That's what my grandparents' tree was. At five I thought it was the most beautiful thing on earth. Why did we have to cut down a real tree when theirs was so beautiful? Then at ten I thought it was the tackiest thing I'd ever seen.

You are right, it was Scotland he ruled over in the first part. I will correct the copy, Thanks!

Since that article was written, Bucee's has broken their own record, opening a store in Sevierville, TN, that is 74,000 square feet. That's real convenient.

She may have been younger. She would have been 15 when the war ended.

But we only got a day of MASH life every week, so if you watch one episode every day, it's as short as the Korean War.

The premium grocery here sells ugly vegetables and overripe fruit at a discount, but it's gone in 15 minutes. The cheaper stores never have enough to sell at regular prices. Bakery goods sit on the shelf for 5-7 days before being discounted by half, and they are still overpriced. I once bought all my bread at a surplus outlet (and froze it), but they closed during the pandemic and never reopened. I rarely eat meat anymore.

We used to have a discount grocery I called "Scratch and Dent Foods" which was barely worse than their real name, Salvage Grocery. Their inventory was both eclectic and skeevy, but I bought there. Apparently no one else did, because they didn't last long. The nearest Asian market is a 90-minute drive, but when I'm in the city, I stock up.

Oligarchs get defenstrated as much as anyone else.

Don't be silly. That would make too much sense.
