Acrylic paint is extremely accessible and easy to use; it’s not just fun and accessible, but also incredibly cost-effective. Acrylic paints are great for beginners, or anyone who believes they won’t be using the paint again anytime soon (think: students, artists, kids, etc.).

Ferrets are popular as pets, and in some cases, they’re even needed for scientific research. They’re friendly animals that make good house pets. They can sometimes be a little curious, however, which makes them good house-Ferrets are mammals belonging to the same family as weasels and polecats. This means they have sharp teeth and short legs.

When you think of ambulances, images of sirens and flashing lights probably come to mind. But what if you’re not a police officer, fireman, or EMT? What if you’re just a regular person who lives in an urban area? In the United States, most ambulances are licensed as “medic-only” vehicles. This means they only transport patients who have been pronounced dead by a medical professional.

Ambulances do not generally take people…
