They are making new jets with more room and wider seats. In the news article, they talked about the great thing in the bathrooms. It turned out to be a window which is behind the toilet.So now you can look out the window while you pee.
ReplyDeleteHave you heard of the "Bird Box Challenge"? People have started trying to go out blindfolded. One couple blindfolded their toddler and he ran into the wall as the adults walked through the doorway. It was not a started by Netflix who produced the movie.
ReplyDeleteI avoid going to the local Rite Aid because the last 5 times I have been in there, the same thing happened to me. I stood at the counter for 5 minutes before anyone wandered to the front to wait on me. You could walk out with things, but the machine at the door would probably beep. Then, they would come.
ReplyDeleteSaw this on the CBS news segment: Drug manufacturers typically must negotiate with pharmacy benefit managers, or "PBMs". Those PBMs are middlemen in the pharmaceutical supply chain. Swanson alleges to make money, manufacturers set "phony" list prices that are artificially high so they can offer greater rebates to PBMs and still maintain their profits. It is one of the real reasons insulin prices have tripled in the last few years. This affects many in our family and others.

ReplyDeleteCan you imagine paying this much for a tuna? https://www.cbsnews.com/news/bluefin-tuna-kiyoshi-kimura-toyosu-market-record-price-today-2019-01-05/
ReplyDeleteMany questions about this story: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/sex-abuse-probe-patient-vegetative-state-hacienda-healthcare-facility-phoenix-has-baby-report/ She was in the facility for many years and gets pregnant and has a healthy baby. It's being investigated. It's not clear if she has any family that will fight for her. Maybe they will if there is money involved.
