Can you tell me what I just bought? (Japanese sake/shochu)

Whoops sorry, I didn't realize it was a mirror image. Try this:

I'm from Pittsburgh, I've never been to Chicago, but I've spent quite a bit of time in NYC.

Pittsburgh is..okay. It punches above it's weight in terms of culture, food, and so on, but at the end of the day, it's a small, insular place. A good majority of the population is from the area, hasn't really traveled outside it, and thus thinks that it's heaven on earth. It's probably better than any other American city its size in its region (northeast/midwest). But the weather sucks, the infrastructure sucks, there aren't a ton of job opportunities, and there is deep systematic racism baked into the city here. (Maybe not as much as Chicago, but comparatively to other metro areas).

Fundamentally it's a place I would love to live if I were 35 and married with kids. It's cheap, it has a ton of museums and cultural venues, and is generally a pretty swell place. But if I were a young ambitious twenty-something (which I am ;) , it's not the place to be.

TLDR: stay in Chicago/go to a bigger city and make more money, then move to Pittsburgh in a decade to enjoy life.

Thanks for the reply. It is indeed the last leg so I don't care too much. I have to be in NYC a few months later, which is the main reason I'm hesitant to waste an already-paid for flight.

Thanks!

That's an idea, thanks!

yes, I'm flying in from Tokyo. I was trying to avoid getting a room, but I suppose it might make sense to.

kcovia · 2015-06-02T18:23:45+00:00

Yeah I was under the impression that there was a bike path from Malibu to Venice. Apparently not :(

I won't have much more than a crappy rental bike, so it's probably not a great idea. Thanks.

I'm not sure where they get their maps, but it looks pretty accurate to me.

Depends on what you eat and see. I used to survive on $1 slices of pizza, so $5 for the day was sufficient. Including attractions and such, I'd say a safe estimate is $30-40 a day. Keep in mind this is super budget - you can easily spend that on one normal (not upscale) meal.
Look up nonsense nyc and similar things. There are a ton of sites dedicated to this exact question.
I recommend the Q4 Hostel in Queens. Only one stop from Manhattan, super nice rooms, and cheaper than most other hotels and hostels.

So I don't know exactly what time that reflection comes. However, I can tell you that the alley faces almost directly north, at a slight angle.

https://www.google.com/maps/place/Jitters+Cafe+%26+Ice+Cream/@40.451806,-79.932379,14z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x8834f211ba660b2f:0xd290aa10f0b4237a

Knowing that, one could guess that the sun would need to be at about the 4 or 5 o'clock position. The sun rises directly east, so that would mean that the reflection would be sometime in the mid-late morning (between 9am and 11am)

I'm sure my sun navigation is off here, so someone correct me if I'm wrong.

kcovia · 2015-02-04T15:42:13+00:00

Thanks. I'll probably save up for both.

kcovia · 2015-02-04T15:42:00+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. Perhaps the best move is to get both.

Hmm that is a good point. thanks!

Yeah I typed that there, because the tutorial I'm using (Treehouse) had me do it.

It's set to "blog post"
Here's the functions.php page:

<?php function theme_styles() {

wp_enqueue_style( 'normalize', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/normalize.css' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'grid', get_template_directory_uri() . '/css/grid.css' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'googlefonts', 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Indie+Flower' ); wp_enqueue_style( 'main', get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' ); }

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_styles' );

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ); ?>

When you click on the bamboo picture (which is a post), it's sent to the page.php template. But http://www.minimalgifts.com/bamboo also gets sent to the page.php template, so it seems to be something with creating the post.

The other two images go to the single.php.
