How that excuses her from testifying is beyond me. My friend’s son had his 4th concussion last month and is still expected to attend his college classes and practice with his team.

Did you all see this this weekend? The conductor calls music "the smile of the soul", and this is a big grin. Amazing kids and amazing people. Sort of gives you hope in mankind.

Soupcon

Selling fake soup is a soupcon. But as Dr. Fraud said,’Sometimes a con of soup is just a con of soup.’
