Re: Dr Ben Carson - Post 2016 Election
The bananas are more to the point than the chocolate content, if any. The waffle part is obvious. I used to have a high opinion of Dr. Carson. Perhaps that can be restored someday.

I've seen the Trabi Safari putting around Berlin and thought that would be fun to do sometime. Especially in the zebra. 8-) According to a credible source: A Trab...

Since OO acceptance of smart phones is all over the map (literally; by district), this may or may not be an obviously feasible solution. However, the Ami...
