Yeah, gradual switchover is nonsense. It does not matter what you are switching to, even from good food to cheaper food — the dog will always pick the new food out and ignore the old food. Dogs might be creatures of habit, but apparently variety drives them wild.

I wear a helmet & eye protection when I ride a bicycle, for crying out loud, let alone a motorcycle. Some 20-25 years ago, I was riding downhill with a helmet but no eye protection, going over 30mph, when a bee flew straight into my eye. Fortunately, she went in back first instead of butt first, but it still felt…

Back in the late Eighties & early Nineties, I worked in a small town video store. We had a big screen TV up front, and Sign o’ the Times was one one of the movies that we played on it constantly. I used to have every single moment of that movie committed to memory as a result, but I have not seen it since then…

Yes, I quite understand the concept; my question was related to the comment that he made that “most” forbid string betting, which to me implies that some do not. And I have never played anywhere where it was allowed, so that implication surprised me.

I guess that I have spent far more time in home games than at casinos, but is string betting allowed anywhere? I have never played a game in even the most casual setting where that is allowed. I cannot imagine a casino allowing it. (This is referencing your “most” qualifier.)

“And who are you?”

“Spoken in any other context,” can anyone point to an example if Trump or any member of his administration taking the middle ground on pretty much anything prior to this nonsense statement? Was I asleep and missed something?

That was just so he could use the HOV lane.

“My mom never hid the fact that my dad chose his career over us. What was it she always said?”

We refrain from that on the principal that if each succeeding administration attempts to prosecute the preceding one, it might lead to the following one prosecuting its own, and no one wants that to happen. So instead, they protect each other to protect themselves.

I thought we were Beyond that.

Took it out for a little more aggressive hooning this weekend than I have to date. And I will continue to ramp it up every weekend. I just figure that I want at least 1000 miles on the clock before I try the launch control. Sure, that is pretty arbitrary, but the way that it operates just seems to scream…

I will be the bastard and point out that since I only have about 700 miles on the RS that I bought a month and a half ago, I have yet to try out the launch control and see if I can hit that 4.6 second mark.

While you did put some some great places under the list for Minneapolis (and it is worth noting that some of those places like Brasa, Black Sheep, & Revival have St. Paul branches as well, and the St. Paul branch for Revival has a greatly expanded menu) you left off all the Vietnamese restaurants, and therefore your…

I had a guy in a Ram back out in front of me while I was riding about a decade ago without even looking — I suspect he was late for work — and I reflexively clutched the brakes, going over sideways and coming to an instantaneous stop from 25 mph. Shattered my collarbone into six pieces and fractured several ribs. He…

And still, we must raise an eyebrow even at that:

I have had cluster headaches for thirty five years and while injectable Imitrex has not been around that long, since it is so expensive and I have experimented I can speak to the fact that it does indeed lose potency, but well after the expiration date. I tend to keep it at least a year or two past its expiration…

The Twin Cities is a foodie’s dream. In addition to places like you mentioned, there are, oh, off the top of my head:

Could not get through more than a few minutes of the first of the two new movies, and the commercials for the new series looked even worse, so I can hardly blame you.

Did he? My question is, how many people are behind the man filming things? How many other witnesses are there? In other words, did both the plain clothes & the uniformed cop know that they had messed up and just quietly turn tail, or was it would they have turned belligerent and they did not because there were too…
