I was being sarcastic.

Village haven was better until they sold. Wrights has finally taken over the podium in my opinion and as a North Smithfield resident that’s hard to admit to.

Is it cause it's cold? I don't see people ripping nips across the rest of the country

Per a quick check on Wikipedia the answer is that most are suicides. This has been a long-time trend, that is well known, well studied and has had almost no action taken on it. In no small part because it is not a "sexy" political issue, nor is it something well represented in the news.
> n 2018, the most recent year for which data are available as of 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics reports 38,390 deaths by firearm, of which 24,432 were by suicide.

I have been picking these damn things out of my yard for 15 years. When I walk my dog, I can tell the route user takes. People on the next door app for my neighborhood know who the culprit is but nothing changes.

Yet, even as the court summonses are sent to his spacious home in Lincoln, Mota is defiant. His home is in the names of his wife and father-in-law, and all of his companies are LLCs, which could shield him from claims.
“Just imagine if the house was under my name what would happen. They would try to attach my house, my family’s life,” Mota told the Globe. “So, of course I’ve put protectors in place to protect me.”

Yeah the owners of Lucky Dog bought Village Haven. I was initially skeptical given what VH is known for. Honestly, the food is equal to, and in some cases better, than the original (family style and cinnamon rolls are still bomb). They also spruced up the interior. Nothing against the OG owners but it felt like some of the walls/furniture hadn’t been updated since the place first opened. My family went last Christmas and they handled it like pros. Lucky Dog is on my list of places to try too.

Library cards are for borrowing privileges. Anyone can go in to the PPL and look at materials and ask for assistance from the librarians.

No. The ones that don't say "whisky" don't contain any and are lower ABV, but otherwise the label and bottle looks the same. So they are getting sued for not having enough, but they definitely all have alcohol.

They're $8 for a 10 pack. You can also buy them in literal buckets. I can see why they're popular.

The butts usually aren't, and nicotine is an insecticide. I think it's pretty even

The butts may be more biodegradable. Those plastic airplane bottles will still be there in 1,000 years.

Exactly. It was good before. It's stupidly good now. The pasta, the salad, the fries are all even better now. Plus they give these awesome potatoes along with the fries. Plus the price is still good. I think it's cheaper than Wright's still. Highly recommend.
