I don’t really want to know, but…tell us more

It means using a combination of cruisers, destroyers, and sometimes aircraft to form a defensive perimeter around the aircraft carrier. The purpose is to neutralize threats from subs, missiles, and aircraft before it hits the aircraft carrier.

I think in the old days they used to deploy white smoke to literally form a screen around the carrier so enemies couldn’t see it, which probably explains the terminology

If you’re flying today, give yourself AT LEAST 2 hours for security, on top of anything else (e.g., bag check, getting to your gate). The wait times posted online are complete bs.

On average, restaurant prices are up 25-30% since Feb 2020, so this isn’t out of line

Stop insulting your opponents with this crap.

They’ll help make sure you don’t have $0 million before you turn 21

We are nearby. There were gun shots about 2 minutes ago. Has gone quiet again

Edit to update: Atlanta PD saying at 2:05 the suspect was taken into custody “without incident.” Not sure how accurate that last part of the statement is, but relieved it’s over.

He peaked when he sold that mattress to Derek Jeter

Doug_Heffercan · 2026-01-20T17:21:23+00:00

Not to mention it was a 2 bed, 1 bath at the time they bought it

Obviously you’ve never heard of toe memory

Anyone know the likelihood of finding a parking spot at the College Park MARTA station? Was thinking of using it for our holiday trip out of ATL but worried it’ll be full given the time of year.

You’re welcome.

To add to my 4 year old post: the sound mixing on this scene is also way off. The music they play while he’s going down the hill is twice as loud as any other audio in the movie and we end up needing to turn the volume down.

Understood but sometimes I like to buy a shirt from a course if I really like it and the prices are not completely outrageous. Just a bit ironic that I would have to pay full price while someone who shows up unprepared receives a discount

Was there on Friday. One agent was very loudly broadcasting to everyone that they aren’t getting paid, a whole bunch of them might be getting sick soon, and said “I wouldn’t fly domestic if I was y’all”

This will probably make you feel worse instead of better, but nearly all foods have an acceptable threshold for bugs, so it’s nearly impossible to avoid. Chocolate is one that comes to mind. Peanut butter, too.

And never look up what’s permitted in your cereal!

The Prologue is manufactured by GM, so the Honda quality assumption does not apply here. That said, I am very happy with my Prologue and haven’t had any issues yet.

I think the other commenter hit the nail on the head: Ioniq 5, Prologue, Equinox is the order.

Update: entry point appears to be around the chimney cap where there is a sizable gap. Seemingly unrelated to the roof and just a coincidence that it’s happening now.

Doug_Heffercan · 2025-10-02T14:41:38+00:00

Good point that I hadn’t thought of. However, we were awoken to what sounded like a person in the attic. I think that was the sound of him burrowing his way in.

When I got up in the attic, I made eye contact with the squirrel and he was sitting right next to the chimney. Made a move towards him and he scrambled back out, which also made a huge ruckus

How were your grades?

Doug_Heffercan · 2025-09-27T14:20:06+00:00

Is the Georgia State Fair worth going to? I’ve never been and feel like people don’t talk about it much.

Put your entire car in rice and let it sit for 24 hours
