Some day I hope to experience this feeling.

Huh... I love this movie, but it never occurred to me that the soundtrack could be a "just listen to it" kind of soundtrack.

It's unfortunate that I would be willing to pay a fair and reasonable amount of money to enjoy my favorite NFL team on some easy-to-watch platform, but most weeks the most effective solution is "sketchy pirate site"

This album was one of my 12 CDs for a penny.

I bet AI will be able to do this soon, delivered by the coach of your choice.

Celsius powder, dissolved in a 12, 16, or 18 oz water bottle so you can control the rate of delivery.

Ours has steering wheel "stalks". As I understand it, they experimented w/ taking them out for a while and nobody liked it so they decided to put them back... I could be misremembering though.

No. There is a brake. You can rely as much as you want on the regenerative braking though, and it's better for your battery life.

I have an $8 grocery store orchid that I've had for 8+ years now. He and his younger brother (3y?) are just about to flower again. Orchids have this reputation of being hard to care for, but I water these things once a week, neglect them for months during semester breaks, and they keep coming back
