So yeah... that's about it. oh wait, one more thing, I'm just curious: have you ever been to the UK?

Funny thing about these frozen treats in the NE... the first time I was in Boston I ordered a chocolate "milkshake" to take back to my room and I got chocolate milk! It was just "shaken" milk with chocolate syrup. It was wonderful and I drank it, but I learned quickly the differences between the regions and how to how to order ice cream - in any fashion - while in New England. LOL.
I LOVE a true Boston "accent" - it's a crack up to us West Coast folks who don't have an accent of any kind, yeah? ;-)

Damn, this is disappointing. 24+ hours gone by, and the guest of honor remains a no show. Hard to believe he wouldn't want to come back and take part in this wicked pissa of a quiz!

Yep, I'm sure that is it...and I think if I recall, and forgive me as it was many years ago (right after I finished serving in 'Nam) the last time I was driving through Mass'B' ( /default_cool.png...that's what we call it, they had super spotty internet coverage...could be weeks or months or...13 DAYS before service is restored.hooter1 said:

Well thank you all for the compliments!! Wicked awesome!! Ya, I get the accent thing A LOT!! To answer some questions - I have never been to the U.K. Maybe someday though, who knows? I grew up in a small town called Wilmington, MA - about 25 minutes north of Boston on 93 - hooter1, I'm sure you know 93!! But ya, Wilmington is small, however, the Boston Bruins do have a practice arena there and I grew up not to far from it... I've retrieved many a hockey stick from there. Oh, by the way, HUGE Bruins fan!!
Too easy - Lobsta
Cah
Bah
Chowda
Butta
Yahd
Smaht
Pahka
hmm, a bubbla is where the lovely "dirty water" comes out
a parker (or a pahka) is a light jacket - right?
Most used word in Boston?? Wicked.
Damn I'm good /default_smile.png
I grew up in a small town called Wilmington... But I've lived in Bedford - I went to UMASS, Amherst which is a HUGE party school... which is why we call it ZooMass..

Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢

Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm

I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start

I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.

I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.

Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
- R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award

Maelstrom:
I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
