I Tried several egyptian foods i havent had the chance to try yet. It was delicious but i have so many left overs.

The white dish is Rice Muammar, the brown looking rice is "Oriental Rice" which isnt very oriental by american standards, its rice with nuts and seasoning, the sausages are called Mombar and is lamb casing stuffed with meat and rice and spices, and finally the meat stuffed inside the pita is called Hawawshi and the bread is a bit crispy and amazing.

I have to admit, basking in the glow of an unshielded open nuclear reactor for a few hours can be a surprisingly relaxing past time.

@freemo that is quite the gift. The "perpetual" is a valuable complication. Unfortunately these things can cost a lot to be serviced. Rolex is a damn cartel, and I don't say that lightly.

I'm not good at estimating watch values, but here I go anyway: $3-5k is your floor, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it valued well over $10k.

@freemo And the key to being unhappy, for logical completeness:

Sing like a dragon
Invest like an ogre
Eat like and Elf
Crack Skulls like Tom Bombadil
Fart like a hobbit
And dance like a Dwarf

(Note, not a real suggestion: you'll be tone-deaf, poor, hungry, passive, gassy, and clumsy 😂 )

@freemo Hit it with a hammer. If it shatters into a million pieces, it was priceless.

So some time back I was gifted with a Rolex from an investor friend who I managed to make a lot of money for. I never wear it, only time I do is if I'm wearing a tuxedo which is rather rare. Its kind of a wasted gift on me especially because I hear they can be rather valuable. I wonder what mine might be worth.

Along with bribes and all other normal things you totally want to tell the government

So apparently on average i get one new follower for every two toots i make. Not bad turn over id say.

@freemo

Progress in human space flight fell off a cliff after the Apollo missions.

The accomplishments of the Apollo program are even more amazing when you consider that we went to the moon while simultaneously fighting a major overseas proxy war against the Chinese and fighting among ourselves here in the US over civil rights, women's liberation, and many other things.

Then Nixon resigned, while the country fell into massive crime and corruption and advancement in human spaceflight stalled.

It may be 66 years before we even return to moon again.

If you want to understand how much of a failure that is, watch 2001: A Space Odyssey. In the 60s, that's where people genuinely thought we'd be by the year 2001 -- 20 years ago. Instead we've been stuck in low-Earth orbit for 50+ years.

The key to being happy in life:

Eat like a hobbit
Invest like a dragon
Crack skulls like a Dwarf
Dance like an elf
Sing like Tom Bombadil
And fart like an ogre

I bought a pedometer and im shocked at just how many pedophiles it detects in a day. It seems everytime i take another step it detects another pedo! They are hiding everywhere, watch yourselves out there.

It is truly mind boggling that in a single persons lifetime we went from inventing the first plane and flying for the first time, to being on the moon. Could you imagine being the person who lived for those years and seeing that.

Now we are arguing with people who think covid and viruses in general dont exist and the earth is flat. Might be another few thousand years before we start progressing again.

A bidet is like having a thousand dancing angels lick your butthole clean. I highly recommend.
