    Have you tried the Loyo Burger at Local Yocal? It’s just the other side of 5. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. There is no decent Russian wine. It is too sweet. The worst is the church wine...if you want to abuse your palate, go buy a bottle of Kagor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Don't try to contact him. He will be recuperating in Sochi and will not be able to return calls.
  5. I like it, but most voters don't know Leningrad, and they'll be confused when they try to find it on a map.
  6. Mitchie, Mitchie, Putin’s Bitchy
  7. My wife works in a DFW city government. She got word yesterday that property evaluations are down across the metroplex.
  8. We were there during the Princess Marathon two years ago. The only issue was transportation to Epcot the morning of the race. Last year we flew in the day of the race and went to MK - no problems at all.
  9. This should be run in daily ads until the election.
  10. Yes, he is included. They added an intro to the program that pleads for everyone to be respectful. By the way, animatronic Trump is much more eloquent than the real thing.

  12. We like Port Orleans French Quarter. It’s close to all the parks and the resort only has one bus stop. You can catch a boat to Disney Springs.

    If anyone is up McKinney way, check out Local Yokal. Pair your burger with a whiskey flight.
  14. Maybe I'm misreading your post, but Animal Kingdom does serve alcohol. The Nomad Lounge is great though the service can be flaky.
  15. Should be peak season for the Brazilian tour groups, who change the scenery considerably.
  16. La Cava del Tequila is outstanding, but don't start there because you won't get much further.
  17. Two people in the house, I and my wife. I like to go to Market Street twice a week., usually Thursday and Sunday. It's hard to keep salad greens fresh for an entire week. There is also an occasional trip to Trader Joe's to pick up a supply of croutons. I have list of items I buy at Costco. When I need something on the list, I'll check the supply of everything else. On average, I pick-up about six items a trip. I cook in large quantities and package meals for the freezer. I just cooked about five pounds of pull-pork for tacos which yielded one meal about six bags for future consumption. Some weeks I don't need to purchase meat.
  18. This week's "This American Life" investigates one father's fight against conspiracy theorists (Part 1) and Alex Jones (Part 2). The segment on Alex Jones is brutal. Beware the Jabberwock
  19. I retired from teaching and believe I made sufficient money for my efforts. But across the profession, there is not enough compensation to attract a highly-qualified educator for every classroom - if that is a goal, teachers need to be paid more.
  20. My wife and I arrived in Orlando on Sunday (two days ago) and checked into Port Orleans French Quarter. An early flight allowed us to get to Magic Kingdom in the afternoon. We were able to get in Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, and a few minor attractions. Dinner was at Be Our Guest. The service was fine, but I classify the food as "upscale cafeteria." We were seated in the Beast's room, which I think was a far better experience than if we were in the ballroom. I wouldn't go back, but I don't have a young daughter who is into Belle. I think Be Our Guest is the only place to meet and greet the Beast, and the wait was only about 5 minutes. We booked the dessert party for the Happily Ever After show, and that was a good decision even if we didn't eat many of the sweets. Monday was back to Magic Kingdom and dinner at California Grill. We opted to skip watching the show from the deck because we had seen it the night before and so much of the presentation is now projections onto the castle. We ended up have a good view of the fireworks from the bus stop.
  21. I was just reading the story of Vladimir Bekhterev, a doctor who examined Stalin and then made the mistake of discussing the patient. He was shortly afterwards poisoned while attending the performance of the Bolshoi Ballet.
  22. Another band aid on the lack of school finance reform. So glad we spent all that legislative energy on concealed carry and bathrooms.
  23. I read this in Sam Eagle’s voice.
  24. I hope my fireman friend (who voted for Trump) can see this as an affront to the first responders who died on 9/11.
  25. How about keeping the electoral college, but consolidating less-populous states?
