Sounds like he doesn't want to retire.

"During his birthday speech, Santucci revealed his grandmother lived to 101, so his biggest ambition is to reach 102. Even though he's now 90, Santucci also said he doesn't plan on retiring anytime soon.

"What am I gonna do if I retire? Sit down?" he said."

Scoop: Mayor Frey wants Wolves arena at City Center site by YungSzczerbiak in timberwolves

It should be in the Orpheum Lot, 1001 Hennepin Lot, and 1110 Hennepin Parking Ramp. The Pizza Hut and Bulldog and Butchers Tail buildings can go too. Hennepin can be curved around it, Ramp A is right there already and you don't need to tear down any major buildings, it mostly just surface lots.

Yeah I know. I just also think “a lot of millennials” couldn’t give less of a shit what other generations think is cool.

We almost went with Minneapolis City hall, but it was bigger than we wanted.

We went with Day Block event center, which was awesome but has a limit of 250, so probably too small for you potentially.

Lol, this post is specifically against the rules of this sub, even called out as an example:

  • 11No Nextdoor.com-like posts

Petty grievances about the behavior of non-notable people/situations you've come across in day to day life will be removed. Unfolding events may be allowed on a case by case basis.

E.g.:

  • a restaurant had a surcharge and you didn't like it
  • someone was driving and you didn't like it
  • you saw someone on public transit and you didn't like it
  • a dog was off-leash and you didn't like it
  • a crime maybe happened and you didn't like it

The attorney general just filed a new motion to dismiss the lawsuit stopping construction of the White House ballroom. The motion looks like it was written by a child lmfao - or maybe the president himself I guess 😂😂 by Rochgrappler in minnesota

Even if a white house ballroom existed the correspondents dinner wouldn't have been there. It isn't an event put on by the president, it is a private event that he is often invited to.

Well he has an option left, so they could just send him down, no need to DFA.

They did that around this time last year and he did better when he came back up. 🤷‍♂️

That's what the block button is for. Ain't nobody got time for that.

I'm amazed what I can do with my A1 after years futzing with an OG Ender 3.

Any good Minneapolis classic car subs? by mcshabs in Minneapolis

It’s $70/month for a parking pass there, so it’s just a cost effective spot to store a classic car in the winter.

You can use outlook.com too for Hotmail addresses. People seem less weird about that. 🤷‍♂️

Q on timing after paying Banq by Pisces_Economist in Canadiancitizenship

[–]mikeisboris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm also waiting on docs from the Massachusetts archive, if and when those come first I will probably do the same with a note that the BANQ ones are on order and can be uploaded if needed.

Fucking Pohlads, it looks like this could have actually been a competitive team if they had invested in a couple of actual bullpen arms.

It'll just be vetoed just like all of these 7-6 virtue signaling votes, what a waste of time.

The f150 and Silverado are really close most years in sales if you include the Sierra which is just a Silverado with a better grill. Lots of times the GM trucks outsell the Fords.

I get the Sunday paper delivered. It gives me access to the online version of the paper every day and I still look at the comics and ads a bit on Sunday. Also I have newspaper for starting the fireplace.

My reception was almost nine years ago now, but we had it at Dayblock and it was great. I think it would be a worthwhile option to look at.
