National Hamburger Day
On this Day in 1900 the first ‘hamburgers’ were served at Louis’ Lunch diner in New Haven, Connecticut.
Five Food Finds about Hamburgers
The oldest fast food restaurant in the world is the White Castle franchise, which opened in 1921. The people of America eat more burgers out at restaurants or on the go than they do at home. The largest hamburger ever created was over 8,000 pounds and was cooked for a burger festival in Wisconsin. However, the hamburger in its current form, with ground beef and a bun, is a decidedly American creation. Hamburgers are made of beef, not ham, and there is much debate over whether they actually originated in Hamburg. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Today’s Food History

Until you were required to pay your "fair" share.

Same question most rioters in Ferguson were asking.

Or dispute them...not sure why y'all waste your time.

And she knew her political career was over without Bill.

I bet she would.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Clinton Foundation's financials....

When my daughter was around 12,13,14 years old, she had a friend spend the night. This friend was a heavy-set gal. We went to pick the friend up, and on the way back home Fat Bottom Girls came on the stereo. After we got home, it all of a sudden hit me. I started thinking "I hope this girl doesn't think I was playing this song in reference to her weight". So I decided the best thing to do was to kind of informally explain the song to let her know it wasn't in reference to her. So I started to explain. And as I just got started, it hit me again...How do you explain to a 13 year old a song that is talking about a man that loves to sleep with fat women because his overweight nanny molested him as a child. I immediately dropped the subject and prayed that she wouldn't run home to her parents saying I was playing fat songs about her. I never heard anything else about it, but the girl never came over to spend the night again. At that age, friendships come and go quickly, so I'm gonna chalk it up to that.

Yes, I do.
A lot of the Trump folks are backing him because they are tired of the status quo in the GOP and wanted change...fine, so do I.
My question to them is if you call yourselves Republicans/Conservatives, why no back someone like Cruz or Paul that are actually close to what the party should stand for.
Instead, the are sucked in by Trump's rock star tactics...no real conservative would have backed this guy from the start.
Now, we're stuck with him but I will be voting for him because I have no doubt the alternative can only be worse.

Posted this in bad ones, good ones earlier...I was speculating whether or not this was "workplace violence".

this would help make America great again!  LOL

Police officers are not another "movement". What if there was some tragic event and a few firefighters in a community were killed and the team decided to wear a red stripe for a year. Are firefighters a "movement" or is it just honoring someone? 
I don't think high school kids should be involved in politics while on a sports field. They shouldn't be wearing colors to support a political stance. 

The clintons are the posterboys for all he is railing against...and the crowd loves it.
The dems are a confused lot.

If hillary makes it to the White House, the female staffers better carry pepper spray.

This is exactly why Ted Cruz is hated in the Senate. The party leaders try to whip him into shape and he tells them to shove it up their... If we had 99 more Senators like him, regardless of party affiliation, we wouldn't need to be talking about term limits.

If you'll notice, the link says, "Shooting was legal".  No, he didn't have a gun in his hand, he had one in his pocket.  He was resisting arrest and his arms where by his side.  You do realize that if he had gotten his hand on that gun, which he may have,  he could shoot through his shorts?   This isn't the movies.  The Police don't have to wait until someone shoots at them first.  Those officers don't want to die.  Alton died because, 1- he was engaged in illegal activity, 2- he was illegally carrying a gun, 3- he was resisting arrest.  Oh, and in case you didn't know, this happened to him once before, but in the initial scuffle, his gun fell out on the ground, so he was arrested.  Think about all those things before you blame the police.

This circus will be much better...way more clowns.
