  1. This was a ranked choice election. IIRC it was the second vote involving the top 3 vote getters from the "preliminary round" (my terms). It was a 3 way vote, 2 Republicans split the vote giving Petola the win. https://www.npr.org/2022/08/31/1120327126/palin-peltola-begich-alaska-special-house-election-results This was a special election to fill a vacant seat until January.
  2. Back when we lived in Farmington Hills (13 & Haggerty) everything was underground. That was 2000-2017. The subdivision dates back to 1988 or so. Everything was underground. The only time there was a major outage was if it a substation and that only happened with the major blackout in the mid 2000’s.
  3. I was having those issues with the snowblower several years ago. It was especially frustrating after being diligent about servicing it each Spring. I talked to one of the counter guys at the place I bought it and had it serviced. They pointed out the special small engine blend to me. I think I may have started using it on the mower about the same time.
  4. There is some mystical (Native American) connotations in there that originally set church goers off in the '70s...among other things https://americansongwriter.com/behind-song-norman-greenbaum-spirit-sky/ I remember getting lectured by some "church lady" one day over the lyrics of Blood Sweat and Tear's "And When I Die". She was upset over "I can swear there ain't no heaven, but I pray there ain't no hell" Hey, but Jesus is just alright by me..
  5. It is nice to see Matt Smith working again after Doctor Who. Exchanged the Tardis for a dragon
  6. They all have grievances. It's Festivus all the time in GQOP World
  7. These are the same group of people dancing to Spirit in the Sky thinking it's a religious song. Their parents probably watched Lawrence Welk who once featured "One Toke Over the Line" sweet Jesus. Incidentally there was a New York DJ, I believe who did a syndicated Sunday show featuring "God Rock" lyrics in the late 60s early 70s. Scott Ross later joined Pat Robertson's organization.
  8. There are synthetic fuels on the market at your big box stores. They’re a bit more expensive but do the job. At least when I last had to do something like that 6 years or so ago. Especially for the snow blower. It was always a pain to start the first significant snowfall
  9. I think I know why he was "pushed" out.
  10. More evidence of despicable haters...
  11. I'm wondering if there is anything in there that might be used as blackmail. Maybe it's too many stories about the Hoover FBI but Trump does seem to have that mindset.
  12. They were perfect notes.
  13. Rove is still looking for the missing Romney votes in Ohio...
  14. More dangerous than TDFG (The Disgraced Former Guy)
  15. The FAUX spin seems to be why didn't the ask sooner.
  16. I tend to take ad buys with a grain of salt but this seems to be happening a lot. Mitch knows what's coming unless something major happens to change it.
  17. Give him a smile and show a bit of cleavage.....
  18. Probably a bunch of Minecraft stuff and maybe he's also into Hearthstone. The shame of it all..
