Transcript says "excretable" but image says "execrable."

The way those two words are used internationally can sometimes be confusing to Americans, which is why it's helpful to refer to left- and right-wing clarifications when given.

The law in my part of the U.S. specifically says to pull to the right to let an ambulance pass, but as far as I know, it doesn't give you the right to drive on the sidewalk (so as you say, nothing to account for a lack of places to move).

What our German friend there is describing is a convention to inform drivers whether they should pull to the right or to the left depending on lane position, which is really smart and which I've never heard of. If there is such a system here, it needs a marketing campaign, because it only works if everyone knows about it and clearly we're not there yet.

Knowing how to drive doesn't create a space to move your vehicle into when the road is packed like Tetris. The world's best drivers can get stuck in these situations, too.

Don't do it if you're trying to date your sister.

Tricky territory when you're talking about journalism.

While Tombstone has a few historical exaggerations, its treatment of Doc Holliday’s death aligns with Costamos’ firm devotion to accuracy. Val Kilmer utters the same words as his real-life counterpart as he dies. As he looks at his bare feet, he utters, “This is funny.” These three words were also overheard in 1887 and overheard by Holliday’s attending nurse.

True to life, Holliday was a quick-witted talker until the end. Even so, his final words left some fans puzzled. While some contend that Doc’s last statement was about his nurse’s refusal to give him some parting (from the mortal realm) booze, his words were actually about his bare feet.

To be fair, it was common then, so it wouldn't have seemed shady.

There is a federal law against that as well and the penalty is much more severe, so I'm not sure what point you mean to make.

It does, sure. It helps to understand that the debt is separate from the property, same as if you borrowed $20 for lunch—it feels a lot different from your friend buying you lunch, but it doesn't feel like your friend owns your lunch until you repay them, either.

With real estate especially, once the property begins to require your attention and money, you begin to feel that ownership more acutely. The bank has no idea when the gutters need to be cleared or there's a drainage issue. They're concerned only with the loan.
