Nothing that crazy for me, but one of the worst storms I’ve seen was a blizzard in March 2005 (skip to 1:50 for the shot of a tow truck rescuing another tow truck).

They are terrible because the number one thing you need, especially with ice, is leverage. What you need in a scraper is a long handle, like this one (though the brush positioning is a little awkward). You put one hand on the scraper, one hand on the end and scrape like you’re using a wood planer. It’s super fast and…

Even more than that, you can schedule your payment as a direct debit to be taken out whenever you want. You can do your taxes in February, schedule your payment for April 15th, and walk away.

So they’re comparing the old promo rates to the new standard rates, sans promo? That’s awfully misleading.

The only reporting I can find on this all leads back to the same Albany Times-Union article.

If I want to burn my property, that’s well within my rights because it’s my property. If DNC is burning the trademarks because it’s pissed about losing the bid, that’s well within their rights as the owner of the trademarks. It might not be a smart business move. They’d probably be better off negotiating a price and…

Obviously they have some value if people are getting outraged over them. Not $50m worth of value, given that the change is going through, but some value certainly.

The Curry Co, who opened the hotels in 1901 and had run them since, was bought by a Japanese company in the 1990s. The parks service refused to renew their contract because of that, hence the move to Delaware North.

I’m not getting the outrage. Hotels change names all the time when a new company buys them, usually because they’re named after the company that owns, but sometimes not.

This actually seems better to require television service instead of internet service, especially if you’re already an AT&T customer.

I had this running on my laptop while my wife and I were watching television and she made me pause the show so we could watch this it was so crazy.

Given that HBO has its own streaming service now, probably never.

A print. A Picasso print. A rare one, yes, but let’s not pretend like this is some super-valuable, one-of-a-kind piece of art here. I doubt an art museum would even display it.

One thing before buying a gift card: Make sure the person you’re giving it to actually has a location of that place near them. I’ve still got a Fandango gift card from last Christmas because our local theatre uses movietickets.com. Nothing says “I didn’t put even the least bit of thought into your gift” like a gift…

Worth noting also that the only reason it didn’t break Jurassic World’s global opening record is because it didn’t open in China this weekend, a country that added almost $100m to Jurassic World’s opening box office.

Once last night. That’s the only planned for right now. I may end up seeing it again over the holidays if some friends or family want to go and, if it’s still in IMAX when we get back, I’ll probably go see it in that.

‘04. We were over there occasionally, but the “dry” definitely needs air quotes.

Olaf or Carleton? Ole grad, here.

Just to be clear, this still can be charged by the state, if the state has laws against such activity which, in this case, they should.

I was watching this game live and I swear I saw him move his legs once. I thought he’d gotten knocked out because the trainer had to say something to him a few times before he seemed to get a response.
