One evening while I was preparing dinner my daughter
came into the kitchen asking for homework help on her
vocabulary words. "Mom," she asked, "What's a
quarter horse?"
As I thought of a simple explanation, my five-year-old
piped up, "I know. It's the one they have in front of
the grocery store!"

Can't argue that one!
Of course, it's a twonie($2 coin in Canada) now!
I caught a cold near the carousel
I heard there was something going around.
Q: Chicken on a stick is called chicken skewers. Pork on a stick is a
pork skewers. What do you call a horse on a stick?
A: Carousel
Our kids climbed on horses behind us
on the merry-go-round. Before the ride started, they began bickering.
I spun on my horse, pointed my finger at the kids and said in a very
loud voice.
"Don't make me turn this carousel around!"
They got quiet. Actually, everyone got quiet.
Of course, it's a twonie($2 coin in Canada) now!
I haven't seen any of those in central Arkansas in a long
time.

Like a blonde at a highway roundabout. :P
Quarter horse:
I thought it's what you order when you're not hungry enough to east a WHOLE horse. . .
Or McDonald's' butcher's minimum order for the hamburger meat?
Or McDonald's' butcher's minimum order for the hamburger meat?I like McDonald's fries, but I'm not real crazy on their burgers.
I customize everything at McDonalds to make it palateable. . . not
easy, especially aas they're starting to arbitrarily charge for some toppings.
40c for 3 skinny wilted pickles?! KMX!
Why charge me for my preferred dip when I'm not taking ketchup - ytou
gave the gut in front of me about 100 in his bag! I only need 3oz of McChickem sauce in a tiny side dish container.
My first GF would orcder a Big Mac, extra pickles plus erxtra pickles
on the side (they gave her almost half a cup worth of their poickles
for no extra fees)
I can grow boobs, but nobody wants to see that! & I'm not my
jeopardizing my heart health to save a half buck at McBarfy's. . .
I pretty much only eat fries when I drop in some times when hungry &
ouit & about, or hash browbs for breakfast (just fries, really)
Occasionhally I'll have adouble Big Mac, but no sauce, as if I say half sauce, I get triple & if I say no cheese, I get cheese AND bacon (I
don't eat either)
minimum wage because they have minimum inteligence, minimum skills, minimum motivation, & minimum aptitudes. . .
& their supervisors get 3-4c more per hour because they're barely worth even that, but you have to reward those who will take the rap for
others' incompetencies.
I prefer A&W, but they're not cheap.
Fast food: FAST, CHEAP, or TASTY -- you can only have 2, if you're lucky--morer likely only 1
I ate a kids meal at McDonald's today. His mom got really angry.
Q: How is working at McDonalds like being an archaeologist? A: Either
way you'll be working with ancient Greece.
"Hey, Ronald McDonald - been watching any good clown movies?" Ronald:

