    Might.
    Don't know but I'll probably keep buying the seeds.

    You can't make pulled pork without fat! What did he have for sauces?

    so low in alcohol that you probably would
    have no trouble with it. The good news was
    that it wasn't hugely sweet, either.

    Hi Michael,

    landscapes in the 19th century. Another factor, too,
    is the war damage - there's all kinds of incentives
    to preserve those unintentionally open spaces.
    War times always look beyond to peace and beyond that.
    And the survivors do the best with what they have.
    Surprising how well some of them do with so little.

    Were it not so, there wouldn't be humans any more.

    Probably so.

    The wind deflector I can see. Premium gas never made
    any kind of sense to me.
    I can, to a point.
    The sources I see indicate that unless you have an
    older high-performance engine that you want to use in
    a high-performance way, high octane is unnecessary.

    Had a > small engine, with a turbo boost.

    How old a model is it?

    It was a 2016 Ford Escape. No longer in our possesion, I presume running
    around Utah somewhere. Our son in law sold it at the South Jordan, UT
    Car Max---same place we bought the truck.

    Might.
    Don't know but I'll probably keep buying the seeds.

    One does what one's comfortable with.

    Yes, and I don't use a lot of them at a time so there's not a
    significant celery taste.


    I was once in the hold area of the A380, and it was kind
    of cushy, but that, as the joke goes, was the demo.

    All right, remind me to ask you about it in September.

    I'd still rather have the fat, than the sauce.
