@Big_Al said: Has anyone noticed how many diners are owned and run by Greeks? Lots of restaurants owned by Greeks around here, including a tapas restaurant here in my town. Well, it was a tapas bar for many years but recently the Greek owners closed it and it re-opened as a...wait for it...Greek restaurant! Real Greek food, that is, not Greek diner food. https://whatnow.com/chicago/restaurants/arlington-heights-la-tasca-tapas-will-soon-become-parea-greek-kitchen/

@Daniel said: @steve-miller I meant to ask if you can recommend office chairs. I want something strong and ergonomic. I don't want Amazon Basics. Maybe $400 give or take? Steelcase, at a used office furniture warehouse. Indestructible and can be repaired. I bought one at the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store near me. Think I paid $30 for it. We also have a Herman Miller Aeron chair that my friend Pat left behind when she moved out of state. It's great, too. Harder to find on the cheapo market (and they're pricey when new), but you might score one on FB Marketplace, Offer Up, or craigslist.

The radio station of my teen years, 89x, was reformatted as a country station when I lived in Toronto. But last year they reformatted (re-reformatted?) it to be the alternative station of my youth - with an afternoon DJ who is my age. I actually listen to it sometimes when I drive, after not listening to radio for twenty years!

Did you know that wifi can (and presumably does) provide a 3-D imaging of you as you move around your home? Scariness is abundant!

Holy wow, that’s spectacular. I could totally live there if I had unlimited funds and several full time gardeners for the topiary.

@beelady That second one looks like it's right up my alley! Thanks!

@Axtremus I scanned a few pages just to get a feel for what's in that bill. Very interesting and a good reference. Thanks for posting it!

@AdagioM said: I sold my digital piano several years ago. Roland FP something or other. I like the way sound runs through me from my acoustic piano way better. Same! When we moved from Japan back to the U.S., for a long time (7 years?) a digital was all I had (apartment life). After I finished grad school, I kept the digital even though I had two different uprights (not at the same time), both were kind of crummy, but I always played the acoustic pianos, even though they were not the greatest instruments. But when I bought my grand, I finally sold the digital. I knew I would never play it.

@AndyD Beautiful stuff!