Dyslexic boy asks his mother for a mcdonald's, she goes only if you can spell it, he then says "okay mum, can I have a KCF?"
40c for 3 skinny wilted pickles?! KMX!KMX?? And, a lot of these places hate it when you "special order" a
sandwich.
Years ago, there was a franchise called Western Sizzlin' -- I loved their pickles. But, I understand they have oxylates, which can cause kidney stones, so I eat these sparingly now.
I like the hash browns/tater tots that Chick-Fil-A has, but they're
closed on Sunday...and it's rare I eat breakfast out anymore.
If I get their breakfast, it's the sausage egg mcmuffin...otherwise, I
get the 2 cheeseburger meal and large size it. Those are the only things
I eat off their menu.
Too many nowadays want something for nothing. I worked for Burger King
for nearly 5 years 40 years ago.
I prefer A&W, but they're not cheap.It's called "you get what you pay for".
At this area franchise, David's Burgers, if you eat in, and order a
combo, you get unlimited french fries. I can get a single grilled chicken sandwich with mayonnaise, tomato, pickle, grilled onion, American cheese, plus a large drink, and unlimited french fries for under $10. But, I can
not do that every day. Then, I get a complimentary sample of soft swirl
ice cream (chocolate and vanilla). I normally stay away from chocolate
for the caffeine, but that little bit won't hurt me.
That's for sure. The one thing I'll say for Burger King is that while
their burgers are "flame broiled", they're not "swimming in grease on
the grill", like at Wendy's, McDonald's, and elsewhere.
Q: How can you tell if it's Ronald McDonald at a nude beach? A: He hasNever mind hold the onions.
seasame seed buns
I've never had their McRib sandwich.
I'm not worrierd -- McDonalds had an ad campaighn with the song, "What
you want is what you get. . at McDonald's today!"
One tuimie a supervisor backing the cashier, was trying to denty me a switch of inmgredients. I just askedm sing-song, "Whatever happened to whay you want is what tyou get, at McDonald's today." so she overrode herself & told the girl to put it through as a stop order (the kitchen waits until she goes back & explains the order, then started perepping it)
A urologiust I had, my first one re kidney stones, said even if I
stopped eating EVERYTHING with oaxalates, my body would produce then & make the same amount of stones anyway.
Basically, if you've ever had stones, you have a 16%, on averagem
chance, every year, of having them again (I'm running more like 95%,
over the past 30 years)
I don't eat breakfat at McD's any more - they screw it up too much -- I
go to Tim Horton's (the Canadian Dunkins, kinda, but with sandwiches, wraps, & others with the coffee & doughnuts); best fast food breskfast ever! I used to get the 5-cheese bagel, toasted, with 2 eggs,no meat, tomato, & leaf lettuce, & cheese, c/w coffee & doughnut(double
chocolate)
My wife is eating heralthy, & the only thing she eats from McDonalds is their chicken snack wraps with half or no sauce, as the kiosk allows
(she prefers half) & their coffee, but she's dropped high test coffee
now & drinks half & half (half regular, half decaf)
I worked at A&W; I did all 4 jobs suimiltaneously, & manager, too, some days bymyself,. but other days, I'd switch in & out front & back, as needed, depending on who just didn't bother showing up (cheap teen labour. . .jeeze! Used to be about 60% of the adult minwage)
More like you don't get what you pay for these days, especially with online shopping!
Merchants have caught on that people assume higher price means better quality, so they now sell their cheapest garbage at the highest prices
in each category!
I miss the one deparment store cafe we had: chicken strips, caesar
salad with unlimited chicken strips! I'd get the honey mustard sauce &
dig in & skip dinner later that day, especially if I hadn't already skipped breakfast. . .
$5 (lumnches typically were bumping over $10 then; now you're looking
at $14-18 for a decent lunch. but you can still find good deals in the food court (I like Bourbon Street Grill -- I get a starch(rice or noodles--I have them sub potatoe chunks), 2 veggies, & 2 mear options
(a solid pound of food! for $12, including a large coke, & extra
bourbon sauce on the side, in a coffee cup)
Another good one is a U-Grill clone -- you pick your items onto a
little plate they tare out, & they charge you by the 100g. I
typically go heavy on salmon, & various veggies, & a bit o' chicken for variety; they include a half cup of red rice & 2 good shakes of stir
fry sauces -- I like the curry & hot pepper mixed. . . & a Coke to
wash it all down -- $12 or so there, too. . .
I mix it up from others, occasionally, keeping it near to $10 as I can.
. .
Yup; I enjoyed them -- I'd stop off on my way home from A&W for a cheeseburger.
Got so they'd se me come in, I'd know when to wave my hand as I'm
halfway through getting tot he till, & they'd drop my patties so I'd
have it fresh off the grill just as I got to the front of the line to pay!
I ain't going anywhere NEAR the onions, nor the pickle!
Grown up Wendy runs over, flips him onto his back & cries out, "Where's the BEEF?"
Ronny runs off in shame. . .
McDonald's tried to make a beef version of the McRib, but failed. Hopefully they learned from their McSteaks.
George,
I'm not worrierd -- McDonalds had an ad campaighn with the song, "WhatThat was long after Burger King came out with "Have It Your Way".
you want is what you get. . at McDonald's today!"
It's like they think everyone can eat the same thing with no alterations.
I remember one time as a cashier at Burger King, this guy wanted a
Whopper Junior With Cheese with just ketchup only. I told him that I
would sell him a cheeseburger with just ketchup only...as it was the
same thing, only cheaper. No...he was adamant about what he wanted.
If you want to pay more, here's your sign!! <G>
Interesting. Although since I've quit drinking soda pop (I would have
a Sprite on occasion, as it's caffeine free), I haven't had any kidney stones.

