You should have seen how their free use of locker room promotion went on January 27, which is Auschwitz Liberation Day.

Seriously, some people are too stupid to live in a free society.

The "Amy's Baking Company" of private family run golf courses.

Social media truly is a two edged sword and is capable of doing great damage to those who wield it thoughtlessly.

The course made a terrible blunder........but the Facebook crowd, who continue to make threats, need to calm it down.

Sometimes a facebook post with a link will insert a picture "intelligently" - that is to say, some algorithm will read the link and grab a picture from that site that it thinks matches the link. I wonder if that is something like what happened with Esquire.

I believe Esquire has called this a software "hitch" and supposedly issued an apology. Luckily for America they are liberals, so no big deal.
