I once had a very awkward moment with a good friend courtesy of the USPS because I thought I hadn’t been invited to his wedding shower. Fortunately I’m obnoxious enough that I asked if I could come as a different friend’s plus one, and the whole thing got sorted and I attended the party. The invitation was eventually delivered…just in time for their first anniversary.
I know my phone tracks my movements. I actually find that comforting. If something happens to me, as long as the phone is in my pocket, my family can find me. I know some people don’t like it, but they could always just not have a cell phone. You can still get landlines installed. I know because we just bought a house and the internet guy asked if we wanted one. (we did not)
I’m currently in an orthopedic boot for a torn ligament and I stepped on a lego this morning in my boot with all my weight and the darned thing didn’t even crack. I was both impressed and thankful I didn’t step on it with my other foot!
Years ago I heard an interview on the radio with one of those Victoria Secret Angel girls. She told the interviewer that you have to be super careful of bloat before a runway show and her prep routine involves no solid food for 72 hours before the show and no liquids at all the day of the show. The very next day she was interviewed again, but this time she explained that she “misspoke” and that she adheres to a very strict nutritional regimen at all times. It could not have been more obvious that she got in trouble at work for admitting she didn’t eat or drink so her abs would look perfect.
The first amendment doesn’t protect hate speech. Well, not at the moment anyway. But with our current scotus I’m sure we’ll toss that pesky ruling soon.
I guarantee you there are neo-Nazis in the United States Armed Forces. I don’t think that’s a valid reason for another country to start bombing our maternity wards. They’re two separate issues, and the second one is kind of bigger than the first one, so that’s the one we are paying attention to right now.
The oxford english dictionary says manse ALSO means “a person’s house or home.” You have to read the WHOLE definition, not just the first part that has a little (1) next to it.
