rravenwood reacted to Lectryk in Political Discussion Thread (With Rules)
In N Out isn't publically traded, so they don't have the 'can't let the shareholders value drop' driver (also a reason why the quality of product is better). I don't think they franchise either (for the same reason - quality).

A Momentary Lapse of Reason: Remixed & Updated (Surround mix) by Pink Floyd, followed by Ammonia Avenue (5.1 mix) by the Alan Parsons Project, and now A Trick of the Tail (5.1 mix) by Genesis. Music for puttering about the house and reading newspaper sites.

rravenwood reacted to DShomshak in Extra! Extra! Read All About It!
From The Economist: The bad news is that climate change is forecast to reduce the area where current favored coffee spe ies can grosw. The good news is that there are losts of other species of coffee, with other favored climate ranges. Agronomists are hard at work studying them, with an eye to replacing/supplementing coffea arabica and coffea robusta, or crossbreeding to create a hardier plant.

Unfortunately, my uncle received the Last Rites earlier today. His cancer had spread. It was the chemo that destroyed his heart, which had up to then been healthy.

rravenwood reacted to Chris Goodwin in Is Hero still your "go-to" rpg system?
Or an avater of a god of chaos.
Why doesn't Batman kill the Joker? Suppose he has killed the Joker. More than once. Every time he does, a short time later, months at most, someone else pops up as the Joker -- always in Gotham City -- and usually kills a bunch of people as his first outing.
Why do you think that in one appearance he was Jack Napier, in another he was Arthur Fleck, another as Jack Oswald White...
Kill one, the chaos god bides a while then selects some other poor soul to be the next Joker and possesses him. The cycle starts again.
Why hasn't the Batman figured this out? Why is this god of chaos obsessed with him? Why does he always come back in Gotham City?
Why can't DC writers come up with a story at least as interesting as this?

For all of you RUSH fans out there, I just wanted to let you know that Aaron Allston's Strike Force Universe had a hero named By-Tor and another (a canine) named Snow Dog.
