There is an art to flying, or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. ... Clearly, it is this second part, the missing, that presents the difficulties. - Don't Panic

In a grocery store parking lot here in Florida, there is a sign that says, HEAT KILLS, with a picture of a dog. Unfortunately, a lot of babies and animals die in cars here.

Hold on now with this one. Even banks and other financial institutions were prohibited from taking stimulus funds and applying them to pass due loans or charge offs. The law strictly prohibited garnishment of stimulus funds. Also, the funds were for this exact reason. F that heartless prosecutor.

I’m gay and I know better than that. I mean I’m gay, gay, gay, gay super gay but I paid attention in sex ed. Is this attorney a human? A 10 year old child prodigy? A medieval monk?

While the defendant in this case is probably lying about the multiple illness bouts (give her the benefit of the doubt she was genuinely sick for one instance), it it completely possible to catch the virus more than once. My best friend's mum has had it twice four months apart - she works front desk in a care home, it's a small wonder she's only had it twice to be honest.

It's true that she said he's a liar. She's not lying that she said he's a liar. Unless the defendant is lying that her friend said that he's a liar. In which case, it's truly a lie.

It doesn't matter if the divorce was amicable or not, the appearance of a conflict of interest is sufficient to declare a mistrial. Better to just send the case to a different judge.
