Well the obvious thing you’re missing is that, the SUVs getting 30 mpg are usually hybrids or crossovers that are actually just the same size as the small cars, just lifted higher. And if you compare to small car hybrids, like the Prius, you’re indeed looking at 60 mpg.

The producers’ line was that Smith got more for his name recognition from his previous starring role in Doctor Who, but Foy alone received a Golden Globe, an Emmy, and two SAG awards for her work on the show.

So she earned the accolades after signing her contract. Whereas Smith earned his before signing his contract.

I don’t think they do, unless you consider giving to Christian organizations in general to be anti-LGBTQ.

If you bought a medallion you had a reasonable expectation that the system would be maintained. The cities have decided not to maintain the system so the cab drivers should be compensated.

The problem was that that was the price when he bought it. Then it plunged. They are going for around 180k now. I know a couple of cab drivers that were millionaires from their medallions before they crashed. And the city doesn’t set the prices, the market does. The city does set the over all amount

Not only that, but my favorite conversation from a cabbie after showing up 30 minutes LATE was
“Where you headed?”
Me: “East side.”
Cabbie: “How far?”
Me: “All the way to the other end of town.”
Cabbie: “I don’t go that far, I’ll take you half way unless you want to pay for a return fare.”
Me: “(Step out of vehicle) No…

The medallions are sold at auction, so the market sets the price, not the city. Some people speculated that the price of medallions would always rise, and paid more than they were worth considering the current income they could make from them, hoping a rise in the price of fares and the value of the medallion would…

This is terrible for this man and other people like him, but the problem isn’t with Uber, it’s that a medallion is $700k. This artificial economy has always been problematic. There are also issues with ride sharing, but the answer lies somewhere in the middle, not protecting this outdated system.

When a pedestrian ramp provides access to the street, it automatically creates a legal pedestrian crossing regardless of whether the crossing is striped or not. That is the law.

He had the strength of five men.

Who got the spot?

Later that night they planned to burn a large wooden T on someone’s lawn. To let them know it was the Tennis team.

It’s great until your dog smears dog poop from one end of the house to the other.

That’s never happened to me in 10 years of owning a robo-vac, because I always do a quick walk thru before pressing the start button and I have a good doggo. But it did happen to my sister about a month ago. The horror, my God, the horror.

Remember guys. It really wasn’t all that long ago, before the advent of smartphones, that people dumped each other over email. Yes...we all knew someone who did it. Sent the email, closed it, and wiped their hands clean...both men and women. Before that, it was dumping over voicemail.

Man, I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to speak to the people at tables near me, or particularly enjoyed it when it happened. What sucks about takeout is that the presentation of the food tends to suffer, crispy things get soggy, etc.

So, I can use a wooden stirrer, which will work with a full cup of coffee and no lid, works with cups, mugs and other containers, I can raise and lower in the cup to get thorough mixing, is made from a renewable resource and can be recycled, and is portable, or... I can use a device that either requires a partially…

You do have to be pretty far gone from my experience. When I was in college I studied abroad and on our flight to our “abroad” destination one of my friends had a wee bit too much to drink. My friend passed out on the plane and was carried off in Taipei, which was our connecting flight. Luckily another friend took her…
