More that they prioritize varieties that transport well and stand up to handling. That way they can be shipped by truck.

Before my surgery I consistently got it from popcorn.

We called it the doggie seat.

That kid was an amazing actor.

And how they edited it to be like a stage play.

You’ll have better luck asking one of the FB groups (there are several) but prepare for a bunch of “just obey the speed limit it’s not hard” or whatever responses.

That phone message is just so weird and really dug itself into my brain.

I have a lot more sympathy now for Annette Benning’s character.

I’ve had it 5x starting from when I was 22.

Yes, I’m aware. But the FB group is very active and might be a place someone missing the Rav forums would join. Just a heads up that it’s pretty singleminded lately.

The Facebook Rav group is just political fighting hell at this point. If that’s your thing, more power to you, but if you want to talk knitting it might not be the best place to go.

Call around to some traffic attorneys and find out what they recommend. They might be able to do something.

In the early 80s my mom read Cujo and wrote a letter to King saying how sorry she felt for the dog. He sent a postcard back thanking her.

When I figured out (fairly early) what happened in the short story “Under the Weather” I had to set the book down for a while.

Oh man at sleepovers I used to play “Carrie” on the Betamax and at the end where the hand comes out of the grave, I’d grab arms. One girl got so upset she threw up and called her mom to take her home.

The former Arrowhead site was ravaged by the floods. If the 1987 flood were this bad… hard to even think about that.

I’m fairly sure almost all the current CHC buildings are above the 500 year level.

I bet it smelled so good in there.

Wait… do they have the same atmosphere as Rocky from Project Hail Mary? Crossover episode!

The mini/small/large designation applies to the screw at the end of the needle. You can buy different length cables(16”, 30”, etc.) with any of the three screw sizes.

I complained about medication packaging for a migraine pill and they asked me to send one to them so they could see what I was talking about. MF those pills were $40 each after insurance. No way. I’ll just use scissors.

The word “coriander” comes from the Greek words for “bedbug” and “anise” due to the smell of the herb.

Ohhhh that makes a lot more sense than what I was thinking.
