We took SRA tests in the late 60's. Scholastic Reading Ability. I made 12th grade, 9th month level in the 3rd grade. They wanted to move me up 2 grades. My mother threw a fit. Didn't happen thank God. I wasn't that smart.
Sorry you had to deal with that crap. Every January I bring a check to my county, insurance is bundled in with car and motorcycle, paid monthly. I've heard these horror stories before.
Mobile is a place where wholesome, good people and families can celebrate the festivities. I'm glad it's an option.

Yes. Very family oriented. It's where I've taken my children. But it is silly that congress is getting involved in bragging rights. Smh
Yessir. My FIL is 92 and he is on our frndlytv. We have his remote programmed so he can see what to hit on the remote for his western channels. I didn't do it so can't explain. If that can't be done then you made a great point and recommendation.
Get her an antenna for the local channel. Then get (Frndly tv) subscription service for $8 a month. It has 3 Hallmark and 2 GAC channels plus Pixl and Dove. Mama gonna be very happy with you.
Haven't watched the Super Bowl since Peyton Manning's last game. Sure ain't watching Puerto Rican gay rap. Lawd have mercy....
Issue is there aren't enough nurses to go around. Always around 85% or so. Thus many facilities will need travelers until the needs are met. Now, about the pay, those crazy rates are long gone since covid. Yeah on occasion you'll see those rates but those are strike contracts and short in duration, usually several weeks or less. Travel nurse pay has come way down to the point many have quit traveling as having to duplicate expenses makes it not financially feasible.
Heard somewhere they had $80 M to work with.

Nurse could have gotten a medical waiver, perhaps.
Been with cricket for 7 years. 5 lines, $140/month
Service has been mostly very good.
When i saw Charlie tear up after Trump's win last year, I knew this guy was the real deal.
I technically am a Boomer, 65, and know no one who thinks or acts like those guys. The ones I know are mostly very conservative, hard working, family-oriented, and fiscally responsible.

My LES disagrees with this. Gross income and SS taxable income show the exact same numbers.
I have a 2000 Ford Ranger with manual windows. 17 y/o (no pics) got in and asked "what's this for?" pointing at the handles. Couldn't help but laugh.
Driving home from a large family vacation in Destin. Glad that's over with.
I'm here in Butte. 42 right now, snow in the mountains, 32 in the morning. And it is past the summer solstice. Unbelievable.
3y 4m, married 42 years. Still have a crush on her.
One of the bases there, either AFSOUTH or NSA had built a really nice recreation area inside of one of the smaller volcanic cones back in the 70s called Carney Park I think. We would play tackle football there. Good times. I was last there in 1981. Not sure if it is still there.
