it's me Grady D here with you for another broadcast today is Thursday July
16th 2026 I hope you're all doing well phone lines are open call in

or you can email the email address the morning drip on the morning drip on the morning
so on Thursdays I try to I try to veer away from so much politics because it's invasive it's insidious
it's every time you turn around whether it's on the television whether it's on the radio whether it's
in the the podcast fear the online streaming fear the radio streaming fear like it's fear like here
maybe it is fear I don't know so on Thursdays I try to I want to take a little lighter approach
now I don't mean lighter as in every story I'm going to talk about is just kind of light and fluffy and airy
but I'm going to try to steer my way around all the bullshit that's happened this week going to happen this week
because side note I'm just going to touch on this dear leader is supposed to do a broadcast tonight
around 9 p.m. he's going to address the nation and the funny thing haha funny to me
and he's not the only president that has had this happen to him
but so far none of the major networks have actually cleared their schedule for him to
to air his grievances if you will because that's exactly what this is going to be
this is going to be it's going to be the old tired trope
he's going to talk about two things this is my opinion but based on everything and then we'll get off this subject
he's going to talk about two things
he's going to go hard again on how the 2020 election was rigged which is false
he lost Joe Biden won there's absolutely no doubt about that that has been litigated to hell and back
so there's no doubt he's going to bring out all kinds of probably new evidence of foreign interference
and all this other bullshit because as I've said before he's going to try his damnedest to weaken to muddy
to make everybody second guess what is the freest and fairest elections in the country in the world
the other thing is he may take you know touch on Iran but I think he's really going to go hard on the whole election thing
because he knows he's going to turn upside down
he's going to lose his ass come November unless he cheats
and that's the thing
predominantly anytime there's any kind of slight evidence that comes up that something was not quite right
and far as far as voting
nine times out of ten it's a Republican that did it
not a Democrat
not saying that Democrats are squeaky clean by any stretch of the imagination
they're not
but we handle our own if you know what I mean
anyway off of that topic
we're going to try to keep it non-political as much as we can
first up today's segment
a new study from researchers at Washington University School of Medicine
suggests that younger generations
may be aging biologically faster
than previous generations
and that accelerated aging could help explain the troubling rise in early onset cancers
analyzing health data from more than 154,000 people in the UK
in over 10,000 Americans
researchers found that people born in more recent decades showed signs of older biological age
relative to their actual age
even when comparing individuals at the same chronological age
the study found that this accelerated aging was associated with an increased risk of cancers diagnosed
they also identified specific links between aging organ systems and cancer risk for example
an immune system that appeared biologically older than expected was associated with a higher risk of early onset lung cancer while older appearing fat tissue was linked to a greater risk of colorectal cancer
and individuals with the most advanced biological aging had about a 15% higher risk of developing early onset solid tumors compared with those aging more slowly
scientists stressed that the study does not identify a single cause for faster aging instead they suspect a combination of modern environmental and lifestyle metabolic factors may be leaving biological quote fingerprints that accelerate aging and increase cancer risk and the researchers hope that measuring biological age could eventually help identify younger adults at elevated cancer risk which would then allow doctors to target
to target prevention and screening and early detection efforts before these diseases develop
I don't know how I feel about this as far as
I mean I don't I don't necessarily question the research
I don't question the study
I um
I have to think
okay I'm not a doctor of course
I don't even play one on the internet
I'm not Dr. Oz
but um
yeah that's a that's a jab at that dumbass
um
but look at look at the stress
you know stress can cause a lot of ailments
