    I actually got a busy signal when calling a number recently from my cell phone. I hadn't heard that noise in years.

    Correction, Zima wasn't back this year, but it was in 2017 and 2018.
    Zima (drink) - Wikipedia

    Zima isn't bad. White claw though. :fart:

    My wife tried a ton of different hard Seltzer's this summer, trying to find ones that actually tasted good. Truly seltzer is a good one. O think bon & Viv and the Natty light stuff were the only two she didn't try.

    Speaking of Seltzer's, while in New England this year, I discovered Grannies flavored Seltzer's. OMG. Delicious( not the black cherry flavor though) No calories, cheap, AND has about as much caffeine as MTN dew. While I brought a case back home, I'm trying to find it locally. We can get it on Amazon at worst. I didn't try the Coco latte, but the rest were all good, besides the black cherry.

    For sure there is one thing I've noticed for the past umteen years is that people don't seem to be able to have any fun unless they are spending dollars. Like the simple games that kids used to play; do they ever get played now? Or must all the kids have the super phones to entertain them. Also people seem to have to have things in the cities like music festivals or any of a dozen other things. Seems they can't make their own fun anymore.

    Also drive around in the summertime and notice how many people, kids and adults actually spend any time enjoying their yards; it is a rare thing anymore. I remember thinking that so many times when out riding my bicycle; nobody out enjoying their lawns. What are they for? Just to mow? And why do people have to spend thousands of dollars just to keep their grass mowed? Well, I'd better stop now...

    Agreed.

    I did however see a teenager sitting on a swing set in his yard, actually swinging. He did have his phone in his hand though. ;)
