RE: Crosswords

I disagree with the order for fiction. I think you should read the story through first and get your initial reaction to the story without spoiling any twists or surprises. After that you should do the close reading and identify the details that make the story work.

First, they need to be able to sit down and watch a 2 hour movie at home without getting up and running around or whining.

I think the issue with workout clothes is that many of them are treated with chemicals to reduce odor and that gets washed out with regular detergent.

I think you just invented sponge cake.

Interestingly, Barq’s from the Coke freestyle fountain is caffeine free.  I think I’ve read somewhere that all fountain Barq’s is caffeine free but I couldn’t find that just now.

I hope that was supposed to be a joke.

I assume your sim time was in a more complete simulator than some geek sitting at their gaming workstation, though.

I was poo-pooing the Surgeon General’s report, not this article.

Four of these are just different ways of saying, “Go meet people”. If it was that easy we wouldn’t be lonely. This is like telling obese people to “just eat less” or depressed people to “just cheer up”.

The conspiracy people that I know are all Christians. However, I don’t know any UFO people.

I don’t know about sardines and kippers but Mackerel and Salmon also contain mercury. Pretty much any long lived fatty fish contains mercury.

I would suggest that if you bought the washer and dryer and supplied it with the apartment then it is your responsibility when they break.

I’m thinking using the ratio: keto vanilla yogurt, cocoa powder and cream should get about the same thing.

You probably shouldn’t think of your house as an investment. You should think of the house you live in in terms of its utility vs its costs. If you’re lucky, your house will appreciate enough to keep up with all of the expenses involved and you will end up living effectively rent-free over the period that you own the…

I find this essay a bit ironic because it seems like every health food tries to get it’s flavor from red peppers, which I hate, or onions which I merely dislike.  So, I agree that “the meals can be a little one note” and this is the note.

In my supermarket they’re in the produce section, but be prepared, they’re very expensive.
