A Woman Scorned…

This post is about abortion. Viewer discretion is advised… When is abortion NOT controversial, so I felt it was necessary to open with the equivalent of a movie black screen MPAA warning… you’ve been warned… The right to have an abortion was decided via Roe v Wade on January 22, 1973 by a 7-2 vote […]

Arby’s Had the Meats…

Addicted to Deli

I grew up in an extremely Jewish community. So Jewish that we did not go to school on Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur. So with that goes a lot of delis. Old fashioned, authentic Jewish delis. MMmmmm. I love deli, especially corned ...
