I am not keen on ordering groceries and other necessaries online. I think it's important to have brick and mortar stores for daily necessaries. If the brick and mortar grocery stores start disappearing, then it would be like ordering your gasoline for the car delivered online. I want there to be a fillin' station I can go to, not just rely on Amazon to show up with a tank of fuel.
“When I was in college, I took a terrorism class. ... The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up, But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity. You don’t say ‘the army’ with the intensity,” she continued. “... But you say these names [Al Qaeda] because you want that word to carry weight. You want it to be something.” - Ilhan Omar

I looked online, 42, and the drive in is in Ruskin. That's about halfway between us, I believe.

Movies "under the stars" (i.e. outdoors on temporary, and sometimes permanent, screens) are becoming really popular here, particularly up here in the sub-tropics where the nights are generally mild(ish) in winter, and usually a cool relief in summer after a stinking hot day. They generally show kids movies, so they are really popular with families. You just bring a rug or fold out chairs and sit and watch. All free, of course.