That must be exclusive to Canada, as that name doesn't ring a bell.
I loved their root beer and their floats. There used to be one in the

Well, still being iced in from the sleet and freezing rain last week, I
can't go anywhere for awhile. At least I have plenty of food and drink here...but the diet of 3 minute microwave pizzas (small in size) and
lunch meat sandwiches, is getting old.

cheeseburger.
That was awfully nice of them. When I went into a Great Clips haircut
place last week, I got a beard and moustache trim, haircut, and shampoo
for $23 (I had a $2 coupon), then gave them a $27 tip. I said because of
the schedule and finances, it might be awhile before I could get out there again. The ladies said I was always so nice each time I was there. I enjoy going to places where the employees enjoy their work.
In several of the Looney Tunes cartoons, they have a deal where they
request "hold the onions".
During Lent, places that normally don't sell fish (Wendy's, Arby's, etc.) have it on the menu, so they can pick up the Catholic clientele.
I like the fish from Arby's...but am trying to conserve the funds right
now.
Either way, I order what I want to eat; if they balk, I go elsewhere.
More that they want to streamline for cheapest producton & maximum profits.
When I order extra pickles; staff time is needed to change my order & pickles cost something. (the cheap crap they have might cost 3 for a penny); they think in terms ofmillions & if millions ordered like I do, they could lose $100K easy.
Of course; I'll point out the difference & often people trust me on
sight, but like you say, ewhatever you want, Sir; I'm here to serve
you! Have a nice day!
Soda pop is bad in so many ways. I can't recall when I lasty had any -- maybe my last 8 hour early morning shift (up at 4am)
Per the mothers I've talked to, stones are worse, by far.
Both involve some thing big goigb through a smnaller passage; buy with
a baby, you got a nice(give or take) baby at the end.
With stones it's more like you get a porcuypine acoming out -- but even
a porcupine is a living crearture, & lovable for that reason, so more like giving birth to a dead porcupine, breech! (quills facing the
wtrong way)
I think of it olike tht & I understand why every mother I've spoke with whose had both says stones hurt worse. A couple OB/GYNs say in their career's experience with patients, they've said the same.
Pain sucks, no matter what, but you see many a mother go through 20+
hours of EXCRUCIATING childbirth pain, purposely get pregnant again later.
Never met a kimney stone patient yet who would willingly re-up for a kidney stone!
Yup, Tim Horton's is a Canadian brand, now bought out by Burger King,
in Canada - they've been opening up outlets globally to serve ex-pats
who request it.
A&W has been slowly disappearing for 20+ years. I worked at one of 2 remaining drive-ins in Canada. My boss owned both & went bankrupt
soon after I went into the hospital for several months.
Way to go! Too much greed moticvated mercantile game-playing by the bilionaires these days. . .
I buy as locally as I can find & afford. I consider US stuff as good
as Canadiuan, except for meat & dairy, but we don't get that here,
unless one drives down for a shopping trip (Done that in the past; not knowing about the antibiotics & hormones)
Yup, ours doesn't allow private ownersship of the franchise outlets --
the owener of all 7 Tim Hortons in Richmond, including the airport's
must sign over operationhs of the airport one & he gets a small piece
of the profits.
It gores by many names, including Mongolian Grill -- basically you take
a tin late & fill it from the fresh raw food buffet, they weight it & charge you by weeight, then the cook sautes it on the greill with a
bit of stir fry sauce, & puts it onto another plate, on top of a half cup of rice (we get choice of white or red/brown)
No kidding -- that's not healthy eating in any way -- hopefuly you
don't have hypertension, as those are loaded with Sodium!
You're unable to cook from ingredients? (even only ground beef can be
very versatile, if you have a variety of herbs & spices); I used to go
to the grocery store on disaility pay day & order 3 pounds, separated into double- wtapped paxckages of 1/3 pound each (for freezing so they won't get freezer burnt)
& spuds -- I love my mashed taters!
For gravy, when on au jus, Isd cheast & put a can of crream of m,iushroom(or chicken) soup ointo a 2cup glass measurig bowl with a little worcestire(pronounced woostah) sauce, then stir it & nuke it
(or use cream corn)
How could that be? You're getrting less grease? (you can order any
burgere at McDonalds "extra lean" & they will squeeze the fat out of
it until it's dry)
& I always order my fries unsalted -- healthier & better tasting, plus
hot as they get! If you prefer the salt, ask, for some on the side.
Likewise; & I try to tip well, but finances don'rt usually allow too
much generosit -- but I have given extra, especuially, if I'll be away for a while.
Mostly I tipp my cabbies 20-25% -- as I like that they'll usually waste little time picking me up when I call for one, at least if they know it's me.
I thought it was "hold the mayo"?
Arbys isn't bad, but my nearest one is the airport. . Ditto Taco Bell
(I want to try the Gordita Crunch, but not with a bus & two
skytrains.)
I'm not into fast food fish; McD's teed me off when they made a big
promo of their Maritime Haddock & chips basket for par of their world tour -- so miserable -- a thin dry piece of over-breaded generic fish paste (no flakiness like real fish)
I got a world-known fish & chips place near here - they serve it in newspaper, even! Not cheap, though (under $20 so not overely out of reach; but a very rare treat in the summer near rthe water, watching to see if some other idiot puts their tot on the edge of the pier, so a sealion yanks her into the water! (true story--a watching stranger

