Quote I

“When it comes to sweet food, whether we see it as an occasional treat or an everyday must, our personality traits are reflected not just in the taste of the food, but the appearance, the smell and that first bite melt-in-the-mouth moment.” Psychologist Jo Hemmings

Quote II

“This is a disaster waiting to happen. It’s already hard enough to vet people who come from places that use non-Roman alphabets. This ‘update’ will now enable people with nefarious intentions to add another layer of complexity to the vetting process by obscuring their sex.” Matt O’Brien, who served as chief of the national security division at USCIS and is now research director at the Immigration Reform Law Institute

Quote III

“Crisis is a good time to build culture. People will remember what you do for them in these moments.” Sara Blakely, Founder and CEO of Spanx

It just isn't our country that has gone off the deep state end.

There is just one way sure fire cure to rehabilitate this individual. Lethal injection.

Kids Ate Cupcakes Tainted By Safeway Sicko
Police affidavit details Colorado man’s vile videotaped activities

APRIL 2--When police searched the home of a Colorado supermarket worker suspected in a series of 20 indecent exposure incidents, they discovered shocking videos showing the man--a registered sex offender--contaminating assorted food products with a bodily fluid, including a special order of cupcakes later consumed by children attending a birthday party, records show.

The probe of Stephen Masalta, 32, is detailed in a court affidavit prepared prior to his arrest last month on dozens of felony and misdemeanor charges. Masalta is locked up in lieu of $250,000 cash bond.

The case against Masalta stemmed from a police investigation into a five-month-long string of lewd episodes outside different coffee shops in Loveland and Fort Collins. A male suspect--wearing a face mask or gaiter--would appear in the predawn hours outside a shop and begin masturbating in view of workers inside. At times, the suspect was seen recording as he exposed himself.

Surveillance video from some of the crime scenes captured a silver sedan in the area at the time of the incidents. A detective concluded that, “the vehicle was a 2015 to 2017 Hyundai Sonata.” A subsequent search of law enforcement and sex offender databases revealed that a 2016 Hyundai Sonata with California plates “was associated with Stephen William Masalta,” who resided in Fort Collins, a city about 50 miles outside Denver.

Did you stand in line at the polls today? The Fabulous and I did this morning. Fortunately, Wisconsin is still somewhat sane when it comes to voter ID.
