Good Afternoon Amanda!
 
I never had one either. always limited time too.
I had one once. Disappointed. Bread to Rib meat ratio was too high. The ribs were a little too mellow as well.
 
Yes ...It is coffee time...I am back for a while...Think I fell off the earth for about 10 days ..lol..
Lots to do these next few days on the tank...
It has been a slow process but I am not rushing this tank...
Corals are all so happy now...Big difference in a month...
Still holding off putting fish in until xmas week,,,,
Good Morning 1!
 
Good thing your tank isn't in the bedroom... it would look like a strobe light! 🤣 IFKYK!
Good Afternoon Rock!

It's usually okay until we had a block party and the DJ put this on, on loop. We had quite a time getting all the fish back in the tank.

 
Morning y'all!
Have a great Thursday šŸ‘
All prayers are with Kevin today...
Peace āœŒļø everyone and all my good vibes I've got Kevin āœØļø
Good morning Joel!
 
That's why you just go to multiple restaurants and make your own monstrosity, haha.

I do remember that on my travel days to FL, I would see a KFC Taco Bell combo. So you could leave with a couple burritos and a KFC 10 piece bucket
We had a Long John Silvers/Taco Bell combo here so that you could remix your own fish tacos but it closed. We liked to call it Taco John's.

KFC does have some good chicken, but I think I prefer Popeye's... not that I go to either very often though.
I like both of them but prefered Cane's. I can't really eat any of them now though. It seems fried foods bother me a little more each year since going gall-bladder-less.
 
Good afternoon Tom!
I didn't want to respond beyond a good morning until I was caught up since I frequently post comments to events long since altered and just look like I went to public school (I did but I rarely admit it). It sounds to me like your doctors are forming a plan for you. Hopefully it skips a couple intermediate steps and gets right to fixing you up. You are in our prayers.

I seem to recall that we had a LJS, KFC, Pizza Hut combo at one time out in Phoenix. Unless I'm misremembering.

I seem to recall one as well. No idea where though as we used to be all over the valley almost daily.
