The image features a plate of food with a sandwich and side items. The sandwich is cut into four triangular pieces, revealing layers of ham, melted cheese, and possibly shredded chicken, all encased in a golden-brown, flaky crust. The sandwich is dusted with a light coating of powdered sugar, giving it a slightly sweet appearance. Accompanying the sandwich are a portion of golden French fries and a small white ramekin containing a dark, chunky sauce, likely a barbecue or sweet chili sauce. A pickle spear is also present on the plate, adding a touch of green. In the background, there is a glass of a dark beverage, possibly soda, and a red napkin, suggesting a casual dining setting. The plate is set on a wooden table, enhancing the warm and inviting atmosphere of the meal.

"Things Can Only Get Better" by Howard Jones

Listen on Apple Music (https://music.apple.com/us/album/things-can-only-get-better/1466273974?i=1466273986)

Describe your favorite summer as a kid using a single song.

Today's song takes me back to the summer of 1985 and my subdivision swim team. Howard Jones' song Things Can Only Get Better was hugely popular and something we heard regularly on the radio. It ended up being our subdivision swim team theme song.

This song is just very upbeat, catchy and one that just sticks with you. It's one that we played constantly via cassette if it wasn't already playing on the radio. I have so many summer memories with this song that I wish I could go back and experience again.

[Verse]
We're not scared to lose it all
Security throw through the wall
Future dreams we have to realize
A thousand skeptic hands
Won't keep us from the things we plan
Unless we're clinging to the things we prize

[Verse 2]
And do you feel scared, I do
But I won't stop and falter
And if we threw it all away
Things can only get better

[Chorus]
Whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh whoa-whoa whoa-oh-oh
(Whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh whoa-whoa whoa-oh-oh)
Whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh whoa-whoa whoa-oh-oh
(Whoa whoa whoa-oh-oh whoa-whoa whoa-oh-oh)

@jbjrkng Weird. I've never had that happen to me or have it prompt to do that or anything.

I setup the new phone, click the Signal app, enter my PIN and everything is just there.

@jbjrkng I've had every iPhone since the iPhone 6, and I've had Signal for several years and several of those devices and never had any issues with Signal transferring from the old phone to the new phone. It's just always there on the new phone after setting it up.

@3x10to8mps Thank you.

He was once a stray kitty, and my dad had given him the name. At about 1 years old, we decided to bring him in and give him a forever home. We were going to change his name, but a couple weeks after we brought him inside, my dad passed away.

So we decided it was only fitting to keep the name Kumquat. Now, here we are, five years later.

@Dienstag LOL Hadn't looked at it like that. Glad he knew something needed fixing!

Good morning and happy Saturday!

How are we all doing and feeling today?

I'm not even sure what Kumquat is doing here, but whatever it is, it's quite funny looking.
