Was the phone left in a bag? In some meetings like this it is typical for one or more persons to record the proceedings. Could this be the case? Regardless, this makes the administrator seem unsympathetic, incompetent, and apparently conspiring to purposely discredit this child and do additional harm.

I initially balked at the idea of spending $75k on a credit card, however, I suppose that if I used it to cover most/all of our living expenses for the year it might work out. Though this is likely more useful for people who travel extensively for work/pleasure through the year...

True - thank you - I will take a look!

I sear before and then place in the slow cooker. Then I pre-cook my onions and garlic in the fat that remains, then deglaze and add that to the slow cooker with the other veggies and seasonings.

Farmers Markets have better prices, and you may even be able to get a fresh cut or a whole tail for a lower cost per pound. Also, I don’t understand the point of bay leaves or why they exist...maybe it’s just me. Great article!

Are there any meal subscription services that are suitable and affordable for a family of four? Or is that market designed for singles and couples?

From your experience, is the reward worth the risk? I don’t work in your industry so I’m genuinely curious. If such behavior from the company is par for the course, how can the industry sustain itself by treating workers so poorly?

Very true.

I must admit that I was extremely disappointed to see him in the film and to be reduced to such a small role despite being essential to the rescue mission.

As much as I love Liam and believe he is secretly a genius, I hope that he leaves the rest of the family behind along with Fiona. Provided that she isn’t killed off. If she leaves for a better life and leaves her youngest and most vulnerable brother behind, then she’s back to being a trash human being. Other musings:

Re: Molly and Dro - I hate this pairing but I love the BFF back and forth they do. They work best as really good friends. Even the argument and Dro’s clipped response “Yep.” felt/sounded like the type of thing feuding friends would say and made me laugh out loud - to my wife’s dismay. He’s still an ass though.

Eh, I bought a 7+ last year and it is still in perfect condition. Maybe next year?

Doesn’t Naomi identify herself as Haitian-Japanese?

Maybe. Time also depends on terrain. On work days I walk my office campus and log just over 3.5 miles in an hour just walking mostly on sidewalks and through parking lots. On non work days I either hit the treadmill or go to a nearby park where I log 4.5 miles in just over 1 and a half hours. In this instance I walk a…

Funny thing is, my Luther Spotify playlist is “Never too much Luther”

Much better benefits than Best Buy. They (BB) will hire you part-time, give you just shy of full-time hours, sometimes in 12 hour shifts, no benefits, no commission, mandatory metrics and mandatory training (that often must be completed on your own time), while spouting anti-union rhetoric at team-building morning…

“Home-movie sales propelled it into the hearts and minds of folks everywhere.”

I’m from Atlanta. I thought this was clear as day.

“I own The Five Heartbeats on VHS tape and DVD, and when I’m bored, I start singing “Nights Like This (I Wish Raindrops Would Fall)” and when I’m feeling froggy, I perform the “A Heart Is a House for Love,” the a cappella, talent-show winning version, by myself in perfect five-part harmony. My love is real.”

Very true. Even for established, big name artists, the percentage they profit from “album” sales and streaming is minuscule compared to what the record company keeps (production, promotion, distribution, etc). Especially considering that record labels tend to front expenses at sometimes inflated prices and then recoup…
