  1. Buddy's is legit great. My kids who grew up in Virginia really love our Buddy's visits when we hit the Detroitoplex. The ABC thing is still available. It's a thing from the days of Cantonese diaspora restaurants who had to accommodate midwestern tastes... newly immigrant Chinese places around Northern Virginia cannot fathom the concept of large chunks of battered boneless chicken breast on a bed of rice and lettuce with some goopy sauce.
  2. At least some good things are happening. Germany just survived a coup attempt. Nobody is talking about that anymore in this country.
  3. Ask him what weird food -- that the average person would be disgusted with -- did he grew addicted to in BC? Or ask him what that is for Michigan. I think the weird idiosyncratic stuff is getting harder and harder to identify. Somewhat related, I'm almost dismayed to see the "Detroit-style" pizza being lauded all over the place when it wasn't really what I grew up eating in Livonia. But the thing I get when I go back to Michigan, Almond Boneless Chicken is non-existent anywhere outside the bubble of the Detroit suburbs. When I introduced this "wonder dish" to my buddy from upstate NY he was [shrugs] "what the hell is the big deal?"
  4. https://twitter.com/TristanSnell/status/1617877901113978880?s=20 This story. :--( I think he's talking or he wouldn't be out on bond. Unless the judge is also a scumbag.
  5. Not me.
  6. Nothing explains fighting tooth and nail to prevent document return when the national archives KNEW what was missing.
  7. Trump narrative hardest hit
  8. Somebody wants this story to die.
  9. ahh...I caught the end and didn't see it. Maybe Lawrence O will cover it.
  10. What the heck is up with CNN? I realize some Trump fan bought into them and rearranged their editorial policies to be more fair to Orange assholes. This story isn't even a blip on their radar. edit: searched and found on the website https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/23/politics/fbi-official-charles-mcgonigal/index.html
  11. Drudge finally has the story on the front page. Still does not appear on CNN front page. I won't even bother with FNC
  12. we will be shadow boxing all over on this stuff
  13. He’s gonna be dead or in Russia within the week
  14. A weather story higher on the agenda. Than proof of a link between the Trump campaign and Russian Intelligence Services and the FBI
  15. This shatteringly huge story is not even the 4th story on ABC News broadcast. WTF!!!?
  16. Not useful if you are a mouthpiece for the gun companies who pay you more than your constituents.
  17. This is only notable because in this situation the system sort of worked. Hassan Yehia Chokr arraigned for anti-Semitic attack charges (freep.com)
  18. Listening to Amb Bill Taylor (of the basso profundo voice) this morning. He says that Ukraine will have what they need to expel Russia from its territory this Spring if the latest pledges are carried out. I hope somewhere in Ukraine or in western Europe our trainers are working up battalion tactical groups with simulated tanks. You can't just slap together units without that kind of training in command and control, tactics, and the basics of operating armored vehicles in the field.
  19. In my version Maria Pappas and Gina Scala are played by Bjork and Shakira.
  20. I'd like to see a hip hop musical of the Guns of Navarone to see how they would do this scene Or this
  21. Seriously, they should have had her act in a trench. She's a very pretty lady but she's a skyscraper.
