That's just awful! But I'm a humanitarian, and willing to sacrifice myself for my fellow Americans. To that end, I will be collecting these bags of money, and taking them to DC myself. That should reduce the risk of exposure to others. Crazy? Maybe. But I am an altruistic patriot, and willing to make this sacrifice for greater good.

It seems the News Capsule is now out of favour.That's a bummer, because over the last couple of years, it's been recommended as a great thing to add your Hubs to keep the content "fresh".As a result, I (and many other Hubbers) have a News capsule on every @##$%^& Hub. That means...

If your friends were willing to reveal their true thoughts about you, would you be OK with that?For example, could you handle hearing that you are arrogant and self-serving, even though you think you are tolerant and open-minded? (Just one example among many.) Mind you, these are...
