    @Mik said in How about a floating drive-in?: It's a fun town. We are chock full of live theater companies, have a great symphony and opera company, several great art museums, a ton of fine dining. It's a very visually interesting city as well. I forget, are you the city whose river catches fire or is that Cleveland?

    Makes no difference to me either way. Still the same football team with the same colours. Edmonton Elks is probably a even better name if they choose it. Helluva lot more elk in this area than eskimos. Don't even miss the game on TV. Maybe they should should just dissolve the team?

    Indeed, they have to rest quite a bit. It takes a lot of energy to rev up those little wings. The alpha males and females use their rest time to scan the area and protect their territory, including their favorite feeders. When there's an unwanted hummer going to a feeder, that's when the excitement starts. Much chasing, dive bombing, soaring up high, and chattering. It's like watching planes in an aerial dogfight.

    @Loki said in Are we really doing this again?: I know someone well who’s great great grandparents were taken to a church in Gaziantep, locked in and burned alive. No question from that person’s perspective of a Turkey-Russia proxy war but also the painful genocide memories. It all gets very complicated very quickly of course, imagine Russia being your benefactor. My FIL is Armenian. His dad wrote a book about the genocide, which the family somehow lived through. It's interesting stuff, especially from the American policy perspective. It's weird we just never acknowledged that it happened until W of all people. Horrifying history on their end, strange on ours.

    @LuFins-Dad said in Dinner tonight for real: @jon-nyc nice...We had a couple small Delmonicos, but had a ton of grilled vegetables. Grilled onions are becoming a favorite.[image: 1595123516562-1b308b34-0c9d-401b-8099-695d4344b96d.jpeg] Looks great. Right now, peach season is about over down here, but grilled peaches are pretty good. Might make a good dessert to go with the theme...
