How many Deep, Dark, Secrets are you keeping https://www.studyfinds.org/keep-two-secrets-from-everyone/

Glad to see the Taylorsville couple charged with murder are now in custody. It baffles me how they eluded arrest for 6 months. We’ll learn a lot more. It could end up as a TV Documentary. Now, let Justice be done

Quote of the Day: “Tell the truth, work hard, and come to dinner on time”… Gerald R. Ford (Born this day in 1913)
