    On the other side of the coin, some left thinking folks here are trying to start a boycott of Hobby Lobby.

    I agreed to never buy anything from Hobby Lobby on Sunday.:rolleyes:

    Just being facetious. I don't do secondary boycotts at all.

    Sundays would be a great day for a Girl Scout cookie sale in empty Hobby Lobby parking lots! :)

    Mixed feelings on that one.
    In Alaska the Native groups allowed the pipeline to go through their lands, got a great deal of money out of it, set up Native corporations and did very well for themselves.
    They still have one of the highest suicide rates and accidental death rates per capita.

    In Canada the Native groups have been fighting the pipelines.
    They have been building cabins in the way of them, tearing up the stakes, refusing them on their lands, and generally being a pain in the ass.
    They still have problems but they have their pride.
    Which is the better choice.

    Nice thing about Nebraska with its unicameral (one house) legislature. It automatically cuts the bullshit by at least fifty percent.

    My daughter and I were in the car when a song, I think it was "Sunday Bloody Sunday," came on the radio.

    I said: "This band is so popular that they named the world's biggest video sharing web site for them."

    That was a few years ago. I think she has forgiven me since then.
