I phoned the Cardiac specialist and they referred me to the pacemaker supplier. I phoned them and the guy said not to go...

I've always wondered if chickens communicated using foul language. Maybe only when they're egg cited. An invisible man married an invisible woman. The kids were nothing to look at either. I didnt think the chiropractor would improve my posture. But I stand corrected. I took my new girlfriend...

Morning all, The word Covid, meaning. I looked it up, in the online Oxford English Dictionary. Not there. Not listed. Why is this So. Why is it excluded. Grey
