"When it rains, it pours!" ...Morton Salt, a good Chicago "monopoly." 😉 Special shout-out to @SDS... Really extends the life of the hot water tank! 😆 🤣

Because "ketchup" was traditionally made with tomatoes 🍅. When "tomato ketchup" was invented, it was like snake oil. Marketed as a medicine. Tomato ketchup just became synonymous with the word ketchup... Now... Is it: "Ketchup" or "Catsup?" I guess there is a difference! https://www.diffen.com/difference/Catsup_vs_Ketchup#:~:text=Catsup may be made of,be more spicy than Ketchup. "The basic ingredients in modern ketchup are tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt, allspice, cloves, and cinnamon. Onions, celery, and other vegetables are frequent additions. Catsup may be made of tomatoes, onions, cayenne, sugar, white vinegar, cloves, cinnamon, celery seed and salt. So the two do not differ much in their ingredients. But different manufacturers may use different ingredients for the two. Sometimes Catsup may be more spicy than Ketchup."

Ketchup was considered "medicine" & prescribed... "Yes, that's right, tomato ketchup was once believed to have medicinal properties and was used as a form of medication to cure diarrhoea, indigestion, rheumatism and jaundice. In 1834, Dr John Cooke Bennett added tomatoes to ketchup and claimed that it could cure the above-mentioned diseases." https://telanganatoday.com/did-you-know-tomato-ketchup-was-once-used-as-medicine

On a hotdog. Sacrilege!

One of the guys I work with is a cousin of Bob McAdoo! Or so he claims. We got to talking about the Braves one day and his name came up of course...

What's the rules? Do I get two more or just one more and out for this round? What decade did screw job happen?

Shucks, thought I stuck it! Wade was born during Truman as POTUS! LoL...

Wade Phillips.

School? I got a brother 4 years my senior. Whatya think? Yeah. Look at me I am fine! It's like the Army. Tear you down to build you up! 😉 😜 😘

Is he from New Jersey? (Bare with me... LoL)

Is he a Democrat?

Hey! How do I know you didn't change your choice. Betcha you cheat at Battleship too! Sorry, sore loser, accusatory moods have what we've all become. Is this person dead or alive?

I can name that tune in one note! Sigmund Freud

@Johnny Hammersticks is up. He answered it correctly. Tagged it for him so he sees it. Sorry for all the extra noise.

She died at home: Gotta be her! "Teressa Bellissimo, who invented the Buffalo-style chicken wings that won international culinary respect and fame for her hometown, died Monday. She was 84 years old. Mrs. Bellissimo died in her apartment above Frank and Teressa's Anchor Bar and Restaurant on Main Street, which she and her late husband, Frank, opened in 1940."

I asked what city. Didn't answer yet. She died at 84 in 1985: https://www.nytimes.com/1985/11/06/nyregion/teressa-bellissimo-inventor-of-spicy-buffalo-wings-dies.html#:~:text=Teressa Bellissimo%2C who invented the,She was 84 years old.&text=Bellissimo's son%2C Dominic%2C that the,midnight one Friday in 1964.

Yeah. Some people thought they were dying. Also... no grilling

That's gotta be her. "No grillin' " but deep frying!

What city is she from?

Guess in my head. Never formalized. LoL... Not trying to commit "Game Fraud" here! How did she die? Was she old or young at death...??

My first guess when You said "Hospitality" was Al Capone. But it's a woman. "When I sell liquor, they call it bootlegging. When my patrons serve it on silver trays on Lake Shore Drive, they call it hospitality." ~Al Capone How did she die?

Was she American? What nationality?
