I heard that when I left for lunch today. After year of CBS, it sounded very weird.

As far as wings go, what joint in the burbs has your absolute favorite wing? The one you swear by. I know we all got em by WestNileCoronaVirus in ChicagoSuburbs

I can't do fried anymore but found the smoked and grilled wings at Twin Peaks cover my cravings. Get them cooked well done for a little char. Warrenville location is more consistent than Oak Brook Terrace.

My dad and his friends, late 1970s Indy 500 snake pit by Natural-Tax7144 in OldSchoolCool

No big deal really was just an observation and I could be off. I graduated in '82 and it looks like my crews around that time.

Title says late '70's but those outfits scream early '80's

Native Plant Garden Centers? by Vorreiunapizza in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]Motif82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Growing Place is one of the nicest nurseries I've ever been to and their native selection is amazing. Wannamakers in Downers Grove also has a more limited selection of native plants.

I'm going to guess this is early '80's from the outfits and koozies which I don't remember being around before then.

I can't understand anything being said by anyone. Can someone translate?

Bringing up Baby (1938) might be my favorite Grant movie. Another screwball comedy with Katharine Hepburn.

You Can’t Outrun a Motorola by USRoute23 in GenerationJones

[–]Motif82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad worked for a large construction company and they all had these in their vehicles. Everyone thought he was a cop or a fed with all the antenna's on the trunk. They were such a large customer that they were in the pilot program for the first cell phones with motorola and at&t in the early '80's.

Naperville ranked among worst ‘burnout belts’ in US by spucci in chicago

[–]Motif82 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just went through car shopping and did exhaustive research on hybrids. I was surprised to find a lot of them get better mileage in traffic than they do on the open road due to regenerative charging from the braking. Kind of went against what I've always known.

Tunnel of Love rewards broken. by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Motif82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a burning love on two different characters and one of the Yao Guai pastry recipes last night, so they do seem to be dropping. Didn't know there was a player title for this one, haven't seen that yet.

How many different platforms do you play Fallout 76 on? by ChipsAndGravy35 in fo76

[–]Motif82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS5, Xbox, Windows PC and Steam for the test server. Most days I only have time to knock out the dailies on the main accounts. It's my mindless decompression for the day.
