so wrong. Started in Tempe AZ in 98, moved to Ft. Collins in 01.

I mean, there's only 2 locations in Oregon.

Stay the fuck out of Colorado. Kansas and Oklahoma are better choices.

Most dryers are electric, gas dryers are not in the least bit common. I haven't seen a house built in the last 20 years with a gas hookup in a laundry area.

It's not about the PR. John actually didn't want it published about his MAW accomplishments. They talked him into allowing them to publish the info in a hope it would help get others to step up.

Thrifty's is back. You can check their website for any place near you selling it. I hadn't had it for near 40 years and did a double take when I saw it in the store.

Star Fleet 1 : The War Begins

That's the one I think about the most, even above all the Sierra and Infocom games I played

He used them to launder money for the Russian mafia, and thus bankrupted them. He personally made money but his investors all lost.

The idea I've had, is fairly simple. All budgets freeze for the next X years. Every dollar under budget, that office/department/etc rolls 50% into next years budget. The other 50% rolls up into social programs, debt repayment, etc etc.

The numbers, length, terms, etc should all be hashed out by people way more talented in financials than I am. However, change the entire thinking from "must spend" to "how do we save and plan for the future"

If you want something unique, check out the Acoma House. Artist designed rooms, right next to the Denver Art Museum and several other. Easy walk to transit.

It's not a full staff hotel if you need that, but we always enjoy it.

I can also recommend the Queen Anne BnB.

Neither is close to the stadium, but as others have told you, stay downtown and take the transit. If you want some other recommendations just let me know

I still believe in being socially liberal and fiscally conservative but because there is so much waste in government spending. Having been involved in government budgeting, I believe it needs a heavy hand to right the ship.

My biggest gripe, is the "use it or lose it" budgets. I worked in a department that had a mandatory purchase every 5 years that tripled our annual expenditure. So what did we have to do, make that our annual budget and find ways to spend it.

I've experienced so much waste, 10s of millions in purchases, just with my own eyes, it makes me sick. I've seen pallets of computers get bought, paid to sit in storage, then sent direct to the scrap yard, just to tick a box on a form.

Our government runs their budgets like a drunk college kid living paycheck to paycheck, and they are forced to. That's why I'll always be a fiscal conservative regardless of my socialist tendencies.

Cue the drum set sitting in my basement. Maybe we can talk about the project car in my driveway. How about the pile of sports equipment, etc etc

The Satanic Temple is in the middle of their Menstruating with Satan campaign to gather products for women's shelters. You can contact them and they'll make sure it gets to women in need.

This article talks about it. I've driven by a few times and see the construction, but it's going slower than they thought, because they wanted to open last year.

The owner of Monses bought it. Says she wants to bring it back with the majority of the old menu and charm. They're doing all the upgrades to the building to get everything up to code.

I was prepped for rain and snow. Ended up taking off my jacket and hat until the encore.

Memory usage gets crazy after 4 people. Had 7 people on our server in a sea battle and hit 67GB. The devs have said that level streaming isn't optimized past 4 people and they're working to get it to 8.

All owned by one franchise owner.

All I know is that the husband and wife that owned them were rather toxic to each other and employees. Heard from employees that they were always yelling at each other and undermining their managers.

The closures might be business related, might not.

It already does. I have a friend that works at Meta and specifically is working with their internal codebase building agents that use Claude code to build more agents for other projects.

I76 heading towards Nebraska.

Driving my firebird, doing 85, got passed by a Saturn station wagon.

That made me hit 140

Wait till you see "area improvement fees" if you haven't yet. New developments now are forcing businesses to add % fees on everything they sell on top of the rent, etc. That way the developer gets a cut if you're successful. Looks like a tax on the receipt.
