    Politics CURRENT EVENTS July 14 - July 31

    @dukeman92 Hey, what is the source of the article you screenshot? I want the original link of Leavitt saying, "Sharing actual footage of events that really happened is something that President Trump would never do." That has to be spread more on the internet. His own press secretary saying...

    True, but is "survival" all we are looking for in a national educational resource? You, and others, like PBS for the quality of programming it provides. Reduced money yields less of a quality product and also less product in general. So PBS becomes more withered and possibly dies eventually...

    Me as well, ESPECIALLY for clothes. I only buy name-brand, lightly used, and professionally cleaned (still have tags on them) shirts. Pay between 3 and 6 for each instead of 75 or more. No one knows that I didn't buy them retail. Other than underwear, socks, shoes, and jeans, nearly ALL my...

    Off-Topic The best fast food value for your buck

    BINGO! That´s the one. Loved their food. And it is, and will always be to me, HIGH POINT ROAD. My dad had a bar at the corner of HPR and Holden Rd where the bank is now from the mid 60s until the late 70s and I grew up in it.

    As is the color, yet you made sure to include that. This entire conversation is immaterial. It is ONE anecdote out of millions of samples. Doesn't mean or represent anything, even if completely true. For that one example, I could provide dozens of EBT/SNAP transactions that APPEARED to be...

    Lol, should I blame you then for a leaking roof at that Daryl´s in 1984 before a Phil Collins concert at the Coliseum? Dripped on three of us all dinner long, along with several other tables on the second floor. The jail was dry however. POURED that night. Getting from the car to the show...

    Off-Topic The best fast food value for your buck

    I grew up across the street from 4-Seasons. My first paycheck job was at the Baskin Robbins that used to be by the main entrance upstairs. It took me 98 seconds to walk from my front door to BR. 36 seconds if it was raining. My mom would get her hair done every Friday near CCM and drop me...

    Off-Topic The best fast food value for your buck

    Remember it?!! Hell, I lived there when I wasn´t at Four Seasons. Bought my first VCR at the Montgomery Wards there. Had my first Banana Margarita at the Fridays that also was near the skating rink.

    Politics CURRENT EVENTS May 22 - July 5

    Actually, many countries do just that. Here in Portugal, there is a government-funded immersive class 5 days a week, 4 hours a day, for 9 months, offered 3 times daily, that also pays a daily stipend of €2 for coffee and pastry during the break. It totals over €300 paid out during the course...

    Try moving to Portugal and EVERYTHING US-based is to the west, including the Atlantic. I have been here 7+ years and still have to think which direction the ocean is in.

    TV Streaming series to talk about.

    My wife and I watched this a month ago and liked it. Suprised me in how much I enjoyed the show. A tad slow at first, but once it gets going, was thoroughly enjoyable. Ted Danson shines. Be warned, if you are older (we´re 61 and 65), it will get somewhat dusty wherever you are watching it)...

    Here´s a video clip from about a year ago. Not record-breaking waves, but still large ones.

    TV Streaming series to talk about.

    I was there in 2020 when the woman set the first record. We retired to Portugal in 2018 and live in the north. But during a break in the lockdown of Covid we went to the Algarve to get away from being locked up for months. However, our vacation was cut short and we had to return home due to...

    Politics CURRENT EVENTS - Easter - April 26

    Living in Europe, I have gotten used to these (no plastic straws allowed). Now obviously, some are better than others, but I don`t plan on leaving a straw in my drink for an hour, so that aspect doesn't bother me. I just don¡t like the ones that your lips stick to because of the moisture...
