    Oh, and I'm glad to hear that Canadian businesses are actually seeing some benefits from what's gone on with tariffs. Bit of a silver lining. Costco stores in the US carry a number of products made or grown in Canada. Indian food products and some vegetables come to mind immediately. We try to buy Canadian when we can! Oh, and sorry (once again) for the orange man....

    Our niece and nephew-in-law bought a house on Madeira (Portugal) and are renovating it. It’s an adventure!

    Was watching a UK vlogger's latest video about a recent 3-day trip to NYC. He went to see Death Becomes Her on Broadway. A glass of wine during intermission (in a take-home branded cup): $32!

    It is, and easy as it could be. It’s a big lift to make boneless chicken breasts interesting, much less delicious. I get the air chilled or Purdue Perfect Portions, which are pre-brined. Prefer the air chilled. I do recommend fresh herbs for this.

    If they aren't busy then next time I'll ask for a peek inside for more data!

    I don't think think the definition of sentient is ambiguous myself.

    These are two ads are for the same car. This will be my first project. The asking price is high. It's been on the market for a several months. It will sell at a premium but I can't imagine I couldn't negotiate the price lower.

    @Axtremus No I retired from that several years ago. I've been a church organist of late although I miss trucking. I'll share some organ vids from time to time. Hope you are well. I'll tell Rach On! I said hi to you.

    I think we have one or both of them here. But they are a 5 mile or so drive from here compared to maybe a mile to our favored supermarket. We’re weirdos though, because the locals drive everywhere and that feels like a slog to us. I guess I should look at the prices to see if they’re worth the travel. Ms. RP used to drive to the Costco in Bayonne, NJ once a week for bulk items, but she’s even doing that less often these days.

    Speaking of Madonna, she was probably in the best shape of her career as a dancer and stadium performer at the time this video was made. Link to video I saw a live performance she gave in Italy around this time and it was great. Old person note: some of us are old enough to remember Times Square before it was gentrified. : leaving :

    It seems to me to be decorated the way new high end London apartments are decorated. The aspects that stood out the most to me were: the darkness of it (I don't mean gloom; I just mean darkness); New York apartments don't have this aesthetic,... and, the light fixtures looked to me like the ones you see in new high end London apartments.
