Yes, Fallbrook residents are drinking fluoridated water and no one asked the residents of our community if they wanted fluoride (medicine) added to their drinking water. As I said before, the voters in the city of Davis, California were asked to... Full story
Mr. Monday seems to like many government services. I wondered what additional government service he might enjoy. Here is my idea. A new government website will be created that any citizen can access to enroll. When enrolled, a new government provided app will be downloaded to the person’s smart phone. When installed, a large brown button will be prominently displayed on the screen. When the person feels the need to enter a restroom, they will push the brown button. A government worker armed with toilet paper will be p... Full story

That Obama has a quisling (traitorous) administration determined to run the U.S. into oblivion. That Obama is worse than Pearl Harbor, and that Obama has become a cancer and is eating away the spirit of A... Full story

Prices are no more than the big box stores and the quality is superior. The usual outstanding service was abundant. The young man helping me...

To get everyone thinking about their habits, Chakrabarty asked if we try to use better gas for our cars, better cleaning produ...
