Yeah, it's like a Michael's crossed with a Walmart. I welcome any excuse to not walk into one ever again.
So many jokes here, but I'll take a different road.
I never go into a craft store anyway, I've thought about it though to get stuff for my kid that she may light to do here after a bit. But I'll probably just order what I want from Amazon. Like this:
(I'm aware that she's too young for this still, but I've been thinking about getting a kit anyway...)

I actually loved those things as a kid, but I don't remember where they came from.

Eh, I've akready done some art stuff with my daughter, for sensory development.
Foot painting was fun! :)
Discovery bottles are also pretty cool.

They're apparently called Perler Beads, guessing that's a brand name.

That and some sticky magnet strips and woo, cheap fridge decorations.
@Kara: Yeah, I need to work more on that stuff, I'm hoping I'll have her some this weekend.

In defense of Fox News, Bill O'Rielly is about as close as you can get to Zacharcy Comstock without a fleet of Zeppelins and a transdimensional daughter.

Awesome, lectures on sustainability by a Venture Capitalist. That's like taking a lesson in surgeon's ethics from Joseph "Mangle Me Good" Mengele.

EDIT: LoL stupid T-Mobile ;/ Anyhow!
This is one problem with breaking up the state. However, I think this benefits West California quite a bit. There's pros and cons to this. I guess we'll see what voters have to say in 2016.

From what I've read recently, the idea of dicing up CA isn't really new, right? I put that on the same tier as the idea of Texas secession and all the hub-bub over CO divvying up.

Yeah it's been thrown around the CA political table for a while now. The Bay area, Silicon Valley and the Los Angeles area stand to gain the most, whereas other parts of the state stand to suffer quite a bit.

There has always been talk of splitting into 2 states but the 6 way split that is being proposed won't get through the house and senate due to how it creates imbalance in the electoral vote in the form of 12 Senators from the region instead of 2.
would affect the power that smaller states currently have.

Here we go, let CA split up, and reunite VA (not sure if the rest of VA wants to be associated with WVA though, could be a toss up).

They tried once. Didn't make it though. The "Jefferson" natives would actually set up at the supposed borders of Jefferson to stop and hand out literature and a declaration of secession to those passing through. IIRC
EDIT: The original proposed state of Jefferson would've also taken a small part of Nevada, this isn't pictured above.

I think if they can address the potential electoral vote imbalance this might be a good idea. They need to spit out some figures on how it would impact county and state programs to the particular state.

Seems the potus needs a vacation from all the vacationing he has been doing.

Good thing the country is problem free. Enjoying it's highest diplomatic standing overseas in decades and has a massive surplus, otherwise this may be considered a dic move.

I wish we could break up MA into various parts too, either that or reunite all of NE!

I don't see the problem here. The more time Obama spends away from doing presidential duties, the better off we'll be anyway.

Political debates get heated and are meant to be intense, if you take offense to being called or proven wrong, you don't belong here.
If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen; if you prove you can't handle the criticism you bring upon yourself in this thread, you may be removed from it. You are responsible for what you post.
Along those lines, heat is fine, but sustained, clearly personal hostility is not okay. The personal attack rules still apply. Attack positions, not posters. Failure to adhere to this will result in your removal from the thread.
