CarolDM @CarolDM (203396) • Nashville, Tennessee 21 Aug 20

Snapped a few pics of the holly bushes for the backyard. With all the new homes, more privacy is needed along the back of the yard. There are several pines, but more needs to be planted. Have been looking at holly trees. Did not...

My former place of work in Oakland burns down--three dead

The Horse @TheHorse (238325) • Walnut Creek, California 29 Mar 17

I could have predicted this. I was the designated rat catcher for our facility, in addition to being the de facto Director of Child Services. Our mother-and child-drug rehab facility and minimum security women's prison occupied...

How Will JaMarcus Russell Fair When he Plays?

vmenard @vmenard (895) • United States 29 Nov 07

rainbowplayground @rainbowplayground (6) • United States 19 Nov 06
