Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    $9.52 for three miniscule chicken fingers, a regular fries, and a regular drink. Seriously. Then I go to the pharmacy, and it costs ONLY $13.05 for 60 mg of lorazepam. What is going on... Oh, while I am ranting, what the hell is with memory foam? It offers no support and just compresses...

    Bad Parents - Reproduction Should Not be a Right

    People I know, call them semi-friends if you will, foster children for the income. They usually care for 3 kids at a time, some of which are retarded. These children are introduced to this world by people that cannot even care for themselves. What blows my Canadian mind is that my...
