  1. illegal to camp on the beach in FLA
  2. ezpz pregnant woman gives birth, when asked who the father is, she just names random R senator. Do both parent have to be citizens? I assume a system exists to determine citizenship, if the mom's paperwork checks out, then ok. If not paternity test to prove citizen father. Also it's going to be a problem for the home birth / dula folks. Perhaps it will just be after the fact paperwork.
  3. only know him from the movie... great sense of humor rip
  4. You sound like the campers that set up their tents close to my Dad's house when the water balloon launchers came out... allegedly
  5. interesting video, cut to the good stuff
  6. pffft This is all you need right here
  7. Robin Trower Worth seeing or nah? This will be at a sit down venue
  8. Don't open the door with too much exuberants
  9. Count of Monte-Cristo ~3 hours of good to quite good Pros Not normal Hollywood commercial garbage Sound design was GREAT Cinematography was beautiful NOT Marvel Cons Subtitles but it didn't move to fast to read and enjoy I thought the ending could have been better, great setup that fizzled a little bit Don't watch the trailer if you are going to see it, or if you don't know the premise of the story
  10. I hate the buckeyes and I REALLY hate Herbstriet announcing he’s such a homer
  11. I went to the concert when they dropped blue sky mining... First song: Look at that nerd NERD! Last song: pretty cool as I notice a bunch of the crowd moving like they've just been tazed
  12. first strike against Canada... Third times the charm, right boys?!
  13. I'll say this... I just went to see Modest Mouse playing Good News for People who Love Bad News I really liked a lot of the songs on that album, but at the concert I was kinda swept up in the crowd's reaction to some of the songs I didn't really like. Evidently I was at some of the wrong parties. Dance Hall?! really this is the song that's getting the girls going? Whole crowd just cheering and singing it was great. Now, only because of that experience, I like those songs. I think the power of songs eliciting memories and experiences makes all the difference. Albums that got played start to finish at parties have the best shot in my book. Given that, gun to my head...
  14. Totally agree As for the station cleanliness, disagree. The French have a culture of "the wild piss" and the Metro is much cleaner than the Subway.
  15. I agree NYC subway is very large, in fact, I pointed that out in my original post as an upside Yes outages do occur in all systems, but notification to riders is a HUGE negative for NYC. There is a reason people say if your car suddenly empties out at a station you better go to. This has happened to me and once on the platform I found out that my local had unexpectedly been turned into an express. The only way I knew was moments before the doors closed there was a mad rush to get off and I went too. Yes Athens system is small, but if the broke ass, bureaucratic Greeks can make it work, why can't we? Syntagma Station stations look more like the MET than the subway. If you love it and think it's world class, then we just disagree.
  16. NO The only thing NYC transit has going for it is size. Trains are slow, loud, infrequent, and dirty. The stations are filthy leaking and trash strewn. PA announcements on the trains are a joke... even when there is a sudden arbitrary change in service. (like JK this train isn't going where we said it would) You only get the peanuts adult voice played through a blasted out 3" speaker. Don't get me wrong, it's great for a US city. But compared to pretty much any modern country it's a dog, just getting by on nostalgia. Athens has a nicer system. 45mins from Eleftherios(Athens International) to central Athens 1 train straight in and it's probably 15 miles. La Guardia to Central Park Bus>Train>Subway Over an hour and 15 mins of that is walking and it's probably less than 9 miles. Newark or JFK....ppppffffft It's a pale shadow of what it could be.
  17. ZTLs man I wish we would put these in all of our city centers... never, never going to happen.
  18. Cameras are cheap and you're talking about basically a long skinny peninsula. At some point the ducking and dodging will cost them more in time and make other modes of transport more desirable.
