Costco Will Accept Food Stamps at Two NYC Locations
I lost my job, my house with 23 years of equity due to a septic which couldn't be repaired or replaced, and am disabled (got crushed between a car and guardrail and dragged), and broke, homeless and sick. Took forever to get food stamps which were a pittance. Went to Costco as a GUEST and was mortified when my food stamps were rejected. I'm one of the rare ones to get Social Security Disability, and it's less than my meds cost. Then I lost the welfare medical, and food stamps are cut back to $24/month. A MONTH, people. I'm not lazy, a bum, or stupid. I've just had one blow after another. Had heart surgery and got out of the hospital yesterday, just before medical stops on the 31st. I would love to be able to shop at Costco as a guest. Please don't paint all food stamp recipients into the same corner. Jerzee, I love you, but your bullshit was wrong on this one.
New KFC commercial
I walked into the CIA one time and chatted with someone. Damn, I forgot to add that credential to my resume'. I did the same at Princeton (hell, I practically lived there for a few years), The Wharton School, MIT and Drexel. I should have a spectacular resume'!
I had fried something from that chain many years ago and it was all breading. Seriously. Remember the commercial that asked, "Where's the beef?" - well, I was asking, "Where's the chicken?".
I don't know Garvin at all, but Shamdra is pretty and has no food morals, so who better to endorse? It's for grilled chicken, so that's a lot harder to hide - wonder what they can do to chemical it up? I'll be optimistic and hope it's delicious and healthy. Hey, did I hear laughing out there, people????
What's for dinner tonight?
I got to cook tonight. We had grouper and red snapper, rice and a fabulous salad with tons of veggies, tomatoes, bacon and goat cheese. So good!
I just sauteed the fish, but everybody raved. It really was delicious.
I'm with annien - please don't call Jerzee names. Her heart is in the right place. There will always be abusers, but also people like me who fall between the cracks and truly need all the help they can get. I'd like to see those who abuse the system punished.
