In the abstract, I get the whole sweet n sour thing. But my God, biting into an Oreo and getting a mouthful of pickle just sounds awful.

What Ragland didn’t expect was a bunch of people she didn’t know showing up to clean up her yard and cut her grass and wanting nothing more than to lend a hand to someone who needed the help

Kudos to Diana, she’s doing the Lord’s work as always.

Yep she’s really selling herself short.  She looks fantastic.

Oh yeah I’m that same age. Wasn’t sure what I wanted to be more: fighter pilot, motorcycle racer, or some Batman-style day/night combo of both.

Remember I Love The 80s on VH-1?

Yep same here. Watched a lot of NY/LA/SF. London/Miami/Boston kinda run together. Seattle stands out, but Hawaii is kinda where I realized that it was... not fake, but manufactured — and tapped out.

Especially when you order it with the 300-horsepower engine

Honest to God, I saw that top photo and thought John Turturro had grown a beard.

Amen. They’re not handing out gift certificates for going under the speed limit.

I’ve done the Tuesday bicycle night at COTA. The worst part about Turn 1 is the runoff area — THANK GOODNESS FOR THIS EXPANSIVE RUNOFF AREA, I MIGHT HAVE LOST CONTROL OF MY BIKE AT (checks computer) 4 MPH.

Crue: most of it was pretty bad to begin with, so yes they have not aged well at all. Though I could probably rustle up a decent playlist of 10 or so songs. I think.

LOL I just watched the HBO doc on Theranos before reading this, BS detector is now set to “very sensitive”

Not disagreeing with you, these things are way overhyped and reek of Serious Food Thoughts. But it I’ll give them somewhat of a pass because usually it’s one tiny place selling the sushi / spring rolls / crickets / whatever among the hundred beer / soda / popcorn / hotdog stands, so I guess they gotta get the word out?

I don’t know who the announcer is, but he’s got a good voice, and a great exasperated tone. Probably a bonus working for the Pelicans.

Thanks, I’ve been researching and getting up to speed on HDHPs/HSAs and you’ve helped clarify a lot:

Two contradictory follow-up questions, from someone who just switched jobs to a company that offers an HSA:

I really like both Reflektor and Everything Now (big fan of coveralls). I have a copy of The Suburbs gathering dust somewhere, I’ll give it another try.

I’m going to try and catch them at the Quad Cities casino first, just so I can be all like “yeah they’re big now in Kansas City, but us real fans caught them in Davenport...”

Good point. And it goes with out saying that Fox News would have been at DEFCON 1 if President Obama ever even looked at a flag wrong.
