I bought none of these. What do I win?  I guess my prize was getting to keep my money....

THANK YOU! I was going to comment the same thing. These chairs/stools are loud as fuck and since people are constantly getting up and sitting down and moving them, and these restaurants are usually big, open, echo-chambers with concrete floors it’s so loud you can’t even have a conversation. I have left restaurants…

It wasn’t my birthday, it was my honeymoon, but I would have happily stood there staring at Kilauea’s lava lake all night if my new husband hadn’t gently detached me from the rail after an hour or so. It’s incredible!

This was delightfully vicious and I am HERE FOR IT.

Yep. My kid still has his factory parts installed and never once fountained at diaper change time.

I’m sorry. Your dad couldn’t figure out that you wanted to do math?

So you had me with the next to last paragraph, but you completely killed me with the final paragraph.

“I’m holding a thermal detonator!”

Trump clearly has no such regard or respect.

Take time to grieve. It’s a traumatic experience, even if it had nothing to do with you personally, you will be emotionally effected.

Make sure to file for unemployment right away. Even if you have weeks of severance your prior employer is paying you. The process to receive unemployment can take some time and it’s easier for the government to not pay you when you’ve filed too early than to try and pay you quickly later.

Call the office of the person you’re voting for. Ask for a ride. They’ll likely have volunteers doing shuttle runs. Quite a few do something like this, but it’s rare that I see it mentioned in the main posts.

For the edification of those not from Southern California, you can read about the history of the Thomas Guide here. My parents had ones for Orange County, and they were worth the money. The only drawback was that nobody had the physical strength to carry both a Thomas Guide and a Sunday Los Angeles Times in their arms!

Me too! (Dec 14). I was exceedingly pleased Ophiucus was included in the article.

This isn’t in the report but every single one of the security detail is a trained lifeguard and champion rower. These were necessary skills due to the anticipated rapid ocean water rise. Pruitt wanted to make certain he was able to paddle away from any major US city.
