Maybe you’ve never been on an airplane but at least for now there are still , seat backs separating the persons in front of and behind. They’re not backless stools with just air between them. And a seat belt keeping my dog from leaping over the seat back. Maybe if she really, really tried she could get her snout…

I just watched the trailer and while not my kind of movie, it looked solid for what it was. Surviving the Game (- Iced Tea*) with the blood and violence amped up to The Purge levels. Because Purge level violence sells. 

Really? Because the fact that I said I’d put her in the windows seat (so she wouldn’t have to sit next to anyone but me) indicates that I do understand not everyone wants to sit next to my dog

Where did that come from? Where did I say that?

Hi!

She’s part pit, so she will try to kiss you should you show her any attention. 

My pit bull type dog wants to know why we can’t just buy her a seat on the plane. She wears a seat belt in the car so buckling up won’t be an issue. I’ll give her the window seat so she won’t have to sit next to you.

Women tend to negotiate less because society perceives their negotiating differently than men and often penalizes them for doing so.

Don’t be so sure. In female dominated fields such as nursing, men still make more than women.

As could RBG, both physically and mentally, and she’s in her 80s.

Have you watched Orange is the New Black? It’s probably even more women centered and absolutely about trying to keep ones humanity in the dystopia that is America’s prison industrial complex. And while some of the seasons were uneven, none were as tedious as half the episodes were this season. Elizabeth Moss is better…

Absolutely worth the watch.

I suspect that would be a hard lawsuit to win. And Dayton happened on the street so even harder. Historically, victims have had to pay with some things covered by GoFundMe. But with multiple mass shootings a week, the public isn’t going to be able help all the many victims .

I know Julie Louis Dreyfus is going to win best actress yet again for VEEP (which I love) but Catherine O’Hara really should win.

Arguably a strong US dollar is good for the US consumer and the economy because such are large percentage of it is based on buying cheap crap we don’t really need. Certainly not good for manufacturers, farmers and anything being exported which are the groups the trump tariffs are supposed to help by bringing back…

Beef-on-weck > Chicken finger sub (if I’m going to get heartburn from Jim’s it’s gotta be a Diavlo).

Except for Montreal. Slightly different but also excellent bagels.

I’m heading to Glasgow next month and I’ve got to say none of those seem very appealing. Some pakora and chips, sure, but that’s just a bit to much fried for me.

I have an android whereas most of my family and many of my friends have iphones, so you won’t see me using facetime in public. I try to limit most of my communications to text but I think people should have the option.

This is America. Not only won’t they get counseling, the people who got shot but didn’t have health insurance (and even many of those who had insurance) are going to to end up owing thousands - possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars - for their emergency medical care.
