    With due respect, Andy made the claim. I'm asking for the cite. It's the BBC. It shouldn't be difficult.

    White Castle is the worst and that's saying something. I remember when I worked at Wendy's the quality was 10x better. I remember when I lived in New Orleans the quality of Popeye's was 10x better. McDonald's was the best when I was a kid. It's turned in genetically modified, pesticide infused, dangerous cooking oil, chemicals added garbage. I'm sure their labortories are working hard to make it even worse and squeeze more profit out of it. I'm looking forward to cooking at home. I've been to countless restaurants in New Orleans, Hawaii, and everywhere else. Been there, done that.

    South Korean cars were a revelation to me. I've always liked Japanese cars. I can remember every Honda Civic from the 1st generation 1973 cvcc to my 7th generation hatchback. The 4th generation was my favorite but I didn't own one. I wish the timing had worked. I can remember the 1st generation Accord. My 1997 Accord was arguably the best car I've owned. I can remember the first Toyota Tercel. I can remember every Japanese brand's small truck. Etc. Then Korean cars came along and had a poor reputation. Then they got better and fast. My 3rd generation Hyundai Accent was a tank. I remember being surprised at some point in Hawaii when about 60% of the cars on the road suddenly turned into Hyundais and and Kias. I can't wait to own this one.

    https://share.google/dNvjYz4fQwzA6aRJg New favorite. Listing price is impossible. Have only glanced at the carrying costs. Sill, the market is on a downhill slide. What do you think about this one?

    Congratulations, Dwain! I think I’m going to reacquaint myself with Dan and Greg by re-reading Plausible Deception, and then swing into Sinner’s Prayer.

    I'm going to have to face this set of decisions when I move. For one thing, I'm replacing my 2024 Motorola Edge with a Pixel 10 Pro XL. Life is too short. Then I have to figure out how to get internet and whether I want to have television again. I can't know now what the options will be or how much they will cost so I'm not worrying about it.

    I plead blissful ignorance. I am swimming upstream because contemporary mores in the arts dictate that one must not ignore pop culture.
