  1. I understand that the phrase Black Lives Matter are actually a cabal of socialist crooks. So there is that…if we could just legislate phrases.
  2. the local place or the national chain are going to put out some bad pies from time to time. if the guy cooking it is a jerk and has been baking himself and doesn't give a damn. Nothing is more crushingly disappointing from a food perspective than poor pie.
  3. I enjoy some Hungry Howies if its on offer. Papa Johns used to advertise without shame "made with sauce fresh out of the can" which clearly also included them adding Subway bread levels of additional glucose and fructose.
  4. Semi-related: I hear some disregard Dominos but their artisan black box pies are pretty darn good. If only Tom Monohan hadn't destroyed the Detroit Tigers, Dave Brandon hadn't destroyed the Michigan Wolverines and Toys R Us.
  5. Without diverging too far into the swamp of the pizza wars. I have not had the LC or Pizza Hut Detroit Style deep dish yet. Does that come anywhere close to the Buddy's/Buchemis level? Is it sending the wrong message to the kids? I also did not grow up with that as my model for pizza but only started to have it when visiting Michigan in the past 20 years. My model was Primo's and other round NY style which are not classic NY style now that I compare as a grown up. The perfected pizza of my youth was one that had some bite to the sauce and pepperoni. The sort of thing that a Papa Johns loses with their hate crime of a pizza intended for children and sororities.
  6. I drove all over the United States, central Europe and elsewhere in APCs, jeeps, trucks, Hummers, and have had my fill of the road boats. I'm happy to be in something lower and more refined.
  7. I've done the DC to Detroit drive in my family truckster (minivan and SUVs) and it sucks. I do it in my current car and its not a problem at all. The value of having a good car that handles the road seems to have been lost on the consumer who loves the SUV.
  8. well now Very cool if true
  9. These guys are not good
  10. So, instead of paying for all 162 games with your MLB subscription and your Directv. You have to pay for another service to watch a weekend game. FUCK ROB MANFRED!
  11. is ever thus. It appears that the street fighting favors Ukraine but the Russians have ways of making streets into rubble.
  12. Oh, we already played like shit in New York Shitty today?
  13. When Speaker MTG impeaches President Biden and Manchin and Sinema are part of the 60 voting to remove: —President Harris chooses who for VP? — How long does she have before all that happens to her after the revocation of the 19th Amendment and her Administration is ruled unconstitutional on the grounds of her gender? Which Oddly does not impact MTG because it is revealed that the Supreme court rules she is an honorary male because she supports gun rights.
  14. I wish the Volt were still on the market. My friend has one. Its a good size for passengers (could be a tad bigger), but has very good power and range. The gas engine gets him across country when necessary and he mostly uses the battery when he commutes.
  15. I have a friend who works for VW here in northern Virginia. He's really opposed to EVs. I think he's really into the emotions of the internal combustion engine. I asked him about the plan for the market to be dominated by EVs and he said: plans can change. I don't know how many engineers and designers who work in the Detroit Metro, Tokyo, Seoul, Munich, etc. might share those opinions but it is a bit dispiriting. When I bought my last vehicle it was the lack of available options and the range consideration that kept me from committing. I ended up with a car that made me happy 5 days a week and miserable when it came the day to fill the tank.
  16. Yeah, this is the sort of game that the commissioner wanted
  17. Baez cost a lot of money for this level of production.
  18. Looks on the broadcast like we are a small town mouse being played with by the big city cat
  19. this was worth anything i gave them
  20. Where is the state of Chicago on this chart?
  21. No AR-15 has ever been marketed for self-defense purposes. Its a fact. You can only use them to shoot animals and pieces of paper and some lighter cardboard.
  22. They don't want to stop it. The Steve Bannon types are trying to cause chaos in pursuit of Leninist objectives of gaining power. People who follow along nodding as all their racial antagonisms are pushed (e.g., the people who think Kyle Rittenhouse should be made a congressman) are merely enabling these would be autocrats.
  23. Flint man arrested at U.S. Capitol with fake badge, high-capacity magazines (detroitnews.com) Seems like he was just trying to express his freedom
