Sue Johanson passed away this week. I remember hearing her radio show as a late teen, and no question raised during her show seemed taboo. Definitely a pioneer in the open discussion on the topic for youth at the time.

Sue Johanson was ahead (no pun intended) of her time. She helped a lot of confused people and dispelled so many myths. I used to watch her and thought she was so cool.
May she RIP.
Happy First of July

Thanks for the heads up. I always like trying local brew. Sadly cousin Phil has given up drinking so I'll be drinking alone. NTTAWWTQuote:

"we" used to listen to her show while tuning skis and schlepping rentals up and down stairs, one of the guys who i worked with is still a buddy and i sent him the link to her death and he said he was taking the day off to mournQuote:

Because Timmy's sucks a big fat donut hole?Quote:

A&W has better coffee and can usually be found in the same locations.Quote:

Peruvian and I had lunch at an A&W on our way back from the Chic-Chocs last January. Can't understand why they went out of business in the US (except for the one in Middlebury, VT). So much better than McD's
If you go back to the 70's a lot of Canada liked that coffee especialy back east, i remember being in Toro on course trying to find decent coffee on a weekend and there just wasn't any
When I was last a road warrior I would go thru the Timmy Ho's drive thru for the lunch skip the coffee and hit Starbucks drive thru for the coffe
We still have a few in Washington, but IMO they're a pale shadow of what they used to be (for instance, our local one is also a KFC). Though it could just be sentimentality. My grandfather owned an A&W in California when I was a kid, and I worked at a different one as a teenager.Quote:

I've been to an A&W in Canada a few times. I prefer over a bunch of other drive thru. Mary Brown's though if I'm in the mood for fast-food chicken sandwich and don't mind going inside.
I've been in the back of some of them which is why I can't eat the food
but Timmy Ho's wasnt bad
It definitely was the same menu up and down the west coast when I was a kid in the 80s, but WA and BC are completely different now. BC is much closer to the original.
