When my daughter gave me a vape pen, I realized that I could relegate it to where I needed it to be. And I would talk to my older grandkids in their 20s, and they'd say they use weed to stop cramps.

But then she was gone. And only after I'd been filled up by her, by that day, did I understand how empty I really was.
Gayle FormanFolks, let me ask you a question about that. You voted in 2010, 2014. You're part of the Tea Party and you show up and you just vote. Republicans said they needed the House, and you gave it to 'em; then they said they needed the Senate, and you gave it to 'em. Do you feel like winners even after those two elections? Probably not, because you really didn't think the Republican Party was going to change their stripes and start acting on all this.

And if Reverend Pelham was the kind of company God preferred to keep, well, I just hoped they'd be happy together.

Saying, 'Be thou cast into the sea,' we will march on. Soldiers of Jesus! Never surrender!
