    What's the consensus on taking the blue line from ORD to downtown with me and my two kids?  15 boy and 12 girl?  We arrive tomorrow (Monday)at 945am

    it's fine.  i've lived here for over a decade and there has been a bit more crazy on the L since COVID, but the blue line from ORD isn't too bad; hell my wife took it 2 weeks ago with our 7 and 2 year olds from ORD.

    Memphis is just a dumbass racist who has always hated David; that's it; period. I don't understand all of the confusion as to why he's gunning for David. 

     

    I don't think that is the case.  I think he sees what most of us see.  This was supposed to be All-Stars.  David was on all of 4 hours of a season (if that).  He doesn't think the guy belongs on All-Stars.  Also, I believe Memphis was a last minute addition b/c Rachel was supposed to join, but the Producers declined when they found out she was pregnant.  So I believe Memphis was the last one chosen.  He probably has a chip on his shoulder that David was chosen for All-Stars over him, who finished 2nd in his season to one of the all-time greats.  

  3. i live in the midwest where it is relatively flat (except for speed bumps).  honestly this is mostly a "toy" to ride around with my daughters while they scoot around the neighborhood... but i can definitely get use of it to do quick trips to the corner store/liquor store.  I just don't know about the idea of lugging the thing around inside the store while I shop.  the Xioami is much cheaper, I believe, so i may look into that. 

  4. been a while since this thread has been visited.  anyone in the market or have advice?  I'm thinking about the Segway Ninebot MAX Original but curious if anyone has any they'd recommend?  40lbs seems a bit heavy to lug around once i reach my destination - but seems to be the highest quality with highest range - so the battery must take up most of that weight.

  5. this thread was a lifesaver.  I've been struggling with slow wifi on the far reaches of my house.  picked up the Google Nest on sale from Costco 2 weeks ago (4 pack for $400) and it was revolutionary.  far reaches of the house are getting nearly 20x better download speeds than before.  thank you all.

  6. 5-year old daughter just threw a temper tantrum when I told her to pick up the stuff she tossed out of the pantry and all over the floor in search of a toy and yelled "I LOVE MOMMY MORE THAN YOU!"

    that was an interesting elevation of events.

  8. Joined a group of fellow bourbon lovers. We partner with a liquor store and send a few of our guys to the distillery to pick a barrel for our group to purchase and buy bottles from. First expression was this New Riff. Total cinnamon bomb. On the docket are 4R and KC next

  9. What a great way to start a Thursday. Driving to work and best bourbon liquor store in the city (and near my office) posts on their IG that I follow closely that they just put this on the shelf. Did a u-turn from the office to snag it

     

    Their store picks are killer!

  11. Downtown Atlanta... drinking a Manhattan at a steakhouse bar and a 2 oz pour of GTS for $20 is taunting me before dinner reservation. Decisions decisions....

  12. I’ve got a bottle. $100 is too much. Really incredible rye though

     

    Also bought a bottle for my FiL. His new favorite rye. He’s a brown water novice so I had to explain that’s not something he will find at every liquor store without sounding like a tool when he mixed it with diet coke for my MiL

  13. It’s not hard to get, just gotta get used to paying out the ass for shipping.

    International purchase is the line I haven’t crossed. But you are tempting me
