Please excuse the lateness of my reply. Medical professionals should start asking the patient questions. If the patient is conscious and compos mentis, there is no reason to involve the support person — family member, health care aid, chauffeur, whatever.

We used to make a similar recipe that replaced the raisin bran with chow mein noodles (crunch!) and added marshmallows for their stickiness.

Holiday dread? More than I want or need. I don’t celebrate the religious holidays of Christmas and Easter, though I do benefit from time off. Aside from that, it’s a common question, “What are you up to this weekend?” The only member of my immediate family I intentionally see is my widower father. The siblings, well,…

Off course it was a tired ass version; she’s stilling singing the same old song. Had it been updated or at all innovative, Ingraham might have made the list with Ms. Teigen.

Best vacation auto-response I’ve received:

Why would someone who invested years and hundreds of thousands in education throw it away? Positions of power and authority, such as being a prescribing medical professional, attract sociopaths.

There has been a long standing exchange, Cuban doctors working in Venezuela in exchange for oil. But colonization? Wuh what?

Reinstating a blockade holds the door open for China to continue its investments and influence 90 miles from US shores. Well done!

Or you know, do “The Full Assange” and rather than merely throw the turd, smear it on the walls. Voilà — l’art!

I think this recollection is mistaken. ‘Twas so bad after the Starr report was released and impeachment in the House that Clinton didn’t even put himself forward in the primaries as a candidate for the nomination of the Democratic Party. Sad Tragic, really.  /s

I had to go look at the Indiana graphic. Upon re-reading your original comment in this thread, my thought was, “Of course Anne & her Puffed Sleeves would like Indiana’s!”

Thanks for the links to Hyperakt (design firm) and to Underconsideration’s.

You might enjoy another designer’s review of the Buttigieg visuals on The Bulwark. The opinion is more favorable that those reported above and offers a more thorough look at the overall image and at the details, including customization by state.

Here’s another designer’s more complete and more positive review of the logo on The Bulwark. The post/article displays a number of variations by state. Yes I do know its a neocon site; it is, however, run and staffed by never-trumpers.

Sure but Loughlin is still stupid enough to hire or authorize a spokesperson whose statement damages the reputations of herself, her husband, and her daughters.

The fact that a parent thinks a child is too stupid to get into college is a family matter. Bribing university officials to get the kid admitted takes the family matter outside the family by a little bit.

How stupid is it not to take a plea deal from a federal prosecutor when there’s email & text messages and call transcripts as evidence in your indictment? No surprise then that the Loughlin-Giannulli loin fruit needed to cheat to get in their chosen college. An apple doesn’t fall far from its tree.

Not enough stars; under-appreciation and/or failure to recognize jazz lyrics oughta be a crime.

Start ‘em early. With some initiative they’ll meet or exceed the talents of a brother-sister combo I knew who attended different schools. He signed her forms and late/absent notes and she signed his.

Objections to M4A, in other words: I reserve the right to pay extravagant medical insurance premiums and — in all likelihood — for my insurer to deny me medical care based solely on the whims and caprices of some back-office paper-pushing desk jockey who has rejected the professional recommendation of the trained and…
