A good physical sky atlas is better than an app. Sky & Telescope's Pocket Sky Atlas in either standard or jumbo is great.

Joe Lieberman, my then senator, nixed the public option because he didn't like some of the people who were for it. And, of course, Conn's insurance industry.

Agree on everything. Best wishes to Biden. The % of men who have detectable prostate cancer is roughly the same as their age. It's a matter of whether it's slow or aggressive and moves to other parts of the body.

Having worked most my career in a field with a majority of managers being women, it's not just men who are the jerks you describe. One frequent yeller was known as the dragon.

Could you use the name of the company, Freight Logistics, instead of 'clck to find out' phrasing?
