Evidently, you don’t read much besides the sports section. It has happened.
Look for an article in the NY Sun “outrage-as-scooter-riding-teens-could-face-10-year-prison-terms-for-leaving-scuff-marks-on-gay-pride-crosswalk”. There are a bunch of other articles about it as well. Now the scooter people are rigging the scooters to stop if they are about to run over the sacred crosswalk.
Of course, it’s fine for cars to take over a bridge for their acrobatics, with maybe one arrest. But don’t desecrate the sacred crosswalk.

So, I have to eat thousands of flies to get about the same protein as a bite of a Quarter Pounder? (I didn’t do the calculations, so any of you can feel free to check me.)
A 12mg fly contains 19.7g of protein. Does anyone proof read any more?
When’s the last time you voted against yours? Why should you make a decision about my Congress member, or why should I decide about yours? Kick yours out if you want, but let me take care of mine.
