Lemme Try!

I may be a little rusty...

So Vasteras is Carlsson's city...I think a Krog is a half crocodile, half dog;  And a Snart is when you've got a snot that smells like a fart...

OK, Maybe you better get Carlsson.

Cool. That must be a rather old newspaper, about February 2020. The upper article mentions a music festival intended to be held on June 25-27, but due to Covid-19 it was cancelled altogether on May 15. The big news was about a female artist, Veronica Maggio making her only planned concert in this area at the festival. Alas that never happened.

The bottom article is about yet another of those trendy restaurants opening and closing all the time. For a short while there was a low-end fastfood burger joint at the address at Sturegatan, but slow serving plus even more boring burgers than McDonald's meant it didn't last long. Now this Blackstone Steakhouse was about to open, with game, beef, pizza, swordfish, vegetarian and vegan choices on the menu. The guest gets a raw piece of meat to the table and decides for how long to cook it.

Apparently this restaurant at least still is open, seven months later in a period of many places closing down (even here where we never had a full lockdown). However, I've never been there. For a price point, the pizzas and vegan dishes are ~$17-$21 each and meat dishes $28-$41. That might be typical for that kind of restaurant, but then again at that price point the city is crowded by existing and new restaurants, so they got a lot of competition.

Maybe a phoneman traded in his iPhone9 (is that a thing) for an iPhone10, and ...I dunno...

Hey it's back!    And Buck Rogers is on!! SCORE!

Son of Dracula next week!

If you're into that Twitter thing, then you can live tweet during Sven.  Just use the #Svengoolie hashtag.

I had so many fart jokes running thru my brain that they all just ran together, so I'll let it go, insert your own.
