Before After This is a customer's idea of a Christmas decoration. They put this single camel in their front yard. No lights, no tree, no manger. I wanted to show the before and after of my phone editing and enhancing the image. A podcast I was listening to played this song. I wanted to...

I wish I had learned to play an instrument or to sing. I watch this videos often in envy.

This conversation took a turn and I am here for it. 🍿

The New York Giants field goal kicker used to be with the Atlanta Falcons. Younghoe Koo started out good. They let him go earlier this season. If you were watching Monday Night Football you probably can see why. 🤣 It's pronounced Youngway not Young ho. FYI

I want to question this guy's Americanism. He speaks American but it sounds funny. He's right about the map, so he's clearly an American homeschooled in America by true American patriots. 🇺🇸

I'm sorry to hear that. War is horrific. I would never wish it on anyone. I hope your father had a good life in spite of his injuries.

200 years. I wonder what the US would be like if we could have made that claim. Your statement confused me a little. You were drafted into the military? Was that in anticipation of going to war? Is it like Israel and a mandatory service? My father was drafted but didn't go to Vietnam...

Ulfgeir, is it common in Sweden for people to thank those in the military or veterans for their service? Do you know if it's common in other European countries? Why does no one thank educators or daycare workers for their service? Why does no one thank nurses or other medical services people for...
