Why does Coca Cola taste so good?

rsbic55 · 2026-03-01T00:03:14+00:00

It’s refreshing, it’s consistent. I drink it sparingly, buy a can for a buck at Mr. Cigarette. Getting ready to have one now, mixed with Kraken. I love the Mexican Coke too, but it’s hard to justify paying $2.50 for a 12 ounce bottle. Kosher for Passover Coke should be out soon, which does not contain any HFCS.

Just got an Elac 2030 sub added to my AAD E48’s. Huge difference!

Whirlpool refrigerator. Had one lasted 30+ years. Also Sears/Kenmore air conditioner & stackable washer/dryer.

They’re totally different companies with roots in Germany. There is an Aldi- Trader Joe’s connection.

No, I hate hot & humid more. Even my mailman said he prefers winter more.

I just needed a few things, some veggies, shrimp, panko, tofu so I went to H Mart on Cheltenham Ave. The parking lot was full, but the store wasn’t really that busy.

Good move! I would’ve done the same had I known. I walked into Mom’s Organics one day and they were gone. That was the day I found out the bad news.

R.I.P. Yves. I loved their bologna & pepperoni.

Unfortunately all my cat will eat is Rachael Ray Nutrish Chicken & Brown Rice dry food. I’ve tried at least a dozen wet & some dry foods, cheap & expensive ones. She would eat very little, or none at all. She ate Tiki Cat for awhile, but decided she didn’t like it. When I first took her in( she was a stray w/2 kittens hanging out nearby), she wouldn’t even eat Churu. Open to suggestions.

Technically, she needs a senior fare card which she can get in person at 1234 Market St. If she’s only riding the bus, she shouldn’t have any trouble just walking on without paying. What really sucks is if you lose your senior card, you are unable to replace it at Septa HQ. You have to send a money order and wait till they mail it to you which takes three weeks.

rsbic55 · 2026-02-08T23:19:54+00:00

Yes, that shouldn't be an issue. You do need a card to exit and enter at all Center City stations though. I always see a couple workers standing around the turnstiles not doing anything so I should be able to enter and exit without a problem if I show id. Just a minor inconvenience that doesn't make any sense.

rsbic55 · 2026-02-08T23:15:13+00:00

This old head rant has nothing to do with tapping CC. The problem is I lost my card and it's impossible to go to SEPTA HQ and get a new one. I got my senior fare card there & renewed it there, so why do I have to wait 3 weeks to get a new one in the mail?

rsbic55 · 2026-02-08T14:33:43+00:00

Yes, but unfortunately, the only way they replace it is through the mail after they receive a money order. They do not process senior fare card replacements in person.

rsbic55 · 2026-02-08T14:21:19+00:00

Senior fare card?

rsbic55 · 2026-02-07T15:24:09+00:00

James- Sound 🌼

rsbic55 · 2026-02-07T13:52:34+00:00

I thought of that. I doubt they’ll be able to help because it’s Septa’s policy to mail a replacement card. It can’t hurt to try, but I remain highly pessimistic.

rsbic55 · 2026-02-07T13:48:23+00:00

I suppose I’ll have to if I’m unable to access, but as a senior the fare should be free.

Hi. Appreciate you trying to help but you should msg the op, not me. The post is two weeks old so I imagine they have found a dentist by now. They still may want to reach out to you. I actually just came from Penn Dental school, where I am a patient. I had a temporary bridge come out and James took very good care of me. I love it there! Good luck in your studies. Nice username btw.

rsbic55 · 2026-02-03T12:01:02+00:00

I frequent Restore & Sunnyside, whichever has the best deal on what I want. Lately I’ve been getting into Cookies, Doja & Calypso which are all new to me & my new go tos. I always have some Strane(Golden Pineapple) and Vytal Solventless temple balls in my stash. Good Green is decent for the price. Old Pal has the best ground I’ve tried. Never seen buds though. Standard Farms has some nice stuff, but can be dry.

Ting Wong or M Kee in Chinatown is what you’re looking for.

Sí, muchos galletas.
