Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to Saudi Arabia.

I don’t recall King Faisal as so frail looking when he came to Boston in the ‘60s.

Happened to be going into the Copley Square Hotel when he pulled up in a gold Rolls; followed by a 2-tier car carrier with a fleet of Rolls Royce limos.

As he made his way into the building, he handed out gold Rolex watches to the doormen and baggage handlers as tips. I gotta tell you, impressed this country bumpkin. :)

Cool story. Subsequently Faisal gave away hundreds of gold canes.

Yep. Back in those days, you could go into the hotel like the Copley, Ritz or Kenmore coffee shop, and order a cup of hot tea water [no tea bag], and get it for free. We would put ketchup in it, make a poor-man tomato soup ... and add a few saltines, that were always in a basket on the counter.

We were dirt poor college kids .... barely a step above a street urchin. Survivors of the urban jungle. Good times. :)

Yum and hail the inventors of survival eating.

Percy Spencer is generally credited with inventing the modern microwave oven after World War II from radar technology developed during the war. Named the "Radarange", it was first sold in 1946.

Momofuku Ando Instant noodles were invented by Taiwanese-Japanese inventor Momofuku Ando in Japan. It was first marketed on 25 August 1958 by Ando's company, Nissin, under the brand name Chikin Ramen.

My mom had none of these so we survived on
