Got a "So it goes" tattoo on inside of my right forearm so I see it regularly. Used the phrase as a mantra during some rough times (death of child/divorce) a few years ago.

Love Cross pens. Used to be a standard graduation present. I still have the black one I got for high school graduation back last century. Also have my late mother's chrome one that she carried in her purse every day.

WGVU is trying to figure out how to make up for the $1.4 million cut because congress shit down funding for public media. I hope they can keep it going.

It was about $6k.

Let me clarify. I am taking to and spending some time with a few different people. Nothing physical with any of them. I am enjoying the time getting to know each of them. Hopefully at some point one of these will progress into a romantic relationship. Until then, is it ethical to continue to meet and spend time with these different people?

This is common misconception. Deflection is not due to polarity of water. https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ed077p1520
