I’m confused. Are you saying the M1 is good (underrated) but not fast? Or is it overrated?

Aren’t those benches on the “no pedestrians allowed” roundabout?
I am pro-roundabout, but there are so many audibles called by traffic engineers in their design. Case in point, this stoplight-ridden mess:

I live near Shenandoah and I still miss Letchworth Park. It really is one of the best parks I’ve ever been to. This photographer takes amazing photos of it to give you a sense of the area. https://www.facebook.com/KeithWaltersPhotography/

I’ve never heard that argument but it’s a really good one. It doesn’t disprove the claim, but it sure renders it impotent.

2. Maple Syrup. Buy a three quarts of Grade A amber and one quart of grade B blackstrap stuff. And only trust it if it comes in a tan plastic bottle that just says Vermont Maple Syrup with no brand markings. Maybe a picture of a deer on it.

Vermont is beautiful throughout — the 75th most beautiful little town is almost as nice as the most beautiful little town, and 75th place isn’t priced and filled with New Yorkers. Skip Killington, go to Middlebury. Skip Manchester, stay in Bennington.
1. Skiing. New England skiing these days is more about great demand…

Well that’s why you have to own a set of non-Newtonian fluid measuring cups, too.

Would anyone recommend other services that do this? I need to record a videoconference training next week.

1. Honestly, six hours isn’t that long: you blow that sitting on your couch I bet.

I recommend getting four at once. If one of your tires needs replacing, the other three probably do too. 

Modern usage is determined by the people! By which I mean TV programming.

I was at the large backpacking site at the bottom of the grand canyon after a rough night of storms: I asked two different groups with this tent how it weathered the storm, and they both said they stayed dry all night and loved the tent— there’s no higher praise.

Calling it a boycott makes it sound more dramatic than it seems. I’m saying let’s not use services we think are making the world worse or are screwing us personally. I do that whenever I can.

Amex is taking advantage of the fact that merchants have their hands tied in that they need to accept major networks, but by…

I agree! They just can afford better service by screwing merchants, who have to pass the cost off onto all of their customers, Amex users and others alike.

Or hey, you could also not use American Express because they just won in court to set a precedent that will end up screwing lots of people https://www.vox.com/the-big-idea/2018/7/3/17530320/antitrust-american-express-amazon-uber-tech-monopoly-monopsony

Yeah but Trader Joe’s doesn’t tell you that you are part of the ALL ONE GOD FAITH ON THE SPACESHIP EARTH

oh, I finished, it just didn’t take very long and I left unimpressed and slightly embarrassed for coming

The penis museum mirrors its focus. It’s smaller than you’d expect, overrated, and smells weird. I left unsatisfied.

“I have put more money into upgrading insulation and windows than I ever have in cosmetic work.” These are the kinds of things that deserve attention! Pay the extra penny/kWh for renewable credits, insulate the crap out of your house, be smart about your habits and you can keep your house at 62 and do less harm than…
