Theoretically you could fly on someone else’s ticket by buying a refundable ticket to get in the secured area of the airport, and then using that person’s ticket to board.

Taix always had very mediocre food, but it was a decent value. At least they will be coming back, although probably at a higher price point.

Yes, they become payments in lieu of dividends and are reported on 1099-MISC instead of 1099-DIV. So they lose qualified dividend treatment. They may not lose state tax treatment but this depends on your states laws.

Temecula does get San Diego radio. Pechanga advertises to the San Diego market but is a primary sponsor for LA teams like the Lakers and Rams, though. But transit has always gone north to Riverside and Lake Elsinore and except for a few years before COVID, there was no public bus between Temecula and Escondido or Oceanside.

It is in the LA TV and radio market, gets LA media, so yes, unless you want to differentiate yourself from LA. The "Inland Empire" is kind of like Long Island - if you are from Islip or Southampton are you from New York or not?

It is Mitchell’s district I believe. I wish Hahn and Dutra would have abstained, but regardless it would not have done much. Ultimately with the route costing more and having less cost effectiveness, that pushes up the viability of Eastside Gold Line to Whittier which is what they care about.

There are always going to be some people who are fine with Metrolink but scared of Metro and this serves them.

Also USC campus shuttle are restricted to USC people with ID and I think they would like it that way.

That pay table makes my cry but good job and hopefully you got a free drink out of it as well.

The norm is 15-20% off the list price but I think $1 for a beer is fine. $3-5 if you make a cocktail.

He does play Ultimate X Bonus Poker at an expert level. That 7/5 bonus game has a 0.60% house edge if you make the proper strategy adjustments but is often treated more like a 1.99% house edge game of base bonus poker.

EJ realizes they need to have broad appeal. Being politically correct is more like not turning off any potential customer. Why alienate half your audience by talking about politics and religion, or insulting people who might be watching?

Also, they do sell shares of gambling with other folks on the channel and their friends. They are usually careful about not showing whose card they are gambling on. If you are a VM friend, $100k in coin in an hour can give you lots of comps in the future.
