An American tourist is visiting Russia, and he's talking with a Russian about the fact that not many people in Russia own cars.
American: "I can't believe you don't have cars here! How do you get to work?"
Russian: "We take the bus, or the subway. We have public
transportation everywhere."
A: "Well, how do you go on vacations?"
R: "We take the train."
A: "Well, what if you want to go abroad?"
R: "We don't ever want go abroad."
A: "Well, what if you really HAVE to go abroad?"
R: "We take tanks."
@literary I have a black 80 GB iPod Classic that still works fine, except the screen is cracked.

@jussipekonen I have a stick-type iPod Shuffle (the one without controls other than a switch) plus a 6th gen Nano (watch type) and somewhere there's a 5th gen Nano but I can't find it at present. Do they count?

I had an almost incoherently over-spiced goat curry with rice for dinner at a Sri Lankan cafe. The meat was very tender but so over-spiced it was otherwise tasteless. Amazingly, I've had no gastric reflux issues from that meal.
Scenario: You have two coloured candles, one red, the other green.
Which candle burns longer; the red one or the green one?
Neither. They both burn shorter.
@whoisashygirl Thanks, alas, at 87 I doubt recovery will be speedy. All we can hope for is easing of the pain she's enduring.
@kdfrawg Especially as I overstayed the 2-hour limit for that space. I displayed a valid ticket on the dashboard for the first 90 minutes then used the app for 1 hour & 1 minute in total.
