My little sister Annie had a car wreck, yesterday. She’s fine (just sore and banged up); but the car may not be in such good shape. It’ll be a few days before we know about that (in terms of what insurance will or won’t do and even in terms of which insurance company pays for [...]

“Today’s lesson, my child,” said the wizened, old guru to the impetuous, young fool, “is simply this:
Never, ever, under any circumstances, cut poison sumac with a chainsaw.”

Please try the sign-up process - this is supposed to be a limited beta test, though, so if you’re not an official beta tester, you won’t have 100% access to features as they’re added.
