Such a tough problem to have.

@Mik Already looking for a new clinic. The doc has prescribed a form of eyedrops that the pharmacy cannot order. It is no longer made or something like that I assume. The pharmacy had notified the doctor's office. Have called the clinic's hotline twice. They " will call you back within 24 hours", nope.

I love this time of year, too! I love berry season, which has started here. Been grazing on serviceberries for the last week. Bumper crop. Also looks like I'll have good raspberry and black currant crops. There was severe dieback on one of my two red gooseberry bushes, so that crop will be much smaller than usual. Here are some tomato recipes. We need to get ready for those pups! I have tons on the vine. https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/photos/tomato-salad-recipes Corn and tomato salad: [image: 1382541354925.webp]

@Bernard thanks for this, how interesting those properties are! I like number 2 as well! It kind of looks like a modern hobbit house. I noticed the piano bench and thought “that looks like a piano bench, where’s the piano?” and then of course there it was. A nice spot for an upright. Although it seems like it must be very small (60 sq meters sounds a little cramped, maybe my math is off?) I liked number 3 too. I want to know what that legless white piano is! I wouldn’t know what to do with number 4! If ever there was a property listing in need of some virtual staging, this is it! The last one would make a good museum. But it also kind of looks like it should be a tomb. (I didn’t watch the video, but used the links to each property site. I kind of hate looking at listings on video, I almost never watch them).

@CHAS said: The Hydrogen powered Mirai.https://www.toyota.com/mirai/ Get your own little Hindenburg. I'd love to! But anything with this level of technology will be expensive. My car didn't arrive today and might not until Monday or Tuesday (it is insured as of last night, though). It's old school-- normally aspirated internal combustion with a mechanically geared automatic. It has an electrical system of course but not "electronics" in the modern sense. It has hand crank windows if I recall. I'm excited but have always thought hydrogen had great potential.

So I heard him talk about Gaza. He said his position is Israel shouldn't be given weapons but should be sold them if they follow the applicable laws. He said nothing about the fact Israel doesn't follow the applicable laws. He said nothing about the fact Israel alone does not allow its nuclear program to be monitored by the relevant international agency. He said nothing about the fact that AIPAC is a lobby for a foreign agent and, again, refuses to follow our law by registering it as such. IMHO, his moment on the political stage arrived and has since departed. Again, JMHO.

Yeah, it's a scary topic. I won't regale everyone on a Saturday night with the horrible facts about it I have filed in my memory.

They know how to cook in that part of the world. Ask me how I know. The New Deal FTW.

What bloviating circus clown minions!

I don't know the scale. The one that hit us was EF-1. Link to video "Jun 26, 2025 — The twister touched down in Largo near Ulmerton and Belcher Roads on Wednesday evening. The NWS said peak wind was 90 mph."-- local affiliate I hope everyone stays safe!

Imagine you being the clients realizing your megabuck legal fees ultimately went to feed an AI model to argue against itself.

In seriousness, people keep saying this happened today, but he’s owned the same amount of SpaceX for a long time. It’s just that it became easier to estimate the value of his stake today. He was a trillionaire last month too.
