This is sure to engender a discussion. These polite people with the British spelling of "neighbor" are actually asking their carnivorous neighbors to save them from the fragrance of steaks on the grill. I appreciate their right to be vegan and I appreciate the "neighbour's" right to slap a tenderloin on the fire. The old Solomonic wisdom of "your right to swing your arm ends where my nose begins" might not perfectly apply here, because the delicious aroma of a burger doesn't stop at the tip of the nose, but enters the olfactory factory and remains for a moment. If I were the complainant here, I would try placing a small fan, blowing out, at the window.
Here is a 1000 year old chicken egg found in Israel in a cesspit in the ancient city of Yavneh. How you gonna like it? Poached, over easy, scrambled...?
There used to be hundreds of them before they were subsumed by the behemoth Dunkin' machine. This is the last surviving Mister Donut. It's in Godfrey, Illinois. Once upon a time, in 1955, two brothers-in-law, Harry Winouker and Bill Rosenberg, quit being donut partners, each man going off on his own. Harry founded Mister Donut and Bill founded Dunkin Donuts. Their Thanksgivings must be fun.
All week, we have been hearing the meteorologists on TV saying that the haze in the air is from the wildfires in Northwest Canada, which belies my assumption that a Phish concert was taking place nearby.
Why can't we all be as wise as the little kid who painted this!
A man spent $5,000 to build a she-shed for his wife, whose name would be Sheila if there were any sense of humor in the world.
As a kid, some of the best moments in my life where when the "S" burned out on the big "SHELL" sign on the building overlooking Towson Plaza, where there was a Kresge's store where I bought horehound cough drops. It's the little things.
This is an old Silver Owl Tetradrachm, minted between 440 and 404 BC in the Greek City State of Athens. I Googled "tetradrachm" and found out that one of them was equivalent to four drachmae, which will enable me to ask any Greek person if they can give me four drachmae for my tetradrachm.

Hello to the oldest pair of jeans anyone can find! These Levi's are from 1879, and are just about broken in just right...
Today, the eyes of the sporting world will be on Baltimore's "Old Hilltop," the Pimlico Racetrack, where the hosses run and the alcohol flows. Post time!
