today i discovered that a grown woman of my acquaintance, who is older than me, did not really know that there were state Capitol buildings and then a federal one... and thought that the CA state capitol had been a possible target on 9/11.

12:16 am
torgone

I work with an otherwise smart person who was convinced that Obama had somehow made all the ammunition manufacturers create gunpowder that would expire on a certain date, so that civilian guns would not work when he came to confiscate all the guns ..
12:16 am

1:33 pm
moolingwa

makes it too easy for me

but...I don't begrudge others doing it
1:33 pm
