These are my personal guesses:

• NBC wanted someone who was the opposite of Lester, and he was given the decision to either host another show or resign.

• Doing a show five days a week for ten years can really wear down someone, and he decided to host something that didn’t require him to host as often (since Dateline is a weekly show).

• Lester wanted a change (as he has hosted the same show for many years).

• NBC (as a whole) is changing, so they thought they should slowly change their hosts to reflect the political view they want, and why not start with a nightly show.

The full-size Blahaj is around $40 (there is a smaller version for around $15, but I didn’t see that until writing this comment), and Kramig is under $25 (around $5 from what I see).

If they don’t already have one, then a wireless mouse or keyboard. You may need to avoid the brand names to get under that price.

A shelf (like one for the countertop or wall or to put on floor) to put stuff on. A soft animal (like a kramig from IKEA). A rice cooker (who doesn’t like coming home with food ready).

Went out soon after the trick-or-treaters came out to go see what the neighbours display looks like at night. Luckily I don’t live right next to them.

Went to supermarkets to see how much halloween candy they have left, and if they’ve started discounting them… Looks like the shelves are still full (I can’t imagine how much stuff they have behind the scenes) and no discounts yet.

“White House confirms independent media reports that President Donald Trump has passed”

Or something like that, because we all know the white house won’t go out and say he has passed, other outlets will report it first, then at one point the white house will have to say it.
