That's redundant. Any place using "Philadelphia" or ”Philly" in the name is too far away. 😁

With a few exceptions. I just learned of an expat in Freiburg, Germany, who serves a really good one. He found a good local roll supplier. Looking forward to trying it out next time I'm there.

FWIW, I first used email in 1980 at Sperry Univac. It was part of the "office automation system" we were developing that was going to replace typewriters. I worked more on the word processing and printing side.

This is an ethics case I assign every semester. Thanks for the update!

Sorry... A bit hard to draw Mayan number glyphs on a phone.

That's one of the main lessons I learned from being in a PhD program: all academic paper titles must use a colon.

Glad to see the SOB in TRE with the Pikachu hat. Yes, someone I know.

Uh-oh! Likelihood of confusion!

Expect a cease & desist from Frito-Lay's lawyers. 😜

No, it's fine. 😜

The appropriate SoB chant is:
"You all came in a van, 🎶
You all came in a van,
There's only f***ing 10 of you,
You all came in a van." 🎶

Actually, kudos to the Pittsburgh fans for being there on a wet, cold night. That's dedication.

Mine actually improved recently, and it showed sources for a change. And this time it didn't say I'm a serial entrepreneur. But most of it was based on LinkedIn, so... no real added value.

I'm already enrolled in a Pennsylvania state study of PFAS exposure, thanks to a nearby naval air station. Fortunately our municipal water supply is now filtered.

OTOH, rain rolls right off me and I never get a stain. 😜

That's clearly lox, sir. 😜
