My S8 Active died. So now I have a Samsung something with slight crack in it.
But it's newer than the s8, Firefox works better on this, and now I see no ads on the phone, so that's good, along with a dark mode plugin.

Today is the day of the big air show, Thunder and Lightning over Arizona.


I saw some of them practicing the other day as they flew over my place of work. They fly pretty close together.

No, you just haven't accepted the goodness that can be bacon. Revoltingest overdoes it, but sometimes bacon is just necessary. Like an official pancake breakfast, the ones where you put the little extra into it and drizzle the bacon with maple syrup as it finishes cooking. Or a fresh croissant roll with bacon, egg and a slice of cheese in the middle. It can also shine with the right burger and the right bacon. Another moment where bacon is good is a BBQ pizza.

Nope, wrong.... bacon is wrong...horrible, disgusting greasy, salty slab of carcinogenic coronary inducing awfulness.....only makes things worse

I use to watch pilots practice and play, living near a small municipal airport and Grissom Airforce Base (been Reserve for awhile though).

I guess it wouldn't be a total ban on Skittles, just those particular ingredients considered toxic and already banned in the EU. The EU version of Skittles is a different version without the toxic chemicals.

The chemicals, currently banned in the European Union, are found in numerous snack staples including Skittles, Ding Dongs (with red heart sprinkles) and a host of other ubiquitous food items.


However, Gabriel doesn't mean to deprive Californians of Skittles and other treats.

"I love Skittles. I love Wild Berry Skittles. I eat them all the time," Gabriel said. "I would vote against a bill to ban Skittles.

"What we're really trying to get them to do is to change their recipes," Gabriel told The Times on Thursday. "All of these are nonessential ingredients."

Skittles and other products still line the shelves of stores in Europe, Gabriel noted, but they have different ingredients.

"I think the overwhelming likelihood of what's going to happen would be that they would make minor modifications to their recipes," Gabriel said.

California lawmakers backing the bill pointed to a number of scientific studies that showed links between the chemicals — which include red dye no. 3, titanium dioxide, potassium bromate, brominated vegetable oil and propyl paraben — and health issues. In one study cited by Gabriel's office, titanium dioxide, used in Skittles as a colorant, was found to be associated with decreased immune responses in rats.

A lawsuit filed last year in California against Mars, which manufactures Skittles, claimed that the colorful confections were "unfit for human consumption" due to titanium dioxide.

Red dye no. 3, titanium dioxide, potassium bromate, brominated vegetable oil and propyl paraben - that's the kind of stuff that's in our candy these days.

And to think we used to sing songs about the Candy Man back in the day.

I have to keep fighting with this TV and that wants to insist "when you purchased this TV you agreed..." but I factually did neither of those things. If my old one had reliablely working buttons I'd just use that. It has an AV port.

You have to pace yourself. At this rate, you will be worn out with, maybe, fifty more years of complaining left....

Not my fault there are no ends to corporate greed that does not acknowledge or recognize rights (including lawful ownership), nor can be held responsible for the infinite supply of stupid people.
And even a rat still in a cage can still cause headaches for the cager with all that rage.
