how much of it is also due to migration and surburan and exurban expansion? What used to be farmland is now subdivision after subdivisions of new housing. The people who lived in the cities in 1940 now live in what was "the boonies".

that's true. I am not sure when the change happened but I know in the FSD days the Pistons produced their own games. They bought the time and kept the revenue, it was like an infomercial.

Yes, I saw that. Very cool

A lot of "republicans" think its the smarter party... big business, stocks, money, etc. So they want to identify with that more than identifying with "the gays" and "poor people". Even though they most likely are financially better off with D policies. They are incapable of reconciling that.

They should do what the Pistons used to do in the 80's and early 90's for games on Channel 50, do a simulcast where Blaha's radio feed is used on TV. It's probably one of those weird things where even though we are technically so much more advanced now, something prevents it.

I even if he has national aspirations and got one of the top jobs available does that mean he wouldn’t still do Tigers games? Johnny Miller had the top job at ESPN but still did Orioles and Giants games. He seems pretty active now but I assume a steady gig with one team is still an option he likes or else he’d just keep doing what he is doing now. Is a better national gig going to occupy him more than it is now?

I get it but those people aren’t seeing this language anyway. There’s a desire to condemn it but pundits and nerds like us on message boards have been doing that since 2015. All we are doing is grading an exam that doesn’t count for any transcript or official record.

That’s enforced by voters though. Nobody can or will hold him accountable for saying this.

Unless it changes a vote what does it matter? This doesn’t do anything to change a potential outcome of an election. It’s further confirmation from what we have all known He’s said crazy things his whole life and it didn’t matter.

Politically Hillary’s was worse because it confirmed her potential voters skepticism towards her and I do think people bailed. “See… they think are all low class bums.” It was anti populist. It helped create the Obama/Trump voter. Which was a thing. academically Trumps was worse. But political is what matters. An educated and well thought out vote based on issues and studying is cancelled by someone who “aint voting for no bitch because they they think they are better than us”

These grounds are 12 but the hot and neutrals in the box are 14. It’s a 15 amp circuit. This has me motivated to clean up some other things now.

That took less than an hour. First time that’s ever happened with a home project I have never done before. one question that I didn’t need but it came up. I needed an extra neutral wire to connect the new plug to the other neutrals in the box. I got a pack of 10 ground wires with the green screws and used that to ground the outlet into the box. I wondered if I could have also used one of those as my neutral from the silver screw on the outlet to the other neutrals, as long as I labeled or marked it. Copper is copper in my mind. I didn’t do it because I remembered someone had left some extra wire that I had in my junk box of scrap. My dad’s mantra… never throw anything away and once or twice a year just go look at it all so you refresh your memory on where everything is at and what’s there.

I don’t think closer is ever settled except for a couple of teams, ever, at one time.

I keep seeing that tweet or whatever it is and am wondering what the big deal is. I mean yeah it’s bad. But it’s nothing new for him. Nobody is seeing that and changing an intention to vote or not vote for him. It doesn’t move any needles.

Thanks. Yeah that’s what I was getting at. Create a jumper on the 3 neutrals back to the new plug. It will be a GFCI since my house is old and there’s no ground wires. Still unsure on the fixture but I want to replace the box just to give me options. I’ve been watching a lot of videos.

I have a junction box in the basement that was set up for a shop light, controlled by a wall switch. The light I want to replace it with requires a plug. I need to change the box because the current one is too small. the wiring situation: it has the line coming in and it feeds two others. So there’s 3 neutrals together, 3 hot twisted together, and the red from the wall switch. when I put them all back in the new box and put in my plug, controlled by the switch, do I just take one of the existing neutrals for my new outlet or should I add a pigtail to the outlet?

Fans expect players to use their financial comfort and stability to do things in the fans and organizations best interest instead of the players best interest.

Dirks was so good I thought he was a professional from another team who had an opening to fill in. He sounds like he’s been doing it for years. Just the right touch of insight that a player can bring without going overboard.

I wouldn't either. But his accumulated wealth has also given him the ability to make the best choice as he sees fit for himself, whatever that may be. I am glad he opted out and am glad it appears there's no interest in having him come back. Let him be someone else's problem.

that's easy for you to say about someone else's situation. Maybe his kids have friends they don't want to leave. Maybe his wife has friends. There's so many things within a family that can come up where a sudden move or absence can be traumatic. We simply don't know.

FYI he has cerebral palsy

Regarding Christie, I remember the flack he took in 2012 when a Hurricane hit New Jersey. It was like the week before the election or something and "He's out there hobnobbing with Barrack Obama". I'm not saying that to change any minds and I know the other crap he did as Governor. I just don't think he's going to destroy democracy or severely curtail some of our rights. That's a low bar I know but given today's GOP the minimum baseline is critical.