now I'm not going to sit here and tell you that stress causes cancer
because
A. I don't know that
B. I've already said I'm on I'm not a doctor
C. I've never heard any kind of research actually point to that
but we do know that stress can
weaken your immune system
and so look
look at the times we live in
now I know
there's going to be some of the older folks out there
that's like
you know
you want
rough times
look back at this decade
or that decade
and
no look
I get it
but
what I'd like to say
is that
never in
human history
have we
had the type of access
that we have
to basically everything
and what started out
as a noble
and good idea
as far as
shrinking the world
and connecting us all together
in fellowship
if you will
aka the internet
I think we can all agree
that it's
the internet itself
the fundamental foundation of the internet
is not the issue
but what
is riding over it
what we use it for today
has basically
gone off the rails
and I always
I always fight
with these
these two sides
of this equation
I try to reconcile them
on the one hand
I love
the internet itself
I love the promise
of the early days
of the internet
it was
it was like the wild wild west
it was like
every time you got online
you were discovering something new
right
and we came up with
all kinds of
innovative ideas
of what we could do
with the internet
audio streaming
that was one of them
YouTube
was another one
then we had
basically
we
we replaced
in large portions
watching cable television
or over the air television
with streaming services
whether that was
you know
Netflix
really started it
they came from
some of the younger folks
probably don't remember
Netflix
was not
they didn't start out
as a streaming service
they started out as a
as a
mail to the individual
DVD rental business
which
in itself
was freaking awesome
and scared the bejesus
out of
most
video store rental places
you know
because you could
you could sign up
I forget
it was
they had different tiers
but I think it was around
like nine or ten dollars
and you could queue up
you could go in
and say
I want this
this DVD
this
and it could be movies
it could be
television series
whatever they had available
and you could keep things
in your queue
and I know the
I know the one I was on
I would
my maximum
was three
I could only have three
whether that's
I physically have
the three of them
or maybe
I had two
and I've already sent one back
and another one's coming
that kind of thing
and so
you didn't have to worry about
you know
rushing to the video rental store
on a Friday or Saturday night
only to discover
that
all the good titles
were gone
you know
that happened way back
even in the VHS days
and some of you are probably going
what's a VHS
go ask your grandparents
but
but yeah
Netflix started out that way
and it was tremendous
because like I said
you could go in
and you could just queue up
and say okay
I want this
and as soon as you finished
watching
the DVD
you put it back
in the envelope
you tossed it in the mailbox
and it got
it made its way back
to Netflix
they checked it in
it got removed
off your list
and then the next one
in your queue
could get sent
that was Netflix
they eventually
transitioned in
they started adding
the streaming side of it
and it became so popular
and so lucrative for them
that they eventually
and I think it's only just been
in the last few years
that they
completely killed off
the DVD rental business
those types
of innovative
ideas
and technologies
and the fact
that I can sit here
and talk to you
over the internet
whether you're listening
to me on a smartphone
whether you're listening
to me on your computer
whether you're listening
to me in podcast form
after the fact
all of this
was a way
for us to connect
unfortunately
that also means
the other side
of this equation
that it's a free
it's a free sphere
so even the lunatics
have a voice
the crazy ones
the tin hatters
the conspiracy theory
nuts
and look
I love a good
conspiracy theory
I think they're fun
the entertaining
of the what if
sometimes it's like
what if aliens
really did land
in Roswell
crash in Roswell
in the 40s
you know that kind of thing
that's the reason
why I love
I'm so ticked off
that YouTube
will never make an agreement
with A&E Network
I think it's A&E Networks
because I don't have
history channel
I loved watching
ancient aliens
Giorgio Tsoukalos
I think I said his last name right
it's been a while
The Unexplained
with William Shatner
I know none of that shit's real
but it's fun to entertain
right
but there are
there are people out there
that
that use
the ability
to connect
to practically
anyone
for
more
darker
