And no, not just since yesterday's Minneapolis shooting. I didn't realize it was even going on, but evidently in many churches now, it is. As I have said before, I lived for a time in a small town in southern IL. My best friend...

Heather Echola @MarieCoyle Our pastor has had some strange things happen. Also, so questionable people have used the parking lot as a meet up. She once had to call her husband to get off work and show up to deter a persistent panhandler.

Heather Echola I was hoping it would be totaled or that somehow she might not have the money for repairs.

Shame on every GOP Senator who voted to confirm that nut as Secretary of Health and Human Services. He has NO medical credentials. He was a heroin addict with a famous last name who worked as an environmental lawyer. He can't even...

Heather Echola I will bake bacon, or chicken, etc. I do not generally like frying. I like Pizza Ranch fried chicken. Have you ever been there? It is a buffet with fried chicken, and also pizzas, and desserts and salad bar. Great coffee, too.

Just as we suspected, the mother-in-law was at fault for the accident with the semi tractor-trailer. It shows she drifted out of the left lane into the truck in the right lane. That is consistent with the damages to the car....

Heather Echola What she says will probably keep changing on a weekly or daily basis. Just do not get the car repaired. Make sure she has nothing to drive.
