    I guess I missed the Pepsi issue.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

        You are not sufficiently woke then. Let me help:

        Last week, a new Pepsi ad featuring Kendall Jenner attracted an onslaught of media attention for all the wrong reasons. In a nutshell, the ad features…
        "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

          Yeah, I guess I'm not woke up yet. It was pretty stupid and indulgent, but didn't seem that horrible. I am missing the offense.

            According to my daughter, woke people clue in to the obvious nod to black lives matter and egregious stereotypes. I am most definitely not as woke as her, though I find the commercial pretty stupid.

            SNL helped me become a little more woke. This might help all our wokeness, or lack thereof:

                      Was thinking... no way that this can be real, but then I saw this at the end of the article:

                      In other news making headlines, a couple in Alabama have been shocked after their neighbor was caught by a security camera raping their pet dog.

                                I'm not sure if I should be more or less outraged.
                                My flight this morning was overbooked by two people. They were offering $1000 plus a ticket to a nearby airport (1.5 hours away). There were no takers.
