Dont you just hate when you have this book you have read a while ago and want to re read BUT cannot remember its titile :-\ :-\

Believe a Russian author, detective goes into looking for murderers but he has to "plug/drug" himself to go into a mental/mind world to catch the killers.
I suppose a matrix/mnemonic style film but definitely older than either
Someone recommended on the Dem.  ??? ??? ???

ah, the shortages I run into are strange and nebulous. For instance, the only tomato juice I've been able to find lately is from the state, and it is some truly vile stuff.

I got some very nice horseradish and had one of the most watery bloody mary's I've ever had.

The lack of decent cheese selection has me reconsidering grocery delivery.

I get why you'd shop there, since it's easier than getting run over by inattentive drivers.  They don't have a wide selection of basic foods there, sadly, so much of what's on offer has been messed with by someone else.

I just heated some turkey from last night's dinner and had a can of Green Giant corn.  I probably got it for free with some kind of CVS Thanksgiving deal years ago, but I'm trying to use up what's in the pantry.  I wish I could drop off some of our excess for you but you might as well be on the moon, given the distance.

I like to experiment with different foods. For instance, I could make my own refried beans, but instead I've been buying different brands to see which ones I like best.

One interesting technique I saw recently was someone who sheet pan cooks his ground beef, then he breaks it up with gloves. I've never done that before, but I might try it some day.

I don't like walking to the grocery store as I have to cross an artery to get there, and a lot of people make right turns without looking at that corner. I don't want to get hit.

So I buy a lot of weird poo at dollar tree.

I also find this contrast highly amusing. Smokes is hitting up a place that has a century of tradition and innovation. I'm eating packet meat.
