Neutral:  I’m doing well. Only missed 3.5 days of work so far. Harvested my prickly-pear over the weekend and had my first prickly-pear margarita last night. ‘Twas dope.

Grilled cheese sandwiches. Use good cheddar, sliced challah, and fry that sucker under a brick.

We have a chihuahua that absolutely loves lettuce, esp. the crunchy base. All our dogs end up liking fruits and vegetables (cronch!), but nothing beats the hua-hua and his greens.

Because, right now, we can make Thorium reactors.

Neutral:  Thorium nuclear reactor.

But if you want to buy the car, you’re still dealing with the company that owns the showroom. Not much of a difference.

But the showroom is still owned and operated by the company you’d be purchasing from. Not that much of a departure from the normal dealership model.

That would be schweet.

Just a pretend Tesla “not-a-dealership” dealership. You still had to physically go to a location owned by the company you’d be buying from.

Well, I tried asking random people if they’d let me try out their car to no avail.

Counterpoint: I enjoyed the hell out of the movies and usually find myself watching them whenever the come on TV (esp. Lightning Thief). Cranky author is just cranky that books and movies are different.

I’ve only missed three days of work over this whole business, so not much has really changed. I do miss liquor stores, though.

Egg whites? Omelettes. Nailed it.
