Apparently pedestrians aren't supposed to be watching for traffic and making sure cars are stopping before they cross or waiting to cross safety because everything is all on the driver and if they hit you for your own stupidity it's their fault and you hold no responsibility over your stupidity even if they couldn't see you. :roll:

I have sure been doing it wrong. :lol: But I am too afraid of getting hit by cars so I will keep on doing it wrong. :P

I learned that many people with Down Syndrome are living longer thanks to better treatment for chronic health conditions. I also learned that my aunt may want to keep her baby, which is great :D ! I still wish I could have him, though.

How the distance from here to whatever star you can see is measured, what you can measure within sunlight and when exactly helium was discovered. Brushing over the basics again as I'll need to be sharp on them if I'm to absorb even a little of what I'm trying to read about what goes on between the basics of our true surroundings!

That ants are tenacious little creatures, not an admirable trait when they invade the inside of your house with no indication that we can ever get a handle on the problem.
