Knower of things about Alabama, public finance as related to mass criminalization, fines and fees, healthcare access. Chair of the Praline Matzo Committee. Actively fearful of the Mariana Trench.

On the one hand, Sen. Tommy Tuberville; on the other, extremely cheap car camping on the island which was the setting for the fictitious town of Spectre in Tim Burton’s Big Fish and the island is now inhabited by goats

The downside (?) of marrying me is I won’t take your last name but the upside is I consider this a simple no fuss Sunday dinner that I might even do on a weeknight:
