I was going to guess Minnesota when you said garbage plates. But I guess that’s different too. Wisconsin (where I am) has tons of cranberry bogs.

Cold soda, pour a short burst of soda over the ice to “rinse” it and prevent the texture of the ice from stripping the carbonation (same thing that happens when you put mentos in soda). It also fills the glass with as much carbon dioxide as possible, displacing the oxygen. Then tip the glass slightly and pour against the glass and between ice cubes about half way, rest for just a second (not completely) and finish pouring.
Ice from a home freezer is completely frozen, but a dedicated ice maker for restaurants or gas stations will have ice that is still wet which makes this far easier.
The absolute easiest and best way I have found is a Qarbo bottle. Which is a brand of home carbonator that allows you to carbonate any liquid and slowly release the gas. I will fill it with ice and soda, then recarbonate it before shaking it while pressurized.
Yes, I’m an American.
My allotment would be taken up by my wife and kids. So I’d have to ask.
Is cheese curds a thing where you are? If so, I might be where you are.
Technically the entire bag all at once will raise blood sugar higher, causing a bigger spike. The liver can’t deal with that much, so it converts the excess to fat faster than if it is spread out. The bigger problem is making it a habit of surprising your metabolism with huge calorie spikes with starvation in-between. One time isn’t bad enough to be concerned with. Weekly, or even daily will wreck your liver (non alcoholic fatty liver disease or NAFLD is just a couple steps away from cirrhosis)
Also, I’m no doctor nor do I have any background in the medical field. I just have a more progressed version of NAFLD from eating things like Oreos with both hands for forty years.
They did. Diesel steam was the main source of steam over time. Coal was used for a relatively short period of time. Wood for even shorter before that. Jupiter (the engine from Central Pacific that met I. That famous photo of driving the Golden Spike on the Transcontinental Railroad) was wood fired while it’s Union Pacific counterpart was more modern, and coal fired. But my grandad ran Diesel Steam his whole career.
Today there isn’t much nostalgia for Diesel Steam. So a lot of the working museum pieces are coal fired. I can’t remember if Big Boy, from UP, is diesel or coal. I think it’s diesel though.
I’m a railroader not a foamer.
But an insane president will bluster about things he doesn’t want to actually do (like Canada and Greenland) as a distraction to keep us focused on this nonsense while he raids the government coffers for all the retirement money he can get his grubbly diseased hands on.
If teleportation gets invented, countries will cease to exist. Instead you will have Polities (polity). Boarders and location would have nothing to do with what polity you lived in.
As an American, I absolutely love this.
Zero symptoms. It’s something very common, and usually discovered by coincidence. But I’m down 40 pounds so far. My grandmother died of non-alcoholic cirrhosis. It was horrifying to watch as a teen. Now that I’m in my forties this diagnosis, which is common, seriously scares the hell out of me. So I take it as a good thing that I am using to make lifelong changes. Crossing my fingers. I still want to lose 20-30 pounds. If nothing else I’m saving great money avoiding the convenience food I abused on a daily basis. And I’m getting really into working out and am hoping to get some “gains” in the next couple months.
