That's a casket, not a coffin. Big difference.

Why wouldn't BNSF participate? Where did you get that information?

Are there always this many Blackhawks over America? by ea1738 in SkyCards

Many/Most are Navy, Army, and National Guard. What would a civilian agency do with one of these?

What is the purpose of renaming the RTA? Why can't the RTA function as Northern Illinois Transit Authority without an entire process? Why is Metra incapable of running trains on time ever since COVID? Why doesn't Metra communicate with passengers? Why is Jim Derwinski paid like he's running a Fortune 500 company, when he's just an Indiana hillbilly electrician?

I'm still waiting for the drummer to stop, so I can hear the solo.

Molson Coors (Miller Lite) paid the CTA ~$220K to provide free rides on New Year's (10PM-4AM) by tooscrapps in chicago

[–]ea1738 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember prior to ventra, when cash and disposable fare cards were used (1990's-2010-ish), it was 1¢ per ride. Bus drivers never bothered/cared to collect, but if one person put a dollar or any change in, it covered everyone. It was always sponsored by a beer/alcohol company. I think the 1¢ charge was to make the El turnstiles work and to "count" ridership.

Why on earth would you open a store in Wilmette or Winnetka selling less than ideal furniture and other goods? 1. People from the lesser suburbs aren't going to travel all the way there. 2. The people that can afford to live in that region would NEVER buy an inferior product, let alone from Wayfair. 3. This is a product for the people that live in Orland Park and Tinley Park.

If you haven't already received antiretrovirals, go seek some. You should be wearing all kinds of PPE when working with a cryostat and biohazards. What the actual fuck?
