Re: Flame Retardant in Your Mountain Dew? Nope

I think it's the proliferation of aps for cell phones. Social media - which does a lot of its distorted-reality damage via cell phones and computers and their associated apps - is at the heart of it. That doesn’t explain how this started BEFORE those things were invented or in wide use. Oh, I'm sur...

The MC casino has been there for almost 7 years now, and is rather small compared to their mothership in Petoskey.

No, I was talking about me receiving a call from a distressed parent/brother while I am in the car alone in bottle necked traffic. Put it on speaker and set it down I suppose. Which is what I do. Perfect. But coming real soon look around you first. Too bad this isn't like idling trucks and buses in...

It says .ca on the logo, but I don't see the words "Porta John" anywhere as suggested by TCT. That term may be a middle class euphemism. Probably less that than a difference in l...
