All right, I'll give this a go... 1/ wake up at? Usually around 7:00. Used to be a lot later but Krystal is generally very insistent. 2/ Lunch with? My woman!

I think I'm getting numb follicles, yanking nose hairs isn't nearly as excruciating as it used to be. Gotta warn ya, though, you've hit one of the things I was already planning to use in my next grammar article... "Illusive" (based on, caused by, or having the nature of an illusion) instead of "elusive" (hard to isolate or identify).

By the way, it's an "UZI", not an "oozy". ("Oozy" is the correct pronunciation, though.) I'm amazed that she was able to purchase it herself, unless it had been converted to semi-automatic only.

The ruling is suspended until the government decides whether to appeal or not. I would be stunned if the government does not appeal and if this case does not go the whole way to the supreme court. I expect the government will delay and delay, maximising the use they can make of these il
