Why do they make a big deal about Cohen being a felon? He's a felon because of the same crime that Trump is on trial for right now!

The bonk on the head to incapacitate. It always works instantly and has no long term implications.

Memento. But first I'd tattoo "Don't trust 'Memento'" on my stomach.

I'm from the Deep South, so I can say this - the name scares me!

There's also a big problem with North Carolina's laws regarding the maintenance of roads. I'm not 100% sure this is the case, but I'd be willing to bet it is. Most other states require developers to get the road certified and adopted by the State Department of Transportation before any homes are sold. In NC, the developer can do this afterward (and they sometimes don't do it at all). Our neighborhood association found this out the hard way. Over ten years after the first house was sold, we called the DOT for a road repair and were told that our road wasn't covered. It was because of one form that wasn't filled out and filed with the State. The crazy thing is that the road is considered a public road (you can't treat it as private) and the state will not maintain it until you get it certified. If your road has degraded in that time, then you have to pay to get it back up to near-new quality before they will take it over.

Now imagine that instead of just a road to repair, it's also a road and a bridge. Is the HOA going to be able to raise the money to pay for a bridge repair? Pay for a proper barrier? This type of basic infrastructure should be handled by the state government.

Side political rant- a bill to change these laws has been in committee for years. I don't think it has ever made it to a vote.

I did the same and went to an independently owned pharmacy. It's been great. The only downside is no Sunday hours and a half day Saturday but that's not a deal breaker.

I had a Commodore 64 as a kid but we couldn't afford the disk drive (it was as much as the computer). I had to settle for a cassette drive. About 15 years later, I was at a garage sale and saw a C64 with disk drive but no cords. I asked the seller if it still worked. He said "For a dollar, does it matter?". Still have them.

My guess would be Mr or Mrs of XYZ Company.

Dolly Parton at the Nashville rotating restaurant (on top of the Sheraton in the 90s). I was having dinner with a friend and just getting to know her better. She was explaining to me how she always runs into celebrities. She carried around an autograph book everywhere she went. We go to leave and Dolly is coming in. My friend gets another autograph. Dolly was very sweet and very short.

Edit: remove extra words

I know this must be a tough transition. I will pray for you.

I loved the 2600 because that was all we could afford when I was a kid. I liked the ColecoVision and Intellivision graphics better though. Luckily, some of my friends had both.

Mlem and WefWef are my favorites so far. I wish WefWef was a 'real' app but it's pretty impressive what they have done in a Web App.

Try a Couch to 5K program. You start off mostly walking and slowly increase the amount of running. There are a bunch of great phone and watch apps. I like Watch to 5K for the Apple Watch (one-time purchase, no subscription).
