The drier the air, the longer and further the aerosols float. Moisture
is bad for the virus.

While I agree with you, if you feel you must wear a mask, might as
well do it properly if safety is your aim, for yourself or others.
Personally I feel if my number is on it, sobeit.

But you also look left and right before crossing the street.

In America you should look left, then right, then left again, when crossing the street. In the UK, you do the opposite. American should always remember this important detail when in the UK.

I'm guessing you might if the Queen requested it of you. I can imagine
bending a knee to our fearless leader - but only if his neck was under it.
 
LOL but no, I don't think I would.
 
Bending a knee, besides showing an oath of loyalty or showing respect, can
also be a show of protest/disrespect. Pretty awesome, eh?

OK yes, I see that now! Thanks!
 
The only time I have ever 'bent the knee' was in church:)))

4 hours with your mouth open would be cruel. Even one hour
leaves you with a sore jaw, just holding it open so long.

Yes! That sounds hellish:(

That's the mild Hawaiian kim chee. It's not bad. The hard-core Korean stuff is also good, although you might have to keep the stuff in your garage.

I suppose. I don't like mangos; avocados have always just been tasteless
and greasy (but perhaps I've never tasted an awesome avocado). I'd rather
have exceptionally good tomatoes.

What we can get here is Korean. It's good but you don't want to be the
only one who didn't eat it.

We have a fuerte avocado tree. In a good year it produces more
avocados than we can eat, but only one in every 2 or 3 years is a good
year. They taste great, better than supermarket avocados (which are
probably hass avocados). But it's still a subtle flavour. Great with
an egg and a bit of salt, though.

The Koreans like to keep their kim chee in a second refrigerator to keep the smell separate from other foods and home. I can still remember the first time seeing a full sized refrigerator in my wife's bedroom in her parents condo. That was the nuttiest thing I ever seen. Sometimes, they'll keep a second refrigerator in their garage or patio.

That seems like a very good idea.

Of everything else the tomatoes looked the most edible... WTF are
those brown lumps? I'd have preferred a lot more lettuce with those
tomatoes, perhaps some other veggies too... hold those turds.

The surgery on my left eye was done today. The entire proceedure took
2 1/2 hours, a lot of prep and the anasthesia came very close to
putting me out. I have a hard clear plastic shield over the eye that
has many holes in it, I suppose for moisture to evaporate... the
shield so I don't scratch at night as the area around the eye itches.
They gave me pair of sun glasses. It's too soon for me to tell how
well I can see. I have an appointment with the surgeon tomorrow
afternoon for a checkup. There was no pain but the surgery was a bit
uncomfortable with having to lie perfectly still for so long... the
gurney was rock hard and not at all comfortable. Now that I know what
to expect my right eye will be easy.

Americans are pretty much the only people who use "chili powder" to refer
to the spice blend suitable for making chile con carne. Everybody else
uses it to refer to ground hot peppers.

do they use the term "chili powder" for something else, or not at all?

They use it for ground hot peppers (like our cayenne pepper powder), although
sometimes they spell it "chilli".

When reading international recipes, it's important to consider what
it means when it specifies "chili powder".

Thanks. And thanks for repeating yourself for me. DUH. Maybe next
week I will ask you again. LOL.

If the recipe I'll use is any good, it will take this into account
when giving the settings for the machine. But I can always override.

It sure does and I knew that. But I almost never use butter, always
olive oil or peanut oil.

They can be quite mellow. As in you can carefully pick them up. And
that's feral pythons. But if they bite they can bite good. Tetanus
shot good. We have a resident python, but I don't see him or her
often. I don't go out after dark.
