Thank you for beating the Yankees.

My university hospital here in Japan charges for parking as well, but a follow-up visit will put you back.
ÂĄ2,200 + ÂĄ300 for parking.
Or $17.39 USD.
There’s also free bicycle parking, a subway station, and a bus stop so driving isn’t necessary.

Agreed on the Oxford comma. My most common comment to trainees who I mentor when reading their manuscripts.
“Embrace the Oxford comma. Precision matters in scientific writing.”
Only the dim ones skip it on the rewrite.

I think there are like 3 boomers in a diner in Iowa who are really happy with DOGE and are on their way to the Council Bluffs Tesla dealership to trade in their F150s just as soon as they finish their bottomless cups of coffee.

The Netflix series made me dislike her a little less, but she’s still someone I love to root against. Strong Evil Empire vibes.

When I was in middle school my uncle told me Bob Stanley was his 2nd cousin & I repeated that lie until one time at a family reunion I mentioned it & my uncle said, “what are you talking about?” Only then did I realize he’d been having a laugh at the expense of his gullible & eager Sox fan nephew.

No worries at all. Perhaps another time.
Enjoy!
