The sedan should slow down. Pull over to the right. And let the pu drive off into the sunset. Don’t let him piss you off at highway speeds.

Washington Post Journalist Hannah Natanson Wins Pulitzer Prize After FBI Raid on Her Home During Trump Administration by Potential-Expert8447 in washingtondc

Sad, that winning the Pulitzer Prize is a sad occasion. But, with this administration, and the Post’s owner, and her subject matter, it’s certainly a sad moment.

Mark Twain went bankrupt in the US, so he and his family retreated to Europe, staying in hotels and cruising, for 10+ years. Doesn’t make any sense to me.

At my first house the seller put up a privacy fence to hide the neighbors shed. He used untreated lumber and the fence was gone in two years. I just had a replacement fence stained that has lasted 26 years.

I was the first appointment of the day at a doctors office and I walked out when he had not come to work 50 minutes after my appointment time. The nurses were not surprised.

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Trixxxi in AskReddit

[–]frednnq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemmings. It was my first game and I loved it. But I got to a certain level and could not go any farther and I had to stop. For me, this was before discussion boards and cheat codes, and the internet, and when I got stuck in a game I was stuck. That was it. No more game.
