Lifelong blood donor here. Like dozens of gallons. Went to donate and there was a worker there pretending to be a female. After donating I complained. You know, trying to protect the blood supply. I was notified that my blood had been refused because I tested positive for aids. Excuse me? Testing from my doctor proved negative. Now I am black balled from donating, all because I spoke up.
@SGTWipper1Each My heart goes out to all of you. My wife has a severe case and tries not to complain. We are lured by all the charlatans that have miracle cures. I hope that Elon's work with the brain implants can solve this.
@SGTWipper1Each Reminds me of the time, as a young pup, Monday morning formation after a weekend of hard "camaraderie", getting ready to pass out and doing the Zombie walk.
Just need 5. Any 5 Republican senators can request (in writing) a special Conference meeting.
The conference meets.
A motion is made to elect a new Floor Leader (Majority Leader).
A majority of the conference (27 of 53) votes yes. The vote is typically by secret ballot if contested.

I'd like to see those 11k write in signatures. Murkowski became only the second U.S. Senate candidate since the 17th Amendment (1913) to win via write-in votes (the first was Strom Thurmond in 1954)General Election (November 2, 2010):Lisa Murkowski (write-in): 101,091 votes (39.49%)
Joe Miller (Republican): 90,839 votes (35.49%)
Scott McAdams (Democrat): 60,045 votes (23.46%)
@data_republican I am still angry about this:
In the 2010 Alaska Senate election, Lisa Murkowski won as a write-in candidate after losing the Republican primary to Joe Miller.
This looks like a non-venomous watersnake (genus Nerodia), most likely a Brown Watersnake (Nerodia taxispilota) or a Northern/Common Watersnake (Nerodia sipedon), based on the dark brownish-black body with irregular darker blotches/saddles, moderately thick build, and overall appearance in the photo.