nefarious
reasons
so I say all of that
to say this
we are
constantly
inundated
with information
24-7
and quite honestly
it started even before
the internet
was a thing
I mean the internet's
been around
for a long long time
but the public internet
has only been around
since
what
92
93
94
somewhere in there
I don't know the exact date
it's been a while
but the 24-7 news cycle
that was started by CNN
did we really need
a channel
that gave us
news
24-7
do I need to
wake up at 3 in the morning
and go take a piss
and then walk by the TV
to see what's going on
in the world
no I do not
you know I grew up
in a time
where
news came on
at
local news came on
at 6 o'clock
I think it ran for an hour
and then
we had national news
at 7
whether it was NBC
ABC
CBS
or whatever
normally
we were a Tom Brokaw
NBC
from 7 to 730
then usually at 730
there'd probably be
like Wheel of Fortune
or something
that was
broadcast
by the local station
and then at 8 o'clock
they started the prime time lineup
whether it was
again
NBC
CBS
or ABC
you just got your news
whenever you
you know
you had to make
you had to make a point
to actually
go
seek out the news
now the news
seeks you out
and it will beat you
over the damn head
if you're not careful
because social media
social media
is another idea
that I think
was fantastic
to start with
but we misunderstood
or just missed
the darker
underbelly
of what
this was going
to morph into
Facebook
in my opinion
is 90% crap
the number of people
the number of groups
on there
that are either
you know
anti-vaxxers
or anti-this
or
they think
Antifa is real
and
you know
Obama is actually
on Mars
you know
that kind of nonsense
Twitter started out
as a great idea
used to be
that if you wanted
to know something
immediately
about what was
going on in the world
Twitter was the first
place to go
it has now turned
into a cesspool
Blue Sky
it's an echo chamber
I get it
it's mostly
left-leaning
commentators
and people that
fall into that
category
there are some
right-wingers
on there
but it's
predominantly
a left
progressive
a progressive
left-leaning
platform
then you got
Instagram
you got threads
that's the thing
it makes
me wonder
because I can't
prove this
but it makes
me wonder
that if this
biologically
aging faster
than previous
generations
correlation
or causation
I can't say
but is it
the stress
even partially
of the day-to-day
life that we
lead
and all of the
information that
we are constantly
being bombarded
with
that's increasing
our stress levels
and weakening
our immune
systems
which gives
foreign bodies
the opportunity
to invade
ours
and
essentially
make us
sick
and kill us
I don't know
growing up
I was not
a very
I wasn't an
outdoor kind
of person
I was always
a nerd
electronics
computers
now don't get
me wrong
I love riding
a motorcycle
I had one
I had a go-kart
bicycle
all of that
but if I had
a choice
of sitting
in front
of a computer
and doing
something fun
versus being
outside
getting hot
and sweaty
I was going
to be sitting
inside
at that computer
as I've
gotten older
and I mean
heaven forbid
you send me
out into the woods
it was just like
no
as I've gotten
older
I've come
to appreciate
almost that
hippie-dippie
connection
if you will
and I don't mean
that disparaging
to anybody
that identifies
as a hippie
but of connecting
to nature
it literally
calms me
I love sitting
and watching
birds and squirrels
and things like that
something that
20 year old me
would have looked
at me and go
what the hell
is wrong with you dude
and that's the way
I try to keep my calm
but I don't know
what do you think
about this study
I'd love to hear from you
do you
number one
do you agree
with the study
and number two
what do you think
about my theory
that part of the reason
why the younger
generations
are aging
biologically
faster than
previous generations
has to do
with the fact
of the time
that we're living
in and that
we're essentially
suffering from
information overload

all right
have you ever heard
the term
gray divorce
I gotta be honest
with you
I had not heard
of it until
earlier this year
but gray divorce
is divorce
among adults
aged
50
and older
which I fit
right in there
because I'm 56
my wife is 55
she'll be 56
in a couple of months
but this has become
a much more
common trend
in the United States
nearly 40%
of all divorces
now involving
couples
over 50
let that sink in
nearly 40%
of all divorces
now involve
couples
that are over
50 years of age
sociologists
say that many
older couples
are just
they're just
no longer
willing to
remain
in what
they call
quote
empty shell
marriages
where the
relationship
has become
more like a
partnership
or a
roommate
