The mayday call made by the ship also seems to have helped. According to several state and federal officials, traffic on both sides of the bridge was stopped after that call came through. The only people left on that bridge were 8 construction workers, 6 of whom are still missing as of 12:20 EDT.

Yep. You can’t really factor the plan price into the final cost since to use the phone on a network, you will need to pay for the network access anyway. Verizon gave me an S24 Ultra for $5 a month for 36 months with a trade in using my same cellular plan. I have no plans on changing plans in the next 3 years, so by…

Yeah, the definition of “1 dimensional” used would have been helpful. From what it sounds like (and what I can find), 1 dimensional is a line of atoms. Two dimensional is a field of atoms only one atom high, and three is fields of atoms stacked on top of each other. Basically, ignore the fact that atoms have 3 spacial…

You are right that you don’t know you are allergic unless you’ve had it before. This warning is for those who have had an allergic reaction to it or similar drugs in the past. It’s probably included for liability reasons.

I thought that too, until I realized that people are way stupider than I think they are.  

The people who balk at “synthetic chemicals” in food should steer clear of dihydrogen monoxide as well.  That stuff is added to almost everything! /s

I tried the zero sugar version last night. It’s....ok? I can’t decide if I hate it or if I sort of like it. At the first sip, the first thing that came to mind was it tasted purple (I don’t have synesthesia).  There were like hints of grape and maybe peaches?  Definitely not something I would by again though.

Never mind that the water would be instantly neutralized and acidified once its hits the stomach’s environment of about pH 2.

“X Corp.” Now it’s all beginning to make sense.  The reason why it seems like a toddler is running Twitter is because it’s being run by Musk’s two year old son, X.

My sister has a flock and it’s just like you said for her too. She lost too many last year to predators, including her lead rooster, and she spends quite a penny on feed too.

And here I thought they were against harming fetuses. You’d think they would want to prevent spontaneous abortions (aka miscarriages). So does this mean they are for abortion now?

I know. When I first heard that a Senator was changing parties, my first guesses were her or Manchin. Good thing the Dems gained a seat this past November or they would have lost the razor edge majority.

I had seen the first trailer in the theatre before a few movies, and I questioned whether this was Disney’s annual big animation release. There was absolutely no hint at a plot and did not pique my interest at all. The second trailer I saw before a recent movie finally showed that there actually was a plot, but by…

Stuff like this pisses me off. I had this fight with my grandfather’s doctors (and my uncle, but that’s a different can of worms) when he was diagnosed with stomach cancer and had to have weekly transfusions because the tumors in his stomach were bleeding. He had been taking Plavix for a stent that was put in 5 years…

My sister absolutely hated cauliflower when she was young. But she loved “white broccoli”.  We almost had a problem when someone asked for the cauliflower at Thanksgiving one year.  Luckily, she wasn’t listening.

I really like how they are gluten-sensitive. They’ve partnered with Udi’s for their GF rolls and they come from the bakery individually wrapped. Then, when it’s time to make the sub, there is a dedicated knife that travels with the sub through the assembly, so that there is minimal cross contamination. They are also tr…

At least his makeup would finally look natural.

As someone who had two cats, one which suffered from megacolon (enlarged colon and chronic constipation), I would have paid handsomely for this. Cat turds in the litter was a welcome sight, but the happiness was dulled when trying to find out which cat left the present. If caught in time, enema treatment for…

My friend and I are AMC A-listers (so 3 free movies a week) and we have reservations for both formats.  It’s going to be interesting seeing how the formats make a difference.

All I want to know is which ones taste most like McDonald’s sausage? I will admit to harboring an intense love of their sausage patties, but I haven’t found a brand (either link or patty) that captures the flavor and slight spice of the original.
