Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

That sandwich actually sounds like a pretty good idea, but I'm sure Panera has found a way to make it suck.

Can anyone recommend a movie that is on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon prime video that meets the following qualifications:

Not a chick flick
Not Sci fi or horror genre
Not Marvel or other comic book derived BS

I'm looking for something that the wife and I would enjoy. Need a diversion tonight to escape the ***t fest going on now.

TIA

Three-man, ad-hoc subcontract, drywall and finish crew are here. I hope they're healthy because today there are no huge holes in the house to provide ventilation.

We watched Official Secrets on Netflix last night. It was good and based on a true story about an intelligence officer in England who leaked info regarding England’s participation in the last Iraq war.

For many Americans, this is the PATH to needle drugs. (you still have to inject insulin, right?)

Sounds like a MotD material - overlay of Panera locations and needle drug use. Get on it, Velo Vol

Side query -

What's the bigger health problem in the US: obesity or illicit needle drugs?
