The Portuguese have a term called "saudade" for that. I've seen it described as a sense of melancholy or yearning or nostalgia that makes you happy and sad at the same time. I don't think there's really a direct 1:1 English translation. It's the kind of happy-sadness you get when you think about you...

I wonder if the photo was geo-tagged ("come arrest me at x, y coordinates") or if anyone else in the photo was talking about the party on socials and that's how they located him. Either way would be suitably hilarious.

I remember that he had a show called that, but I don't remember anything else about it. Like, was he a weather man or a private investigator or the ghost of a mob accountant trying to right the misdeeds of his life. Either way I'm sure hijinks ensued.

Also, I might be waaaaaaaay out of touch here, but I don't think there's an innocuous way to use the word 'hot' when describing a woman you don't know to their face. Esp one who makes a living basically navigating from unsolicited hit-on to unsolicited hit-on. (Whether they're actually hot or not, b...

Have you ever had vinho verde before? It's lightly carbonated. It's a slightly lower ABV than other wines and its green-ness made for a decent replacement for botanical spirits, so I thought it was actually a great ingredient for shim cocktails. Our whole European vacation last year was initially pr...

Imo the food and wine culture of Spain is unmatched for the symbiotic diversity of flavors and styles. So if you have access to a store that has a Spain section, shop there. That's probably the easiest suggestion.

A dry bubbly is a fantastically diverse pairing option. The closest to real O-negative wines (universal pairing) I could suggest would be a Riesling in an Old World style (e.g. not sugary sweet) or a Pinot Noir. It's hard to make suggestions at the level of a grape variety, but that's a usually soli...

Unless you’re a Stern fan, I don’t know why anybody would pay for radio instead of one of the many streaming services where you can actually listen to whatever you want to on demand. It's a function of data rates. How do you pull the streaming content out of the sky? If you have an unlimited plan*,...
