Bridge Card 

1. A Michigan State provided card (EBT), that is used to help provide bill money and/or food money for those in severe need who live in Michigan.

2. I thought it was called a "Bridge Card" because it helps people get from hard times across the bridge to better times. So, out of curiosity, I asked the lady behind the window about it and she said no, it's name refers to the "Mackinac Bridge"; but she thought that my idea about the card name explanation was more fitting and better though.
A picture of the Michigan Bridge Card, and it's governmental definition, etc.. can be found online through Google; but we can't post links on here, sorry.

EX: I use my DHS Bridge Card to get groceries, and w/o it I would starve.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
