David Sirota on Stephen Colbert
I’m reading “The Uprising” now and am hoping to have a review of it online by next weekend.
Car Wash for Eden Park Elementary School
I don’t know about you, but I’m loving all this beautiful weather. The only down side is the ton of tree pollen and other stuff all over my car. What better time than now for a car wash to benefit the education of our Cranston youth! WHAT: EDEN PARK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL 5th GRADE CLASS CAR [...]
