Politicians love to talk about “The American dream.” However, the phrase wasn’t coined by an elected official. That distinction belongs to writer and historian James Truslow Adams.
Adams penned it in his 1931 book “The Epic of America.” Of course, he couldn’t have known it would go on to define the type of life most Americans aspire to. In fact, in his book, the phrase seems to have an entirely different meaning.

Enough already; the Ixtoc leak lasted for 9 months through hurricane season and the gulf recovered. No one cried and complained; all they did was try and stop the leak. Enough moaning already; oh I forgot people in the US of A keep whining until you get a free lunch. It is called the American right to sue!!! Guess what the Mexicans got from the Ixtoc Disaster — A big fat “ZERO” compensation for those affected!!! Only in America can you take bellyaching to a new standard; yes you have …
I used to hate Bank of America’s over draft policy! But now I LOVE IT! It has turned in to my #1 investment strategy and has netted me $1370.00 of guaranteed income YTD

I hadn’t seen brains splatter on the ground in a long while, so I wasn’t prepared for this documentary. Pretty much everyone in Sierra Lione including children gets dragged into a national war. No one is safe not even people who visibly are refugees or farmers. This documentary does a great job of pointing out everyone who is involved with the murders and the plundering of the country from top officials of the UN to the world population. The documentary is biased toward the citizens of Sierra Lione which …

It was a bit nippy in there bc of the weather so i would caution future guest from sitting too close to the door. The place is really
People love to tell me things: my best friends, friends, complete strangers, complete stranger’s cousins. I don’t know why. I am hella judgmental. Like one time, my guy said to me, I saw this tranny on cl and I thought to myself I should hit that- and I did. And I thought to myself bitch y would you tell me
The person who lives under me complained about my noisy feet. So the first thought is to tell them to fuck off, but what happened was I noticed this very annoying HOA pin on his shirt. The outfit was gaudy. He was wearing a shirt with chess pieces but it had been bedazzled. I said, “Luckily for me, I
