One of my sisters, who is the unofficial archiver of the family, kept the photo albums when my parents passed. However I kept another treasure: the Rolleiflex camera that recorded our childhoods.

I'm hoping he's being truthful. I not only believe the post office should not be privatized but should be subsidized. It's a vital government service.

Trump is about to find out how wonderfully petty Brazil can be. Elon Musk found out earlier. They are also the 9th largest economy in the world, 5th largest country, the world leader in alternative fuels, and leader on the global south in food security. Also thanks to new agreements with China and EU they really need the US.

They also are the largest producers of sugar, beef, coffee and chocolate.

I'm just wondering how obvious his dementia has to be before he gezs removed.

Bring back Geocities!

It's very common. When I was looking for an apartment they wanted a $75 fee before even showing me the apartment. O told them I work too hard for my money to give it away like that.

Or more like "you promised to be horrible to the people I wanted you to be horrible to. Why are you being horrible to me?!!?"

I had someone actually try to get me to pay to see rental property well. Mine were a little mote greedy and wanted $30.

I told them I work too hard for my money to be handing it out like party favors.

You probably are unaware that both UPS and FedEx both contract USPS to deliver their parcels. Both last mile and long distance as well. A lot of packages are picked up by USPS their UPS store, and delivered to another UPS store, after a nice markup.

Him and his billionaire buddies need a tax break, so here we are again.
