I think I managed to learn a protection spell. But I didn't know that my patron would be a dragon.
And I think I prefer a motorcycle over a broom.

Agra (Inde) - Nous sommes dans le secteur des ferrailleurs non loin du grand marché du Fort Rouge. L’homme est le propriétaire d’un tour et d’une fraiseuse. Ce n’est pas lui qui pilote les machines-outils, il a un ouvrier qui s’en charge. Lui, le patron de l'atelier, sympathique au demeurant, se charge d’encaisser les factures.
The boss
Agra (India) - We are in the scrap dealers sector not far from the large Red Fort market. The man owns a lathe and milling machine. He is not the one who controls the machine tools, he has a worker who takes care of it. The boss is in charge of collecting the bills.
While the basic concept of a buffet dates to the 17th century, the All-American, all-you-can-eat buffet can be traced to Las Vegas - a fact that surprises literally nobody.
Herb Cobb Mcdonald (sigh) introduced the concept in 1946 at the El Rancho. Frank Sinatra didn't play Vegas until 1951. That's how early the whole buffet thing was.
Herb pitched the idea as a place where you could eat "every possible variety of hot and cold entrees to appease the howling coyote in your innards." Gross, Herb.
This photo is of a Chinese restaurant advertising a buffet. The first Chinese buffet was probably in 1949 in California. It was Chang's Restaurant run by Mrs. Jean Chang.
During the spread of buffets at restaurants, normal folks would hold "buffet style dinners" at their houses or at weddings and events. It's easy to assume that Herb (and likely many other folks) took that idea and decided to turn it into a restaurant.
In Independence, Kansas the China Buffet closed down awhile back. Maybe a decade ago. The New China Buffet, opened in the same location, closed within the last couple of years or so.

A mural on High Street in Glasgow, Scotland, depicts a modern day St. Mungo, founder and patron saint of the city. Each year thousands of people gather in town to celebrate his legacy during the St. Mungo Festival.
As tourists wander Glasgow, they frequently pass an image of a gray-haired monk who, despite founding this Scottish city, remains shrouded in mystery. The most influential person in Glasgow history, he adorns its city crest, looms in its cathedral, graces street murals, and has his name on museums, schools, charities, and sports clubs.
He is St. Mungo, the illegitimate son of an alleged witch thrown from a cliff while he was in her womb. Baby Mungo somehow survived, the first of many miracles linked to Glasgow’s patron saint. Or put another way, according to the Life of Saint Mungo written by the monk, Jocelin of Furness, in about 1185, Mungo's mother was Princess Theneva (or Denw) daughter of Loth, the King of the Gododdin, who ruled an area centred on today's East Lothian. After an illicit encounter with her cousin, the young King Owain of North Rheged, now part of Galloway, Princess Theneva fell pregnant. Her unamused father had her tied to a chariot and launched off Traprain Law. It miraculously landed softly, hurting neither Theneva or her unborn child. The Gododdin, now believing Theneva also to be a witch, then cast her adrift in a coracle without oars on the River Forth. She drifted up-river and came ashore at Culross in Fife, where Kentigern was born.

A medium sizedl aircraft which is produced by Patron industries. The craft designed for low altitude flying and fight against guerilla forces. That's why it has a heavy armor and high maneuverability but it is not so fast. Deployed with one anti tank/aircraft gun, one anti infantry gun and also can drop some bombs from the section under cockpit.
A patron heads for the exit at the Salt Lake City Library. Before opening one of the doors ahead, he'll first pass over their shadows on the floor of the foyer. I was able to take this photo from high above the foyer because, of course, the library has many stories :)
