Battery life is a little short, and the software support ends in about a year. Really wish I could keep this phone going for another 3 or 4.

I think that depends on the location. Parks may have their own specific rules.

Here's my pro tip.

You want a unique picturesque wedding on a budget?

National Parks in the US. If you keep your guest list under 50 people, you can get married anywhere in the park, provided you don't block access, put up decorations, or damage the park, and it's free! If you have more than 50 people, you need a permit, and those are raffled off per day, and almost no one uses them.

I got married on the bluffs overlooking Little Hunter's Beach in Acadia National Park. The drive, food, and lodging for my wedding there cost less than the first payment for the venue of my "local" ceremony in my home city, which we ended up canceling anyway.

Lawn. I have a lawn. Just grass. Takes water and space. Makes a little O2 and that's it.

FWIW, I'm trying to get rid of it. Plans to build a solar array in the back yard, cover the patio with a greenhouse that connects the house to the garage, side yard is going to be raised planters, and the front is going to be mostly wildflowers with some small pathways and nooks for reading and relaxing. I'd like to get it to the point where I can "mow" the whole property with just a string trimmer.

Clockwise, counter clockwise. Classic time shorthand (IE, half past ten, quarter to eleven). Time estimations (easy to see a half minute on a analog clock, digital just goes from 2:00 to 2:01)

I think analog clock displays are more elegant, and are overall nicer than digital. Personal preference though.

The reality started to crumble in 4th grade. I had a history book that covered the "main" wars for the US. Chapters on WWI and WWII had sizable "causes for conflict" and those sections for Vietnam and Korea were much much smaller.

9/11 was just a few years after that moment for me. Seeing people around me laughing at the thought of "revenge" by bombing other people endlessly was a major crack. Farenheit 911 was the absolute "we're not the good guys" moment for me. My idea of patriotism shifted. I stopped believing that America was great, and started believing that America can be great, but it's gonna take a lot of work, work that half of my fellow Americans are unwilling to do.

I had the FX8350 Black Edition, and that thing would keep my room at 70f... In the winter... With a window open.

Summer gaming was BSOD city. I miss it so much.

I would inform public universities that I would pull/reduce funding unless they start trade training programs. There would also be a media campaign to talk about trade jobs, and reduce the "uneducated blue collar worker" stigma around honest skilled work.

I'd also support, or at least not undercut, unions and tax billionaires.
