I think those of us who have spent some time outside the region kind of understand that. In my 20 some years living in the Detroit region the biggest complaint has come from tourists, students and business people about the difficulty and expense of traveling from DTW. DTW is probably one of the better "major" hubs to fly thru. However try to get from the airport to your destination. Cab fare is $50 to downtown, $35+ to Dearborn, $70+ to Novi, about $60 to Ann Arbor. There are a couple shuttles but unless you're lucky enough to time your flight right expect at least an hour hanging out in a baggage area that might or might not have access to coffee. I haven't tried Amtrak to DC yet, I hate driving 95 anywhere from Fredericksburg north. edit, BTW the Q Line is a joke. The idea of putting the "rails" on the side of the road and "allowing" parking to screw everything up defeats the entire purpose. They really should have done what they did in Cleveland. A dedicated bus line down the middle of road with barriers to keep other vehicles out.

I would be very much in support of Musk leading a one man mission to Mars.

For everything there is a season. Her's was a very long one

The RW's amnesia services again, forgetting about UVa where the murderer was a student.

Seems appropriate for the playoffs....

Never mind, misread the script

Watch Phil block the FG

Since about 90% of the current channel lineup on cable is basically crap the business plan (as well as the long standing cable monopoly) seems to be working for some. The fact that I need to pay approx $150 a month for enough bandwidth for decent internet service and have to put up with their basic service selections is ridiculous.

The railroad should be forced to pay for every home affected, along with relocation fees. That would still be less than what they are paying for their corporate offices in Georgia. Not to mention their lobbying contributions the last 20 plus years. I've hated them since they slinked out of Roanoke, Va 50 plus years ago.

I agree totally. Why should I who live approx 2 1/2 - 4 hours from teams I don't care about have to put up with the whims of one team (which owns 2/3 of the broadcast network). Especially since the games are carried over a monopoly owned cable/internet system charging exorbitant rates.

BTW, was reading about the description of the Chinese balloons. A lot of antenna rays looking for signals, powered by solar panels. I immediately thought of the stories about FCC vans driving thru neighborhoods back in the day looking for pirate radio stations, or 12 year old boys (mostly) who had their own radio setup (enhanced from a store bought kit). The fact that once the balloon was spotted and we tracked them using our own spy planes probably gave us more knowledge than shooting it down in the middle of Nowhere, MT

If they actual read the history instead of believing the myths.

I don't how drastically things have changed in recent years. But entities like Fox and CNN are basically cable as opposed to stations that air programs from say CBS, NBC, Fox (local stations, the Simpson, NFL games) over the air. FCC regs at one time regulated what they considered "offensive" content like nudity and profane language. Cable isn't covered legally if I remember correctly. Going back to the dark ages, Morning Zoos walked a finer line than say shows on satellite stations like XM and Sirius.

Kind of a big thing around here. Colonial Williamsburg will be moving the Bray School building from near the William and Mary campus to a prominent location within the Historic area. The Bray School is the oldest building set up to educate Black children in the 1760. The school taught both free and enslaved blacks. https://www.colonialwilliamsburg.org/learn/research-and-education/architectural-research/williamsburg-bray-school-initiative/ They are physically moving the building back to near its original spot and will hold a ceremony tomorrow afternoon. Among the dignitaries speaking will be the Governor. The very same Governor who ran a major part of his campaign speaking out against CRT. Should be interesting. I hope he wears an appropriate vest for the event.

I learned a new term today...STROAD. They're just about everywhere.

I will say she is correct about one thing. The political dividing line in the US is a choice between normal and crazy.

Did anybody actually watch Sarah Huckabee's "rebuttal" last night? From what I read it seemed like a Festivus like airing of grievances comparable only to Bobby Jindal's and Marco Rubio's oratory. Not to mention calling out the entire party by saying they need younger and more hip leadership. (I guess that makes her old boss happy) Does anyone vet these speeches? Or is it open mike night at the QOP Improv Club?