Q: What's the difference between a Sea Lion & a Seal? A: I.O.N.
Q: Why are sea lions so strong?
A: Because they love big mussels
[chemistry 101 trigger warning]
A seal is just a neutral sea lion. Neutral, as in without the ion.
My family spent an afternoon at Fisherman's Wharf. My daughter and I
were taking pictures of the sea lions. Several of them started making noise. So I said to my daughter,"The sea lions saw you. They're saying Dork, Dork, Dork".
[if they were Swedish, they'd say, "bork! bork! bork!"]
Exactly. That's why there are these kiosks in some restaurants. I've
only seen them in area McDonald's, but heard that other franchises are considering such.
I love the dill pickles, but I don't go overboard on them. One time, I
was snacking on Lay's Dill Pickle potato chips, and eating ice cream sandwiches. So, I raised a few eyebrows when I told folks "I'm eating
pickles and ice cream". <BG>
see its trunk". <EG>
Sometimes, it's like "here's your sign". <G> One smart aleck came
through the drive thru, wanting "a fur burger and a side order of
thighs". I told him "you'll find that in the red light district
downtown".
McDonald's, and I said "Sir, this is Burger King. McDonald's is down
the street".
he wanted "a waffer...a double waffer...a double waffer with cheese".
He couldn't make up his mind, and he obviously wasn't educated. I
guess a waffer is a rather large wafer. :P
Soda pop is bad in so many ways. I can't recall when I lasty had any --I drank a little Sprite the other day, but sometimes now, the drink (especially Pepsi products) will set my colon off into diarrhea...I
maybe my last 8 hour early morning shift (up at 4am)
guess too much fluid or sugar.
Per the mothers I've talked to, stones are worse, by far.Two women's takes on kidney stones:
1) I'd rather have quintuplets (5 at once) with no epidural or
anesthetic, in hard labor, than one kidney stone. That sums it up.
2) Woman: "If us women can pass a baby, you men can pass a kidney stone".
Me: "Unlike the female cervix, the male penis cannot dialate". That
shut her up.
Both involve some thing big goigb through a smnaller passage; buy withOne asked me if I had several at once if I'd name them, and I replied

"Of course. Sly And The Family Stone". <G>
Exactly...never mind a prick to the prick. :P
Men are wimps when it comes to pain.

kidney stone!
They have more money than they know what to do with. Believe me, if
I could convert the money in L.O.R.D. II right now (over $114 million)
to real life, I think I could survive. <G>
They got actual visual evidence of a hormone...a hooker moaning because
she was having pain before sex. <G>
I asked her one time "If you drop an anchovy on the floor, what if the dachshund gets it??". She growled "If he touches it...he dies". <G>
I can't stand for long periods of time at the sink, toilet, table, or
in the shower...as the arthritis is so bad in my legs, along with the degenerative disease in my back and spine. I use a cane or walker every day...which one depends on how I feel.
& spuds -- I love my mashed taters!When someone told me to cut carbs, I said "I sliced a pizza". <G>
There was an episode of "The Three Stooges", where Moe is talking about
this sauce (the one you noted), and he was having trouble pronouncing it. Then, he lamented "I never could say worcestshire". <G>
Are you sure you lost an electron?? I'm positive. <G>
[if they were Swedish, they'd say, "bork! bork! bork!"]Wasn't he a political figure or a judge??
George,
So far only McD's & Tim Horton's here. Oh, & one A&W that's now gone. .They're losing all the good places (sigh!). When this buffet cafeteria announced they were going to shut down 20 years ago (this was before my
Dad died 15 years ago), he lamented "I'm going to starve to death!!" <G>. We'd always go there after Sunday morning church services...but the
reason the Baptists are wanting to get to the cafeteria early, is that they're afraid the Methodists are going to beat them to lunch. <G>
I pay at the counrter even when ordering at the kiosk, as I want theGood idea. I usually order the same thing when I eat out (although I

