Thank you for sharing this important information.

I know, aren't I helpful?
A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

Does one sleep better, saving a place at the table for him, during dinner?

Only if it's a big meal that will put you to sleep.

The United States of America does NOT have 50 states.  There are 46 states and 4 commonwealths.  Four of the constituent states of the United States of America officially use the name "Commonwealth". These states are Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

My uncle told me today that most- if not- all of the USA's treasure (gold, gems, etc) are kept in the vaults at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Ironically, Kentucky is also one of the poorest states (or commonwealth).
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Nicholas Cage will start filming "Runner" in New Orleans next month.  "Runner" won't mark the actor's last trip to town, either. He also owns a 9-foot-tall, pyramid-shaped mausoleum -- emblazoned with the words "Omnia Ab Uno," or "Everything From One" -- in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, where he plans to be laid to rest.

I may live forever rather than be buried in the same town as him.  The only movie I've seen of his that I liked is Guarding (Saving?) Tess, with Shirley McLaine.

When you think the world sucks, something like this happens.

The New Orleans Saints have signed Devon Walker to a one day contract. What makes this unique is that Devon just graduated from Tulane with a degree in Cell and Molecular Biology. Oh, yeah. In September 2012, he took a bad hit from a fellow Tulane player and was paralyzed from the neck down. With help from a friend he completed his degree. And now he's a Saint. Devon will continue pursuing his Master's Degree at Tulane.

I know teams that would benefit from players like that.

I can't think of a single employer who wouldn't benefit from a man like him.
