They can’t. When this gets thrown out by courts, the legislature will write a bill that says that private citizens can sue doctors giving vaccines to people... or more properly sue companies that put in place mandates that comply with federal OSHA requirements.

I know exactly what you are talking about with the backing inserted into a mortised edge.

I generally agree with you. But I think if your stock is 1/2 inch or more the glue will likely be strong enough. The picture at the top looks like 1/4 inch basswood or something. Those glue joints are definitely tiny enough to need reinforcing. For the thicker stock, if you had a pin nailer, you could nail into the…

I read that whole thing like the geek I am.

Yep.. my mom taught for more than 30 years in a middle school (and then highschool) in a city that was consistently among the top 5 poorest and top 5 murder rate in the country. When I was in middle school, she and a couple other teachers invited groups of girls to come with us to do outdoor activities (it was usually…

In the Philadelphia area, which doesn’t extend completely to the southern border of the state, but goes quite a bit further west than you’d imagine, we call that area Pennsyltucky. (and we did call it that decades before Orange is the New Black had a character called that)

This sounds like fun. Can I come to your house to shoot candy down the pipe with the air compressor!

Yes to everything you said... but in the best case scenario (a partner who really is committed to bearing 50% of the physical and emotional work of the family) being too critical regarding how things get done can be demoralizing. My path to not being critical/picky was to just turn over all responsibility for a…

The numbers they are pulling out are especially egregious since they already voted to pass the budget resolution containing the full amount for build back better. Then they wanted to have a token bipartisan bill, so everyone agreed to break that off with the prior understanding that it would only be passed if the…

I’m there with you man... and it is a big deal to me (the movie)... I actually told my husband it might get me to a theater again. But probably not. There are theaters here that will rent out a theater for private parties for not an insane amount of money (I think because occupancy restrictions are still in place they…

Good choice. I don’t understand how someone could get more than half way through the first book without planning on reading all the Frank Herbert part of the series. Like.. if you get halfway through, you must like it. After 400 pages you’ve decided you like the story enough and the style of the prose hasn’t sunk…

Due to the layout of my house, I needed a microwave that had a door that didn’t open with hinges on the left. Turns out that is almost impossible to find. So we ended up with a microwave/convection oven combination (though I think you can use it as a plain oven also).

Just as a clarification (that doesn’t really make anything in the overarching story more understandable), two of the men didn’t have their ID with them (and without ID you could be showing proof that someone was vaccinated, not just you).

Let the fire burn isn’t scary. But it is gripping and horrifying, in that way that you will barely be able to breathe, even though it is entirely constructed from broadcast news footage.

I was thinking a similar thing. I’m not sure what it looked like after dad had taken her to the salon (ie how short it was at that point) but after the whole ordeal happened her hair was maybe 2 inches long.

Preface: My grandfather came to the US from Sweden when he was a little kid. If you are swedish and your name isn’t Karl or Eric, it’s weird.

In a only sort of related tip:

So, there are two levels of mental health day. The first is what I think the article is mostly talking about. And for that the making up work part isn’t that big of a deal, given how teaching a class full of kids usually happens.

Ha. After I toast and butter I close it up and rotate top sides once or twice to help evenly distribute the pools of butter in the crannies. If I feel like having a “light” day I sometimes shake a little of the extra butter out of the crevices... usually tiny people could swim in the melted butter pools of my english…

No! The nooks and crannies having different amounts of toastiness (including some of the tips being just a little bit over toasted) is where all the action is at!
