I used to start the day with optimism and a coffee . . ..Many of our grocery store chains are doing this across Canada.
7:00-8:00 AM for seniors and disabled. Bonus-we get the freshly stocked shelves.
Also promised no price gouging.
Now I start the day with a coffee and ask "What the hell is next?" . . ..
The worse it gets the more I'll ride!

Being an ex Brit that has lived in America for a long time, most Brits don't know what Ebonics is.Mel46 wrote:It was a casualty a long time ago. Heck, I have heard that 'Ebonics' is going to be the next big thing in English classes. I also know that there are some high schools that are turning out graduates who can't read and write proper English. These same graduates get turned down for jobs because they don't "represent what the business wants as personnel who interact with the public."
