repo rates on vehicles is accelerating so there will be a lot of low cost great deals coming down the pike for cash buyers

how's inflation?

the average price for a gallon of gas in 1960 was .31 cents...1 quarter, 1 nickel and one penny in coin minted in 1960

today it's $3.00.....a quarter minted in 1960 is now worth $10.21 as of this morning

3 gallons of gas and some change back

How much would that $10.21 buy you in 1960 at the grocery store or a restaurant?

1960 McDonald's Menu--Hamburger is .10 cents in 1960 minted coin...this morning that coin is worth $4.08

well you could inflate your basketball 10+ times with a quarter minted in 1964 or before

1/4 times with a 2024 minted quarter

You better check your math again. if a 1960 quarter is worth over $10.00's that would be 20 times.

cost of inflation is coin op...1 dollar = 4 quarters.....1/4 of a dollar each quarter

1 1960 minted quarter is a little over 10 bucks....10 inflates

1/4 inflation of the ball verses 10+ inflations with junk silver quarter

You are arguing percentages of currency when your original post compared the value of each quarter per dollar value regardless 1964 and 2024.

that is deceptive semantics.

However you are anal enough to promote social consensus beyond actual time alive navigating space with your brain adapting forward each heartbeat added since arriving by your chromosomes conceived by your two biological parents, changing form since shaped originally a fertilized cell carrying same chromosomes after birth and every stage evolved from infant to current ancestral position with or without children of your own chromosomes 50% their relative DNA displaced time living one at a time, so far.

Tattoo ink induces inflammation in the draining lymph node and alters the immune response to vaccination

https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2510392122


Significance

In this study, we characterized the immune responses to the tattoo ink accumulating in the lymph nodes (LNs).

This is very relevant as tattoo ink commonly reaches and persists in this organ in most tattooed subjects, often lifelong.

We have observed that ink is retained within phagocytic cells, which undergo cell death and induce a prominent and long-term inflammatory response, with elevated levels of proinflammatory cytokines in LNs up to 2 mo after tattooing.

Furthermore, we observed that tattoo ink at the vaccine injection site modulated immune responses in a vaccine-specific manner, with a reduced response to the COVID-19 vaccine and an enhanced response to the UV-inactivated influenza vaccine, reflecting differences in the mechanisms of action between these vaccine classes.

talk about fries, Val's "regular fries" rival burger chain's large or king size and their large is enough for 3...

I still make it there once a yr, while good, they're not as good as I remember as I think they changed their supplier...

in the little waiting area, a kiosk takes your customer order (used to be an offsite operator) then you wait your 5+ minutes until it's done...no indoor eating as it's either picnic table or car...and they're always busy...

the co-founder just celebrated her 100th birthday last April...

Wendy's used to griddle their burger right in front of you....a real hot and juicy as the slogan said

They had a thing where if you eat two triples loaded up the third one was free....I could do that standing on my head
