Some of us live in places with snow, and FWD handles a lot better than RWD in those situations.

Ahhh yes, the other set of federal criminal charges our former president and current presidential candidate is facing, not to be confused with the felony charges for which he was already found guilty or other charges in another state entirely.

I get that it can be confusing though

I love how new Teams doesn't even have a contacts list for chat anymore, it's just your most recent chats. And if you search for someone, any recent group chats with that person show up first so you may still have to scroll to find that person's chat. Oh, and we store documents on Teams so if I want to switch between looking through the document repository and chat I still have to do a whole bunch of clicks between the two.

I don't fault them for when my project manager tags @everyone on the group chat with an important message saying "good morning and happy Monday" though. I wish I were kidding.

Depending on what exactly they're doing, that could be practicing without a license

Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) won the general in a write-in campaign after an unexpected primary loss. But I guess I'm not sure if they have an open primary in Alaska, nor if that would really be the critical qualifier.

Yes, I figured as much when you said you voted 3rd party. Unless we get ranked choice or some other form of voting, we are going to get a president from one of the two main parties for the foreseeable future. Until then, a vote for the person who shares 90% of your views instead of 75% will help the guy who shares 5% of your views with you. Not to mention that the 75% candidate had about a decade of being dragged through the mud prior to the election to make her seem worse than she really is.

I didn't vote for Hillary because she sucked

Well then, thank God she didn't win!

When I wrote that I was thinking of what I had in Czechia! Kind of in between bread and a dumpling, not stuffed, and great to mop up some gravy.

Don't get me wrong, I live a good pierogi, but I was trying to stick to the simple staples

It's a fair point that some people would need a straw to drink, but I don't think it's entirely unfair to expect them to have a reusable straw or something in preparation. Certainly it seems more reasonable than having the remaining 99% of the population default to having a straw, especially when they probably don't use one at home anyway.

Hard bread with hard ingredients (like meat chunks or salami), soft bread with soft ingredients (like egg salad). I'd call a burger medium soft, and ciabatta is too hard for that

His sentencing is in a couple months. Jail is still on the table. Depending on the jurisdiction and type of crime, it's not uncommon for sentencing to occur later on while the two sides organize their pitch for what's appropriate. Plus probation offices and such can give their own assessments.

When did I say anything about a private room? You get a few feet of separation from your parents and a different adult to talk to for a moment. That may be enough of an opportunity.
