The POM

Flights are getting cheaper here. There’s a new discount airline here called Lynx Airlines. $39 Vancouver-Calgary. I asked Isa if she wanted to try it and she’s always game so I bought a couple of tickets. On June 15, we are going to fly to Calgary at 8 am and return home at 8 pm. No baggage. Not even a carry-on. I might bring my man-purse. She’ll bring her woman-purse, but the small one. $176 for the trip, plus perhaps another $100 for a rental car. Call it $300 for the whole trip, including the Skytrain to the airport. Less than dinner at a fancy restaurant.

Of course, it could be a disaster. I’ll tell you on June 16.

I look forward to it. I have never been that car into …Alberta is it?

I have been to Banff, Lake Louise, and Jasper nation parks. Those where stunning. (1996 I think it was? Whener the $2 Canadian coin came out)

9pm time for sleep. ‘See’ tomorrow.

Yes, Alberta. It’s our Texas. Lots of oil. Lots of cowboys. The men are men and the sheep are nervous. I lived there for some years. I didn’t hate it but I am happy to be in Vancouver now. It’ll be nice to see the place again, however.

Sleep well. Hasta mañana.

oh good

Do they have sushi in Calgary? Cowboy sushi?

They have prairie oysters, which are disgusting.

Ewwww

If that’s what you took from my post, I can only imagine how inaccurate a book review might be.

Ahh, you’re sweet. I wasn’t expecting you to change it lol but I’m happy you did.
I don’t know what you mean by “how messed up”Ukraine is, although I do know they are corrupted. Russia is trying to fix that but citizen resistance is delaying their efforts.
Your POM implied they are a demonic Satan worshipping country, which may be true but I don’t know that.
The new POM is nice. Thank you

nobody remembers napolean anymore
except people that read books

Does anyone have any guesses what the next POM is going to be? Sushi??

Lol. The picture Reg posted is probably what a Greek pizza should look like, but I’ve never seen one like it.

It looks like glorified junk food.

Greek pizza is probably one of the more healthy pizzas you can order…

Looks really good but I get fat on pizza.

Only a little healthier than mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, olives, pineapples, garlic and tomatoes. It’s still glorified junk food, unless you scrape the top off and throw away the dough.

Interesting. I find NY style much healthier than greek pizza. Greek pizza here is not that beautiful looking pizza Reg posted.

It is made with the following layers.
