| That must’ve been very difficult. Nah. I just kind of wimped out. The bad thing is that the classroom was only about 200 feet (walking path) from my dorm room. Out the door, down some steps, across a parking lot, up the sidewalk, in the door, turn right, and voila. I had no excuse with that class. |

| Often one good place to meet people is at church. If there are some kind of church activities it can give you a chance to size each other up before you go on a first date. |

| The two week notice is more of a courtesy than a requirement unless maybe if it is in your employment agreement that you signed. Unless the employer is ready to pay you for the two weeks (or more) if they fire you or lay you off, then they should not expect you to extend more courtesy to them than t... |

| Washington DC is already under Federal control. Its ability to "govern" itself is largely within bounds set by Congress. And the bounds can change whenever Congress changes its mind. I know a number of people who think that only federal buildings and property should be part of Washington ... |

| too premature to come to this conclusion. Chatgpt is just an advanced form of google search. People still need to read and verify sources. At the rate AI is going, you can't believe much of what you read or watch on the Internet. The AI programs are often just making it up as they go and should nev... |
