I think disgraced Congressman would be more accurate.

Technically once you have been sworn in as a Congressperson you are able to keep the title for your entire life. It is accurate to refer to a former Congressman as "Congressman Foley" or "Congressman Weiner" regardless of the circumstances. Similarly, once they receive a promotion, they can accurately be referred to by that title. Once they have become a committee chairperson, you can refer to the person as "Chairman/Chairwoman" 20 years later. This continues up the chain..."President Carter..." etc.

I think once you have tweeted your junk, disgraced is also correct.

I always understood protocol to dictate that the title may be restored only after death, but that while alive it is "former-President Carter," "ex-Governor Romney," etc. I almost never hear that followed, though.

Big fan of the new Mango Pineapple Smoothies at McDonald's. Their desserts keep getting better and better.

They need more McFlurry flavors, they cut back to M&Ms and Oreos, and I cant stand M&Ms in ice cream and Oreos are just okay. Bring back Reese's McFlurrys.

They have Rolo McFlurrys now by me.

 

And their smoothies are pretty good but they're kinda expensive

I gave that flavor a try, and the rolo pieces were dissappointing but they added more caramel in the mix and that was delish. Still, Im a peanut butter and chocolate guy (moreso chocolate), so Im still demanding they bring that back.

M&M's are the best Mcflurry/Blizzard item IMO. I love the rainbow colored streaks in my ice cream with the delicious crunch.

Oreo Blizzards over everything.

 

I feel like I'm eating rocks when eating M&M blizzards. Doesn't matter anyway since I'm lac-tarded.

If people have a minute, please help!

 

 

One of our local teachers is in a Pepsi contest to win $10,000 for her class to put a library in. Vote at this link and text 106604 to 73774. Elston is currently in 17th place, and the top 15 get funded, so your vote would help a ton! This is a great teacher, who really wants to do right by kids in a school with about an 80% poverty rate.
