13 Inverness is where 24 (some accounts record 25) comely maidens were from, who attended a ball at Kerriemuir in the early 1700s. The ball devolved into what all accounts agree was the largest orgy in the English Isles up to that point.

37 Medical examiner determines dead woman found entangled in O’Hare baggage machinery died by suicide

Firefighters responding to a 911 call found the woman’s body entangled in the belt around 7:45 a.m. Thursday in a baggage room near a terminal that serves international flights.

According to police, surveillance footage shows the woman entering the area around 2:27 a.m. Thursday, but it doesn’t show what happened to her. The room where the woman was found is off limits to the public.

53 I've been swimming in the ocean with pelicans and gulls diving all around me because of a bluefish feeding frenzy going on. The 10-15 lb. bluefish were chopping away at a school of spot, with the birds getting the leftovers. I pulled my feet and arms in and just floated, with the fish bumping my body, but not biting me. Bluefish can easily chomp off a finger, toe, or other important parts. It lasted about 90 seconds, then they moved on.

From the Verge:

Disney wants a Florida court to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit at a Disney-affiliated restaurant based on terms of service for the entertainment giant’s website and streaming video services. The company argues that a couple agreed to an arbitration clause when one of them bought tickets to Disney World — and in an even more distant connection, when signing up for Disney Plus years before.

Can't come fast enough. All they had to do was focus on six or eight sandwiches with great ingredients. But nope, had to move to pizza and churros and other bizarre whatever. And the sandwich quality went downhill chasing the trends.

It stinks because that used to be a fairly reliable place to stop and know what you were getting. Now the bread is being kept overnight to save money and the lettuce is wilted and brown for the same reason.

That's fine if I get a discount for the day old ingredients. But full price? I can go to Casa Mexicana for $8.

101 There's a local sub shop that makes great sandwiches. They also charge $20++ for a full size and $12++ for a half sandwich. I only go on special occasions now. Not sure how much longer they can stay afloat. They also close at 6pm because of labor issues. WTF???

Jersey Giant used to only sell foot-longs. If you want a 6", they only knocked a dollar off the price.

Now they sell 6" for what the foot-longs used to cost.

But there's no inflation. Unpossible.

205 Nothing wrong with a Tesla that wouldn't be fixed with a 350 Chevy swap. Well, the only one that looks ok is the big sedan. Nevermind.

YouTuber Rich Benoit put a modern Chevy LS in the big sedan with a sequential manual and kept all the original electronics working and from the outside it looks bone stock. It's called "ICE-T" of course. He's shown it at SEMA twice.

He's been working on putting a 4 cylinder turbodiesel in the smaller Tesla sedan as well.
