    That's ok. The Florida choices have been non-existent since before DeSantis. This was a Democrat state when I was born in '67 until the election in 2000.

If you want a treatment that works for a long time, I've been using Aquapel for about a decade. If rubbed in properly, you shouldn't get any of the haze. Thanks, I’ll look that up!

    The phase out is inevitable given more modern alternatives; the logic is similar to the demise of long wave radio. Mobile phones' connectivity coverage now works well nearly everywhere (at least in our tiny country). People prefer them because they can carry them everywhere, internationally. They now support video, and are a multifunctional computer camera calculator. We have a copper phone landline which was used until recently for the Internet, though like many, we've had installed a fast full-fibre cable. And probably like many households, as we decorate, we remove the old phone sockets.

    "Narcissus can't recognize what he's seeing isn't someone else." Right. He didn't know it was himself. The psychological relationship between the mythological character and narcissists IRL is parallel.

    Well, yes, IMO. This is clear as day to me. YMMV. And, well, here's a thought experiment- if you want, please make a list for yourself of the states which order assassinations on US soil. Again, this is food for thought. I have a name for the war if it starts or if it has already begun- WWW III! Daniel, You win the Internet today! Yes, like Napoleon, I am snatching the crown ( * snort * ) from the Pope and placing it on my own head.
