What time is it for you? (we just sprung forward Sunday) I know the the American in Australia I follow just went from 14 to 13 hrs.

Call them up. "Hi, yeah, I'm in Korea and want that gg dish.... do you do delivery? Hello?" *you looking at a disconnected phone call*

Can you take some cracks (like egg shells ๐Ÿ˜) at making the dish yourself. even if you had to Brooksify it?

I wonder if air-power escorts would be better? UAE Apaches have drone kills. A Hellfire would eat up most small fast boat attacks. What's left? Mines? Silkwood (or latest Chines update) missiles?

and the fact that we barely have enough small boys in theater to keep coverage on the carriers and rotate out for Ref&rep doesn't help either.

Ugh. One more reason why I don't give Jeff Bezos any of my money.

Gate-keeper censorship run amuck! Wonder how big the buy-in is to get on the recommended list?

The only choice we'll have is for some company to come forward as militantly Anti-AI and offer up browsers etc that are AU free. I'm tired of this AI bu;;shit being shoved down our throats at every turn in the name of corporate greed.

You firmly attached to 'Ray'? Can I offer p the spelling of "Rae" for her?

Nearest movie theater to me is an hour drive. I don't live at the ass-end of civilization, but you can see it from here. ๐Ÿ˜œ

Wasn't long after that time that the nearest bowling alley went tp being 45 min drive away, so, noI didn't keep up with it at all. Next closest thing was Wii Sorts bowling around 10-11 years ago... ๐Ÿคฃ

Nothing says Trump HAS to live in The White house. He can serve out the rest of his lame ducked-ness in a federal prison cell wearing a set of funny bracelets.

I compensate by having seen that bad Kristy McNicholls early 80s pirate movie in a theater, and then multiple times on 1980s HBO.

Freeze your bits off at home or go to Thailand for the price of a dinner for 4 at Chilli's..... Phuket!

That's less than taxes & fees between ANY two US airports.
