No helicopter food delivery? She was definitely holding back on the super foods. She must have liked you, to not spook you away with the show of wealth.
Bill Gates definitely hit the late burger and roast beef joints in Cambridge and Boston back in the day.
Good job remembering where you came from my friend. Keep up the good work. You should also remember to pat yourself on the back every once In a while. Be honest and true to yourself. Help the next generation move in the right direction.
Not mine, but my uncle's story. In the late 70s or 80s, can't remember, my uncle was a young man in Boston, MA. New transplant to the US with limited English working minimum wage at a famous hotel in town, by famous I mean all the rock and roll stars stayed in this hotel when they were in Boston. There are other wild stories for another day.
On this day his manager was scrambling to look for him and told him that he had to drive a VIP somewhere. He was speechless, and asked wtf is going on ? He had a humble tiny hatchback manual drive ford fiesta? with only a driver's side mirror. The artist was Blondie and she was late for the show. They wanted the most non descript car to zip halfway through the clogged city to the venue.
He was like wtf, but fuckkit here we go.
He drove the Blondie singer from the hotel to the venue quick and easy like superman and saved the day.
I have to go back and ask what conversation they had.
Food waste is bad. In the US composting is becoming more popular. Even those a holes in Vegas are turning food waste into methane based fuel production. Covid started up a bunch of organizations doing second chance food distribution for food pantries. It's hard in the US due to strict rules on food safety and lawsuit risk.
Imagine you change the script a little and it's you getting a once in a lifetime unexpected VIP experience at your favorite venue to see your favorite celebrity/person. I think food waste might not be at the top of your concerns.
It's been a long time since I read The Catcher in the Rye. A modern version of it would have Holden Caulfied somehow have this experience and be tormented by both sides of it, including your point of view. I'm not sure what he would do with the framed base and ticket afterwards.
Wow, that's a dream ballpark experience for a true fan. I feel glad for you. That's really cool.
Good for you! Steak with a lump of crab please !
There is always a small audience who responds to this type of message, most likely outside a first world country. The problem is that they spam broadcast to everyone, of which 99.99% laughs at it and ignores it. Those who do respond are vulnerable to the scam.
Some rings promise good wages overseas, and when people buy in to the scam they end up enslaved in a warehouse overseas.
This is a low cost spam message to find more victims to fill the overseas jails filled with workers committing high tech crimes.
I'm not familiar with this points system, but it has a bad smell of monopoly changing of the rule.
The real world application fields convert these theories into smaller easier to understand rules that you can hold, touch, taste, and smell. A microchip groups a ton of sub micro scale components working together as a factory to produce a device that is used to make another device , etc. Each one of those sub scale components was meticulously designed to work in a certain way using well understood rules. We likely do not have the understanding of lower level quantum-ish magic that makes it work, but we do know how to build real things with our simpler rules.
Me too. Thanks goodness he's still alive. Barely. I'll ask him and post followup. I wish she could read this post and give some background
