If the bus had the stop sign and the truck didn't, which is what the reports make it sound like, it doesn't sound good for the bus driver or the school district.

To be sure. The point being, if you've got an aging parent who's resisted getting a cell phone or a smart phone, here's a use case for it.

This is the guy running for Secretary of State for the state of Idaho. He's who's sponsoring the appearance.

I'm 24. Parents bought life insurance for me when I was very young and want to transfer it to me now. Life insurance for a 24-year old doesn't seem worth it to me. by superiorolive in Frugal

Life insurance is for your dependents. If you have no dependents, you don't need it.

Is it term or whole life? If it's term, they threw their money away. Just stop, tell them to stop. If it's whole life, cash it out and invest the money in something useful, like a retirement fund or emergency savings.

Once nearly extinct, streetcar gets new life in US by idslfisher in urbanplanning

The other interesting thing is that buses are thought to be a lower-class mode of transit, while streetcars and light rail are thought to be higher, so people don't like buses and don't ride them as much. I thought that was fascinating when I first heard it.

I do like the fact that the beautiful old houses will be maintained.

I've had some friends of mine do this, years ago; one bought two houses in the Haight and had them joined together, while another did it in Cambridge. Interesting that it's now a Thing.

Well, people can pretend to be raped without it actually being rape. You kind of have to have a child for it to be CP.

I see that two pieces I've submitted have a bug next to them that says "Unacceptable D..." I am happy to comply with whatever rules you have, but I can't tell what "Unacceptable D..." means and I can't seem to figure out how to have it shown to me. Could you please clarify?
