I can understand boycotting Pepsi tho. It sucks.
that wasn't an earthquake you just felt....vic and I jusr finally agreed on something!
Nik you have no idea how disappointed I was when upon my very first trip to the historic Wrigley Field, I discovered the vendors were all selling PEPSI products. To this day, I am still boycotting their sodas...
...But I still go to Wrigley 4-5 times a year >_>

it would have made more sense if he clipped his fingernails into the glass of water....or pulled out some eyelashes
using money to make alternative money....
and then how big of a dump does he have stored up to buy almost a hundred dollars of colon cleanse
Yeah, pretty sure none of you are getting Drac's joke still. S'okay, you don't need to go down the homeopathy rabbit hole.

Potency scales
Several potency scales are in use in homeopathy. Hahnemann created the centesimal or "C scale", diluting a substance by a factor of 100 at each stage. The centesimal scale was favored by Hahnemann for most of his life. A 2C dilution requires a substance to be diluted to one part in one hundred, and then some of that diluted solution diluted by a further factor of one hundred. This works out to one part of the original substance in 10,000 parts of the solution.[2] A 6C dilution repeats this process six times, ending up with the original material diluted by a factor of 100−6=10−12. Higher dilutions follow the same pattern. In homeopathy, a solution that is more dilute is described as having a higher potency, and more dilute substances are considered by homeopaths to be stronger and deeper-acting.[3] The end product is often so diluted that it is indistinguishable from the dilutant (pure water, sugar or alcohol).[4][5][6]
There is also the continued flow mode of dilution that is measured on MFC.
Hahnemann advocated 30C dilutions for most purposes (that is, dilution by a factor of 1060).[7] In Hahnemann's time it was reasonable to assume that preparations could be diluted indefinitely, as the concept of the atom or molecule as the smallest possible unit of a chemical substance was just beginning to be recognized. We now know that the greatest dilution that is reasonably likely to contain one molecule of the original substance is 12C, if starting from 1 mole of original substance.

tl;dr - Snipping a tiny piece of a dollar into a glass of water as a means of paying for something expensive is an analogy to the process of diluting substances to increase potency in homeopathic remedies.

DeVos, Sessions Clashed Over Transgender Decision
Quote:
(Newser) – President Trump's reversal of former President Obama's directive on bathroom use for transgender students caused a clash inside his administration, sources say. GOP insiders tell the New York Times that Education Secretary Betsy DeVos clashed with Attorney General Jeff Sessions over the issue and told Trump she opposed the move because of potential harm to transgender students. Trump sided with Sessions, and DeVos eventually signed off on the issue rather than resign or publicly defy Trump, the sources say. In a tweet Wednesday evening, DeVos said she considers "protecting all students, including LGBTQ students, not only a key priority for the Department, but for every school in America."
I recall the sale of black people at one time being the state's decision.
"But peepers!" Funny how the order was in place for most of a year and there were no issues given that was the opposition's foremost concern. (And the transgendered are not considered homosexual although there can be gay/lesbian transgendered people, in case there was any confusion.)
