Hi, everybody, I know. Who has time to listen to podcasts. Most of them are redundant and so can be listened to while making chicken pot pie. But every once in a while there is one I have to listen to twice because it acquaints me with a bunch of stuff I never will dive into but which I real

Re: [FRIAM] Breakfast in Santa Fe

I am not sure if Europe is more civilized than America. We have our own problems. In Germany for example there is no speed limit on highways in general. Some people are proud of it, others want to end this freedom because it increases pollution and traffic accidents. Driving 200 km/h (124 mph) c

Re: [FRIAM] Breakfast in Santa Fe

A year or so after we moved from Las Cruces to Seattle, when our son was 17m we heard that one of our son’s Las Cruces friends had died. He and a friend were sitting on a couch playing with a gun and what happened is what you probably expected. —Barry On 22 Oct 2021, at 18:52, thompnicks...@g
