Yeah, but the restrictions are also getting loosened to fill some of the positions. So we’re getting the people we never thought should be on the police force either 😬 at least that’s the case in Chicago. It makes for a worse experience over time.

Also, the rubber seal for the door, on 3 of the doors, was constantly feel off and could be worn as a second seatbelt.

Near a previously active volcano in Iceland. Now, it’s probably burned from lava, as the volcano is erupting again.

I signed up to run a half marathon. I have never ran that far in my life.

Smithe. It’s Smith with an E. Your source of high quality names.

I prefer the term, “starting from experience” 😏 I strongly agree with you

Another option would be to hire an illustrator and draw up a contract where they may have a small upfront cost, and give them a cut of the sales.

Or you can contact a school and see if anyone would like to do it for free the experience

This was a crucial step in Apple’s journey into becoming a trillion dollar company. Dongles.

It’s a damn shame that you can’t go to a pharmacy in the airport, tell this tale, and get some xanex to zonk out and time travel to your destination.
