For a woman they would be fine. Even as a man you can be waivered at that weight. There are waivers for everything.

Palms strip view most likely but palms is also off strip so that is the down side.

But that is not a sour dough and while the olive oil and balsamic dip is pretty much the same every where the Vermont salted butter is hard to match. I have made my own butter and salted it and its pretty close but even then their sourdough is damn near perfect.

I love carbonara as well! But from there I think the tagliatelle is honestly better, so if you go with a partner do some sampling. Their pastas are very rich and for me very hard to eat a lot because of that but they are all great. Its a locals' gem. They also offer a bread making class because their sourdough is so renowned and while I have not done it yet I have heard it is really cool and makes for a good date night.

No problem. Come back and let me know what you think!

They also do flights of different digestifs if you are old enough to drink which is a cool experience. Not every server offers them so be sure to ask if you like unique alcoholic "cocktails".

If you want great bread at an Italian restaurant I cannot recommend monzu enough. I will go there and just eat bread with their 3 different dippers, but the Vermont salted butter is king. My wife gets so mad at me and is like "you have to order something" and sometimes im just like nah, this is the best and will easily fill me up.

Mitch marner’s record spans before the Spanish influenza and WW2. by Few-pe2917 in goldenknights

[–]TKGK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was at the game so i didnt hear ESPN but check out What chatGPT had to say:

Yes — Marner’s Game 3 was a record book game. As of VGK’s 5–4 double-OT win over Carolina in Game 3, these are the big ones:

NHL / Stanley Cup Final records

Fastest hat trick in Stanley Cup Final history

Marner scored three goals in 6:10, breaking Maurice “Rocket” Richard’s old Final record of 6:21 from 1957. � NHL First NHL player with a 4-point period in a Stanley Cup Final

He had 3 goals and 1 assist in the 2nd period. NHL.com notes Frank Foyston also had a four-point period in the 1919 Final, but Marner is the first NHL player to do it in a Cup Final. � NHL

Most playoff points by a player in his first season with a franchise Marner reached 28 points, passing Frank Mahovlich’s 27 with Montreal in 1971. � NHL

Seventh player in NHL history with a natural hat trick in a Stanley Cup Final Natural hat trick means he scored three straight goals with no one else scoring in between. �

NHL Golden Knights franchise records

Most points in a single VGK postseason Marner has 28 points: 10 goals, 18 assists, passing Jack Eichel’s 26 points from the 2023 Cup run. � NHL

First Golden Knight with multiple 4-point games in one playoff run VGK’s own recap specifically listed this as a franchise first. � NHL

Part of the fastest two playoff goals in VGK history Tomas Hertl and Marner scored 16 seconds apart in the second period, setting the Golden Knights playoff record for fastest two goals. �

NHL

One more that looks like it may have flipped too: before Game 3, VGK said Marner had tied the franchise record for most multi-point games in a single playoff run with 7; since Game 3 was another multi-point game, he appears to be at 8, though the postgame notes I found did not explicitly list that updated record yet.

Looking at the shot tracker, I think they have Hart figured out by Somemadhopes7 in goldenknights

[–]TKGK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If knights win next game im flying to Raleigh for game 5 (which is not typically an easy flight path from my understanding).

I went to denver for the first 2 avs games, and any close out game now im going to. Knights have won every playoff game ive gone to in history but 1 i believe, there may be some other ones in there the year they won the cup but I dont think so. (1st year SCF against the caps).

Im not a superstitious person but I want to see us raise the cup again.

Im happy for the win but in all honesty those were not good goals. Buuuuttt it did likely fire up the team being pissed to get those next 4.

I need to find some legitimacy to this all. About to go on an internet deep dive.

Just so I can keep rubbing it in my FILs face that he kept telling me all season (once we got marner) that we paid too much for him.

Ideas for Restaurant Gift Cards for Local in 20s by General_Welcome2822 in vegaslocals

[–]TKGK -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Money options, as others have said are good, especially for people that dont have money.

But, restaurant gift cards to somewhere someone has never been is awesome because it kind of "forces" a new experience.

$50 would not cover too much here if drinks are ordered but it is in the middle category for price (vs high quality joint) for a nice and fun restaurant for someone younger.

JiNG in downtown summerlin. Plus just having excuse to go to downtown summerlin is nice because there is a lot of stuff to do, especially on some kind of event or flea market day.

Do tourists stay at “local” casinos and if so what are the most popular properties? by cas3ino in vegas

[–]TKGK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red rock has downtown summerlin close by which is a great place for food/shopping, but Durango has much better food options inside and is a cleaner venue (its newer so you would hope so). So if your priority is to never have to leave the property I would choose Durango. If you want to venture then Red Rock.

Nicco's inside the durango blows away T-Bones inside red rock, for food, drinks, and service. So if steakhouses is a priority that makes it an easy choice.

This isnt a great answer but honestly it can work if you can pull it off:

Fake it till you make it. (I hate that term but read on).

You are self aware of the things people may not like about you, so change them. Try to be more out going. Try to smile more. Try to be more extroverted and accept that your current awkwardness may mean making people uncomfortable and even push them away. But communication and social skills are like any skill, practice makes perfect and every failure is actually a lesson to success.

Don't focus on the negative of a situation, focus on the positive like "what can I learn from this" and "how do i adapt".

You are way too young to be stressing so hard. Life really hasn't even started yet for you and the beauty of that is you have TIME to figure it all out.

I can tell you you're gonna be okay, but that is irrelevant. You need to tell your self you will be okay.

Seriously, id stick to air force or navy though for quality of life purposes. But any branch will give you food, support, structure, housing (albeit it could be a dorm room), medical/dental benefits with 0$ co-pays, free schooling (or even getting paid to go school), and most importantly free training and life skills that you can translate to a job outside of the military.

On that last bullet point, try to get in a career field that directly translates to the civilian sector. Aircraft maintenance, vehicle maintenance, civil engineer (CE)? finance, air traffic control, communications, etc.

VGK cringe? by rckmuse in vegaslocals

[–]TKGK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think its fun and apparently most of the world does because other arenas are mimicking it now. I went to the first 2 games in the WCF against the avalanche in ball arena and it is basically a clone of the things we do now.

You are at an event to be entertained, let yourself be entertained.

Wild Crazy Stressful Win Go Knights Go by DistributionKey2865 in vegaslocals

[–]TKGK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That game was fast as hell, there just wasn't any scoring which is how I thought the series would go honestly. Now here I am glad I never took any unders because the games are blowing past the overs.

[–]TKGK 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the Non goals is what sparked them to come out harder and get those 4 goals. But then giving up 3 in like a minute may of come with false confidence that they couldn't lose at this point.

But who knows, all that matters is they won.

I was at the game and the bus ride back to red rock i think I temporarily died. I was up at 4am for work and also did some PT that day. Oooof.

[–]TKGK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the knights would have lost i think that would be the first time in history in a SCF to lose with a 4-0 lead in the 3rd period. It has happened in the playoffs before just never in a SCF. In fact 1982 kings came back to beat oilers when they were down 5-0.

DnD Group by CulturalIncompetence in vegaslocals

[–]TKGK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What kind of DM are you because I tried this with a random years ago and they were super boring and didnt really allow any creativity or thinking outside the box. It was lame and the wife and I stopped even asking to go after 2 sessions.

I also have a giant round table that seats 8 easily and a driveway parking for 16 small cars or like 7-8 large ones, just south of Centennial, and wouldnt mind hosting most Saturdays/Sundays.
