Where has Larry Flynt been?

We need a "Karl Rove"......It's time to quit bringing knives to a gun fight...I live in L.A. so I"m actually going to call his office. Why not......

I have a question about what's considered "standard" in today's work

environment: Do employers normally give two weeks vacation after one year? I realize, of course, there are many variables but I'd just appreciate some general feedback. I know a lot it depends on the industry. Let's just say I'm talking about a middle size company in middle america at, let's say, a real estate company....

Can someone direct me regarding getting

satellite radio for my car (or what I'd need for podcasts)? I'm starting a new job on Monday (Yea!!!!) that I'm very excited about. Having said that, it's going to be quite a commute (from Redondo Beach to The Valley). I LOVE good radio, podcasts, etc. so I'm totally okay with the drive. I just need to know what I need to do/get. My car is a 2007 Honda Accord. I know I could google it but I thought someone here might know the first step I could take without me having to reinvent the wheel....Thank you

The Staircase....

OMG! Is anyone watching this? I'm on episode 7. I'm trying to find out the significance of something that has occurred but I don't know which of the past episodes covered this particular subject. I don't want any spoilers but if anyone knows what I'm talking about, would you let me know which of the past episodes to go back to? (I was so upset after watching Rachel break down last night that I just can't watch anymore of the crises that is currently taking place at the border so I'm taking a break from the news)...

Stephen Colbert and children

https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/15/entertainment/stephen-colbert-jeff-sessions-clip/index.html

My representatives are Ted Lieu, Dianne Feinstein, and Kamala Harris. They are already doing EVERYTHING they can do. I used to live in Texas. I wonder if Ted Cruz's office would accept my call (I was born and raised there but have lived in California most of my adult life). I think if one was born in a particular state, we should have some say there too (but that may be stretching it....).....

Has anyone seen Bobby Kennedy for President

on Netflix? I'm watching Sunday Morning now and find myself in tears thinking about what might have been....I was 10 years old in '68 when he was killed.

I ran across the site a few months back and really got a kick out of it...

(There are a lot other bands that kids react to but this is the first one I listened to:

About Upthevibe

I've been a member of DU since the very beginning....after that horrible fiasco - the sElection of 2000. My first user name was Lindsey, then I changed it to Nirvana555, and now it's Upthevibe. I had devices crash and I ended up having to change my user name. I've never been one to make a whole lot of original posts, but I consider myself a very active member in that I come to DU almost every day and read the wonderfully informative threads. I can't imagine what life would have been like over the past two decades without DU!
