    Almost correct. Move Rueben to the very end and that's it.

    I went full Donald Trump on Bill Clinton on a Korean steak torta at Wrap N Roll in Clear Lake the other day.

    That thing was massive — it took two hands to handle it.

    For years, Mackeys Ferry Sawmill in North Carolina relied on exporting its goods to China and Vietnam after a dip in domestic demand for high-quality hardwood. But President Donald Trump’s trade war with China dealt a blow that the mill’s owners say they couldn’t come back from. In July, just months after the president announced his “Liberation Day” tariffs, they decided to shut it down.

    the trade war claims another victim…the business death toll is in the hundreds of thousands

    Not going to lie, the price increases from tariffs made me pause buying new Swiss watches.

    Had this for lunch Thursday, good.

    If you ever get out to Maryland, try the Cloak and Dagger.
    "The cloak and dagger is a culinary masterpiece, thanks mostly to the succulent hot corned beef or pastrami (the pastrami is saltier, and more flavorful), which, when combined with coleslaw and Russian dressing on soft seeded rye bread, transports diners to the most transcendent, satisfying sandwich event they’re ever likely to have."

    How did Switzerland get their tariffs lowered to 15%? They tried all the normal stuff for months. No movement. Then they realized they were dealing with Donald Trump...

    The gold bar was worth $130,000.

    From this Bulwark YouTube video - lots of other "fun" facts about what Donnie and friends have been doing. And by fun, I mean they make me want to gouge my eyes out with a spoon. For instance, "sober" "reformed" RFK still regularly enjoys tripping his balls off on DMT.

    I just order a side of Pho broth. I tried it on a trip to Seattle and got hooked. Saigon Drip Cafe in Seattle - highly recommend.

    Another quality move is, at a cajun/creole restaurant, order a couple of pieces of fried chicken and some gumbo. Dip chicken in gumbo. Profit.