can't afford to eat out every day). I thought about making a switch the
other day, but decided it was cheaper to stick what with I had been
getting.
Except7 when this one she-dog is on, then I'll pay with my debit & goYou've got some folks who have no business working there...and obviously
pick up at the counter, & ask there for delivery to a table, if I'm
not taking right off to go. . .
some who don't want to be there. I worked at Burger King for 5 years over
40 years ago, and I didn't consider it "degrading"...I got my fill of Whoppers. <G>
I remember when all those combos first came out nearly 50 years ago...
it was amazing how quick the others jumped on that bandwagon. I rarely
use a mobile app to order stuff, but I've considered it.
I do that when they point out my belly & ask if I'm pregnant. I say,Never mind hear it snort. :P
"Sure am; with a baby elephant; want to see his trunk?"
I thought about going to Arby's after church this morning for a couple
of fish sandwiches. But, since I was hacking from sinus drainage, and I
had grabbed an EMPTY bag of cough drops (works real well <G>), I decided
just to come straight home.
I didn't rest well last night, so even though I woke up at 6:30am, I
went back to sleep until 7am.
after church today...but in getting the first one set up, I was late
leaving for, and getting to church. Then, after I got home, after I
got done setting the second one up, it was time to do a ham radio
traffic net, and finish the stuff for it. I still haven't eaten anything today, and I'm starving. So, after I finish the QWK Mail, I'm going to
get something to eat...then do a small amount of computer work, then get
to bed.
Oh, yeah...the cashiers (like myself) were encouraged to do "suggestive selling".
showed me a deal with Kroger with "Lite Peach Tea"...it has NO CAFFEINE!! I've been drinking just Kroger Lite Lemonade, and I'm getting burned out
on it...so, the next time I go to the store, I'll be getting that.
I say the same; pointing out that their equpment is especually designedExcept only for arousal, or pressure from the bladder.
to handle a baby going through; mine is not designed to stretch.
Plus the G-spot is conveniently located to offset some of the pain.The late Betty White (wife of the late Allen Ludden from the original PASSWORD game show), noted in an interview on The Tonight Show with Joan Rivers (guest host for Johnny Carson) 50 years ago, that "I don't know
what all this talk about trouble finding the G-Spot is all about. To me,
it's a cinch...when a man touches me, I say ''Oh, Gee!!''". The entire
studio erupted in raucous laughter. <G>
That helps. If the pain level is at a 1 or 2, I'll either tough it out,
or take a low dose Tylenol. I was advised to give up all other pain meds
that I had. But, the acetomenaphen in the Tylenol and other medications
can lead to liver damage. I guess they just want us to suffer. But, for
folks on a blood thinner (like I am), these can make one more of a hemophiliac.
Hmm, need to make some wooden disks, with "Tuit" on one side & "Ion" onI get the round tuit, but the ion??

No idea -- it was a character on the Muppets, the Swedish Chef, whoWasn't he the chef??
only ever said "bork! bork!" & that was the Muppet version of
Swedish.
So sad o see old favourites pass on. . . we had a sub place here, where the cook made these WILD & amazing hot meat submarine sandwiches plus breakfast all day, & fried chicken -- so good -- he wrapped the chicken pieces in wonton wrapper dough & it kept every drop of juice in that chicken piece!
Yup, there's a reason you've come up with it as a regular item.
We had (! *sigh*) a pub across the street that, during football seaaon, had a full breakfast combo for 99c whjich went up 50c every half hour. I'm not into football, so I'd pop in about 9am & order the 2 poached eggs, toast, & instead of the bacon, have 2 more eggs or more toat or more hashed browned potatoes (home/pan fries, really).
I may have to head up to my fave steak place for my birthday diner on Sunday.
Proper 16-oz prime rtib streak, cooked perfectly to order every time (medium rare) with potatoes, seasonal veggie, unlimited sourdough bread(with garlic & herb butter), & a Keg sized(12oz) red wine & a Spabnish coffee for dessert!
I say if you don't like working somewhere, leave -- it's always your
own choice to be there. They reply, "I can't leave because some thing
some thing, unwise with mony" & I just reply "All personally made choices."
I will not work somewhere I don't like & respect the company & the
boss.
It's handy with covid -- saves going in to the restraurant -- cars just pull around to the mobile order parking spots out front & a staffer brings your order to you.
Order from home, then they'll begin preparing it as tyou get close to
the restaurant, & charge your payment method on full arrival.
My elephant calf hasn't snorted yet -- likes to spit, though. ..
Good plan ; no sense spreading germs, nor upsetting people who'll
assume you're out of your home with active covid infection.
I woke at 5, but managed to get another hour of sleep before actually getting up to my coffee & delicious goulash breakfast!
What poems? Eating is good -- I keep a few boxes of my fave granola

