After watching 12tone's analysis of this solo it gave me an all new appreciation for this cover and Prince. Don't get me wrong, before I thought Prince was top 10 now I'd consider his in contention for number 1.

I have a package that has been less than 50 miles away from me for 5 days now. I live at the north end of DFW (Denton) and the package has bounced back and forth between Dallas and Fort Worth 3 times now. One time it made it up to Denton, then went back to Fort Worth. The latest update is it spent 27 hours traveling between Fort Worth back to Denton a 40 mile drive.
Surface pro is less than 2lbs with around 15 hours or battery time. The only real complaint I have is they don't work well in your actual lap. The detachable keyboard and kickstand makes it a little awkward to balance on your knees. But it also functions just like a tablet, so unless you need to do a lot of typing then it shouldn't be a problem.
The Six Triple Eight - it's a great story that I can't believe I never heard before, some of the acting was great, but some characters felt forced. Like the sassy grandma or the mom worried about money. Or the friend with the potty mouth and the preacher's daughter who always got offended. It really felt like they had a checklist of stereotypical characters to have.
I stopped watching about halfway through. I just couldn't watch anymore after spoiler
the scene where she gets upset about the dog tags that ends with them just going, we'll find his letters, then cut to swing dancing.
I just double checked, it's actually a cedar elm
They really are. If they were on my property I'd get rid of them and put in some oaks or something. They drop flowers in the spring, seeds in the summer, and leaves in the fall.
We have an oak tree on the other side and it provides great shade. It loses its leaves too, but they're smaller, so they don't clog up the vacuum. I just need to dump the skimmer baskets every couple of days.
It's because they have enlarged medulla oblongata.
I always liked the idea of the winning division getting home field advantage in the championship. It would give players a lot more motivation.
"Wait!"
I actually slept in today and got woken up by my kids trying to make their own breakfast. And don't get me wrong I'm all for them being independent, but when I hear one yell at the other not to lick the jelly out of the jar, well...it's usually just best to be nearby
In the military there are two separate classes, officers and enlisted. Officers had at least a bachelor's degree and the military is a much different experience for them. They come in day as leaders, are paid significantly more, and have more opportunities to make lifelong connections with powerful people.
Enlisted are treated like blue collar workers, the grunts. Just in their day to day jobs enlisted people are going to have more wear and tear on their bodies. Take battle experience out of it, just as is, officers have a much better path forward.
Fraternization is illegal between officers and enlisted which basically makes it two segregated classes.
Enlisted folks also tend to come from lower income families, so while they are giving more opportunities than staying in their home town it can still be difficult for them to advance much higher.
In short, you have a large mixture of people from different ways of life with different education levels. Some take advantage of stuff like the GI Bill or other opportunities,. others don't. Also some give their bodies to the extent that they can't really function at the same levels on the outside.
I've always felt like Darren Aronofsky makes great movies but absolutely sucks at ending them. Every movie of his, that I've seen, I've enjoyed up until the last 5-10 minutes. He just makes the most depressing endings, that make me regret watching the movie.