arrangement
than a
fulfilling
romantic
connection
now I've
debated on whether
I should say
this or not
I love my
wife
I think
she's
you know
I married
up
but we've
been married
for 36
years
we're both
over 50
and that's
I'll just
stop right
there
I mean
as I've
said before
our youngest
kid's 29
two of the
three of them
are already
out of the
house
and have
been out
of the
house
for
a decade
or more
but that
roommate
arrangement
thing I do
kind of
connect with
and I'll
just leave
it at that
longer life
expectancy
changing
expectations
about marriage
greater
financial
independence
have led
many people
to question
whether they
want to spend
another 20
to 40
years
in what
they see
as an
unfulfilling
relationship
once the
children
have grown
up
and it
is
interesting
because
my wife
and I
we fall
into a
very
small
category
of people
who got
married
early
we got
married
when we
were
well we got
married
in 1990
I was
20
she was
19
and we're
still
together
we look
around
at all
of the
people
large
majority
of the
people
that we
graduated
with
and they're
either on
their third
or fourth
marriage
have kids
strung
between those
multiple
marriages
and I'm
not judging
don't get me
wrong
I'm not
sitting up
here on
my high
horse
going
no
it's
tough
I think
the
I think
one of the
reasons why
my wife
and I
have
lasted
as long
as we
have
is because
we're
just
both so
damn
stubborn
and
bullheaded
and hard
headed
that we're
we're like
we're
we're just
not gonna
let this
thing fall
apart
I don't
know if
that's a
good thing
or a
bad thing
but you
know I've
seen a lot
of a lot
of Gen
Xers
that waited
to get
married
maybe
as they
were
closer
to
30
of course
the younger
generations
your Zoomers
and Millennials
a lot
of them
just said
the hell
with marriage
and look
I get it
marriage
to me
is
an artificial
construct
I think
that monogamy
and I'm not
suggesting
that everybody
should
have open
relationships
or stuff
like that
but if you
if you
look at
us
as
animals
because that's
what we
are
at our
core
we
are
animals
we are
part of
the animal
kingdom
and there
are very
few
animals
in the
animal
kingdom
that actually
mate
for life
the majority
of animals
hell the majority
of insects
have multiple
partners
throughout their
lives
so monogamy
in my
opinion
is a
societal
construct
that is
somewhat
rooted
in religion
so
trying to
force
these
singular
romantic
relationships
that eventually
are no longer
romantic
but feel
more like
a responsibility
I can
understand
why
gray
divorce
has become
a thing
I'm not
advocating
for it
I'm just
saying I
understand
it
and we're
living
longer
you know
every 20
years
is basically
a generation
and so
every 20
years
you can
somewhat
reinvent
yourself
so you've
got couples
that have
been married
30 and
40 years
they're
well over
50
but they
expect to
probably live
into their
80s
and so
they're
thinking
do I
really
do I
want to
spend
another
20 to
40 years
in this
relationship
I want
to go
out
and do
X
or Y
and my
partner
doesn't
want to
and some
of these
you know
some of
these
divorces
are amicable
a researchers
say today's
older adults
often expect
marriage to
provide emotional
fulfillment
and personal
growth
rather than
simply economic
stability
or family
structure
experts
also know
that major
life transitions
okay
here we go
including
retirement
children
leaving the
home
menopause
Jesus
fucking
Christ
menopause
that's all
I'll say
can prompt
people
to re-evaluate
their relationships
many women
in particular
report reaching
a point
where they
no longer
want to
carry
unequal
emotional
or caregiving
responsibilities
while men
and women
alike
increasingly
feel they
have the
opportunity
to pursue
a more
satisfying
and here's
what I was
talking about
third act
later in
life
because in
a traditional
marriage
it's usually
if you
can afford
it
something
that
is hard
to do
today
because it
takes
dual
incomes
nay
it almost
takes
three incomes
to be able
to enjoy
a comfortable
life
let's put it
that way
in the
United
States
but in
a traditional
marriage
usually
the man
works
and the
wife
slash
mother
stays
home
takes care
of the
kids
takes care
of the
house
cooks
breakfast
lunch
and dinner
and that
kind
of stuff
and I'm
not being
misogynistic
I'm saying
that is
what is
classified
as the
nuclear
family
that is
what a
lot of
people
on the
right
feel
is the
way
families
should be
constructed
I mean
you even
have
you even
have
this
online
category
of
trad
wives
where
it's
actually
younger
women
who
put
themselves
out
there
on
social
media
streaming
what
have
you
talking
about
their
lives
as a
traditional
wife
trad
wife
how they
do the
cooking
and they
do the
