Texas here, every year we had a form that was sent home with us that our parents had to sign if they didn't want it.

I knew one kid who got the paddle. They were given the option to go to in school suspension or get corporal punishment. He chose the later.

Other than that, nobody else ever had corporal punishment, and I never heard of anyone else getting to make that choice.

I concur. I used to be able to leave a huge gap and nobody would care. I drove a manual and didn't want the hassle of stopping. But, I tried this recently, and I ended up making the fast lane the slow lane and I had the guy behind me honking and yelling out his window to stop letting everyone in.

Piss off the wrong guy in Texas and see where that gets you. I was lucky all he did was honk and yell.

I have nerve issues. My nerves just move around, usually due to an injury, but not always. Never had a doctor diagnose me properly. They wanted to fix my knee cap surgically or tell me that my pelvis moves. If I bend, or sleep, or lift the wrong way something moves. I can't keep a bent position very long, and sometimes my knee just randomly hurts after walking. Sometimes I get shooting pains in my elbows.

I know this sounds ridiculous, but, finally I got word of a guy from mexico, he was really old and most likely dead by now, but he was known as a massage healer. He would zero in on the spot and just work his magic. After going back a few times, it would stay mostly stay in place. I did have to exercise a bit (walking was enough) so the muscles would keep the nerve in place, but I could do so pain free.

Either way, I got too lazy and of course the pain came back. I've been to a couple other people who claim to do what he did, but its never worked the same. Closest anyone ever got to keeping me pain free for any amount of time, was a sports masseuse.

I don't know if you've ever heard of someone in your area like that, but it might be worth a shot. He would tell stories of how he helped all sorts of people with all sorts of aliments. This guy was well known in the Hispanic community, and people would come from other states just to see him, for all sorts of issues. If someone like this exists around you, they should be too hard to find if you ask the right people. Worst that can happen is you get a massage.

I'm honestly confused how she could write a story where Harry Potter triumphs over he who must not be named, when he who must not be named was her hero.

It must have been really tough for her.

Gotcha.

Upon looking into it further it seems they just bought the design department. That's crazy.

I used to love HTC phones, and was a loyal customer. Glad they're trying to make a comeback.

Didn't google buy HTC?

Foe.

I just watched it because there was nothing else. I didn't expect to like it.

It made me sad, but I think it was worth watching.

They were getting DDOS attacks.

I've gotten like 3 of these in the past 24 hours where I couldn't escape.

This better not be the new "thing."

TECQ stops him about as much as a stick stops a bulldozer.

The first, and so far, only fine they've issued for his violations at his Boring Co / Space X site outside of Austin, amounted to a little under $12,000. This is after at least 13 violations that include water contamination, runoff and erosion, and air quality violations.

He hates them the same way one hates a fly.
