There are still hotels with ‘smoking’ rooms in I think South Carolina and Kentucky at least, you definitely want to make sure you have a non-smoking room or you’ll be inhaling musty old tobacco smells the entire night, something I had made the mistake of once.

It is not only that she ran to the right but she did so with Liz Cheney who represents the old guard that is no longer trusted by them.

I’m just glad that it exists at all. Google has Chrome tied down on Android because they feel they can.

Apple: what’s wrong with just 8GB RAM?
