Catholicism has changed tremendously in recent years. Now when Communion is served there is also a salad bar.
New Jersey Mayor Corey Booker last night personally rescued a woman from a burning building. Or as Fox News reported it, 'black man loots house, steals white woman.'

It's an advertising medium. It's a method to deliver advertising like a cigarette is a method to deliver nicotine.
