Leaving aside my misspent youth, when I hiked the Inca Trail last year we drank coca tea every morning and I chewed coca leaf anytime we went over 10K ft elevation (so basically all the time), and honestly the stuff is great and extremely effective.

Trump’s Gaza plan hinges on security force yet to take shape Thornier second stage of US president’s proposal includes Hamas’s disarmament and Israel’s withdrawal

They say to me, Bacharach, what's your passion? And I say, without hesitation: coffering. Coffers are my passion.
