Georgia’s last decade wasn’t half bad.  New laws effective January 1. I, for one, won’t miss Gary one bit. Yesterday was a monumental day in history. What is Boxing Day, really? Your handy list of 2019’s global protests. Do parallel universes exist?  Karl Marx gets the Confederate memorial treatment. Fitting, this tribute is.

Something yummy for your holiday buffet!  The market is on fire! (Not that big media is telling you, though.)  They are coming for your inhaler. Cool space stuff!

Avoid these pocketbook-draining speed traps. Not the Onion, or Babylon Bee.  This is real, and icky.   Oh, the horrors!  How will we be able to get our avocado toast?   The “real-time” fact check.  Snort. Adults in the room would be a nice touch, for once.  It’s always do as I say, not as
