I forwarded your comment to Davis, Sandy.
Twenty Questions With Davis McCollum
I can’t remember how I stumbled across the Old Marietta Facebook page months ago, but I was quickly fascinated by the wealth of historical photos [over 8,000 of them] and information about the area where my mother was born. My Butler and Hasty ancestors are from the Marietta Georgia area, and so...

Your first question is perplexing. I have never asked for any entitlements because there are none, not in America anyway. Truly, no person with a limb difference needs any "tax education and other social services" unless they are actually unable to work because of the limb difference. My son has never asked for or received any such benefits, nor will he ever. One missing hand does not qualify him for anything like that, except a 501 for education. He had a 501 plan in school, but it was never needed. It said he might need more time on tests or getting dressed after PE. He prided himself on never needing it and didn't want it, but I got it put in place simply as a precaution. There was nothing financial about it. Since he has finished school he gets nothing monetarily related to his limb difference. No social services -- because he doesn't need them. No disability payments -- because he doesn't need that. You should do a little research before you make such an ill-informed accusation. / I tried to email you privately but the email was returned saying the email account does not exist. Nice.
Missing a Hand is NOT a Disability
I have a young friend in England who is raising his son who has one hand, like my son Michael. We were Facebook chatting this morning and he told me something that makes me FURIOUS. He told me his 10 year old son is not allowed to go on school field trips because the school says he is "too high ...

I love pork ribs but I stopped cooking them because cleaning up all that fat was just gross. You need a little fat or the meat isn't flavorful, but too much and it's yucko. You can always get super lean meat and add in some olive oil, which might be a good solution since you're replacing really bad fat with good fat..
Cooking Beef
All my life I have had a love/hate relationship with beef. There are some ways to fix it that I love (a juicy hamburger) and some ways I hate (most pot roast). My mother loves beef. It goes back to when she was in college and was severely anemic. Beef made her feel a lot better. I am not wild ...
