A restaurant would rather sell you a $14 half pound burger than a $7 quarter pound burger. The only fry option is a plateful for $6. Or you can upgrade to a side salad for $3 more.

I met a guy named Sam Pate. He was a radio guy in Dallas in the 60s and was live on the air when it happened. He told me that the shooter escaped down the storm drain (they were much bigger then before the street was resurfaced), went through the tunnels under the city, and was on a plane to Chicago by the time Kennedy was pronounced dead. https://www.jfk.org/collections-archive/sam-pate-oral-history/

I really hate to see more death and destruction, except for that one, and a few is his buds.

I suggested that we should have cheers day instead. Activity Pub.

🍻 Cheers!

You could get an extra shower curtain and hang it at the ceiling to help keep the steam inside the shower. Maybe stick a space heater in your bathroom if you want it warmer. I’d turn on the vent fan afterwards to help get the moisture out to decrease risk of mold.

How about the shower?

I went to Cuba. We got donations of helmets, cleats, bats, etc. from a baseball academy here to give to a school. A couple of vets donated food and meds that we took to an animal shelter. We talked to a lot of interesting people and it was a really fun trip!

Our art museum is free but for 100/yr we used to get a subscription that got us 4 free tickets per day to visiting exhibits that are normally $16 each, plus free parking which is normally $10 and it’s across the street from a big park with food trucks and activities.

Also, the zoo and botanical garden memberships that offer reciprocity with a bunch of other zoos or gardens.

Is there an app that they could use privately?

Can i have your 10-hour $150k job when you’re done with it?

What’s a guinea pig’s favorite food?

I tell them about my son’s in-laws who are proud ‘Christians’ and how my kids come over after visiting them on holidays and comment about how nice it is to be away from the racist slurs that are part of conversations there.

I grew up not eating it much and it often bothers my stomach. I’m tired of saying, “hold the cheese” or “can you get that without the cheese?”

Yeah, always have to wait but at least they’re fresh.

Mayo should be outlawed. Aioli is just garlic mayo. Something about the shiny, sliminess of it makes me nauseous.

I used to agree, then i went to a couple of French restaurants and started thinking of them as the same as Mexican, Italian, etc. - Ok to go for breakfast or lunch; it doesn’t have to be white tablecloth anniversary dinner for $100. French is fucking delicious! I didn’t know i needed 4 kinds of onions in my soup, but holy crap it’s good! Great bread, sandwiches, omelettes, …

Pizza is probably my favorite food - you can buy/make it 5 times and have 5 totally different things- different crusts, different toppings, dinner, breakfast, dessert, … For the last year i have been stuck on prosciutto and fig. When we do pizza night we make 4-5 different ones and i save that one for last because it’s so good.

Cheese doesn’t need to be added to every dish. It’s fine on a charcuterie where you can choose if/how much you want, but i don’t need it on/in everything.

My kids’ fav joke-

How did Godzilla invite Mothra to lunch?

Let’s go eat someplace.

Agree 10000%. I went to a truffle party a couple of years ago. Plain cheese pizza, grilled asparagus, steak bites, etc. all with small shaved pieces of truffle (that i assume was outrageously expensive). Those were very good and nothing like the typical stinky Parmesan truffle fries that every restaurant sells.
