funny men administration
The story of the eighties will be the story of the Reagan administration and the many men and women who served in it, some of whom are already out on parole.
friendship love-you friend-love
Your friends love you anyway.
science simple water
Here's a simple experiment that you might want to try if there is absolutely nothing else going on in your life. All you need is a cork, a bar magnet, and a pail of water. Simply attach your magnet to your cork, then drop it into the water, and voilà (literally, "you have a compass")-you have a compass. How does it work? Simple. Notice that, no matter which way you turn the bucket, the cork always floats on top of the water (unless the magnet is too heavy). Using this scientific principle, early hardy mariners were able to tell at a glance whether they were sinking!
people want libertarian
I want to gag sometimes when I see who "we" are recommending that people vote for, and not just as a libertarian.

Editorials are written by people who have agreed to have several strong opinions a day and to write them down, provided they do not have to sign their names.

We should call editorials what they are: columns written by committees.

funny technology people
The population of earth has reached 7 billion people, every single one of whom send you irritating emails to join something called "LinkedIn."
driving truck inns
Childbirth, as a strictly physical phenomenon, is comparable to driving a United Parcel truck through an inner tube.
writing views people
I don't like anything unsigned in a newspaper that purports to be the opinion of some group if we don't know who the group is. It's laughable to say that The Miami Herald's editorials or any newspaper's editorials represent any views other than those of the people writing them, so why don't we tell everybody who they are?
