I think Nut’s “shower for a parrot” was the best explanation.

You can’t read your email on both devices?

Then we won’t believe it actually happened.

It slows healing and suppresses the immune system, but a low dose for just a few days could really help. 3) Ask about Steri-Strips. They’re still tape, but they cover less skin. 4) Ask about a liquid bandage.

You’re only part-time? Good grief! I don’t know which tires me out more – reading about your work, or FCM’s retirement.

Back in April they ran (swam?) the 26th annual duck race in the Pawtcatuck River (CT/RI state line) every year. I gather around 18,000 of the 20,000 ducks were sponsored this year, and the grand prize was a trip for four (two parents and two kids) or $2500.
