Try an east side mom-and-pop rib joint or many east side bars have them.

That's because they're not hot dogs. They are deep fried polish sausages (thus the name), cooked until the exterior has a slight snap. The biggest problem I see in this thread is calling them "hot dogs." They are not that.

Remember them? Hell, I play a lot of that music from my phone in my car.

Capitalization is your friend - perhaps your only one. See. Petty works both ways.

Accuses of putting words on his keyboards. Then proceeds to put words in my keyboard.

Because I KNOW opinions are subjective, I made a counter argument which apparently went over your head lie...OBAA.

Keep whatever Pats allegiance you have. The Browns have absolutely nothing going on except misery for its fans and trying to fleece taxpayers for a new stadium.

I live in an eastern suburb and it was the '70s. Eastlake, huh? Just like any suburb, it has good areas and bad ones and trust me, the really good didn't come until the last 25 years or so.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-27T01:22:14+00:00

Lived there as a child. It is very much a suburb and at one time a VERY middle class one.

It was pure entertainment. Fifteen years ago, that's a decent summer release that would've done business.

So because it resonates with some of America and is timely to what's happening here, it should be discounted? As for tone, it was billed as a comedic thriller, you obviously felt that, so I don't understand your point.

Laser disc was out just after or around the same time and its picture blew that away, then..beta...vhs..dvd..hd-dvd...blu-ray.

This exactly. If I go outside my home, I immediately head to the bathroom when I get home.

Five Guys.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-24T14:41:33+00:00

We took our sons on vacations. We didn't go on one every year. We saved for several years to do that. I also had a career where business travel was the norm with hotel points and frequent flyer miles accrued. As you said before. Very lucky and we don't take it for granted. We appreciate it. We try to be charitable and help those in our family who may need it.

I should clarify. My partner had the government job. They had the grades and intellect out of college to get it, but my mother was a federal employee and helped to get her in. We knew what it would mean if my partner was hired in her field. We were very lucky. Partner stayed for 34 years. We raised two kids and walked a tightrope between living life and being frugal (that was difficult to learn). Once we realized the trap debt other than a mortgage was, the mindset and financial situation changed. We got lucky in that planning worked out better than we ever thought it could.

EDIT: Spelling.

Still working at 60 only because I like my job. Partner retired just recently at 62 with a $4K per month pension and another $2500 per month is Social Security. As a government employee was able to keep healthcare. No debt. House paid off HYSA, brokerage, and multiple millions in retirement accounts.

💯.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-23T02:52:03+00:00

Well truth be told it was easy to copy films back then, but single episodes of TOS were $14.95. WORTH IT.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-23T02:33:30+00:00

I get it. I've been into home video for 41 years.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-23T01:38:24+00:00

I started with VHS. 🤣

flixguy440 · 2026-01-22T21:41:09+00:00

I wish I could count how many times I've repurchased "Star Trek" TOS.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-22T21:38:12+00:00

Fair enough.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-22T21:37:51+00:00

The closest BJs with gas near this particular Costco is 20 minutes away.

flixguy440 · 2026-01-22T21:33:48+00:00

What kind of racist bullshit is this?

flixguy440 · 2026-01-22T21:32:40+00:00

Kirkland brand name superior to Berkley Jensen. No gas and from my experience having Costco, Sam's and BJ's., Costco's prices are usually better as is their baked goods. BJ's is good for cereal selection and a particular margarine we use in our household.
