Sandwich guy was asked when he could give an interview about his ordeal.

He answered, "Lettuce meat tomato."

Asked what his initial reaction was, he said: I was bread for this moment. These were cheesy charges, and I'm just glad to be out of this pickel."

Then reporters threw sandwiches at him.

“Vaccines that resemble viruses generally produce a stronger immune response, while mRNA versions are much quicker and cheaper to make. Now we are getting the best of both worlds, in the form of mRNA vaccines that code for virus-like nanoparticles, rather than just individual proteins”

Green manure...I'm trying it for the first time in my really small boxes. Better than straw (or heaven forfend, cardboard or sacks)

Soil in need of some love? Sow green manure in your garden and you’ll reap the benefits
Plants like lupins, ryegrass and field beans can help fix nitrogen in the soil, suppress weeds and increase biodiversity

“Tattered” instead of “TC” for Tattered Cover or “Bwayna Vista” instead of “Bewnah Vista” or “BV” for Buena Vista.
What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

Such an amazing story
8. Abebe Bikila 🏃🏿🇪🇹

🥇First Ethiopian to win an Olympic gold

Running barefoot, Bikila won the marathon at the 1960 Olympics in Rome and then became the first athlete ever to defend an Olympic marathon title, taking gold in Tokyo in 64

Oh and he broke the world record both times.

It looked like I was going to get extraordinarily lucky for the last crack at the Saturn/Titan transit, but the fog came in before the shadow of Titan was visible. But you can see Titan itself crossing in front of the planet, so it's not a total loss. #Astronomy #Astrophotography
