Now we KNOW we're in Massachusetts

My wife has come down with a minor throat infection, and we went to the local clinic here on the outer part of Cape Cod.

She was given some forms to fill out and told to come back in 2 hours.

On the part where she was asked to fill out her sex, it listed "Male, Female, or Transgender."

Liebling, I don't think we're in Texas any more.

I hope you're enjoying your new home far away from that sun-scorched, God-forsaken hell-hole.

My "new home," if you want to call it that, is on the eastern banks of the Rhein River near Düsseldorf. We come here for vacation every year because European beaches in the summer are either too polluted, too crowded, too expensive, or too far from emergency medical services.
