I broke part of my hand last October after slipping and falling. At the request of my new insurer, I went to my local urgent care. The rep for my insurer swore up and down that they had an X-ray machine and could diagnose my problem quickl

We had this our freshman year of high school (NYC suburb, USA). Perhaps I'm biased from growing up in a coastal town where swimming was a very popular competitive sport and lots of people had boats, but teaching kids in middle or high

That might have been true in decades past. They now, having merged with LiveNation, have effective ownership of all major and semi-major venues around the country. They also aren't just doing concerts, they're doing sporting even

Donald Trump doesn't give a fuck about any civil service act. He never has, and never will. He will do as he pleases, and a GOP led congress will simply let him, laws and precedent be damned (and the Supreme Court will comply). A DEM
