i second youmail. been using it for over a decade now. i would say that it will eliminate 80-90% of spam calls and text messages......so yeah some will get thru, but it is the best that i have found. there are other spam blockers out there feel free to try them, but i really like youmail

I'm drinking tea as well. However, it is Darjeeling tea over ice.

Really silent and windy here, high about forty five, low was about 20s. I think it is twenty right about now, at ten pm.

My sister stop in this morning, we where talking about everything at once. Trying to slowly wake up, we both ate breakfast together. She had scrambled egg and I had a hot dog with peanutbutter and banana. Afternoon lunch was the last pizza slices from yesterday...

I'm so old that one Christmas I received a reel to reel recorder. The reels had to be around three inches in diameter and the tape around a half inch. It was quite the treasured possession for quite some time. Radio sounded absolutely terrible in play back and was only mono... but so was AM radio.
I also had a B&W camera called the swinger that developed it's own pictures. I still have a few pictures of friends and girlfriends from my middle school years that it captured.

Oh, and here's the conversion from UK Litre price to U S Gallon price

1 U S Gallon = 3.785412 litres, so £1:32.9 per litre which is 1:32.9 X 1.34 (Coversion from XE.com)

so we have 1:32.9 X 1.34 = $1.78 X 3.785412 per US Gallon = $6.74 (6.738 but rounded up)

Ouch! It's still $2.49 per gallon here.

If I fits, I sits.

It's been a strange football season this year, especially on the AFC side. If you had told me at the start of the season that 3 of the four AFC North teams would have head coaching openings and the Bengals weren't one of them, I'd have laughed you out of the room.

That, Sir, looks seriously good! Last week, I had a fish taco at the Tin Fish in Oceanside. It was decent but nothing to rant about... $15 . It was a cute seaside place with only outside picknick tables. I bought burgers and fries for four at a restaurant / bar in Temecula the first night we were there. We drank six beers and an iced tea. It was good but typical over the top bar burgers. It was close to two hundred bucks with tip. If I lived in California, I'd have to figure out how to only eat a couple of times a week. 🤣

I plan on eating the leftover lasagna and garlic bread from last night for dinner tonight.

I might be wrong but I think they are big into folding bikes.

Yes, from what I've seen here all are folding bikes, doesn't mean they don't make standard bikes, but I have yet to see one down here

I just learned that actor Pat Finn, probably best known from "The Middle," though also from story arcs on "Friends" and "Seinfeld" (and lots of other shows) died of bladder cancer on December 22nd. He was 60.

RIP, Mr. Finn, and thanks for sharing your talents and adding laughter to the world. Condolences to your fans, friends, family and loved ones.
