My nickname when I went to Cornell.

I had a similar situation, and even if I left out a bowl on the porch, the kids would look but keep walking. Finally figured out that some neighbors had shared a link to my Megan’s Law profile on Nextdoor.

I can’t believe there are more than 2000 of them!

Peanuts are produced by plants. Give credit where it is due. So much animal-centered thought in these parts!

That was the spirit in which it was intended.

I don’t like your ideology.

Good grief

I was expecting the video to be of someone eating a fruit.

So what you wrote before was not what you meant. You meant because they deceptively market themselves, they aren’t a thrift store, charity, or non-profit.

I don’t know enough about Goodwill to be able to judge that. I’m only saying that charities selling goods, even donated goods, at market prices to raise money for their cause is not at odds with their status or necessarily their mission.

They’re non-profit because the profit isn’t their focus - they have a specific mission. They’re a charity because they use the money they raise for a social cause. It’s free market because they set prices based on the buying behavior of the public. When they price too high, more of the public decides not to buy or buys elsewhere.

It can be all three.

Free market in action.

I would just get there by castling. But how to get back?

No Dothraki?

I think that it has gotten substantially worse in the last 10 years, but I don’t have hard data.

At first I thought it was just a festival phenomenon, where people present might not be particularly interested in that act. But it happens at individual band shows, and not just during the opening act.

Are people more self-absorbed? Or have ticket prices ironically meant a higher percentage of filthy rich people in attendance who don’t care all that much?

In the case of the prince, he is on the run so changes emails often. Perfectly normal.

I don’t think I ever saw that!

Thanks, Sen. Tom Harkin.

Where did the mulatto coffee get its name?

Theaters here ask people not to text during the movie. It’s not about sound distraction, it’s a bright, visual distraction.
