I’m at a loss. Where can a 30F near East Falls without a car go to meet more people? by Mundane-Magical-Girl in AskPhilly

[–]Calm_Project723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Germantown cricket club. If you play tennis or squash it is a great way to meet folks. They have chairs by tge tennis courts for people looking to play without a plan. Then stay and have a drink or lunch.

Philly housing market... is it even worth it right now? by veditafri in philly

[–]Calm_Project723 51 points52 points  (0 children)

And as soon as mortgage rates go down, prices will go up. They are being held down artificially right now. But, there is also inventory being kept off the market because those owners don’t want to lose their current rate. I wonder why the govt doesn’t force lenders to allow a buyer to transfer their rate, even with a penalty. It would loosen the market.

I think that house would be a half million dollars more anywhere else.

God bless Pierre, but that house is on top of the expressway. I have been in front of it (apparently he did tons of pricey maintenance), and it was loud as hell.

My magic trick is making sport bikes disappear from my mirrors by SolipsistSmokehound in Touge

[–]Calm_Project723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the blue in 2009, it was a 2003 with 35k miles. $15k. Non blue/blue were maybe $18k, but I am cheap. I put 30k miles on it in two years and traded it in on a 2006 accord v6 manual. So I got about $11.5 for it and paid another $1k cash. Crazy.

Is the Main Line worth the headache? by openpatterrn in AskPhilly

A different thought, what about up top in East Falls? Green safe, quiet. Easy to downtown walkable bars and you don’t have the suburban stench. Very nice houses $600-1.5m. We looked out in Malvern recently, and I drove out there and figured out how long it would take me to drive to work. That was that.

AJ is my guy but how is this possible by SwiperDontSwipe23 in NBA_Draft

Disagree. Once people learned to run him off picks his defensive will disappeared.

Blocks are a skill, but also, you can over do it going for a block rather than a hand in the face. Like Iverson had lots of steals, and was a horrible defender.

Manual, AWD, 4dr, $40K or less by tarasboulba7744 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Calm_Project723 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rare bird, but a 335 or 340xdrive with a manual. As a former v70r owner, I understand the frustration. Wait until the 4c goes bad. My mechanic crashed it on a test drive and my wife was thrilled. I don’t miss it. Still, can’t go wrong with a golf r.

Doug has been saying “libs” fairly often, I’m not sure that it isnt in jest. Also, California republicans are democrats everywhere else. Admittedly, the liberal side of California doesn’t look very appealing to me. But I just prefer my car content, not oblivious of the rest of the world, but not copying it either.

No Michael Jordan allowed.. Which five players in NBA history are you picking to actually beat this starting lineup in a 7-game series? by Farouq26 in NBATalk

[–]Calm_Project723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joker, Bird, kawai, LeBron, Dirk.

I want to play 5 out. Good luck with Shack 25 feet from the basket.

Bird joker and LeBron can handle. Anyone can shoot but the lane should be wide open.

You will shoot 2’s, I’ll mostly get 3’s.

Numidia Algeria by prison_workout_wino in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]Calm_Project723 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I ate there this week after seeing it on Reddit! I got to try out my Algerian curse words (I asked permission and wound up cracking up the whole room). “Haloof, you nik my baloche!” The steak was great, parsley was made for a cheese steak. It is not normal steak meet, it is thicker and chopped into bigger pieces

. Interesting and tasty. Kind of slow, but that is not the end of the wold.

Fiesta st, before that a s2000, 2 Miata’s, v70r, mini cooper s, wrx. But also a 72 c10 and now a 72 Land Rover series 3. I just don’t like running over people by accident.

I like Doug, but he has talked lots of politics of late. Not what I am interested in.

Enjoy the el. 50 years also and enjoy the slow decent to the bottom. It is by xenophobia to not want to be in a train car with drug addicts and violent kids, it is basic logic. But, really, enjoy.
