For the last week or so I have seen this trio of sleek-fun-looking scooters, parked and ready for action. I even asked the mailman who had just come out of my building, and he says he sees this out and about in random places all around town.

This Simple Kitchen Hack Will Save You Money and It’s a Total Game Changer
Picture it: I found myself in the office kitchen recently, where, as always, the conversation turned to leftovers. "What are you heating up?" a co-worker asked.

Major U.S. City Skylines in Photos, Then and Now

Couples who are full-fledged "swingers" in North Dakota. Let me first start off by saying that I'm not promoting this kind of lifestyle or giving it a "platform" as the social media trolls like to say.
