The pro-homosexual writings of Bill White from 1998. Since one can not change their sexual orientation, one must assume Bill White is still homosexual today. What makes this ironic is that Bill White just joined the neo-nazi NSM movement which bars homosexuals. But I guess they are so desperate for members, they'll take queers. Now if Bill White didn't publish so many stories on homosexuality, we wouldn't care. read full story / add a comment

I just want other peoples opinions, my local mace store have promotions, e.g. two for a reduced price or whatever, but these goods are charged at full regular rate at check out. Most people don't complain so i guess it goes smoothly and profitably.

To my shock this morning I complained, having being overcharged on at least one item each weekend for three weeks now. I bought surf breeze 1.1 kg, marked 2.69 on shelf, but 3.80 at till, complained after going back and checking, received a refund for the difference, but , to my amazement, that was it, no changes were made to till system, so the next person who picks up a box will be charged 3.80.

In a time when many people don't check receipts for small items, it is these little, ongoing rip offs that frustrate me. So please let me know if this policy is being practiced elsewhere, or just here. read full story / add a comment
