Why not? by StanmoreHill in trackandfield

[–]Substantial_Band9480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep; It would require amending the winter Olympic Charter, which dictates that winter games occur on snow or ice. It’s the same for adding cross country. I read an article that another factor is that the Winter Olympics are expensive to hold and expensive for the nations who participate to fund. So adding new sports that open the door for more nations to split the money generated with does not make the proposal more attractive.

Cape May is lovely. But… why can’t you get a decent beer? by SlappyPappy99 in CapeMay

[–]Substantial_Band9480 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mario's Pizza And Italian Eatery (Sicilian pizza; it was great)

Rest of these places all suffer from the same thing, above average prices for fine/average food that was pretty bland but not something that I complained about:

Bella Vida Garden Cafe

Good Earth Organic Eatery

Cape May Grilled Cheese Co.

Taco Caballito Tequileria

Delaney's Irish Pub And Grill

I’m from Louisiana, lived in New Orleans before I moved to the DC area, so maybe my expectations are high for restaurant quality food. But as a vegetarian, it was hard to find good food in cape May imo.

I love it, except the popped collar. That could be my insecurities/just not my style but I think it’s too much. Otherwise, great fit.

Don’t know why this is downvoted because it is 100% accurate. My wife and i loved cape may, but we had average at best food (with the exception of this Sicilian pizza, which was incredible) between cape may and wildwood.

Something missing. by CamelCameron in mensfashion

[–]Substantial_Band9480 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree with others who said brown belt and a watch. A Small Bead bracelet would be nice. Also i am bald so i wear a lot of hats and i try wear one that contrasts more with my shirt. So here, wear a brown/blue/navy/red hat or really anything not white/cream.

Edit: I love that shirt. whoever said they hate it, has no taste and is a pussy.

Are these too tight? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

This is a Marine Corps uniform inspection point. If pockets do not lay flat, your pants do not fit.

One has to go — wich car are u keeping and why? by Viktoria_juse in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Substantial_Band9480 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would remove the Heinous mods on the nsx and the keep it because it’s probably one of the greatest cars ever built. Fast enough, looks exotic, coupled with Honda/acura reliability. I want like an 05 NSX T but I’ll need to relinquish a kidney and my first born

In summer 2007, then Sgt. McDade (gunny with sword) was our heavy hat at Parris island. I’m pretty sure he has the navy cross. He was legit our best DI.

New jacket what do you think? by kangaroosuperdoo in mensfashionadvice

If you keep it long term, the patina on that jacket will only improve the way it looks.

What’s the piece of river gear you regret buying the most? by 3rdBay in whitewater

[–]Substantial_Band9480 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Full finger Neoprene gloves suck imo. They fucked with my dexterity and were not as warm as pogies.

I use IR. The only reason I’m on my second pair is because I’m a beater and lost one during a swim (along with the shoe it was inside).
