<\/p>\nYesterday, I heard from Carrie B that her granddaughter-in-law is facing a double mastectomy and is equesting prayers (or however you communicate with the universe) for good results. Also that it is PatB’s wedding anniversary (48 years – Wow!) so we won’t see her comments for a day or two. I’m reminded of a fellow whom Virgil and I met in AA – he used to say, “Life is so daily,” and how right he was. Also, I got an email from Medicare that the second CoViD booster can be taken four months after the first one … which is the information I was waiting for to put it on my calendar.<\/p>\n

\nQuote – Multiple women who filed these reports said they feared physical violence. One woman called the police because a man she had a protective order against was harassing her with phone calls. She\u2019d gotten notifications that an AirTag was tracking her, and could hear it chiming in her car, but couldn\u2019t find it. When the cops arrived, she answered one of his calls in front of the officer, and the man described how he would physically harm her.

\nQuote – Books Online – Most books available here are in the Public Domain unless otherwise noted, and are therefore free to download, use, re-use, and re-mix without regard to copyright. Due to the nature of library collections however, it can be difficult to determine copyright status.
\nClick through and consider bookmarking<\/a>. If you have this site and Project Gutenberg<\/a> you can access just about anything that is in the pubic domain. And if you want to quote from them, you can copy\/paste and not worry about typos. I have a bookshelf wall and, between them, these can replace most of it. Sigh.<\/p>\n
\nQuote – Don\u2019t get me wrong. I get the drift here. The biggest bitch about sanctions since day one is that they are not a quick fix, they take months, if not years to ripen enough to have any real effect on the russian people, which is what you\u2019re after, popular pressure on the regime. But things are different this time, for a couple of reasons.
