a group of prisoners volunteer for a drug-testing program in exchange for a commuted sentence

Probably even in rural Texas.  I can’t imagine it is legal to put holes in other people’s property just ‘cause you think it’s neat.

This is worth $44 billion?

If COVID has taught us anything...

Double a small number is still a small number.

I’m not here to decry boxed mixes. They are fine, easy, and if you like them, great. But if you really like mac and cheese, you should try making it from scratch at least once. It is basically just a mornay sauce with noodles stirred in and you can make a mornay sauce in the time it takes to boil water and cook pasta,…

It is not a coincidence that most of these are college towns.

Second one didn’t bother me, but I didn’t get a flu shot the same day. First one had me in bed by about 7PM.

There is a vaccine. It will knock you on your butt for a day, but shingles sucks, as you know. I got it as soon as I was eligible.

I forgot about that, so it makes more sense. Although you could argue that Reagan’s huge popularity would transfer to the GOP nominee but I’m really just backpedaling to defend my position at this point.
