There's also Highland Park whisky, which was the first thing to come to my mind.

This was my dad's scene too. Was a hell raiser, but never wanted to talk much about those crazy years. But he did tell me how important Hank and all these cats are. That always stuck with me.

So basically, Hamtramck and Highland Park were tax havens for Ford and Dodge.

Same to you, JakeGould. I saw Mt. Sinai is doing antibody testing. Maybe they would be interested in your plasma.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:35pm

@ y_ddraig_las, yeah, that's good stuff!

@Mr. P: Negotiations are ongoing -- she might be a guest star OF A SORT.

@adamp: Right?! It was a highlight?

Wait, Becky, "old"?!
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:35pm
Handy Haversack:

(Sorry, @adamp: I meant "highlight!"!)
  8:36pm
JakeGould:

@mb: I submitted a request to be considered for it and haven’t heard back yet. They ask if you were officially tested and I wasn’t since it happened to me before the March wave of illnesses in the U.S. So lack of testing means my plasma stays in me until someone decides, “Hey… Let’s bleed this guy…”
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:36pm
Mr. Pumpy:

If I'm ever called out in a court of law...that is evidence that I distance myself from creepy dudes by thanking them. I am not self congratulatory, this will have been proven prior to that slam dunk! I think I doth preemptively protest too much.
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:37pm

@Becky: Not sure it ever came out on 45, but Kate is requesting Lucinda Williams "Side of the Road" or, if only SOME LW songs were on 45, "Passionate Kisses."

JakeGould:

In other news, I witnessed my first run on food being given away by charity in my neighborhood. Some Muslim cation parked a truck and was given out 10x10 boxes of food on my corner just as I went outside. Seeing people with head scarves and face masks run to a U-Haul with arms extended and pushing and shoving. Yeah, no 6 foot distance, but people ran up, grabbed boxes and ran away in seconds. So crazy.

@Becky: Welp, I still haven’t hard back from them. So hey… No idea what the deal is. I’m A+ which is very basic in the world of blood types. Who knows!

JakeGould:

You’re welcome. I literally said “Oh!” out loud when I figured that out.

@Handy: The only place I get an A+ consistently is in my blood!

Also, when I was uninsured and I donated blood — to make sure I didn’t have anything because they screen the blood — I donated so many that I eventually became a member of the Brooklyn Methodist Hospital “Gallon Club.”

This and my “Duncan Yo-Yo Champ” badge I won as a kid mean so much to me.
