From FB group Orange Talk I’d like to tell you a true story. Back before Direct deposit, we (SAC) had to set up check handout tables for the students on Financial Aid. We had four lines, A thru G, H thruvM, etc. Each had an accordion folder with the checks sorted alphabetically. One day I

From FB group Orange Talk Heidi Norris Dawson Okay, then ‘they’ pack up and move to a different county or state. Turns out that the country’s biggest private employer, Walmart, or possibly some other retail company, is the only employer with jobs available. So ‘they’ decide to take out a huge student loan and go

Someone I know posted this to Facebook: “Courage is not living without fear. Courage is being scared to death and doing the right thing anyway.” What does this have to do with Snowden?

There may be a Light Bulb Conspiracy, but it’s not what you think! First, let’s discuss the Light Bulb Conspiracy claim. They said that years ago, incandescent light bulbs lasted for 2500 hours, but now they last for only 1000 hours. They claim that this is a conspiracy to sell more products “by planned obsolescence.”
