    Scary experiences

This one they called Snomaggeddon or Snocopalypse but regardless, feet of snow is feet of snow and they've had a bunch of those. 7 feet in 24 hours was special tho, and it kept snowing for a week, right over Buffalo and the southtowns They found a person or 2 frozen...

    The offended continue..

    Just asked my daughter those 4 names. Had no idea who any of them were, but had heard the name Hitler. Maybe leaving them up with a plaque explaining would do something to pique their curiosity, you definitely can't tell them anything they don't want to know. Young generation coming up is not...

    Maybe if they had, those places would have remembered better, instead of sliding back towards the same. You can't erase the past by taking down a statue...would the young people in those places even know who they were? Well Mussolini, don't think there's any danger there

    Newb question / advice about insurance.

    Sounds like you are trying to figure out if it's worth it or not. Guesstimate what you think you'll make and subtract 55% for expenses, then take your taxes off as self employed...if nothing goes wrong, that tiny number left over is your potential income :D
