Do you carry anything in case you drive into a lake to break the window? I don't but probably should in this state.

I can't imagine actually driving into a lake, but if I suffered a secondary hit from someone else's accident near me, I could see it happening.

the new windows are harder to break, someone invented a special tool you can get, so you can go thru the panic of not being able to find it when you need it LOL. Cuts the seat belt too

I carry a spring loaded center punch.

[from the link, the first thing you should do is unbuckle your seatbelt, then roll down the window, then unbuckle kids]

"seatbelt, window, children, out. Unbuckle your seatbelt, get a window down (the rear passenger windows are ideal if they open because the heavy front of a car will tilt into the water first so the back seat stays dryer longer), unbuckle any children (start with the oldest first so they can escape while you're unbuckled any infants), and get out through the open window"

Baru nuts, also called barukas nuts [actually seeds], are another new 'superfood'. The FDA does not consider anything a superfood, an opinion probably widely shared outside of health food retailers. However, I tried some since they have a lot of vitamins and fiber.

After eating maybe a couple of ounces, my gut seemed to react to them quickly, I don't quite how to describe it. Sort of like eating a slim jim or something, the gut lets you know it knows something new went down the hatch, it seemed like. Might have been my imagination, and no ill effects came later, but I decided maybe you don't want to eat too many at once. For one thing you are loading up quickly on fiber, 5 grams per ounce.

I was looking up something else and came across Vidocq , a very influential first-of-his-type detective of 18th/19th century France. His own criminal background was his strong point!

>>>

Eugène-François Vidocq (1775–1857), the Sûreté’s founding chief ... After a youth of petty criminality, he spent the first fifteen years of his adult life either in prison or on the run, leaving him with little time to pursue a political career. And for a man more at home donning disguises and planning daring jailbreaks, administration wasn’t really his thing.
__

It is hardly surprising, given Vidocq's prominence in the field, that Poe chose Paris as the setting for “The Murders in the Rue Morgue” (Graham's Magazine, April 1841). Although the character of Dupin is not based specifically on Vidocq, he was very clearly developed from the world that Vidocq had created.

How many stories did Poe write about Dupin?

Dupin was featured in three of Poe's stories, establishing another feature of the detective genre–the recurring character.

Raw food advocacy is another one of those health trendy things. Of course, there is the total anti-animal milk people as well.

Other than mostly plants, I eat few raw foods. Tuna, or Salmon? I have the occasional raw oyster, but I always think about the occasional death from doing that.

I would consider drinking raw buttermilk, which I've heard is good, under the right conditions. Those would not include being offered some from some random person, and also not include sampling during bird flu epidemics

So if you get into a conversation about who your favorite classical music composer is, got something for you to pull...

You say your favorite is "Joe Green." When you get a puzzled look, you say " Oh, he is very famous!" [you get another puzzled look or worse] ... acknowledging the puzzlement, you say " Oh, excuse me, wrong language! Giuseppe Verdi !"
