You should look into the Cleveland Clinic brand (because that’s what it is, like Starbucks or McDonald’s) and how they can ban an entire family from getting care at the only facility in a Florida community. It’s fascinating and grotesque at same time.

Not just Seattle. Probably 75% of the USA suffers from the same affordability issues.

As an American, where taking home a ‘Doggy Bag’ is the rule, I was shocked by the reality that almost no one in Germany does this (my wife used to think it was an insult to restaurants to take anything home!) Now, I’d never bring my own box. That to me is just weird and, well, tacky.

Elon is a Nazi, so you should only be angry at the power his wealth has bought him and the destruction and damage it has allowed him to cause under the guise he’s a genius when he’s the opposite. … But, yeah, tragic that Donnie doesn’t have the Nobel prize for Luckiest Man Alive.

Hope it stays mild and more of a nuisance than a sickness. Gute Besserung!

That’s my biggest issue with filmed stage performances. While the close ups are nice as you see details you normally have no chance to notice, it comes at a cost.

Halloween I picked up at CVS last week for 75% off. Santa loves American 🇺🇸 chocolate and deals!

The Germans at the table didn’t partake of said bread…

Forest, you’ve gotta stop obsessing over my love for bread 🥖. It’s not healthy and you wanna be healthy for the upcoming war!

I like Mario, but I wasn’t convinced at all. The last two seasons they’ve had some truly bad/ugly losses with their future in their own hands. I’m shocked UM was selected ahead of national darling Notre Dame, but so happy to see. So, congrats on being right and bigger congrats to the Canes.

More than half of this is left over and will be frozen.

No: all white bread. For Germany you would need some nice rye and mixed options. 😉

Summer is a long time away. We could all be dead by then with Trump and Putin. … I had a flight booked back to the Florida home for New Year’s Day before I got on my 747 in Miami last week. I’m done with German winters.

Gives me some hope to stay upright.

I have night terrors at the mere thought of one of these (we saw one once, but it wasn’t for Christmas). But, hey, you moved here so …
