  1. Did you stop by the Taco Bell in Pacifica aka the best Taco Bell in the world?
  2. A few more ideas: Wave organ - go around high tide The SF City Guides - free walking tour. Lots of interesting topics and the guides are good: http://www.sfcityguides.org/current_schedule.html Ferry Building - Farmer's Market on Sat morning/early Sat afternoon - good food, good views (go the back of the Ferry Building)
  3. This website has some good ideas: https://thepointsguy.com/guides/why-families-should-use-british-airways-avios-points-for-a-beach-vacation/ We ended up buying tickets to LAX and using Avios for the LAX to Maui flight.

    A little bit of a stretch for Anderson Ln but this thread needs more traffic.. Went to Julie's Noodles in the Target shopping center on 183 & Ohlen. Had the spicy beef noodle soup, which was delicious and spicy. I was sweating, drinking water and couldn't stop eating them. Wife had the soup dumplings, which she said was "okay", so may have been an off night for soup dumplings because reviews for the place have been raving about the soup dumplings. Atmosphere is zero. It's similar to Asia Cafe. Serve yourself water/hot tea, silverware, bowls, etc.
  5. An interesting article with very interesting statistics about the homeless issue in SF: https://projects.sfchronicle.com/sf-homeless/24-hours-homelessness/
  6. I highly recommend eating some turtle after visiting the Turtle Centre. Putting conservation into action (and your mouth).
  7. She's cracking me up with her "Honestly, Jesus still loves me" statements after having sex before marriage. She seems very torn between banging hot guys vs staying on the straight and narrow Christian path.

    Someone needs to bring back the sushi trailer that was in front of Lowe's about a year or two ago. That trailer made me laugh every time I walked by it.
  9. Just went to T&C in April. If you want the "picture of the Caribbean beach on postcards" experience, go to Chalk Sound. Amazingly beautiful. Taxis are crazy expensive. Even the official T&C tourist website recommends not taking a taxi. We rented a car. I enjoyed turning on the windshield wipers repeatedly when I was trying to use the turn signal (cause it's reversed). Also using a turn signal and not just pulling out in front of other cars makes you a tourist. As recommended above, if you are up for an adventure, go to North Caicos/Middle Caicos on the ferry and rent a car. Dragon Cay beach has a huge cave on the beach and Bambarra is shallow and you can walk to a giant sandbar. We stayed for a few days in North Caicos and that was very interesting. It's a whole different lifestyle on North/Middle compared to Provo. Chinson's Grill is tasty. Friendly people but not much atmosphere. Groceries are expensive:
  10. This season of bachelorette is so boring and the guys so bland that my wife is actually getting tired of the show. So that's good news.
  11. Chicken or steak bowl at Cabo Bob's on Anderson Goat soup and goat meat at Taco More (Parkfield and Rundberg) Lots of breakfast options at La Casita (Anderson Ln by railroad tracks) Gyro meat on salad at Halal Bros (Braker by Metric)
  12. I felt the same way. Seemed like we were missing 10 minutes of exposition.
  13. Will Smith made two movies - I Am Legend and Hancock. Both movies start strong but the second half is atrocious. Each movie is 1/2 of a good movie. My brilliant idea - combine the two movies! Drunk, 'doesn't give a shit' superhero vs thousands of zombies.
  14. A question about Black Summer:

    I fell on that grenade. Went there about two weeks ago. It's very okay. It has the normal broccoli and beef & kung pao chicken type dishes on the menu plus a few spicier dishes, like spicy fish. The american chinese dishes were okay and the few other spicier dishes were slightly above average. The meal was nothing memorable. If someplace close is the number one priority, it'll do. I'd rather drive the extra 10 minutes to Rice Bowl Cafe.

    Gyros

    Halal Bros or Halal Corner There are some more to try but those are the best (to me) so far
  17. Good news about exercising later in life: If people start to exercise in midlife, even if they have not worked out for years, they can rapidly gain most of the longevity benefits of working out. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/27/well/move/what-your-exercise-habits-might-say-about-how-long-youll-live.html?action=click&module=Discovery&pgtype=Homepage
  18. So we can apricots and cheese to the extensive list of things that Colton is afraid of.
  19. Quadrangle in San Antonio http://www.jbsa.af.mil/library/visitorinformation.asp See cool military history and feed the wildlife
  20. His biggest fear is women. Handsome heterosexual man in the NFL who is a virgin. His biggest fear is women.
  21. Better Off Dead
  22. As good as Spider-Man 2...maybe even better.
