(NSFL) I recommend all persons do this
I worked at home, by direction, the last 4 days of the workweek. To day, Sun day, instead of working on the outside telephone lines, I did something of personal health importance: I cleaned my human interface devices (HIDs).

Internal language unawareness
I am thinking of a word, universally admitted to be English, that has the letters S and H together, but which is never pronounced as if it contains the [ʃ] phoneme.
Microsoft can start touching me again
After I swore at Windows 10 for getting too close, now it seems to be maliciously complying. Some of this could lead to serious loss.
