Compliance that they're taking their meds.  Why can't you understand that?

You can't test effectiveness if the patient hasn't taken the medications.  

Perhaps the reason he had to flush so many times was because he was using the commode as a garbage disposal.

Only some pieces of jewelry.

Ummmmmm ...

You have no idea how irate those make me.  There's just no need for it other than the person who owns the car needs attention.

It's the same thing when New York City is referred to, everyone thinks "Manhattan."

Agreed.

There's another relatively famous deli - Katz's Deli, that is still open.  I read somewhere a pastrami sandwich is around $25.  Of course, it's stuffed with so much meat that if you ordered two sides of rye bread, you could feed three people.

Good one. :)

The Navy and supposedly perfect weather.

Kangaroos, koalas and a people with an independent spirit.

As a New Yorker born and bred, I think of it as home.  First thing that came to mind was the home of the Statue of Liberty, then the Empire State Building.

Are there "good" muggers?

It closed on December 31, 2016.

More commonly known in the U.S. as brass knuckles, I think, although these clearly are not brass.

When I was in grammar school, a friend named Elaine Birkenholz had a clock like that in her room.

Going into the office tomorrow for the day.

LOL...

I see you were not planning on any more conjugal events with your wife for the rest of your life.

I went with a friend and she wanted to see the whole movie.

They did it because they are an entertainment channel, not a news outlet.

Did you see that the story about the Mounties trampling a woman to death was false?

When protesters assault the police, when protesters use smoke bombs and tear gas on the police, do you expect the police to just walk away?  

Why?

Hadn't heard that, but the news just reported that the embargo has been lifted.

Correct and, as a shareholder, I am very happy that my stock value has increased significantly.

Disney at least has some redeeming qualities.

Not really.  When it comes to cookies, there are plenty of other brands.  Same for crackers.

I keep seeing ads on TV for class action settlements for injuries and/or deaths caused by baby formula.  I don't know if these are made by Nestle or some other conglomerate, but they are some of the leading formulas out there today.

You fail to put the incident into context.  It looks as though the Mounties were attempting to control a mob.  If you're in a walker, I would think the last place you should be is in the middle of an unruly mob, but that's just My take.

You make it sound as though the Canadian Mounties do this on a daily basis.  

She was having trouble logging on with her new computer and was not able to get in. She is now on a different site. She and her husband are well.

I really do hope the snow is finished for the winter.  I don't mind the cold, but I hate having to go out in the snow.  We are expected to go back to the office starting next week and I really don't want to have to go if it's snowing.
