Gosh I thought it was me taking the bucket of grit down to the basement.
Evil eye is watching you Ice.

The City of Minneapolis, evicting 48 of the poorest families in its care, for a total of $30,144.
Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.
