I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Aw, the voice of Optimus Prime died.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am not enjoying this daily new person to mourn feature

That which does not kill you should RUN

My cervical spine surgery is scheduled for September 14. And that's actually great, because we have a trip to the beach planned for the second week of November, and I should be recovered plenty by that point to go sit on a deck and read.

Now I have to obsessively plan.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Best of luck with the surgery, Steph!

Happy (belated) Birthday, lisah!

It's, like, fractal stupid. If you inspect any part of it it's even stupider than you first thought.
