I enjoy Mango a lot more than Duolingo. I didn’t like Duolingo’s rote memorization of phrases. Mango adds structure and explanation, so you build and compose.

Also, worth mentioning that you might get free access to Mango through your public library.

1. Electric toothbrush. When I don’t have it with me, brushing manually is such a chore. A device performs better than I do and I embrace it.

2. Prescription glasses. I remember getting to look at a tree with improved sight, and it was wonderful.

3. Air purifier. Has really helped my allergies.

Definitely, we use the Imperial system after all.

I was in Vegas last month. Uber/Lyft drivers are fed up too. One driver told me that he used to meet his goals by 11am. Because of F1 construction traffic, now he’s driving an extra 10-15 hours per day to meet those same goals. He’s gonna be out of town this F1 month, visiting a friend in another state to consider moving there.

Life is becoming worse for the residents, while the casinos get richer.

College freshman flying back home for the summer. Not used to flying. Got to my gate about half hour before boarding. Hungry. Went to closest restaurant a couple gates away, got a burrito and ate at a table while listening to music with headphones. Lost track of time. That burrito had my full attention. Missed all the overhead calls for me. Plane had departed by the time I casually walked back to my gate.

Ruth’s Chris. Best ribeye I’ve ever had at a chain restaurant. Also the most expensive. It’s the only restaurant ribeye that has never disappointed me.

I always catch myself about to abbreviate it DTF, and then I type out the entire name.

That includes birds with arms, yeah?

Hi horrible, it’s me Dad, why did you change your name?

If you dress before breakfast: hands > belt > food and whatever else. Unless you also wash your hands after you dress?

The article states there’s no research for it. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. But of course it also doesn’t mean it actually works. Everyone may do with that what they will. But it’s hard to argue the logic that flossing helps. You can leave bits of food in your gums for bacteria to eat and produce byproducts that degrade your enamel. Or you can remove that food.

But the fact is that there isn’t much research is indeed a valid concern, especially when the health/science community tries to say something is good or bad. They need to prove it.
