I admired Secretary Pete for going on Fox. He was masterful and I think you are just as smart and quick witted. If you try it you may have to put down some boundaries but educating people about their bodies is vital.

Exactly. They are not sending their best. I mean back in the day were their not snakes involved as well?
I blame the home school system for not teaching the basics, there must have been some sort of budget cut. I think it's Obama'S fault.
(wish there was a sarcasm font)

If the Orange One boasts success you know it has been an abject failure...because he is incapable.
I think someone told him the bombs had an expiry date so he should detonate them and buy new ones.

Do you have any friends in Ortho? They are good with glue that works in moist spots and strong clamps. They are also mindful about not introducing microbes into the repair.

As an ICU nurse I had no street cred when I joined the palliative team.
They failed to understand that ICU is PC on steroids moving 100 mph.
I was shocked how slow time moved in oncologic and cardiac PC.
Keeping humanity in the ICU is vital even at 100 mph. Congrats.

We hate it but we let Bush Jr in... post DUI problem.
Besides the Orange Problem has a man crush on Carney because he hobnobs with the big money people. Watch his body language keeping his head low like he does with the Russian Problem.

Babies used to die in the first year of life. Your job as a parent is to prevent this if possible. Grandparents like this care not. I had to learn and comply with
Back to sleep
No blankets, or bumper pads in cribs
That was the price of admission. When we know more we do better.

Happy birthday. As a Canadian I do have a king but respect your freedom from royalty. Sign up to save my mother's homeland.

Also not making g sunken living rooms, steps up and down everywhere. Design homes with aging or disability design like wider doors.

The villans that create the pain to drive people to use and the organized criminals that provide a steady stream of unregulated and unsafe product deserve the scorn heaped on those who fall prey.

They would be very upset that Christopher Columbus likely sailed with a boatload of Jewish people fleeing the Spanish Inquisition and Abe Lincoln was also likely a member of the tribe.

Safer solution is to dip the brush in molasses/treacle and let him wonder. Nothing more scary than a brown toothbrush.

I think some of us of a certain age remember Wolf Blitzer reporting from under his hotel room table in Bagdad and Anderson Cooper in dangerous storms(which he still does but he made it a thing)
How far they have fallen.

That is exactly the reason that kept me in school, the thought that my colleagues at my summer job had peaked in high school and this job was the best they could hope for. They were women discussing what a waste my education was because I would quit and have babies.

After 6 weeks of casting they took it off and I camped out at the Fracture Clinic early next morning begging to have it back on. Took 12 weeks to settle. Miserable.

I am retired and my grocery slaves have families of their own. I buy huge stock up in Oct/Nov so I do not have to shop often in snow. In nice weather dry goods stock monthly fresh weekly. I used to crash it all in 90 min but now old and methodical.

I do kinda like the idea that the club is a massive sausage fest.... just like a MAGA dating app.

OCD packs one way neuro diverse another. Bags based on destination. Deep freeze together. Fridge, ie dairy,eggs, deli. Produce heavy on bottom light/tender on top. Pantry staples. Bathroom stuff.
Freezer and fridge unpack first. Have a coffee, put the rest away organizing cupboards at leisure.

Something to consider. Your brain learning/retention speed is the same as handwriting speed. So if you want to learn something well write notes. Word process it after and use the tools of spell check and enjoy the ability to edit. The learning ...write it.

Trying to figure out how many footnotes were going to be on a given page and leaving enough room at the bottom.
All of the punctuation in that footnote
The bibliography nightmare where you cannot find the citation at the top of your notes.
Erasable bond was the only way I got through.

I learned it is who delivers the message. Somehow ex playboy model Jennie McCarthy is more relatable than what they consider a pencil neck geek in a lab coat for vaccine info.
It was jocks/cheerleaders vs geeks in high school and nothing has changed. Tribal thinking encodes early.

You could salvage the leg AND treat the diabetes. Easier to learn embroidery than a surgical fellowship.

True, we had surgeon who was convinced that if you had dirt between your toes and brought in by police you were more likely to survive. He was worried when he had sweet lovely souls as patients.

Ships originally due for Seattle from China have landed in Vancouver Canada.
I think the cargo will make it there eventually but the shipping and tarrifs will be brutal. China is messing with you.

Goes further back. During the golden calf episode it was the women who knew not to make the calf. Men took their jewelery. For that reason Jewish women get an extra sabbath day per month and very few things required such as studying Torah. They are exempt because they got the lessons early.
