I don't watch CBS news enough to get a sense of those reporters who are persons of color who might have taken over.

(24,725 posts)I think Larry Wilmore is doing a really good job. I have a little problem with his voice?
What do you think of Wilmore?

(5,946 posts)that allowed women,we should leave some to the men because men need to be left alone some times. Yeah, they really needed that urinal at the end of the bar so they didn't have to go all the way to the bathroom in the back.
When they allowed women in, I started to go with the guys at work and drinking them under the table conferred special powers to me that translated into raises and promotions. I did draw the line at going to the strip club with them though.

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em?

(5,946 posts)I think it is worth at least a comment.
But I did beat the guys at work after I joined them ha ha ! I drank them sick - see, I was raised on beer been drinking it since I was 7 - not child abuse, just rambunctious and my parents wanted me to go to sleep, no ill effects. It is like my friend raised in France that drank wine with her family, she can drink anyone under the table drinking wine, but one beer and she is done for - well I can't drink wine, but beer is nothing to me. I broke the "all guy line" at work and then taught the women behind me how to do it, like how to drink from 5 glasses at one time, etc. This was early 70's I think.
