It really wasn't too bad other than my wife throwing away the box that had the back axel still in it.
In her denfense, that thing was well hidden!!! I had the box next to me and looked around for a bit before I realized I hadn’t removed the somehow camouflaged 3 foot stick

Got a power wheels with a shocking amount of parts and instructions in mostly English but translated poorly. I will take this any day over the kitchen I put together last year… grossly underestimated that time frame.
Look at some of the lesser options like Paros too. Santorini is gorgeous but very tourist heavy. There are so many islands and most are easy to get to

Check the Chase insurance. It’s saved me a time or two. And they are very easy to work with (sapphire reserved)

Borax works pretty well to get smells out of laundry. Especially mildew. Good luck. That’s the worst because sometimes you don’t quite smell it until it gets damp again …. The worst.
Flew jet blue for the first time in 20 years (honestly, if ever) in October a was pleasantly surprised. New interiors to planes (maybe new planes… not sure) with movies in every seat back, clean, friendly crew and we were on time both flights. Will be a return customer for sure. Blew United and American out of the water … though American is not hard to beat in my experience.

watch commercials
Actually the one thing we laughed about but we’re also annoyed by was how many freaking commercials. It feels like the business model for these platforms is increase commercials until you pay more for less commercials. Before you know it streaming will be a certain price just for commercials. If you want to see a show that will cost ya.
Finished this up last night. We liked it a lot. Lots of character development in such a short show, everyone is simultaneously likable and unlikable. Good show to binge.

Hopefully the truth will eventually come out.
It will be a wild ride regardless. The lot of the defendants are in deep. At this point, I can’t see a way out for them if the Read side has receipts as they make a lot of assertions in their court filings. I don’t see a world where the case gets dropped, so I guess I would have to imagine they bank on corrupt politics to not charge them criminally if new (or previously inadmissible) info comes to light. Also in the background is a brewing election for new Norfolk county DA. Will all be very interesting.

This is actually really good. Anyone else get a chance to watch? Child abduction from affluent family crime drama.
Employed and reimbursed are not the same. And it’s part of the problem. Medicare reimbursement has decreased $10/patient per visit over the last 10 years for example. Same for hospital reimbursement. So let’s jack up the price so we can get more back, and that ends up being passed off on those with private insurance. Maybe there is a way to set a price for each item… a reasonable price. An aspirin that cost $4 for a bottle of 60 shouldn’t be billed for $25 a pill. Like I said, as a capitalist I don’t like the idea of government meddling but it seems like something has to give here.

Why is the cash price of care so much less than the cost paid through health insurance? Why do the bills have to be ridiculously high and then discounted down for insurance?
This. I work in healthcare. Each year the insurance company passes more and more of this inflated cost to the patient. It’s not sustainable, the average American is getting hosed and the provider reimbursement goes down as well. The only winner is the insurance company. I have thought about it at length. I don’t know what the right answer is. Without capitalism in healthcare could we have all the advancements in treatment? Probably not. The common good isn’t an incentive for most people unfortunately. A country like Germany has a mixed payer system with different tiers that works well for them but I don’t know that it would work on a country our size.
I will also say this. This country has very high healthcare costs bc the vast majority would rather take a pill than put down the fork and exercise. That’s expensive.
It’s finally happening. Karen read has filed suit with a laundry list of defendants. lawyer you know on YouTube goes through the filing documents and there are some pretty big accusations. I cannot wait for the discovery.

Downtown Covington has really improved over the last 10 years or so. The southern has a great bar, and the Haven coffee shop is a cool spot that sells drinks in the evenings and occasionally has live music. Our favorites have been Lola, and del Porto. The reminding is a coffee shop in Terra Bella that has surprisingly good breakfast / brunch. The anchor is a cool place too, food is ok but it’s on the water and has music occasionally. Cool place to watch a football game too.

Claire Foy is great. She's one of the best to ever do it IMO
I cannot agree more. It’s worth watching to just see her talent. She has this ability to convey emotion with her whole face but in subtle movements. It’s astounding. Her accent, her demeanor. She embodied the Queen. Absolute perfection.
Ephesus has some of the best preserved ruins I’ve encountered. There is lots to see in there (look up the Celcus library). In addition, I don’t know if you are religious or not, but there is a sanctuary where St John took the Virgin Mary to live after the death of Christ. I highly recommend it. There is a chapel, prayer wall and beautiful grounds with Turkish coffee. Many people do a pilgrimage there, and honestly even if not religious I would recommend seeing it.
ETA: for clarification, the ruins and Virgin Mary house are separate locations but not terribly far apart. The biblical history that you can see in Turkey is really amazing. Ephesus is the people St. Paul was referring to in his letters to the Ephesians.

I will be on a cruise.
Nothing against cruisers. More about the size of the island, in relation to the amount of people getting off. You will see. My point was it used to be this very quaint spot that felt authentic. This time it seemed easier to find an Italian restaurant than an authentic Greek. The idyllic place of the past sold out. There are so many Greek islands, I wouldn’t settle for Santorini.
Did Santorini 15 years ago and 2 years ago. The tourism and cruise ship situation has ruined the quaint feel of that island. There are SO MANY PEOPLE during the day. I second better for couples. Pick one of the lesser known islands for a family trip. Not a whole lot to do for kids. The ruins in Athens are great. Found great food too.

There are a lot of limitations and confounding variables to the study. It was also done in doses much higher than recommended.

Premise (without giving too much away) is there is an incident that happens in a city, and things aren’t adding up, don’t believe your eyes and ears sort of thing.
