@cherryhaswings My daughter read it in school this year. I told her the only time I wrote fan fiction was about ‘The Outsiders.’ It was also a TV show when I was in middle school.

I called my parents to make sure they are awake & going to safe place. If you know someone in the warning, please do the same

Dear Parents,
Please teach your kids theater manners. Because believe me when I say I'm not afraid to, right in the middle of a movie.

How many times can I reply to someone’s Twitter account “try fact checking“ before it becomes too much? I mean, if you consider it should be they reply to everything they tweet?

[Kimberly Lyon @Prof_Lyon_News]

@MarshaBlackburn Try fact checking.

This live tweeting during state subcommittee is solid reporting with some good background links.

Just learned @PayPal closed a dispute, despite my screenshots of conversations with a client, confirming both payments. Worse, there’s no way for me to dispute a closed case.

Well…this explains a lot. We also ran the aftermath of the OKC bombing on TV in the background while carrying on with our lessons.

Looks like the kids start classes later than I do tomorrow...that’ll be interesting, logistically.
