  1. Rivera will finish the season
  2. There's a place in Livonia that sells live turkeys (at least they were live until shortly before you picked them up). They run about $4.99 a LB. Tried them once couldn't really tell the difference https://groperti9.wixsite.com/roperti-turkey-farm
  3. This is a well pampered, woke turkey. No self respecting MAGA would touch it with a 15 food pole
  4. Yankees have hired Brad Ausmus as bench coach
  5. Not to flog a dead turkey, however still looking for that elusive $90 bird https://www.fb.org/market-intel/thanksgiving-dinner-cost-relief-but-still-high-relative-to-recent-years
  6. Could they possibly lease it out to the Bears on NFL Sundays? That would seem to make $ense to me
  7. Nobody wants to be in Philly in January, ever
  8. I just checked our favorite BBQ place...a 16-18 pound locally sourced honey brined smoked hen is $90, if it's fried it's $95. They say it feeds up to 8 people which comes out to a bit less than $12 a serving. Throw in gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, potatoes, green bean casserole etc it's expensive. But you save a hell of a lot of time on labor.
  9. How big was that turkey? My local Food Lion's most expensive one was $2.99 fully cooked. A "fresh" turkey was $1.49. No wonder Trumpublicans are complaining. They're lousy shoppers
  10. Here's how Biden has destroyed the economy Signed an infrastructure bill to repair our roads, waterways, bridges and railroads, and bring high-speed internet to rural communities. · Signed the Inflation Reduction Act, making health insurance plans more affordable, lowering drug costs. · Signed the CHIPS and Science Act, providing funding to produce semiconductor chips in the U.S.A. · Traveled to war zones, and brought the USA back to the global table as a strong respected partner and leader. · For addressing climate change his administration has provided millions to reduce greenhouse emissions and promote clean energy technologies, moving our country to greater self-sufficiency in energy production. · Oversaw the passage of landmark gun legislation; though not nearly enough; the bill is the first major federal firearms legislation since the 1990s, and a significant step forward. · He arranged to have certain student loans forgiven and is still working to do more. · After a very difficult global economic period, inflation is going down, and hourly wage increases exceeded inflation for the first time in two years this past summer. What did Trump or any other sitting Republican do in the past 2 plus years (2021 to today) that helped the average American, not the Oligarch Class
  11. I know the Parkway quite well. Grew up near Roanoke, Va and driving it was part of my Spring ritual for many years. The Skyline Drive (paid) and Parkway are great leisure trips. One of my new favorites is coming off I68 inCumberland, Maryland and heading thru Paw Paw, WV into Winchester, Va. The real hassle is trying to avoid Fredericksburg and I 95 once I get back into the corridor toward Richmond and points east.
  12. I've reached the age where I can only take so much of the turnpikes, they're great if you need to be somewhere quickly. After years of dealing with the paid highways in Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, there are times where you just need to slow down and enjoy the back roads for a while.
  13. I hate the PA Turnpike with a passion, having spent many years dealing with that dang Breezewood exit. It has gotten better in the last few years, but still I could have retired a few years earlier if I saved the tolls. There was one interesting experience thru Upstate NY. Driving back to Chicago from a visit to Cooperstown several years ago along Rt 17, my son and encountered a massive rainstorm outside Corning. I think we found the last motel room nearby since the highway was going to be closed for several hours. Up the next morning, cruising along, and while passing a vehicle on a hill we encountered a County Mountie at its crest...near Hornel. Definitely a speed trap. I got the ticket, mailed them a check when we got home, in a Christmas card.
  14. https://open.substack.com/pub/thebulwark/p/viktor-orban-defender-christianity-poseur?r=45wcm&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email I came upon this and got a glimpse of the future if the current version of the Righteous wins out and Trump is elected. A glimpse of Orban's Hungary and the New Christianity. The rest is enlightening
  15. Maybe start with the RFK Stadium site. It's been discussed. https://www.washingtonian.com/2023/07/31/so-whats-going-on-with-the-rfk-stadium-site/ Poplar Point? https://poplarpointdc.org/articles/bisnow-dc-moves-forward-with-efforts-to-develop-110-acre-waterfront-site
  16. We moved to Detroit from Chicago in December 2000. The first game we attended was the last game of the regular season against the then hapless Bears, just needing a win to make the playoffs.
  17. Fire the coach, GM, move the facilities to Downtown DC where they belong, change the name to Doofus
  18. Looks like they need a few more footballs
  19. If you complain about books and schools being "Too Woke" but allow your offspring to wear FJB shirts and hats, don't ever talk to me about taking US morals back. As a parent you're a giant hypocrite.
  20. I'd consider supporting passing along the fine to the candidate. But then they'd probably scream censorship
  21. If I remember correctly it's an FCC regulation. I am assuming you could deny it if the ad used one of the seven words you used to not be able to say on the radio.
