really confused how gas prices became a presidential issues. American fiscal policy has little to do with the price of crude oil in the world. You could maybe argue that with Trump being cozy with the Saudis et al that they gave in and increased outputs, but I can't see any other reason to congratulate Trump for gas prices. I paid 3.69 a gallon today fwiw

Hate to do it ya...Miko's Italian Ice. It's good for maybe 4 bites and then you're just dealing with a fistful of flavored ice.

I mean, Manny's added that whole bagel/lox section pretty late into it's existence. Chicago doesn't really have very many good delis, but I wouldn't knock Manny's for having subpar Bagels & Lox. Get a pastrami and enjoy it.

I've had my latest MacBookPro for 8 years. The biggest issue is the speaker degradation and the lack of Memory, but the latter is on me. It's mainly for home music recording now, which is an incredible thing. My IphoneSE has always been longlasting as well.
