Bring back the stocks. A little public humiliation goes a long way.

In jr high and high school the dean of boys and the PE coach both kept us straight with a good paddling now and again...never got one I didn't earn/deserve ..

In England in 1971 when I was 12 in a Catholic School in the 6th grade around Tynemouth they would cane the palms of the kids in the auditorium during school assembly in front of everyone...I thought that was crazy as we didn't get that at St. Andrew's in New Orleans in grades 1 through 5..

I think removing the ability to spank a child did the children of today a disservice with removing an understanding of how the world really works..

Stopped in Smith's Grove KY, above Bowling Green, on the way to Indy for the PRI Show, gas was $2.27,right on the Interstate.

I suspect it will take a while for prices to make any movement downward from the inflation insanity. It usually does. Diesel isn't down, as much, so fuel costs are still driving the costs of transporting goods to stay high.

And that is how multiple account babies are made…

With great power comes great responsibility. Don’t be like the shade cheaters. You use power for good!

HAHAHA that's rich. What good will a second account do for me when I only fly in the MA to prep for FSO and I never give a damn about "THE WAR"?

I purchased 4 lbs. of butter for $9.99, 5 dozen eggs for $9.99, 5 lbs. of Hamburgers for $18.79 this week. You can check it out at BJ's Wholesale Club.

Housing prices were inflated by migrants and a long with that property taxes, food, insurance, and you name it.

Car prices went up from Covid $bucks and so did many other things.

I don't sense doom and gloom at all. In fact, finally, I won't get taxed on Social Security. I'm pretty satisfied right now. At nearly age 72 I'm doing my best ever. I pray it continues.
