"Driving may damage your ovaries." Why I don't plan to visit Saudi Arabia anytime soon. There are women truck drivers in the United States, and I've had a few women who were my school bus drivers. Also, women have been known to be safer drivers.
As of recent, many governors are not living in their state-owned homes is becoming a common trend. And it's entirely understandable. You don't own the house, in fact, nothing in the house is yours. California went as far as selling its governor's mansion in the 1970s. At least New York's current governor takes fair advantage of the home.
Thank God I didn't go to college in Alabama. I've made no secret of my dislike for Greek life. It's too elitist. And it seems in Alabama nearly 1/6th of the University of Alabama's student body is a member of one. Let's keep in mind that Alabama tragically was where Natalie Holloway was from.
A study conducted last academic year by Phired Up Productions, a fraternity and sorority consulting company based in Carmel, Ind., ranked Alabama's Greek system as the nation's largest by membership. This year, the campus has more than 7,200 fraternity brothers and sorority sisters.That's a lot of Greek if you ask me. Spending $200 million on Greek house improvements? Well the upswing is that the construction industry does well.
Although this article is a little old, it does show how in some states being a governor is a path to a decent paycheck. Heck, being in Congress pays more. The problem? I think our governors are more important than our Congress. Our governors are state presidents, state executives.
Modesty and beauty pageants don't usually mix, but for the girls who pull it off, hats off to them.
Cuomo has one bill to sign to help out the transit systems in upstate New York. And upstate voters would be indebted to him, at least the ones in the metro areas.
Co-sleeping. Isn't that what Mayim Bialik invented? Just joking, she's an advocate of attached parenting, but co-sleeping falls into that same category. If you're going to co-sleep, be smart about it. And there are some who are just understandably against the practice. And kids need to know that there's no such things as underbed monsters.
Virginia Tech is working on designing new Amtrak stations. As long as they don't look like total crap, that's what matters. Or like the bus station in Monticello.
There are, according to this article, thirty-five things that every couple needs to agree with before getting married. I'll need to run this by my mom. For me, cold pizza is a must, although rare with me. Mayo is the way to go, along with the train.
