Good suggestions. I tried to look up who hosted Romper Room but apparently it was a franchise and had a different host in each location

They should have to post the Ten Commandments in that church

We need to hold people like these in high regard as a society not the constant rotation of pop stars. Funny thing is I can't think of any women that belong on this though most of my teachers were women and they had a profound effect on my life. Dr Ruth Westheimer maybe?

Doesn't salt act as a preservative for food? There are only a couple things I'll add salt to. Now if we just started eating fresh food and less processed food no doubt we'd be better off. Hell we'd probably offset carbon emissions by eating locally sourced food and not having it delivered to us more than we would by banning fireworks

Is the article listed in the "Opinion" section? Opinion is not news. Some sections are titled "Analysis" or "Political Analysis" these should be viewed as opinion. Train yourself to recognize an opinion article by reading the headline before you even click on it. Also look to see if there is a dateline at the beginning of the article. This will tell you where the news is being reported from and the source. Some will tuck it at the end where you're less likely to see it (ahem, Fox News). Some will state in the article who is the source. These sites that are 90% political news will often have reporters in Washington DC and nowhere else. Personally I avoid reading articles who's headline is a question or state what "could" happen. Know that we all are prone to bias. In my lifetime we've gone from literally a handful of news sources to a thousand each catering to a group telling them what they want to hear. Don't be afraid to read stuff that goes against your beliefs, it will better prepare you for debating. Last and not least, for Jesus Fucking Christ don't base your opinion on memes!

I think we're all just chasing our tails sometimes

I should add that this was an American thing incase it isn't obvious

It was a trend for a short while in the suburbs. Keep a concrete goose in your front yard and dress it up accordingly to the holiday or season. Early 2000's I think?

Get a kiddie pool, fill it, soak your feet in it

Early Gen X. Just gotta say, the term.baby boomer was tossed around when I was younger but I never heard the term generation X until the 90's, maybe late 90's.

It's become the new concrete goose. I see these still up and wonder if folks bothered to consider where they were going to store them before buying
