It’s Canadian management that can’t pull off a championship.

I get that it is hard to win the World Series with only one team as the standard bearer. However, Canada has multiple teams in the the NHF and none of them have won the cup in over 30 years. There is something wrong there.

Yeah, but you can’t win the World Series or the Stanley Cup.

I agree with all those things, but they haven’t proven to increase the birth rate significantly in other countries.

I think the key to offsetting the negative effects of a declining birth rate is generous immigration policies.

I got a Costco membership a year ago to get hearing aids. I never bought anything else there except the $1.50 hot dog.

I have no interest in buying mass quantities of crap I don’t need.

Happy Birthday. You and my mom were both born on the same day and year.

Florida geek here. Because of climate issues,real estate values etc, Fla does not grow many oranges anymore. However, Fla still processes OJ with fruit mostly from Brazil.
Brazil is Fla’s #1 trading partner.

That Brazilian OJ you are drinking may have been processed in Fla.

Wouldn’t Adam Schiff and Rueben Gallio going to the Senate and leaving vacant house seats offset the losses of reps going to the Trump administration?

Make people pay social security tax on their full income, not just the first $168K. If that isn't enough to make social security solvent, tax the rich more some other way. We are a rich country. We can afford to take care of our retirees.

“Calls are for emergencies…” says who? There is etiquette about calling too early or too late, but phone calls have been the primary source of outside communication all of my life.

I do text, but I find the ding-wait-type-ding-wait-type of texting more intrusive than a conversation on the phone.

Boomer here. An interaction that requires a dialog is much easier to do by phone or in person than by text or email.

People do not have to drop everything to answer the phone when I call. Call backs are fine.
