... un-inspected food to compel a cooperative resolution to our current political impasse.

Horror and blame and anger has a way of jarring stubborn humans from their recalcitrance.

1. If the victims are democrats, it wont make a tinkers damn of a difference.

7. Ugh don't say food poisoning

I am in the midst of losing seven pounds and counting from either the salad for lunch or chicken for dinner on Monday. If I poo one more time my butt is going to be the shape of a toilet seat permanently.
