I read this article today and was spitting mad. The short of it is that a few folks running a tax-exempt purportedly educational organization have been arrested for Medi-Cal claims fraud. I hope that case goes well for the...

I've been very busy final proofing and synopsizing a 600 page novel with Bodiemor. I'm sore from sitting down (after sitting down so much at work all day) and very under-exercised. But we're almost there. To boot, my boss' wife...

Trumptainment - How Much Can We Take?

seren3 @seren3 (387) • Los Angeles, California 17 Sep 15

I've heard many comments about how refreshing Trump is in just "saying it like it is". Yes, that is a nice change - for a couple of weeks. Yet seriously how long can it go on before he presents a real plan for solving all the...
