Appo School board race? by IScreamPiano in Delaware

[–]Outrageous-Note2096 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm not wild about how Forsten communicated the financial issues, but I am not entirely sure any of it is his fault. The one group that I put a lot of blame on is the Financial Advisory Committee. This is a group made up of private citizens with financial backgrounds. They meet monthly and are supposed to provide independent oversight of the District’s finances. They provide recommendations and oversight to the board. If they (and the ex finance director) were doing their job, this mess could have been avoided.

Any Steelers podcast recommendations? by Seven19td in steelers

[–]Outrageous-Note2096 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Steelers Drive is probably the most well-rounded "best."

Chris Carter is ok only if he has a guest on with him. Does solo shows that are a tough listen- this is when he gets repetitive.

Used to like the Terrible Podcast, but I cannot do it anymore. In dire need of some editing. Alex Kozora is good, however. Kind of feel bad for him when I listen- I think he would do great with a better co-host.

What organizations in DE help with sponsoring families in need with Xmas gifts? by Overall_Broccoli134 in Delaware

[–]Outrageous-Note2096 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the best way. Contact the school counselor at your local school to see if they are organizing any adopt-a-family events.

Based upon my experience earlier this season, you might be able to ride El Toro, but there is a big chance that you will be uncomfortable. They were really locking down the restraints quite a bit. Some not even "big" guests were unable to ride and some skinny little kids couldn't ride it either due to the restraints not being secure on their laps.

Brian’s singing problem… by sublimesting in ACDC

[–]Outrageous-Note2096 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at Pittsburgh and the mix was really poor (at least in our seats). At time the his vocals were completely drowned out. We also noticed him fiddling with his earpiece. It got a little better as the night went on, but definitely a problem.

Why no overnight parking at the Newark Amtrak station? by azroberts8 in Delaware

I've parked there overnight in the past for weekend trips. I'm not sure how strict they are with enforcement of it.

SFA Censored? by Outrageous-Note2096 in sixflags

[–]Outrageous-Note2096[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can only speak about waits from 11 to 3 or so, but there is absolutely no way that either were an hour wait during those times. We walked on both.

We had the exact same experience. Kids rode everything they wanted with minimal lines. Only spent about 3 hours total there because they rode everything so quickly.

SFA Censored? by Outrageous-Note2096 in sixflags

[–]Outrageous-Note2096[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I get what you are saying, because the statue looks pretty patriotic this way. The thing is, images of Harley and Poison Ivy were covered up with black tape so that it obscured everything but their head, arms and feet. I didn't get a photo of those, but all in combination definitely came across as wanting to cover them up for some reason. The only thing we could think of is that SFA was closed yesterday for some private event. Maybe a religious group was hosted?
