Saving this for someone special

That's interesting. I say ayrn for iron, but air-i-ka for Erica. Don't know what my rule is for that.

Maybe not. Data wasn't broken down by choice of weapon.

Among children and young people aged 0 – 19 years in the US, COVID-19 ranked eighth among all causes of death; fifth among all disease-related causes of death; and first in deaths caused by infectious or respiratory diseases.

Yeah, in the yard, though, not the driveway, that's all.

Hopping around the trailside bush at eye-level is a good indicator.

I once thought so, but in my experience with maples and fir needles it works really well. Much easier than raking for wet stuff. Of course, the correct way is to wait until all of the leaves have fallen (enjoy Autumn to its fullest) and then round them up once for the whole season. Every week or two is why everyone hates leaf blowers.

I'm not sure what this article is saying and I'm not sure even the article knows what it's saying. Here is from the published study:

The largest healthspan-lifespan gaps were observed in the US (12.4 years), Australia (12.1 years), New Zealand (11.8 years), United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (11.3 years), and Norway (11.2 years) (eTable 2 in Supplement 1). The smallest healthspan-lifespan gaps were observed in Lesotho (6.5 years), Central African Republic (6.7 years), Somalia (6.8 years), Kirbati (6.8 years), and Micronesia (7.0 years) (eTable 2 in Supplement 1)

What I think I can take away from reading the study is that people in richer countries live longer especially when sick; and, among rich nations, a major factor in the slightly higher unhealthy years in the US is the length of time people spend addicted to drugs.

I can't think of any lane, ped, bike, or car, that would be happy to share with this.

This is opposite. I think. The double and triple negatives are getting out of hand. The opportunists are threatening to primary (with billionaire backing) any Republican opposed to Trump.

This is the truth. The point of singling out minorities for the harshest policy is to make their white supporters happier and quieter about being ducked a little less roughly.
