You didn't splurge on renting the gopro camera on your helmet? I guess yppej can't fault you for your spend-thriftiness on this trip...

Personally I'd be in favor of figuring out a way to mimic the symphony orchestra audition process. The people auditioning are behind a screen so that...

Seems like a good idea to me, sort of in the same vein as how I decided a few weeks ago to stop going on facebook on the weekend. Everyone's posts...

And the California supreme court has kicked this off the ballot. I'm not surprised. One of the things that most articles I have read on this topic...

I was thinking the same thing. I don't follow the issue closely but I remember reading a while back that the whole marijuana industry, at least as...

While that argument is unlikely to persuade too many people in the middle it may persuade reasonable republicans who hate that their party’s...

Not necessarily. Mueller is a professional, not a politician.

Or we can hope that the Mueller investigation shows that 1) he was fully aware of how his campaign was working with Russia and that he encouraged it,...

His retraction came across the same way his revised statement about Charlottesville did. Like a petulant, unrepentant child being forced to say he...

Not really. It’s just an indicator of how successful the fox news state media has been at convincing his supporters that up is down and good is bad....

We had a nice weekend getaway to Sonoma last weekend. We go probably 3 times a year, do a few wine tastings, eat at our favorite restaurants up...

Count me among the "love my dishwasher" crowd. Like Steve, ours heats its own water, uses little water, is super quiet, does a fantastic job, and...

That seems reasonable since people do the same thing. When I was growing up, and when I went to visit my folks as an adult, my parents always put...

I think you (Tradd) are doing the right thing by venting here and just letting it go. Venting to others who may know these people will just drag you...

I tend to trust the reviews if there are a lot and the average is good, and will then just read the one and two star reviews to see if there were...

So awesome! Congratulations!

Fingers crossed for you!

I've not looked into this but can you mix it with something? Perhaps in a glass of orange juice or other strong flavored drink? And I agree with...

Mine was infrequently vile, which seems to be fairly common, at least among people on this thread. But as catherine pointed out the test didn't ask...

Perhaps now would be a good time to invest in Carmax.

It's 56 with a high predicted in the mid 60's today. 20 miles inland though is a completely different story.

I dunno. Identity politics, racism and cultural warfare seems to have worked for the other side.

The thing I find fascinating, in a sad way, is that all these "constitutional conservatives" are sitting quietly as trump suggested repeatedly that...

I'm not religious, but saying the rosary to focus and fall asleep probably makes sense because it redirects the mind away from whatever it is that is...

For me the takeaway from this is that candidates who focus on the issues that are imporant to regular people will do well. Hopefully democratic...

So, conservatives are allowed to say negative things about liberals but when liberals do the same we're just whiny interest groups. Got it. If all...

George Will seems to agree with you. ...

Fixed it for you.

While I agree that vague, directionless hate is not particularly productive, you have to give the man credit. As a reality tv star, par excellence,...

It’s actually the steel in the car triggering the sensor. Bike riders know to trigger the light by rolling over the little wire lines. This necame an...

It's interesting. I haven't eaten any beef in decades but reading these posts I can remember as clearly as if it were yesterday what a McDonald's...
