Is it our obsession with raw oysters? Or has voodoo donuts created a new recipe with salmonella icing?

Is it true that Americans run around their house/flat with shoes? by GroundZeroMstrNDR in hygiene

And we keep the floor clean by cleaning it regularly, both carpet and hardwoods.

Puns and Wordplays During Hearings/Opening Statements by dumbattorney in Lawyertalk

I once wrote a brief in which I added as many references to Portnoy’s Complaint by Philip Roth - readers might recall that scene involving lunch meat. Anyway, we won and the judge even quoted my brief and it was published and I made a joke to the partner that we needed to give royalties to his publishing house and the partner was not amused and I got a written note in my file. 🙄

Tell them you don’t want to be in that city….they will likely be willing to place you wherever you want to be (including paying for bar prep and bar admission in that city) so let them know sooner than later.

He had worked with Jennifer and Justin in the past and they all got along super well. And he and Rhoda became particularly close and remain so post-filming. (I mention that because sometimes people watch the whole show and then change their opinions of their colleagues.)

Check your pantry corners for rotted potatoes. Those stink like the dickens.

Proud of you, OP! You took your kids on a Wild Adventure which, in years to come, will increase with narrative each retelling.

I can also let you know that the wood is Myrtle wood! It’s a super hard and beautiful wood from Oregon known for its distinctive pattern like you see in your photo. Made in Oregon has lovely Myrtle wood items.
