I don't recall ever playing with mercury, but I certainly remember mercury-based thermometers. Nowadays, of course, thermometers are mostly digital. As far as the insidiousness of "racism and bigotry training" is concerned - yup.
MLB told to ban Number 42? Yup - fake news. A biography of Jackie Robinson no longer on the shelves at the U.S. Naval Academy pursuant to instructions issued by the Pentagon in accordance with the President's Executive Order? Not so fake news. Just unreal.
My son has the same problem gagging on tomatoes although he can do ketchup. I hate the horsestuff, too, although I can take a tiny dab here or there, but it just burns. Only yellow mustard for me. I always pay good attention when ordering any deli sandwich and ask for "yellow" and watch as they make it.
Here's a little something from the archives. It seems even more relevant today.
I’m a Little Despot
I’m a little despot; yes it’s true.
You kiss my rear end, and I'll bully you.
When I get all steamed up, I run my mouth,
praise me now or watch me pout.
I’m a shameless liar, big and stout,
caught up in collusion there’s no doubt.
When they get to know me, people shout:
dump the chump, let’s vote him out!
