Fluoride Conspiracy: Harmful or Helpful?
"You know what they put in the water don't ya, fluoride on the pretext that it strengthens your teeth. That's ridiculous. You know what this stuff does to you?

Here's a few highlights of my favorite things to do when I visit my family. Lightening bugs also…Read more Musings on the Midwest
