There are a group of firemen sitting next to me. They are talking about how much better the "safety-net" of health care, insurance, etc. is in Europe.
Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because books.
I feel like I've lost the ability to comment on Suleman without it becoming a rant. Or a whimper... those poor kids. My heart goes out to them. (And by poor kids, I mean all 14. sigh.)
Burrell is me.

It is not less if you buy a carton. Also, it is significantly less outside of NYC -- the mayor is determined to make us healthier.
Jesse, when I was working in NYC and living in PA (Bucks County), I used to buy cartons every week for a woman I worked with who lived in NYC, so she could save some money. And that back in 2001 and 2002. I can't imagine what she does now. It's INSANE.

Wow. Also not aware of how much cigarettes cost. You'd probably save money by slapping on a nicotine patch once a day and not having to smoke for a couple hours -- because while the patches are pricey, they're not that pricey.

Really? So cartons are a convenience thing, not a price thing. I did not know that.

Eh, they're a bit cheaper, but not a lot.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do think I'll stop turning down the money people on the street sometimes offer when they ask for a cigarette....

Hurt your brain: Einstein's riddle.
We did it this morning, and it drove me bonkers. (I eventually got the right answer.)
Also, for anyone doing it, let me say this, because we read it in a magazine that worded hints #4 and #9 differently:
4. The Green house is next to, and on the left of the White house. [This is if you are looking at the houses, NOT in them.]
9. The Norwegian lives in the first house. [Leftmost.]
Go!
