Generally for a black and tan style drink, you pour the bottom first and then pour the top layer off the back of a spoon or something similar to keep it from mixing.

I'm not vegetarian either, but bean quesadillas are always a good, cheap, and easy meal when I'm lazy. It can be as easy as open a can of black beans, drain and rinse, put on a big tortilla with cheese and some jarred salsa, cook both sides in a frying pan. If I'm feeling like doing a little more, I'll add some diced tomato and jalapenos. You can be eating in as little as 10 minutes.

According to govfacts.org one tomahawk missile costs between $1.75 and $4 million.

Estimates for universal free school lunch are harder to find, but these two sources say $30 billion and $27 billion.

That means roughly 7000 to 17000 missiles to one year of universal free school lunch. Of course, this does not take into effect the other benefits of universal free lunch. Right off the bat, there would be a reduced administrative cost in tracking and verifying free lunch eligibility. Then there are things like increased attendance and focus in class which lead to long term benefits of a better educated person and more.

It is widely reported that the US has used more than 850 tomahawk missiles in the first four weeks of this war. That means the cost of the war in missiles alone is somewhere between $1.5 and $3.4 billion.

Yeah, I got a call when I was sixteen or so several years ago. They strung me along for quite a while just acting like they knew me. I was trying to figure out how I knew them and finally they said they were a recruiter and I told them I wasn't interested. I wish I told him to fuck off, but that's not the kind of kind I was.
