A Quick Way to Close Your Browser
Use the following key combo: CTRL Shift Q
This worked in Chrome, Avast Secure Browser and Firefox
It didn't work in Opera, Vivaldi or Edge

ALT+F4 closes the active window - since this is a windows convention I guess that should work for all browsers.

There's a difference between closing the active window and totally closing the browser. :)

David's suggestion works fine for Edge and other browsers, gives the popup "do you wish to close all tabs"

Personally I fine the quickest way to close your browser is to click the X at top of page ;D

A strange light phenomenon last night.

Since the mountains are to my east, that kind of color is usually
seen at sunrise.

Considering this was in Albuquerque, that hot air balloon looks awfully lonely.  Isn't it Albuquerque that has the massive balloon festival ?

The Balloon Fiesta was during the beginning of October. This was a local operator.
@Asyn, we don't hunt balloons or baboons here. :)
