Hulu was playing this ad, and I recognized a voice.
It was Jeff Garlin.
I caught his show at Morty's a year or two ago and became a big fan.
Had to look it up to find out if it was him or not.
You might know him from curb your enthusiam or Wall-E.

Oh there's sober men & plenty
And drunkards barely twenty
There are men of over ninety
That have never yet kissed a girl.
But give me a rambling rover
Fae Orkney down to Dover
We will roam the country over
And together we'll face the world.
Stinson also felt strongly enough about the issue a “dissental,” or to dissent from the denial of en banc rehearing.

Copy editing error in online chapter of David Lat's first novel, Supreme Ambitions. I was reading it today to distract me from being dosed with a drug though a tube in my nose, which is the sort of thing I do to support my blogging habit. If I run into more of these, I'll collect them and send them to Lat. It probably got cleaned up in the paper version.
No more edits as of chapter 16. I'm going to try to put it down for a bit. I'm supposed to be marking up a lease-option of a church. The reason I support myself with drug studies - just finished this one - is I hav a tendency to procrastinate actual work.

How your cat is making you crazy

But it's not really your cat, it's cats in general, and you can contract Plasmotoxosis ('toxo') from livestock, veggies, or dirt. If you do have a recent toxo infection, let me know, we can make some money off it. But you probably wouldn't know if you had it or when you got it. I'm thinking of getting a $60 blood test to find out.
If you are american your odds are around 20%. The french it's more like 44% because of rare steaks, and some 4th world countries have 90% rates because of unsafe water.

I've seen monuments to the fallen of many wars, but never a memorial for those killed by cops.
It might have to be virtual at first. These reporters are having a hard time even getting the names of those who cold be on that wall.

"On Thursday fast food workers’ protests in the United States expanded to 190 states as the movement to raise the minimum wage in the US to $15 per hour marked its two-year anniversary."
190. Oh my.
190. Oh my.
