If you're serious, there are a few different organizations that can handle the money transfer for you. Here are the instructions for MoneyGram. You'll need to wait for him to get into the prison databases to get his id number.

It please me that you have a ready answer to this question.

It concerns me that I have not heard of them until just now. However, I'm getting old enough that that may not be relevant.

Yep, that is legit awesome. If I were related to someone with an IgNobel prize, I'd be bragging about it to everyone I know. Which I suppose isn't a lot of people, and I'm not sure how many would know what an IgNoble prize is, but I figure that is on them.

What a savings!

This is my mantra. Maintainability is king. I can't convince anyone designing our systems that this is more important than fancy 3rd party libraries that add some capability that only a couple of people will ever understand how to use, but will find it's way throughout the codebase and be a thorn in the side of bug fixes and new features for years.

About 20 years ago, there was a website devoted to Batman covers demonstrating that he was a jerk. I printed a bunch of them and hung them up at work. Boy, I wish that website hadn't disappeared. It was great fun.

Seems like people don't know their Sting like they used to.

I'm in a red state. I'm in a neighborhood with a lot of of retired Republicans. I don't see a single Trump sign, but there is a growing count of Harris signs, including "Republicans for Harris." ymmv

I was going to just ask, "Why?!" but I think you summed it up pretty well.

I've sort of been forced over to Mac (not that it's a bad thing, just a thing), and Paint.NET is perhaps my biggest loss in that transition. I've loved that program since its early days, and is always one of my first installs on any new Windows installation.

It's a sad commentary on our society. It isn't nearly as healthy as I mistakenly thought it was 10 years ago -- clearly I overestimated how well things were going. That this many would throw away The Great Experiment just boggles the mind.

I'm a paranoid sort. If I paraded a quarter of the signs, flags, offensive bumper stickers, et. al., of some of my neighbors in my red state, I would just expect that my property would be vandalized, my family threatened, my life endangered. I'm intentionally avoiding showing up on any "lists" that might be composed regarding people from different tribes. It's not right that this is a problem, but it is reality.

Unless my math is wrong, early September is only roughly 8 months from New Year's, not 9.

I was thinking more like an Ivy League graduate from a Lawyering the Dark Arts School of Deceptive Loopholes and Twisting, but I see your point.

Edit: added a word

I use this as well. I haven't had any issues.

I still occasionally watch her episode of The Muppet Show

The Mult will just go back to wearing diapers and carrying rattles at rallies and other events. Because, as they'd tell you, that's not weird at all. Now, tan suits, don't get them started.

Depends on the hardware, but generally, yeah.

(It's a joke)

Thanks for the detailed explanation!
