Los Angeles saw a lot of predation after the Rodney King incidents.

Someone help me get this thing out of my head!

I heard this on Saturday and can’t stop hearing this crazy lady threaten to serve lukewarm beverages in a flower-free house.

that is scary! We worry about skunks roaming at night down here - still sort of rural where we live so you occasionally see deer roaming or hear a coyote - but skunks are scarier... lol

I’d stay inside and keep all foodstuffs thoroughly contained.

The planned predations of the current administration upon our carefully acquired stores of emergency rations require the above.

Of course. Anyone who is serious about winning office has to be.

Oh, and he was arrested for DUI in March and spent the night in jail.

Meanwhile, the slush fund debit card investigation is narrowing in on Ravenstahl.

Speaking of a flower-free house, how about that Vokoun and shutout?

It seemed like the Penguins were playing as if they liked their coach and hated explaining losses to the media. Especially in the 3rd, where they just played a safe “kill the clock” game.

He’s everyone’s favorite right now. Gotta give Tyler Kennedy credit for playing like a madman in his first chance to suit up in the playoffs.

And did the NBC guys draw the parallel between Crosby’s goal and the Lemieux “parting of the defenders” which is now a statue outside the arena? That was against the Islanders, too.

On Root sports, they ran the clips side by side.

The only predation dems practice is to take out republicans and to take our paychecks. They are very good at it, too. A+++

One lady came home, parked in her driveway then noticed her garbage can was tipped over in her open garage. She proceeded to go clean it up when a bear growled at her, knocked her down and stood on her back while finishing his dinner. She had had back surgery to correct a problem and he blew it all out requiring more surgery to fix it. Do I worry, heck yes. They have babies then growl and go all aggressive when you get near the baby bears. Scary as hell.
