I have found, several years after deleting my Google accounts, that any accounts I missed, can be fixed with an email to support explaining I no longer have access to that gmail account. Sometimes I have to provide some understandable proof like an old purchase detail. The one or two accounts that didn't have good support to help, were no real loss to create a new account for.

The weight, and Alton Brown, are why I started getting carbon steel pans. All the benefits, still the seasoning, a fraction the weight.

As I recall, I enjoyed the series as a whole. Takes a couple interesting turns in the world building that I really wasn't expecting.

I hadn't either, then I saw an obituary for Tim Dorsey, the author, mentioning he was a contemporary of Dave Barry. Did a little goodreads lookup, hit up the library and been enjoying ever since. I need to get better about using BookWyrm to look up and track stuff.

Also working on a Brandon Sanderson series, finishing The Way of Kings. First book in the Stormlight Archive series. Loving the way he turns a lot of normal things on it's head, grass and trees that react and retract, gender role and food norms. Very interesting.

Listening my way through Serge Storms series by Tim Dorsey. Cause who doesn't identify a little bit with a serial killer who is basically just acts like your obtrusive inner voice wish you could when confronted with the worst dregs of society. The style of writing is glib and humorous, with attention paid to funny observations.
