Economics, culture, and whatever else pops into my head
I’m not using the prefix of extra to mean larger, in this context, it means outside of. I have written before about the administration’s use of predator drones.

Customer: I just moved up here and I can’t get used to the heat. Me: Where are you from? Customer: Atlanta Me: … I take this as official confirmation that it is hotter than hell here.

I had mentioned Pandora radio before, I now feel that I have found an even better internet radio service. It’s called Last FM and it is amazing. Here’s the way it works, it looks at all the music you have played, in iTunes, internet radio, and on your iPod, and builds an artist library for …
