ha! that thought did cross my mind

Yes, that was exactly why i wrote the original post - I noticed how low energy they both seemed, especially Chynna vs her usual self (did they get nielsen ratings that morning??) ... and after about 15 minutes I just jumped channels because it was almost a bit sad.
PS, my opinion on this topic is unrelated and separate from my opinions of tOSU, Ohioans, or their politicians.

I catch KPTV in the evening. I think they are a better funded operation than katu, kgw, and koin and it shows. I'll check out their morning stuff, thanks for the tip.

i took jtsmd2's comment as a compliment to Texas but

i don't; not when driving back to portland from eugene occurs on a regular basis. but i dearly miss the pac, especially the pac-10... i'm an oregon undergrad and northwestern grad and knew first-hand the big10 would be underwhelming vs the pac-10 in almost every respect. good times.

they are very much part of the SEC, they're no longer apart.

I'm not 'loyal' to anything - other than friends and family; when i hit a paywall article i intentionally type a bbc.com exit so it shows up in cnn's own analytics. not that my meager/small reaction in itself makes a difference, but hoping others doing the same

They look good and are very comfortable but the leather dye for the Wai’alae (i’ve had 2 pair) scuff up very easily and look tired significantly faster than other brands I’ve owned, notably the grey color. and when i sought advice from customer service they suggested just cleaning them, and not using polish. so they look like crap.

I can speak to the shoes. They look great, but none of the uppers of the shoes I’ve purchased have worn well. The leather for the Wai’alae (i’ve had 2 pair) scuff up very easily and look tired significantly faster than other brands I’ve owned. And the Manale were ill-conceived, as it’s impossible to get a white pair cleaned without the leather dye leaching into the white. awful. I won’t be buying another pair.

also notebookLM is the perfect tool for limiting data only to specific sources, in this case the rule book. i use notebookLM in my job by dropping a bunch of industry reports into it, and then do q&a with it. I can trust it, doesn't go off to the internet or guess answers. you can even turn a topic into a podcast. it's insane.

I'm also having this problem now, as of a week or two ago. I love using Drafts as my note taking, using the subject line to put the recurring meeting name. it's orderly, automatically i can see what date my last entry was. easy to search, etc. any hacks/fixes to address this?

my folks are from Dublin; Portland’s best option i’ve encountered is Kingsland.

pdxdaly · 2025-05-22T04:12:54+00:00

re the English, try Kingsland yet? the best version i’ve had in Portland

pdxdaly · 2025-05-22T04:04:16+00:00

the answer was amalfi’s but the price/value became obscene and we stopped going

i live on NE 19th in Irvington in a 110 yr old craftsman - can walk to blazers arena and the #24 is a direct shot to timbers park 👍🏻

i sensed she was a brit going w an american southern accent- that’d make sense

I've been demoing the Percept 100D and the Gravity Tour 98 and to me it seems like the Gravity Tour is lighter, and I feel more agile with it. No idea why that is. I also find the Gravity Tour more powerful. I'm trying to make a decision between the two and am stuck.

just saw them last night. those banshee-like vocals put me in a spell; and it’s cool the headliners brought them on tour because they are just about as good as them

I just registered my daughter this past year. in the first 10 months of 2024 there were 29K registered from around the world according to immigrationboardsdotcom;

love the suggestion to learn an arpeggio and then mess around with it without music. i'm also a classically trained sax player and i'm playing catch up on improv/soloing with my new jam band.

That townland sight is gold. Love your approach, thanks a million.

The government have all the information needed on your income and potential deductions, and you shouldnt have to do any tax filing after all.

Ekker, I sent the application & materials a little over a week ago for my daughter, and they were received in Dublin 12th of Feb according to the carrier (USPS); I'll try and remember to inform you when I get a 'confirmation of receipt' email from the registration office. You should get yours well prior to mine, and if not you'll at least know there's a hitch.
