We’re all gonna get a kick out of telling younger generations we grew up without air conditioning
Was intrigued, rereading the wonderful The Ghost of Thomas Kempe, to find somebody’s house having central heating being noted as remarkable. In 1973!
And indeed, only about 30 percent of UK homes would have had central heating when the book was published.

I don't want to defend Mangione, but sometimes I get the impression there's another reason involved
he's a cold-blooded murderer even if they somehow screw up the case. sorry if this offends. the fact that he's a murderer is why you like him, if you like him.
They didn’t read Luigi Mangione his Miranda rights? And searched his bag without a warrant???
