I don’t know what this has to do with the article, but you’ve described many of my recent visits to Vegas, except I’m not from Ohio, and the accommodation and food is no longer cheap.

According to the story (you *did* read it, right?) the warrant was dated February 1., twelve days after the alleged narcotics were found - not nine months.

States? The state where I live has *no* rules regarding passing school buses with their lights on. That’s right, there’s no state law, only local. There isn’t any “Stop on Red - State Law” painted on their backs, either.

It’s not because it was a new city - biking in Chicago is insanely hard, even during the five months of good weather.

I used to drive through the Zoo *and* the Marquette to make it to work! They were bad enough.

Nope; they’re called that in the Midwest as well.

Really? Wowza. I am not a lawyer, but hang out with many, and am related to many. Every one of my lawyer friends/relatives says that what Rhyader said is right. I take them at their word.

Although that’s true, it’s also true of some of the low-divorce-rate professions. Odd hour and late-notice/on-call work is very common among physicians, for example, yet they are in the low-divorce-rate group.

My first date with my spouse was in a zoo, but not an “animals in prison” zoo, actually a very good one. We met in a bookstore, but that was by chance, so I call the zoo our first real date, meaning prearranged. This led to marriage, kids and the works, so it worked for me.

It would be nice, but no. An Arizonan with a single felony conviction (like Sheriff Joe) can legally vote. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a Federal conviction or a State conviction.

Wells wants you to take a high-cost “simple interest loan” from the dealership, whose financed loans are at Wells Fargo Dealer Services. Follow the money.

That’s right - a kCal is one thousand calories, so it’s the energy required to raise one *kilogram* of water one degree Celsius. This makes your response true, irrelevant, *and* condescending. You’re welcome.

About a second after being awakened from a poorly-timed nap by the sound of my car going 65 mph through a field of four-foot-tall grass. Nothing was in my field of vision except grass and sky.

If you have a fully up-to-date Windows 7 - well, you’re only right about the Candy Crush Saga. The same data is sent to MS from Windows 7 if it fully up-to-date.

The CPU is a bit pokey on these, but they’re excellent otherwise.

Yes, do all that stuff - it’s really important. I have family in Estes Park, Colorado and they’ve had mandatory evacuation orders several times (three in a twelve-month period a few years ago). They always returned to an undamaged house; sadly, one of my best friends lived just north of Santa Rosa, California. His…

That is the media take, especially if the medium in question is listing to starboard. If you have any street-smarts at all, you’ll be fine.

The Chicago Police operate their own fleet of tow trucks, and if you’re being towed for a parking violation, it is one of their trucks that will show up. Since “wrecker detail” is considered punishment by the cops, when the truck arrives to haul your car away, the driver will be pissed off and packing a gun. Don’t try…

My wife is the oldest in a family where they had three kids in 38 months (wheee!!!) and then a youngest five years after that. It seems to have worked out for them. My mother-in-law was 18, barely-20 and barely-22 when her first three were born, so she had the energy to keep up with them.

The library at the university near my house lends jumper cables.
