Well....that was refreshing! Let's try again. Another subgroup. How about the poor ? the blind? the elderly without such a nice nephew? or a Frontier Web page designer?

She does not mow her lawn...never did. What a stupid reference! But I noticed the source so that piece did not shock me.

Perhaps Obama will fix this.
