Did you put an SR to get thru her (mom's) firewall first?

You are a wonderful human. May you find 20 bucks in a pocket of the next coat you put on

Yeah I have pre because I have had global entry for a while (8 years now I think). Got clear because where I am, it changes wait time from 30 minutes to 5.

No cape. I'm brown so I'm on the radar bad enough as it is as soon as I leave major cities lol.

Can someone find the "hope is kindled" gif from LoTR Return of the King? When Pipin lights the beacon of Minas Tirith. I can't find it.

I went thru naturalization process. They have everything already. Including DNA, retina scan, etc. So I opted for Clear. Global Entry as well. They have it all already. May as well fast track going thru customs.

I couldn't afford to donate for a long time but I used it near daily. So now I do monthly, probably larger than average, contribution to make up for sibs from other cribs that can't afford it. Pay it forward is indeed a golden rule.

I can't add a whole lot to what's already being said. But I have to ask. Did no one read the LoTR? Tolkien was a believer of benevolent Monarchy, and rejected political plurality. Closer to authoritarian really, with a lot of sugar added.

So the meme bugs me in one more way. Isildur was in fact a better choice, whether he could or could not defeat sauron. There was no other choice middle earth would rally under the banner of. And because people supported him despite imperfections, Aragon got the chance with his allies to fight another day and win.

🎶 I don't want to live in Middle Earth no more

I don't want to die in this One Ring war

I want to sail off to Valinor

And make like an Elf Man 🎶

“The caucus that lost their minds over the suggestion that they should wear masks during a pandemic … is now spending its time focusing on the fine details of what women have to wear (specifically how to cover their arms) to show respect here,” state Rep. Peter Meredith tweeted.

Don't get freaked out, it's platonic, but I love you. That write up was so detailed! I wish journalists read your notes.
