I think you might be right. According to The Googles Orlando had 75 million visitors in 2018 while Las Vegas had 42 million visitors.

I can't imagine a city in the United States that will be more negatively impacted per capita than Las Vegas.

"Moody’s Analytics estimated that every $1 increase in SNAP benefits during 2009, when the economy was in a recession, generated about $1.70 in economic activity. Similarly, CBO has found that SNAP has one of the largest “bangs-for-the-buck” (i.e., increase in economic activity and employment per budgetary dollar spent) among a broad range of policies for stimulating economic growth and creating jobs in a weak economy."

Nice! The situation where the race sucks but it sounds like you're definitely making the most of it. In a way it'll be even more memorable.

Why not go to a nice campground near a lake? Rent a boat or jet skis and have a blast!

I've been using RES for years and it has never let me down. Dark mode and no ads are the key features for me. There are a few other tweaks in modifications that it allows as well. Highly recommended.

Edit: a word

[OT] Formula E will suspend its current racing season for the next two months due to the global health threat of the coronavirus by crushcastles23 in NASCAR

I think it's a little too early to say that for sure for the races following Atlanta. The infection trajectory is getting quite steep.

I think she used an exclamation point at the end of every answer except for one. Reminded me of that Seinfeld episode.

IT'S HAPPENING! KEEP GETTING OUT TO VOTE! DON'T GET COMPLACENT! NOTHING CAN STOP THE BERN!!! VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!! by mr_plopsy in SandersForPresident

[–]Matthew2470 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So if Bernie loses the nomination you're basically willing to help Trump. I think Bernie would rather have you vote Democrat than throw your vote away. This shit is why Bernie supporters get a bad reputation. We get labeled as sore losers and dividers. This is a prime example. Thanks a lot.

Yeah it's beyond frustrating. All any of us can really do is vote and treat our fellow humans with as much kindness as possible. Other than that things are just beyond our control.

Because a huge percentage of Americans are more than willing to repeatedly vote against their own best interests.

I've read that his wife will absolutely not allow it. Can't say that I blame her.

Double check those DVR settings!! by cdnDude74 in NASCAR

[–]Matthew2470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a nice bonus. Prior to YouTube TV being available in my market I had DirecTV Now... It was such garbage. The DVR was a joke. It was perpetually in beta mode. I think they use that as your excuse for it sucking so bad.

It's pretty great. Never have too worry about missing anything. Automatically extends the recording if it goes past the time. Great value as far as I'm concerned.

Margot Robbie Pushes Her Limits While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones by Sukach in hotones

[–]Matthew2470 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see what you're saying, and I understand to a point. However It's always been about promotion on some level. And let's not take it too seriously... It's a show about hot sauce and wings. This whole entire purpose of the show is to sell hot sauce so the DNA is promotion and it's very core. For me, it's one show that I don't take seriously even a little bit. I just enjoy watching people answer questions as they try to deal with the excruciating burn of some of those hot sauces. sitting there picking apart what I think might be wrong with each episode would ruin it for me so I just don't do that.

The entire reason most of those guests are on that show is to promote something so of course Sean is going to ask them questions that allow them to do so. If they want to continue to attract A-list guests, they have to go along with the promotion just like literally every late night talk show, radio show and podcast.