cleaning
where their
man
goes
and
you know
makes
that cheddar
that kind
of thing
but despite
the growing
trend
experts caution
that gray
divorce
carries
significant
financial
and emotional
consequences
I could
see that
older adults
often face
retirement
challenges
reduced
household
wealth
and a
longer
recovery
period
than
younger
divorcees
some
couples
choose
long-term
separation
instead of
legal divorce
to avoid
financial
complications
while others
eventually
find new
relationships
through dating
apps
or social
circles
I actually
saw
in the
reporting
on this
article
where
talking about
this long-term
separation
there was
this married
couple
and they
decided
financially
they couldn't
necessarily
divorce
so they
decided
just to
separate
and the
husband
the wife
stayed in
the home
that they
had been
living in
for
however
long
but
apparently
they also
owned an
apartment
an apartment
that they
actually
started their
marriage out
in
and they
still owned
it
so he
moved back
into the
apartment
so they're
separated
they can go
off and do
their own
individual
things that
they want
to but
legally
and financially
they're still
married
many
find that
the decision
isn't driven
by finding
another partner
but by seeking
greater
independence
or
personal
fulfillment
and a
stronger
sense
of
identity
after
decades
of
putting
family
and
marriage
first
and this
I do
also
understand
there are
a lot
of wives
over
the decades
that one
of their
common
complaints
that I've
seen
is the
fact that
they
don't know
who they
are
once they
get through
they do
the marriage
deal
they have
children
then the
children are
out of the
house
and that
identity
of wife
and mother
is
no longer
there
they're
still
a
wife
but
the
mother
part
has
usually
been
the
predominant
aspect
of
their
lives
they're
no less
a mother
just because
the kids
are out of
the house
but it's
something that
my wife
actually wrestled
with
once your
kids get
to a
certain
age
it's
tough
but they
no longer
need
you
until
they do
but for
the most
part
they no
longer
need
you
and so
then
the mother
has to
wrestle
with
who am
I
because
if I'm
no longer
that
person
that
spends
the majority
of my
time
day in
and day
out
taking
care
of
these
kids
and
answering
their
questions
and
treating
their
boo-boos
and
hugging
them
whenever
they feel
bad
and
they're
crying
etc
who
are
you
and so
they
do
wrestle
with
that
I
think
men
can
wrestle
with
that
to
a
point
but
it's
not
the
same
we
wrestle
with
it
whenever
our
circumstances
change
generally
due
to
work
we've
been
in a
long
time
job
that
we
suddenly
find
that
because
of
downsizing
or
what
have
you
what
we
thought
was
going
to
be
our
deal
until
we
retired
is
no
longer
there
it's
gone
I
personally
ran
into
that
now
I
wasn't
over
50
when
it
happened
I
was
42
you know
the answer
to life
and the
universe
and
everything
only you
nerds are
going to get
that reference
but I
found myself
at 42
years
of age
lost
because I
had lost
a job
that I
had been
in for
13
years
and was
pretty
damn
confident
that I
was going
to be
in until
I
retired
but that
was not
the
case
it
upended
my
life
and I
was
lost
I
couldn't
figure out
who I
was
it took
some
time
and I
still
have my
doubts
to this
day
but I
don't
think
men
suffer
from the
identity
crisis
as much
as women
do
especially
when women
have
devoted
20
20 plus
years
of their
life
to this
marriage
and raising
kids
and maybe
they put
off
what they
wanted
to do
as a
career
so that
they could
have this
marriage
and raise
these kids
personally
now
I recommend
and I'm
just some
schmuck
in South
Central Georgia
talking on a
microphone
so take it
with a grain
of salt
but I
recommend
that
men
and women
pursue
their career
objectives
first
that doesn't
mean you
can't get
married
but pursue
your career
objectives
first
get yourself
to a
comfortable
place in
life
and then
consider
having kids
or don't
again
I'm not
judging
I find
nothing wrong
with women
who have
decided that
they do
not want
to have
children
that's not
an issue
I don't
find anything
wrong
with that
our own
kids
don't want
to have
children
they look
at the
world
around
them
and
their
honest
answer
is
why
the
hell
would
I
bring
a
breathing
living
person
into
this
world
with
all
of
the
bullshit
that's
going
on
and
that
added
responsibility
I
understand
it
I
completely
get it
and it
does not
bother
me
that
we
will
not
have
grandkids
it
has
bothered
my
wife
a
little
bit
and
I
understand
that
but
it's
not
bothered
me
if
we
wound
't
having
grandkids
I
would
my
adult
kids
to go
hey
you need
to get
into
long-term
relationships
and get
kids
on the
way
we need
some
babies
no
I
want
them
to
do
what
they
want
