When you’re outdoors and reading for leisure, does it make you sleepy? I can barely finish a whole page before dozing off.
I do and I will be wearing them today because we will be going to our sons house for a BBQ. He is a professional cheif and a grill master so I am in for some good eating. Cheers!

The person playing teacher in this challenge says I got a B but since he's not documenting where I went wrong and telling me what the correct answers were my guess is he's just kind of making it up, so if we have a real teacher or professor in the house how did I really do on this and what were my mistakes?
1A:
lim of f(x) as x approaches 3 from the left = 5
lim of f(x) as x approaches 3 from the right = 3² - 4 = 5The two-sided limit as x approaches 3 is 5.
1B:
lim of f(x) as x approaches -4 from the left = -4
lim of f(x) as x approaches -4 from the right = 5
-4 ≠ 5, therefore it’s discontinuous at x = -4 because the two-sided limit doesn’t exist. It’s also discontinuous because there’s both a hole and a jump at x = -4.
2A:
2 - -1 = 3
lim of f(x) as x approaches -1 from the left is 3
2B:
2 - -1 = 3-13 ≠ -1, therefore the two-sided limit as x approaches -1 doesn’t exist.

(Well yeah now you, Baby)Say now you, you talk about the things I doBut baby I, I'll try ‘n explain the reasons why‘Cause I've been thinking about the things we said late last nightWhen every word I said just didn't come out rightAnd you were so afraid that I'd found someone newBut darlin‘ well, there's no need for what we're going through because
You and I've been in love too long to worry about tomorrowHere's a place where we both belongI know you're the only woman that I'm dreaming ofYou're the only woman that I really love
Baby, see what a foolish heart has done for meOh, Darling, why would you break my heart and make me cry?Well now you can't go back and change the way things are, and all this foolish talk won't take us very farAnd so I hope you're listening ‘cause I'm telling youAbout the way I feel and what I'm going through because

andPatty Smythe / Smyth (I've seen it both ways)
SOME THINGS ARE NOT THE SAME AS OTHER THINGS
Patti Smith is not the same as Patty Smyth.
Patti Smith (born December 30, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, poet and visual artist, who became a highly influential component of the New York City punk rock movement with her 1975 debut album Horses. Called the “Godmother of Punk”, her work was a fusion of rock and poetry. Smith’s most widely known song is “Because the Night”, which was co-written with Bruce Springsteen and reached number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1978
Patty Smyth (born June 26, 1957) is an American rock and roll musician. She first enjoyed mainstream success in 1982 as lead singer of the band Scandal – whose 1984 release “The Warrior,” off their album of the same name, was ... less

After examining her, the medical staff estimated that she would give birth sometime within the next six to eight hours, or approximately 5 pm to 7 pm that evening. As a first-time expectant father, I did all the normal things, stayed by her side until or unless the maternity ward staff kicked me out temporarily while they did their thing, otherwise, I nervously paced the halls of the hospital. By 6 pm, the baby still wasn’t ready to make any debut, and the estimate was changed to between 8:30 pm and 10:30 pm. More pacing. At 10:45 pm, still nothing, and the new estimate was then changed to between “just wait and see” to “maybe sometime tomorrow”. On top of all my other compounded anxiety, a panic-stricken thought shot through me: the date was the 12th of the month! If the birth took place at any point after midnight, every time for the rest of ou... less

This caused me to have to decide... put the sign back or not? I decided to put it back.. in my world, that's the kind of sign I want on my fridge :PWhat do other people do?

About 18 months ago, the same thing happened with our water heater. It had put in about 25 years of service, because it was installed by a previous owner here.

The doctor(s) did not expect me to live, and told my mother that she could go home and she would get a phone call when I died. I guess I fooled them all.
