Barry,

 DS>   And, I worked at Burger King for 5 years 40 years ago. At least
 DS> it wasn't at Borg Burgers -- "We do it OUR WAY...your way is
 DS> irrelevant".

 BM> Though sometimes it seems that one went there: "I ordered without
 BM> pickles and got them!".

  Been there, done that, got the ketchup and mustard stain. :P

  I used to not like them, but I especially like the dills. There used
to be a steakhouse called Western Sizzlin' (there may still be one in
the north central Arkansas community of Clinton (I doubt it's related
to Bill and Hillary <G>), where I would order an extra plate of their
pickles, as they had such a good flavor. Now, I can eat dill pickle
potato chips, and ice cream sandwiches...and let folks wonder about 
me. <G>

 BM> Yes - heard that on the news yesterday (Novemeber 9) - sad but not
 BM> unexpected.  During the obituary clip (life in review) there was
 BM> mention of no replacement had been announced though a video clip did
 BM> show him saying he would like a female as a replacement.  I can't think
 BM> of a woman to fit his spot but thinking Ken Jennings might be somewhat
 BM> groomed: already part of the Clue Crew, though haven't seen him too
 BM> often.  Is a very popular contestant, has some hosting experience with
 BM> his podcast and probably some other events.  I'm thinking he would be a
 BM> good transitional person.

  I thought of Ken Jennings as well...and I agree with your point about a
transitional person.

 DS>   Just don't get between the dog and the fire hydrant. :P

 BM> Nor too close!

  The other day, a dog peed on me...a bad sign. :P

 DS>   Close only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and at the
 DS> drive in. <eg>

 BM> I wonder if they now have COVID-19 Rules?  If you're within six
 BM> feet....

  If you can smell the fart, you're too close. <G>

 DS>   They say "you are what you eat". Well, what are you if your
 DS> favorite meal is rump roast?? :P

 BM> You're in the hot seat?!

  I guess so.

 DS> ospreys up on his tower, and he couldn't do any work on it until
 DS> the winter, after they flew south, as it were. Birds or insects
 DS> will attack you repeatedly, if they feel threatened.

 BM> So will little ol' ladies with purses!

  Just ask Arte Johnson with Ruth Buzzi from Laugh-In. <G>

 DS>   They have a prescription for being overmedicated (having been
 DS> prescribed too many medicines, so one more won't hurt). :P

 BM> So a prescription for if too many presciptions!

  Basically, yes.

 DS> Apparently some of these stars needed "a nose job", but for the
 DS> risk of losing their singing ability, they didn't do it.

 BM> I've heard (no pun intended) some overweight singers have lost their
 BM> distintive voice when the lost weight.

  Interesting.

Daryl

... I avoid things that make me fat: scales, mirrors, photos.
