The Tabaco Lawyer had a medical exam tech on the stand. Who said " I am 100% sure smoking four cigarettes a day for ten years is what killed her. " The lawyer asked " How can you be sure it was our brand that killed her? " The ME said " We did a chemical comparison between her lung tissue and your cigarettes and got a 90% match. " The lawyer asked " How accurate are these test? " ME " Quite accurate. Rarely wrong. " The company fired him after they lost the case.

Many in the comments below complained that the episodes got released all at once and spoiled the sub feed. But at least all are up and available to watch anytime and however we want it without waiting. Kinda similar to some of the tv shows on other paid streaming platforms that also got released at once but strangely don't get much complain. I'm just glad that they are out and available. Thank you and looking forward to the other Seasons full episode release!

@lananiella 5 ай бұрын

I think it's wonderful that they are releasing entire seasons like this. What is NOT so wonderful is the head scratching choice to release season playlists IN REVERSE ORDER! Most humans listen to playlists as follows "S2E1", "S2E2", "S2E3", "You sunk my battleship" no wait, i meant "S2E4" and so on. Here's the key as to which is correct. When 1 is over, autoplay plays the next one (oddly enough) automatically! "So what?" you ask. Take the first episode. Season finale. He talks about bits done during the year - WHICH WE HAVEN'T SEEN YET! John, if you're hiring, I'm available. Obviously I can type in your speaking style. ;)

While on a trip with one of my brothers on an Ethiopian Airlines prop-jet, we were hijacked by the Eritrean Liberation Front--and taken to Aden, Yemen, held on the plane for hours, after which we disembarked and were taken to a long-closed hotel. For three days we were taken to the airport early, held there under armed guard, and bussed back to the hotel at night. Since the hotel had been closed down since the government change decades earlier, its storerooms still contained things such as beer, tinned sardines and caviar (!) So, I learned about shandies and rinsed out my sweat-ladened dress every evening, putting it on--still wet--in the morning. With no local US-American presence, the British military stepped into the negotiations and helped us get back to Addis Ababa. I understand that in fifty years little has changed with regard to freedom and work opportunities in that poor, war-torn nation.
