Charlotte flew in on Friday night.  The movers came to pick up on Saturday.  I dropped off some kitchen stuff with two friends.  Even after sending off my stuff and giving away more, I still had almost a car full of crap.  I am glad I left styx behind, otherwise he would have to sit on my roofrack.  the two of

"which is more politically correct, Indian or native american"

Native American, or indigenous, or use the name of the tribe. Indian refers to a person from India. Everytime I see "Indian" I think of a person from India.

"We went on a tour that was only serviced by shuttle buses, which took us to one point of interest called the Abyss. Standing next to the edge of the cliff, I apprehend the chance of me surviving should I slip is abysmal.

"hmm, i must be mixing up foot with hand, you know me.""

Because feet and hands are completely interchangeable parts of the human anatomy. I do that too. Except instead of foot and hand, I mix up cunt and cock. People are like, "What?" And I'm like, "Yeah." And then they're like, "Shut up." And I'm like, "...No."

Other states may have similar laws, but they may not be enforced for various reasons stemming from lack of money, resources or manpower.