Oh, that's critical in fast food in any customer contact role!
When someone asks for a coke or shake, it felt rude for me to ask,
"Will that be a large?"
I had one happy customer, who was very hungry, he saidm, ordered a
triple burger with lots of extras, then asked if he could add a patty
to it; I said surem oir he could order our off-menu producvt, the
monster burger: 7 patties, 7 cheese, 7 bacon, plus lettuce, tomato, &
the usual under bottom patty goodies.
He was a very happy camper & tipped me quite well, & came a regular for
a while, for a monster burger plus hand mixed(malt shop style)
chocolate shake
Other customers, i'd help order the most minimalist lunch they could & still have the maximum if flavour palate. . .
I always put customers ahead of corporate or anyone else "above" me.
Always good to find a new flavour by a fave brand. . . :)
Enjoy it! We have these jumbo cans of iced tea. I think Peach is one -- some use green tea instead of black, so no caffeine.
The ureter doesn't really change size -- it's about hair-thickness &
takes just a trickle of liquid from the kidneys tyo the ladder -- when
a stone goes through there... ai-chi-wawa! Owww, pain at a 9 real quickly. . .
I locved Betty White -- I saw the clip of when she first met Ludden on Password a while back.
Sounds like Joan. . .
I don't even deign to be bothered by pain until it hits 7 these days -- had to many 9s & brand new 10s. . . Including one time I was screaming for somebody to either fix the problem or euthanize me, I didn't care which!
They finally got the right guy in, who didn't dilydally -- he booked me
in uypstairs in a ward, on PRN morphine (about 6-8X the normal dose people get)
By late morning the blood had drained enough out of my renal cavity
that my pain came down to a 9 & home I was sent!
My old Urologist made sure I had a ready access to plenty of that Opiod that actually works, without fuzzing my mind out. . .
Happy Birthday. I'm too old to cut the mustard, but I can still stir
the mayonnaise, and lick the jar. So, pass the BLT, onion ring, and Dr. Pepper, and no one gets hurt. <G> Or, it'd be like the meme of "When
Food Goes Bad"...you open up the icebox, and the items are holding guns
to you, demanding your wallet and credit/debit cards. <G>
I've never been much of a steak eater, but my late wife was.

I decided to hold the $20 to get some cough drops after church. My
sinus has been draining real bad, so I got 3 bags for $4 at a local
Walgreens after church (they had 9 total available). I suck on these
like candy, but it keeps me from hacking like a cat with a hairball...
The collection is at http://www.wx4qz.net/swj.htm -- for "Soar With
Jesus". I used to do mini-concerts when I sang with choirs years ago,
but my health has gotten so bad, that those days are basically over

it.
When someone asks for a coke or shake, it felt rude for me to ask,I can't remember if I asked the size or not.
"Will that be a large?"

to go to a bar where he can order and drink his beer.
Enjoy it! We have these jumbo cans of iced tea. I think Peach is one --I used to drink Nehi Peach soda...but I rarely will drink a carbonated beverage anymore.

There's so much of a stink out there regarding opiods. A lot of this stuff you can only get from the ER, but many will just turn around and sell it on the street.
Thanks for the birthday greet; I'm double-nickel now. I emded up
staying home for a home-cooked bday meal (much better than anything
at any restaurant, especially economically!)
& they got both my fave cakes: black forest, & cheesecake (still
looking for the combo -- maybe I'll just have to invent it!)

If it's a sinus infection, try taking an ounce of apple cider vinegar twicedaily (rising & bedtime); I shot it straight, but others mix it

I've written poetry, but theyu're all lost -- mine was described as "morbid" more than once & also as psychologically accurate! :D

The one I liked was the joke about the difference between prose and
poetry. In short, prose doesn't rhyme, but poetry does.
