A day later, and it's still too swamped to let me in... I'll keep trying, though.

A long-ago girlfriend made us these for breakfast, and called them glory holes. Seriously, circa 1975. She had no idea, said her family had always called them glory holes.

Firefox, or Mozilla, continues to be the only browser (at least among the biggies) that's for the users, not the trackers and marketers.

Those of you who have cut out family members, how are you doing now? in c/[email protected]

I was intentionally out of contact with the family for about 25 years, and have no regrets. Had a great time without them.

A few of them I've missed, and I've mellowed, so I'm back in contact again but only under my terms, and it's working out nicely. Thanks for asking.
