Oh yeah, it is great today. But the upcoming storm feels like a cruel joke given that the ice that was here for 4 weeks JUST melted.
+1. Yesterday was literally the first day that enough of the snow from last month's storm had melted that you could see the grass.
Apple cider caramels. Some wrapped and some still in tray.

Found another one from Philly. I distinctly remember taking this picture because during this walk I passed by a couple and I heard the woman yell "Oh . Hell. Yes." while pointing at Maple.

1) Unless you disagree with all of them. 2) You mean disagree with rejections and give an r&r, right? 3) right?
Absolutely! I feel it as a referee when I get to see the other reports. Depending on my recommendation, I always worry that 1) I am being stupid and missing the valuable contribution, or 2) I am being stupid and missing the fatal flaw.
It feels so good when the other reports say the same thing.
1) Definitely
2) There is a Rorschach Test here in whether this is interpreted as you giving R&R/Accept or a Reject.

I mean, every time I have left your house my stomach rumbles as I say "Couldn't Eddy have given us something, anything to eat?"
Oh wait, I mean the exact polar opposite of that.
I'm so sorry Dan
Dog who has un-rolled toilet paper and dragged it far away from the bathroom.
I truly enjoy a mischevious dog who likes to cause minor trouble.
💯 I remember it running frequently on one of the old cable networks (maybe UPN?) in the mid/late 90's. I watched it many times.

New study: The relative wage premium for going to college has halved for low-income Americans since 1960.
What is to blame? Rising selectivity? Tuition hikes? State disinvestment? We decompose changes in the premium since 1900 to find out.

Are we certain these aren't Fyre Fest pictures?
Actual conversation:
Catherine: "Doug!"
Me: "Yes?
C: "Do you want to see something really cool!?"
Me: "Is it another STATA graph?"
C: "Yes!"
I am constantly amazed at what assistive technology can do compared to when I was a kid.
