Certainly it’s worth seeing Pixar movies on a big screen.

Cars 3 is actually really good (never saw #2 - heard it was terrible) and it’s on Netflix (I have a small child and watch it at least once a week)

Newt Gingrich should have another mint.  They’re wafer thin.

This made me lol out loud.  At work.  At 7:25 in the morning.  After having only 4 hours 42 minutes of sleep.  Thank you!

It is both of those things! I loooove the crunchy little olives and feta stuffed olives the most. Artichoke hearts are a VERY close second.

I always liked Illinoise, even though no one uses it. It would be the logical term from the French-based word. Yes, Wisconsinites is the correct term, although I’ve always liked Wisconsinians. Wisco/Sconnie is big at the UW schools now.

I think I remember the Illini from the second Lord of the Rings.

I have spent my entire life in Illinois, I have never heard Illini outside of reference to the university.

You probably get more Google hits for Illini because of college football.

Not too long ago I discovered fIb is actually a national term, always referring specifically to drivers from Illinois.

I am a proud Fucking Illinois Bastard. Cuz at least I am not from Wisconsin. :)

Thumbs up for Braeburns! Obviously I couldn’t fit every good apple on this list, but agreed they are a very nice apple.

Can’t swear to it but there was a grove of apple trees in West Des Moines, Iowa back in the 60s that grew Braeburns.  FTW.

Hahahahaha!

“Red Delicious” can go to hell. Gravenstein apples are prized in North America, Europe and New Zealand, but they’re hard to get because the season is short and production is low. There is an annual cult meeting apple fair in Sonoma County, California in August.

And Jonagold. Those are my standbys.

She did surgery on a roll!

Team Braeburn 4lyfe. I think most people like a crisper apple hence getting no love, Braeburns a squarely in the soft/mealy camp. Which is where I like to be.

That will do nicely, thank you.
