  1. From Earnest Tubb to Conway Twitty to Jack White, not to mention a legendary solo career. Truly a country music icon
  2. Yea, but remember to the current group of the GQP all Democrats are the spawn of Satan
  3. Very cool story.....
  4. Corporate speak. What do you expect him to say from a good PR standpoint?
  5. I find the biggest ones around here have had the luxury of a shipyard job with lifetime union benefits. Yet badmouth unions and the government responsible for most of their employment.
  6. I've always found that ironic. The significance is lost on those who bear the plate. They're proud of being a-holes.
  7. Red Sky at night. Sailor's delight.... We had similar shades here around Sunset....lots of rain in the forecast for the weekend.
  8. Remember, DeSantis voted against federal aid for NJ when they had a Republican Gov. Just send them a jumbo pack of paper towels
  9. Now down by 2 TD in the 7th. Still a good run for these guys
  10. More details on the ratings https://centerforpolitics.org/crystalball/articles/notes-on-the-state-of-politics-sept-28-2022/ Earlier this summer, in what was a somewhat surprising dynamic, Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, the Democratic nominee in the state’s closely-watched Senate contest, often polled better than Shapiro (although both were ahead in their respective races). In more recent polling, Shapiro generally seems to be the better-performing Democrat: in a Marist poll released yesterday, Shapiro leads Mastriano 53%-40%, while Fetterman leads his opponent, television doctor Mehmet Oz (R), by a slightly lesser 51%-41% margin. On Monday, a poll from Insider Advantage showed a wider gap: that firm had Fetterman up by just 3, but Shapiro was up by 15. The higher-stakes nature of the Senate race may be contributing to that movement: with the chamber split 50-50, Senate control could well hinge on the Pennsylvania result, and the parties are spending accordingly. When asked about potential plans to spend in the Pennsylvania gubernatorial race, Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, who co-chairs the Republican Governors Association, replied “We don’t fund lost causes and we don’t fund landslides.” Reading between the lines, we’d guess that Mastriano’s contest, from the GOP perspective, falls into the former category. Since Dixon emerged as the GOP nominee, we have seen few indications that she has made headway against Whitmer. According to FiveThirtyEight’s poll database, the only recent survey that showed the race within single-digits was from the GOP-leaning Trafalgar Group. As with Shapiro, ad spending has been heavily slanted in Whitmer’s favor: according to AdImpact, the Whitmer campaign and pro-Democratic groups have outspent conservative forces by more than 8-to-1.
  11. Very pleased with our RAV4 Hybrid getting 40 plus MPG. We're in no hurry to upgrade. That factored with the probability we'll be a one car couple within the next year or so anyway.
  12. Let's pray he keeps his mouth shut as well...
  13. I am starting to see a few businesses set up charging stations for customers. Not just 2 or 3 stations but in some cases a portion of their parking lot. I know DTW has had a couple of spaces in both garages for several years. I'm not sure what their policy is/was for long term usage. But I can see some sort of arrangement with grocery chains, restaurants, etc. even if it's a for pay charging spot. Much like the hourly parking rates/apps
  14. I'll throw this here. The proposal in Va for stations located mostly along interstates. https://www.virginiamercury.com/2022/09/21/what-virginia-wants-to-do-with-100-million-in-electric-vehicle-charging-money/ I figure we're still a few years away from being fully vested in buying into electric vehicles. I am interested to see how the experiments in SE Michigan with "electric" roads. Stretches of highway or city streets that will charge your vehicle. I think Ford is developing a project near the old train station and Michigan has entered into agreement with a firm doing something similar. Here's the AXIO's story https://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-detroit-a7a460fe-3527-4ecd-ba59-3a5b44b3f32f.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axioslocal_detroit&stream=top
  15. Another book.... https://www.axios.com/2022/09/27/denver-riggleman-mark-meadows-text-messages?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiossneakpeek&stream=top They all need to be brought up on conspiracy charges.
  16. Those of us a bit older prefer 634-5789
  17. Erie takes the first game of the AA Final against Somerset. One win away from a championship https://www.milb.com/gameday/patriots-vs-seawolves/2022/09/24/713768#game_state=final,lock_state=final,game_tab=box,game=713768
  18. A quick google check shows there are still a few assumable loan programs out there. Primarily FHA or VA type loans. The down payment would probably have to be prohibitive these days, assuming the seller would want close to whatever equity they've put into the home.
  19. Maybe bring back a 21st century version of the Civilian Conservation Corps. Possibly add some sort of program like teach for America or something like that. Make it part of requirement to get some sort of relief on tuition debt.
  20. That was the Divisional series. Championship series starts Sunday
  21. It's probably more humane than what I've heard about in rural areas around here with hunting dogs that won't hunt. There's a lot of dumpimg going on
