Seems like an update to those communion wafers would fit right in with the Catholicism WOW campaign!

A little wine can make a lot of things taste better...
In general, communion wine in quantity beyond that required to moisten the wafer only makes things depressing.

However ... if you happen to be in wine country, things may be better. Especially if the priest or a lot of the membership is from an order that runs a local winery or works there.

Heads up to Katheryne Helendale ... Reedley is home to the Christian Brothers! ;)

For an Englishman of my age, who once looked at America’s protections for liberty with envy, the sight of it turning into a sleazy, stupid, and corrupt dictatorship, or at the very least, a sleazy, stupid, and corrupt quasi-dictatorship is extraordinary and in its own way heartbreaking.

We once thought the US was a model to emulate.

To us, America was the land where journalists exposed the Watergate scandal and rugged individualists didn’t take any bullshit from corrupt politicians.
We used to argue that the hidebound UK needed to be inspired by its dynamic democracy and draw up a written constitution to protect our freedoms. Jonathan Freedland of the Guardian wrote a whole book saying pretty much that and the pressure group Charter 88 campaigned to Americanise the archaic British state.

I am in no position to criticise. I once wrote a book, which concluded that the world should emulate the protections of freedom of speech in the first amendment of the US constitution.

What a joke. No one today is inspired by the American republic. The protections for freedom of speech I once so admired now allow billionaires and corporations to corrupt democracy.

That is super weird.

Smuggling, maybe?

Actually for a second after I read the headline I was worried it was you.
The only Apple product I own is the Apple ID I set up for work-related activity, and never figured out how to unsubscribe from.

Finland's capital Helsinki managed to have no reported death by traffic over a full year. For reference: Helsinki has about 685.000 inhabitants.

The officials think that the speed limit of 30 km/h, smart design, better enforcement as well good public transportation and cyclicst infrastructure are main parts of that all-time record.

The sequel will probably be better.

On paper I tell people I don't use Apple products nor have I ever but my dirty secret is that I habe infact had several iPhones because its what work gives me (4, then 7, current 15 Pro Max).
