Cheap eats at The Patty Shop

The Patty Shop on Urbanspoon
The Patty Shop has a storefront, but there are no seats inside. It's really just a take-out counter. No coffee either. Just milk, apparently.
Fortunately, there's decent coffee next door at the BakeShop, which has counter seating and apparently they don't mind if you bring patties in from next door (maybe so long as you get coffee or tea).

For $2 you can get a Jamaican Patty, which is sort of like a Pizza Pop, but with fillings that are a lot less messy, and a crust that is thinner and flaky.

I ordered the three most expensive ones: Vegetable, Spinach, and Chicken. Completely unimpressed. Taste was mediocre and nothing to write home about. Don't order those three (well, maybe the veggie or spinach one if you are vegetarian and dragged in there by you friends). Maybe something from their $2 line-up will be better. No bulk discount either, sadly.

What the Patty Shop is good for is quick, cheap, eats. Three patties stack up to a burger in volume at about half the price.

But don't drive all the way there just to get it. If you want to drive anyway, go to La Tacqueria instead: Less wrapping, more filling, and bulk discount if you get 4 tacos.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en...

ChatGPT Can Deliberately Lie to You. Yes, I have screenshots.

I was really shocked to discover that ChatGPT-4o "Plus" Plan can deliberately lie to you. Not just accidentally process data badly and come up with a bad conclusion. But lie to you because of: "Conversational Coherence" "Politeness Bias" "byproduct of how I'm designed to maintain conversation continuity, coherence, and repair" "create a false narrative to cover a logic failure" I've got screenshots but will provide the full transcript/context of the incident below. You can draw your own conclusions. The quoted items above are verbatim from ChatGPT's responses, so you can search to quickly go to the relevant sections if you prefer. NOTE: In the transcript below, I have put in RED selected text which I highlighted for ChatGPT to specifically address.
