A timely piece on Fox News coinciding with the tipping discussion. Notice the $12.97 total.

they are not the behemoth they once were. I’m hoping my pension is still there in 3 years

Maybe a dumb question but we have a BJJ academy near us called Igor Gracie. Is that somehow connected to Gracie Barra?

A friend from work got into BJJ and loves it, I've been kicking around the idea of trying it out forever. Maybe one of these days

Morning Woods, rain, rain and more rain . Makes walking the dogs a pain, Bo doesn’t like to get wet and has to be drug outside, Gracie could care less. She pokes along sniffing every blade of grass .
