  8. People who own compact cars, yet park in the regular parking spots instead of in the compact car spots. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. Montesquieu - wrote The Spirit of the Laws which outlined separation of powers between the 3 branches of government and heavily influenced our Constitution. Jefferson - Declaration of Independence which set out basic human rights. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. So we’re having some kids over for my son’s 9th birthday party and she tells me to put away the long-reach butane lighter that is up on the third shelf of our pantry. I turn to her with a puzzled look and say, “you mean the one you can’t ever get to light”? I get tone, but move it even further out of sight. Then comes candle-lighting time, and she comes over with some matches, but, after about three attempts, she still can’t light all 9 candles. I get the long-reach lighter back out and light the rest of the candles, then put it back up near the top of the pantry. After cake, I see the matches left there on the counter and turn ragey.

  13. The prized possession of every eight year old... http://www.toyarchive.com/STAForSale/NEW2001+/Voltron/VoltronDieCastLionLoose1a.jpg Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. We have a Jenn-Air and it’s been solid for the past 9 years. It’s a side by side with bottom pull out section for the freezer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. Mine wastes about 35 gallons of water to be able to wash and clean food containers so that they can be recycled. Then proceeds to leave the lights on and a/c set to 70 after she leaves for work.
  16. 100% agree with this. Brother MFC line are workhorses and their customer support is actually helpful. I suggested to my father in law that he get one and calls from him asking me about printer issues have gone to zero (also suggested he get a Mac).
  17. Rockets in 7, home court holds true, except each team wins one on the road.
  18. Well, you gotta go up Mount Royal (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Royal), which is how Montreal got its name.

    Wine

    Other option is to order a Malbec blend like this Vistalba (a bargain at $15 at Spec’s - https://specsonline.com/shop/wine/vistalba-corte-c-carlos-pulenta-2009/). It’s 76% Malbec, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% bonarda. They are tougher to find at restaurants, but to me, they have that strong Malbec start with a good Cabernet finish, whereas a straight Malbec wine finishes a bit watery.
  20. Same here, really loved Night Court as a kid.
  21. Wow, her rolls have rolls. I cannot unsee that.
  22. Nope, didn’t make it up there. The views from the POV bar on the roof of the W are nice.
  23. It will probably come down to whether Di Maria can stay healthy. When he plays, they seem to find scoring easier.
  24. Will do now - you’re the third person who recommended the place.
  25. We’re at the W now and seems pretty central. Tomorrow I’m driving to Monticello for the day while my wife is doing a mock for a Supreme Court case on Monday. We walked through the new Trump hotel that was the Old Post Office and it was just gaudy.
