Who has ownership of those leases now?...

Four years ago, I was researching some plants from the early 1800's. The only place that had any information was the National Agricultural Library in Beltsville MD. So there I went, wore the gloves to protect their irreplaceable accessions, and found quite a bit of the info I was looking for. Ano...

Or do we give credit to the police department for saying they didn't have suspects, etc. and that lack of identification lead the two Nigerians to get back on a plane and deplane into the waiting arms of the police? Did they think that flying away the next day absolved them of coming to the att...

OT What ever happened with Taylors' Kids? The program started when we lived in NOLA, and when the internet happened, I couldn't find any follow up of what seemed to be an excellent opportunity....

Are you suggesting a come-back for the trio of Jussie and Milli and Vanilli?...

Go back to the first reports, that had JS stuck in New York for four hours longer than he expected to be.

Saw it in 3-D (hate the 'glasses') and a couple of places where the foreground stood out and appeared to move in front of the background, all of a sudden I had another level of "Wow" moments when I realized the additional level of work they'd done with the film. As said many times here and elsewh...

I knew someone in NOLA who had earned his PhD and was a Prof at one of the universities there. We were talking about life. He said that as a child, he was small and had been bullied a lot. He learned to live with bullies and how to deflect them. Then he eventually got to college and then to grad...
