Hot tip, friend, thank you!!

No, it says the kidnapper gave him to another couple who raised him. The relationship of the kidnapper to those people, what they were told, etc is unclear.

This is legitimately so wholesome from start to finish. No "orphan crushing machine" vibes - just a reminder that most people are generally decent and helpful humans.

How did one look up bad words before the internet? Is "fuck" in the dictionary or like what?? Would librarians share such knowledge??

Genuine question who grew up with Google

Thank you! Especially appreciate the commentary below the wiki article - otherwise I'm not sure I would know who's "winning" or "losing" in that mess.

Even if no one wins, sounds like he won by not playing.

Wait I don't follow this stuff - what's the tea on this?

Fun fact: even "regular style" crutches are not actually supposed to rest in your armpits! You are supposed to hold onto the arm portion and use them similarly to the above crutches. When we adjusted that for the spouse, we had to shorten the crutches by like 2-3 inches and he said it was WAY more comfortable.

There are some videos on YouTube by physiotherapists etc that were supremely helpful - recommend giving them a quick watch and readjusting your crutches.

In Canada, A&W has cheaper prices for WAY better quality food. It was a few years back we were enjoying some "as a treat" and realized it was not just significantly better than McD's, but also much cheaper, and we decided we just weren't going back.

My household is partial to a couple of chicken buddy burgers in a time crunch.

That's too bad, I'd love to see some "money lenders in the temple" action personally
