God help us. and don't get me started on his plan to relocate the Palestinians so he can turn the coast of Gaza into a Riviera. I'm reminded of this song by Randy Newman.

Anything Ghosts or supernatural is a no no. Luckily the Russel crow play a exorcist movie was more of a comedy so was ok, but Anthony Hopkins in The Rite was too much.

* "Portsmouth Harbour" was always a silly name

The south won't be the south for much longer. Us northerners are going to threaten to invade which means you just have to give us all your land - and sea. That's the way it works now. It'll be the "New North".

It felt light, but they already had my money, so I took it home. Once I opened it, I realized why it was taped shut.
SIX SLICES in their large. I'd say the slices were some of the thinnest pizza I have ever had.
I learned my lesson; I won't be going back. They've got a 4.3, but apparently that's coasting off a prior reputation, lotta 2's lately, several of the reviews are asking if a former chef died.
I will say the pizza was absolutely delicious, the cheese was amazing, the sauce was perfectly seasoned and not overly sweet or acidic, which are two of my most hated pizza crimes.
But the size and the thinness cannot be denied.
Specifically, a Little Caesars hot and ready is thicker and bigger. And their slice count is 8.

« Last post by 6pairsofshoes on February 18, 2025, 10:59:03 AM »Lume deodorant really wants me to buy some.
"Everything you need for outrageously effective odor control." (why would I be outraged by a product's effectiveness?)
"The secret to smelling fresh all day." (leads me to wonder if there's only one secret or many. I suspect a little googling might reveal many)
"Did you develop a brain tumor after taking Depo-Provera?" Wow. I don't even know what that is. Add to list of stuff I meant to google.
Sadly, no threats recently. Just offers to sell me goods and services.
"Get protected with CarShield"
"Retire with confidence"
"Are your auto repair bills making you see stars?"
Only if they are glued to my telescope I guess...
