Dilemma in the supermarket

A supermarket dilemma I faced a while back.

Some nifty little frozen dinners I like were labeled $0.50 off. When I got to the checkout, I found out the total price was ringing up as $0.50. Normally they were almost $5. What to do? 😈

I want some of these

bribes, kompromat, blackmail, Ukrainian escort honeypots—you know, the works.

cozy night

A cozy night watching sleet come down outside, sipping a coffee, and cuddling with a dog.

If I could make a wish
I think I’d pass
Can’t think of anythin’ I need

investigative journalist robert parry died saturday

Born June 24, 1949 – died January 27, 2018.

I admired him greatly. He is one of the great ones. Since 1995, his website has been an Internet beacon.

From an e-mail I got from the site today:

Robert Parry, editor and publisher of Consortiumnews.com, died peacefully Saturday evening. In this tribute, his son Nat Parry describes Robert’s unwavering commitment to independent journalism.
