Hey guys
lots of reminders about pirates with a "y" yet title isn't. and if it's an episode about pirates, why are we talking about the Carolina Panthers??? considering who started the tangent story, it explains it. this should not have been a short stuff. way too much misleading info. It's not a good episode.

McDonald’s journey from humble beginnings to global fame is fascinating. See how its menu differs in Ireland here: https://menudelivered.com/mcdonalds-ireland-menu-prices/.
Bands such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath began their careers as progressive rock on fm stations in the 60's. They're still considered progressive rock to some of us. They incorporate many genres in their music.
I equate Randy Rhoads with Buddy Holly. One cannot imagine what they could have done.
OMG, Steve Harris with bass in Maiden.
Sorry for the third post but I am passionate about this. I wish you had mentioned mom and pop shop consignment stores. Our kiddo, especially as a baby and young child, grew faster than she could possibly wear it out. Borax can disinfect, and again I was able to dress her in much higher quality than we could have otherwise provided. Always bought clothes furniture anything we could on consignment and then I would double consign it. Don't get me started on garage sales LOL.
Shout out to my kiddo who helped finance her PhD by shopping thrift stores, using Zout (that stuffs been around forever) oxyclean soak, sometimes Ritt dye and her sewing machine to refurbished quality clothing and sell it. She also has a killer wardrobe perfectly tailored of brands she could never afford. She and her husband notioned (pun intended) this as they were not loving selling their plasma.
I would love to get back the hours researching something new and then gas going to get it or ordering it online, boxing and labor resources and even the electronic bank resources, server space, for those transactions. I buy things, clothes, and decorate because I like them very much. I want to keep them. BTW, my husband recycled cans and after years surprised me with a 1/2 k diamond pendant necklace (as responsibly resourced as possible).
Eldest of 4 brothers here.My parents were way harder on me.
chass-ISS? I've worked in the automotive industry for years and I've never heard anybody pronounce this word incorrectly before...at least not a man. For the record, chuck...its "chass-EE"...not "chass-ISS"! He pronounced it incorrectly at least three times, even though Josh pronounced it correctly early in the show.