to
do
if
they
decide
that
their
career
is
more
important
fine
if
they
decide
that
they
would
rather
just
date
and
not
get
married
fine
I
don't
care
I
just
want
them
to
be
happy
so
yeah
gray
divorce
what do
you
think
about
it
are
you
in
a
relationship
where
if
you
got
divorced
it
would
be
considered
a
gray
divorce
or
have
you
already
gone
through
a
gray
divorce
and
look
I
want
you
to

now
what are we
going to
talk about
what are we
going to
talk about
cottage cheese
you know I
do not like
cottage cheese
I'm not a
big fan of
cottage cheese
when it
comes to
lasagna
when it
comes to
lasagna
I prefer
lasagna
without cottage
cheese
I don't know
I think it's
what it looks
like
I don't know
it's it's
weird
it's a
visual
maybe
mouth
feel
thing
it's just
like I love
the flavor
of coconut
I cannot
stand
the way
coconut
feels in
my mouth
whenever I'm
eating it
you know
so maybe
that's the
thing with
I don't
know
cottage cheese
the reason
why we're
talking about
cottage cheese
this morning
it's become
one of the
hottest foods
in America
creating shortages
that have
left grocery
shelves empty
across the
country
why
once
considered
an old
fashioned
diet
food
it has
surged
in popularity
thanks to
tiktok
recipes
and the
growing
quote
protein
maxing
trend
with
creators
using it
in everything
from ice
cream
pasta
sauces
to smoothies
and flat
breads
industry
sales
have jumped
more than
80%
since
2022
topping
two
billion
dollars
in
2025
that's
what it
be
manufacturers
say production
simply cannot
keep pace
because cottage
cheese takes
many hours
to culture
and existing
processing
facilities
weren't built
for today's
demand
manufacturers
are investing
hundreds of
millions of
dollars to
expand
production
but those
projects will
take years
to fully
come online
sounds like
the problem
we have
with fab
companies
for making
chips and
memory and
what have
you
good culture
one of the
most sought
after
brands
says
it's
currently
meeting
less than
half
less than
half
of consumer
demand
despite
working
with
seven
production
facilities
and building
two more
other dairy
cooperatives
report
they've already
sold out
years of
future
production
capacity
as consumers
continue
embracing
high protein
foods
I guess
that's one
thing I didn't
realize that
cottage cheese
was high
in protein
and I'm
so sick
of this
what they
call here
protein
maxing
I'm so
sick
of this
whole
maxing
bullshit
looks
maxing
power
maxing
griff
maxing
I don't
know
the shortages
have also
fueled
online speculation
after good
culture was
purchased by
private
private equity
firm
L Catterton
earlier this
year
some shoppers
blame the
acquisition
for empty
shelves
or feared
the company
would change
its ingredients
to cut
cost
that's
always a
concern
company
executives
of course
deny
those
claims
insisting
the recipe
remains
unchanged
and saying
the real
problem
is overwhelming
demand
not changes
in ownership
but for now
many shoppers
remain frustrated
by one
simple
problem
finding
cottage cheese
in stock
what do you
think
do you like
cottage cheese
I'm not a big
fan
have you run
into any
issues with
trying to find
cottage cheese
personally
I haven't
but we
we buy it
sparingly
it's
usually
when my
wife
decides
she's
going to
make
some
variation
of
lasagna
we make
what's
called
mock
lasagna
we make
a lot
of mock
meals
stroganoff
when we
first got
married
and she
she was
telling me
about mock
stroganoff
and I saw
what it
looked like
I was
I recoiled
I was
like
until I
tasted it
now
mock
lasagna
not mock
lasagna
mock
stroganoff
the big
difference
there
is
traditional
stroganoff
uses
sour cream
mock
stroganoff
uses
cream
cheese
so it's
very decadent
the mock
lasagna
basically
you make
it in a
pot
so it
can either
be called
mock
lasagna
pot
lasagna
something
like that
it's just
it's real
quick way
of making
it
unlike
the
traditional
where you
layer
everything
in a
casserole
dish
and then
bake the
crap
out of
it
which I
mean
that's
good
too
because
fortunately
for most
lasagna
dishes
I can't
tell the
cottage
cheese is
there
just don't
let me
see it
because
otherwise
then my
brain
starts taking
over my
taste buds
and it's
like dude
this is
this makes
it all
taste bad
I don't
know
that's not
what I
want
that's the
wrong
that's the
wrong button
it's
Thursday
anyway
do you
like
cottage
cheese
you big
fan of
cottage
cheese
have you
found
that
you
can't
find
it
in the
grocery
store
and what
do you
think
about
grade
divorce
as well
as
the study
about
younger
generations
are
biologically
aging
faster
and my
idea
that
that's
probably
due
to the
stresses
of our
always
on
being
inundated
with
information
society
that we
live in
phone lines
