It's not an egg LOBBY, it's an egg BOARD, major difference, somehow.

Established by Congress because they had nothing else to do except to rename a post office.

One wonders how many of these things exist out there probably with profuse sinecures for nephews and cousins.
many times, .... I don't even wonder

I feel like beef was what's for dinner before pork became the other white meat. But I could be remembering that wrong. I was like 12.

I'm sure it's been done, but it's not really a "thing" with a traditional chop.

A "boneless porkchop" comes from the center cut of a pork loin. And when sliced a bit thinner, pounded out, breaded and fried; that's a "pork tenderloin" which is a very big midwest thing.

Which is confusing because the actual tenderloin cut of pork exists, and is something entirely different.

You mean a basic breaded and pan (shallow) fried pork chop? Yeah...

And then the pork tenderloin sandwich @iahawk15 mentions which is common in Iowa and Indiana...

When you are in Iowa, from Iowa, and are the world's greatest female basketball player - treat your opponents, Iowa nice.

TV ads today seem ... boring ... to me, granted I pretty much only watch sports and use the mute button most of the time.

PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. (WKYT/Gray News) – A man from Kentucky who won a $167 million lottery prize Saturday was arrested early Wednesday morning in Florida.

According to police, James Farthing, of Georgetown, was taken into custody in Pinellas County after being accused of assaulting an officer.

Farthing bought the $2 Powerball ticket for last Saturday’s drawing and ended up making Kentucky lottery history with the largest prize ever awarded.

He posed for photos with the celebratory check on Monday, but by Wednesday morning, Farthing was arrested.

An arrest citation states Farthing was at a hotel Tuesday night when an officer tried to stop a fight.

One person told officers Farthing punched him during the altercation. The arresting officer said Farthing kicked him in the face and resisted arrest.

Farthing is charged with battery of a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer and battery as well as violating parole.

Farthing was on parole through August 2025 for charges in Kentucky. His court records include convictions of tampering with evidence, engaging in organized crime, drug charges, receiving stolen property and theft by unlawful taking.
