    I have learned a fair bit over the years and have taken many opinions to heart. I have bought vehicles based on recommendations of geek posters @DankNuggs for example, although he does not post here anymore. I studied up on oil pricing during downturns because I was wrong when arguing with @Hardcore troubadour about the price of oil. At the time I failed to consider that oil companies would produce oil at a loss because the original capital investment was already made and the oil companies just needed to bring in any source of revenue. There are many more, but those are the two obvious ones. Friday night insomnia is a b1tch.

    I presume you are referring to the Malacca and Sunda straights. The Malacca straight runs between Malaysia and the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The sunda runs between Sumatra and the island of Java. Pretty much all shipping traffic between Africa, the Middle East, and India to east Asia must pass through there, so yes, it is probably the most strategic stretch of water on earth. The Chinese know this, and know it is an easy way to cut off their oil. They have taken steps... namely... 1. Construction of naval bases in the Indian Ocean in places like Sri Lanka and Pakistan. 2. They are attempting to build rail and road links to lessen their reliance on this waterway. For example they are constructing ports in Myanmar and links to then transport resources overland from Myanmar into Chinese controlled Xinjiang. 3. Building a canal across the Thai isthmus to bypass the Malacca straight entirely. https://thediplomat.com/2018/04/thailands-kra-canal-chinas-way-around-the-malacca-strait/

    Ah yes, thanks. For some reason “Hank’s” seemed familiar. And the description on the website as well. Still yummy.

    Bummer. I got the bad news 2005, and I'm still kicking around, so look at it as an adjustment. Hey, you are a prolific chef around these parts, so I'm sure you are paying attention to the food details. The rum...don't admit too much to the doctor.

    Masturbatory Sounds like it would be an ornate room where one masturbates, but it's not, that's prolly why I've never used it in a sentence. Follow me. Sir Fandandy is in the Masturbatory, pleasuring himself.

    I think you are right, honey is better than sugar, but I don't think it's the answer. It's still no bueno for me. I'm in the mud with insulin. Admittedly, I walk a fine line. A bunch of white rum with diet soda chasers. So food is very strict as the price to pay. I don't even eat fruit unless it's mostly bitter (lemon, lime, grapefruit). Stick to green vegetables full of fiber mostly, avoid the starchy corn and potatoes et al. I'd say peas, but I like fresh snow peas. I wonder if I could do some kind of take on a green curry chicken dish with Diet Mountain Dew? Put me on Food Network RIGHT NOW!! Guy's Grocery Games with Goons. I didn't mean to derail this thread. Chinese food can be tasty. But, damn, so much sugar.

    "Basement, what basement? I have no idea what you are talking about, Mr Officer?" said the suspect, as he stood on top of the rug concealing the trap door leading to the basement. Neighbors were interviewed that night, consistently saying "He was such a nice guy. I can't imagine he killed over a thousand women. I guess he shouldn't have been off his leash and allowed to run into a sorority" The next night, same neighborhood. "It was such a nice dog. I can't imagine it killed a thousand children. I guess it shouldn't have been off a leash and allowed to run into a PreK Head Start."

    So, diabetes. So I haven't had fast food nor sugar for close to 20 years now. Well, as little sugar as possible. Haven't had a slice of pizza in well over 20 years. I can't remember what a cheese steak tastes like. I'm self-flagellating myself. Chinese food is a challenge to prepare for me, as I like all the heat with the spicy peppers and garlic and savory items, and all the textures and flavors of the vegetables and other odds and ends, but you can't balance it out with any sugar in any sauces, so it remains difficult to pull out a decent dish. And try to avoid any type of noodles and rice. It's become somewhat cliche, but Sriracha is really versatile. But if I could find a dependable recipe for Hot and Sour Soup, I'd be a little bit less miserable.

    I wanted to recommend by favorite Chinatown dim sum place but I cannot remember it’s name and I cannot find it on google maps. Maybe it closed down. On west side of Mott Street just off Barnyard (2 blocks off Canal Street (main road). It was in the basement of another restaurant- fantastic dim sum (except I didn’t know any better and ate chicken feet !!) - I’d eat anything LOL - guy rolled the cart around and I thought it looked good. Didn’t ask what it was until I saw the bill. LOL

    Biden is now saying they are going to look at it and have the justice department step in. Remind me again how just having someone show an ID is racist? Cause we aren’t asking just blacks to show ID. It’s for everyone. You literally need an ID to open a bank account. And I’m SURE all those blacks that’s get government assistance, stimulus checks, food stamps, etc ALL have their IDs and aren’t shy from showing them for that free money. So what’s the problem with showing it when you’re doing something that affects the welfare of everyone in the country?
