. There is no Air Brake Endorsement, there is only a restriction from operating a vehicle with air brakes. The "L" restriction becomes applicable if you fail the written knowledge test section of air brakes, or if you take the road test in a vehicle without air brakes. If you...

The rule is, any headline that asks a question which can be answered with "no," then "no" is usually the right answer.

The downsides of sports, and religion, are clear. That's not to say the baby should be thrown out with the bath water. And you would be wrong. The church's returned check rate wasn't limited to small town churches. Small town churches didn't even make up a majority of the church business. We had...

It is the act of praying, more than the actual prayer, that teaches the most, whether you are the one praying or are the one observing the praying. I've never really prayed, either, but because of prayer I have learned other ways of attaining peace and comfort. It is a parent's job, but it's not...

While I'm positive there have been many factors affecting positive and negative behavior in school students over the years, I'm equally certain that school prayer is at least a significant factor, because if nothing else it teaches conformity and how to behave respectfully and civilly in a given...
