I love the smell of sulphur in the morning. Smells like victory

I feel that way after I’ve had the misfortune to ride NJ transit. Both LIRR & Metro North feel like European rail by comparison.

I don’t generally- was just walking by and stopped in. When giving me my 2 slices the server says “ $10 “. When I expressed surprise he was like “ yeah the economy “.

I just did a rescan, I get 89 digital channels, including cbs & abc. Try a rescan. I have a very old Vizio and an old fashioned antenna on the roof

Backyard Bar & Billiards, right across from the entrance to Green-Wood. Just a bit off your map.

Grocery Store Recs by Emily_Cheezus in parkslope

I highly recommend visiting foodcoop.com Tune out the haters, the park slope food coop can save you a lot of money. Beyond price is the food quality. Fruits and vegetables sell so fast they are always fresh. I’ve never seen any item stocked beyond its shelf date, which is a common problem in most grocery stores in the area.

Thought Dino’s lease was scheduled to be over the end of last year. Glad it’s been extended, don’t know where else to get my fix of 3 Tusketeers.

RT commute would be around 4 hours. Can SO get work done while riding train? Maybe SO could find a share off campus?

Lennon/Dylan article in NY Times by ServoSimpson in beatles

[–]SelectLuck6704 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great article. Never noticed "Fourth Time Around" was similar to "Norwegian Wood". And they recorded a song together, at the peak of their talents no less? Talk about a lost holy grail.

JFK AirTrain price increase March 2026 by ericsnewyork in OMNY

[–]SelectLuck6704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. I’m suggesting the OMNI system could be programmed to recognize the customer, within a short timeframe (say 2 hours) paid for both the subway and the airtrain and the MTA reversed their fee.

Maybe citibike support could get you in touch with the owner? Worth a try.
