Holy crap. Profile says he’s in Minnesota. Bets he’s in Michele Bachmann’s district. Probably a big fan of Ol’ Crazy Eyes.

Yeah, orzo is the goods. Braise some lamb shanks, plop 'em on a bed or orzo and you’re on good shape - just need a good greek salad and a bottle of roditis and some crusty bread…

Damn, now I have to go to Greektown.

The cure for it is to give up listening to the phony ‘news’ network and the ‘entertainers’ whose entire business model is to, as my sig line implies, fill you with fear and anger so that you’ll keep coming back for more.

This world has a lot of very real terrors and darkness. The crap these people are so angry about doesn’t come close to those. And the dire predictions of doom they constantly sell? You’d think they’d eventually catch on that none of them ever come true, but sadly they just get caught up in the next wave of fear and outrage.

_Because they like it._

If they didn’t like living their lives in fear and anger, you’d think they’d stop going back for more.

> You can check in on this board every six months and it will be the same libtards bashing republicans and conservatives. Time to get a life children. Time to grow up. Obama is not god, although you worship him as if he were. And, there is very little difference between the democrats and the GOP. You partisan hacks just refuse to accept that your side is just as evil as the other side. So, throw your sticks and stones, pretend the democrats are altruistic and are not to be blamed for anything and you will see this country destroyed in short order. Pull your head out of the sand or your ass and see the light.

See you in six months!

Next time, come back, bring facts!
