Let’s Clarify Torture
Update: See below. You can ramble on for days about official definitions, provisions, and every other semantic weaseling you like, but we all know what torture is. Any honest definition includes using fear, repulsion, hatred, pain and other highly emotional … Continue reading

Coffee Like Paint Remover
Nobody else in my household drinks coffee, but I love it. However, I’d rather do without if I have to drink that paint remover sold by Folgers. I started drinking coffee when I was 12. Living in Alaska, as I … Continue reading
