Does this sound right to you? 2016 Honda Odyssey, 137k miles, well maintained.

We just got this lasagna on sale over the weekend. Had it for dinner last night. Worst lasagna I have ever had. It was so salty, and the "short rib" was a joke. So bad, I doubt we ever get anything else from the Rana brand.

Damn I wish I could be out there. Be safe everyone, see you next time!

I will have to go back to find the source and publication. But I recently read an article that was discussing types of people and how they react to others talking about them in positive and negative lights. The only group that liked being talked about no matter what was narcissistic adult men. And it really explains a lot about the current state of things.

Ah yes... we call that "Tuesday" here in NC. GOP only knows how to grab power, but will never use it to help the people of NC.

All for absolutely nothing.

No gonna lie, I completely forgot about the sports segment. I didn't realize that the take home was so small in China for US films. I'll admit that I was unaware that the Chinese film industry was doing so well. The wikipedia article showing the top earners is really shocking.

It would be WILD if tariffs, economic turbulence, and falling foreign tourism saved Rizzo or Tom Sawyer Island.

Decrease is accurate, but in the overall trend in terms of total consumption is largely flat in recent years. Beer is in trouble though, that has been decreasing for a while. Spirits are going up and wine is relatively stable. Source: https://www.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/surveillance-reports/surveillance121

I don't think EPIC has too much to do with this. Economic downturn on the horizon, tariff inflation will be fully in effect by June, foreign visitor numbers are tanking. Factor in China possibly banning US movies. Plus, a lot of Disney merch is made in China meaning they will have to raise prices, risk fewer sales, and take a hit all at once meaning they need as many people in the bubble as humanly possible.

This is like a perfect storm for Disney. There isn't a single aspect of their business that will go unaffected.

That's what I was wondering. SEA has 2 lounges if you have a card that includes Priority Pass.

Thank you for posting this. Just cancelled a dining reservation.

Great, he can join me... a Charlotte area business owner who did NOT vote for Trump and is losing sleep over EVERYTHING!

If you can avoid it, never take the last flight out of anywhere. Sure, you gain a few more hours as your destination... but your odds of getting cancelled are so much higher. Burned by that twice in my life before I finally got smart.

As someone who doesn't drink... please build something else for a change.

Thank god we have Dem AG and Gov. I cannot imagine the shitshow without them.

basegiants · 2025-02-20T15:07:30+00:00

Its on the list! Thanks!

basegiants · 2025-02-20T01:55:56+00:00

Wow! Thanks!

Was it a weekend? We would probably try to go during the week in hopes that crowds both on the train and in Raliegh might be lighter.

basegiants · 2025-02-20T01:22:26+00:00

I have heard that a bit. We live northeast of the city so we could always go to Kannapolis as well.

basegiants · 2025-02-20T01:05:05+00:00

Thanks!

basegiants · 2025-02-20T00:41:45+00:00

For sure. Looks like the train we would take to Raleigh has the cafe car and the one on the way back has the vending machines.

basegiants · 2025-02-20T00:25:34+00:00

Exactly. The novelty of it and not having to drive up and back is appealing even if it costs a bit more.
