  5. If we still lived in SE Michigan and had two vehicles, I'd consider it. One car and several road trips of 3 hours or more a year just does t seem to work financially for us.
  6. We briefly looked at a plug-in hybrid the last go round. The combination of difference in price plus the cost to set up our garage to accommodate the electric side. Also the battery size took a significant bite out of the storage area of the SUV (Tuscon). That said, we're happy with getting about 45-50 mpg...
  7. Any gas stations near airport car rental returns will be higher than anywhere else. That said looking at Gas Buddy near me are running about $4.20 a gallon. That's the mainstream WAWA and Harris Teeter stations, it's a dime more out my way by theb interstate

  9. Washington and Baltimore share a large portion of Virginia and I think parts of North Carolina as their "Broadcast Market". I can't find a good map to show the territory, but Mama Googles says the teams share DC, Maryland,Virginia, Delaware, Central and Eastern North Carolina, South Central Pennsylvania (surprising because you'd think there would be a dividing line between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia) and West Virginia. The Nationals joined the MLB.com group this year so I'm not sure this still holds. They and Baltimore shared MSN as provider for their games
  10. Working for Faux News is a prerequisite for lower level cabinet positions
  11. Hunter Biden, something, something, something. MAGAs have their own rules
  12. Interesting, https://awfulannouncing.com/mlb/directs-cleveland-guardians-adjust-broadcast-team.html?fbclid=IwdGRleARgXhdleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xNzM4NDc2NDI2NzAzNzAAAR4TzjE-qm97Tn3D4qwmyvBlrerDDytJmjxn-FAMIkdRWR9njfv3UcF-kgxlqg_aem_dw-TPr_dfuwK-Dn_GcBXDw Just wondering if Bobby Scales moving to the TV broadcasts this week may be somewhat related...
  13. ”I forbear to say anything of New York, for I confess I am not able to form any opinion of them…I think they are at least as unenlightened in the Nature & Importance of our political Disputes as any one of the united Colonies.” 2/2

  15. Very much so.
  16. I didn't mind too much when we had a yard. The back yard was a bear, however. It backed up to a wooded preserve area with quite a few walnut trees. Then there was this steep hill coming off the driveway. That was the killer and I'm not sure a riding mower would have helped. Looking at the pictures, your front yard is a lot like ours was. Our next door neighbors were out there constantly on weekends. The wife was obsessive. He once bought a new mower and she went out with a ruler to measure the grass to make sure it was the correct height. I'm sure she would have used a level to check thje bushes if she could.
  17. I've tried to model it a few times with A-I Chatgpt keeps wanting to combine Virginia's Northern Neck with far SW Virginia. That would never work
  18. I have completely come around to having Congressional (and statewide) districts with Multiple members. Instead of 13 congressional districts, divide the state into 4 regions, maybe 5 if you give the UP it's own district. One big election, the top two or three vote getters get to go to Washington. Same with Lansing
