Me: That worm back there was at least a foot long.

@htdrake: Are you sure it was a worm?

Me: It could have been a very thin snake in a worm costume.

H: Master of disguise.

Me: All the other snakes were using stealth and poison, but this one thought, "it's disguises for me!"

A conspiracy theorist might conclude that the vaccine availability bait-and-switch is all a ploy to get people to create accounts @WalmartInc, @Walgreens, etc.

Fractional points to the sites that at least tell you they don't have any BEFORE the eligibility questions.

... but:

Seriously. I followed this link at http://findashot.org...

One of the things that won't be mentioned about Prince Philip is that he was one of the last people alive to have passed through Western Approaches Tactical Unit's training course, in which wargamers - including women - kicked officers' arses until they knew what they were doing.

Just to be safe, walk without rhythm.

Sure, I'm *eligible* for a vaccine, but:

OHSU's site is broken. After you answer all the questions, it gives you a gibberish text string.

Other sites offer many pharmacies claiming availability, but when you follow a link it turns out nah.

Jigsaw puzzles almost never have the number of pieces described on the box. To preserve aspect ratio, most 500 piece jigsaws have 513 pieces, and 1000 piece jigsaws have 1026 pieces.

http://parsons.problemsolving.io/ is a really neat tool for creating Parsons Puzzles for Python (including indentation).

A catch is that the puzzle has to have a unique solution. If your function defines a couple of intermediate values that can be appear in either order, this is an issue.
