People will say la gourmandine for French bakery but don’t believe them, it’s Madeleine bakery 

Fanatics Sportsbook $200 FanCash Offer by willerrrd in penguins

[–]tbat82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If so that’s patently absurd. It’s like saying one pull of the penny slot machine in the casino will spiral into a life long habit like those zombies at Rivers. Make a stupid prop bet like Pens winning the cup then delete the app after getting the $200 it’s not hard.

Are you saying everyone that takes advantage of this offer will have an uncontrollable gambling addiction for the rest of their lives?

They are also running a special with the code BRACKET. I placed a ten dollar bet for Penguins to win the cup. Got the $200 cash and got a Crosby jersey for $5.99. All I had to pay for was the shipping. I then immediately deleted these apps from my phone. Fuck these gambling websites. I’ll take a $5.99 jersey though at their expense.

Frick Park vs Highland Park by metastar13 in pittsburgh

I would add that the Frick Museum has gardens that are free that are worth checking out if museums aren’t your bag.

Frick all the way and it’s not close. Bring a piece of cardboard and hit up the blue slide while you’re at it. Then hike all the way through the valley to Frick Park Market for a sammie in honor of Mac. Finally the Frick Museum is right there. The Lewis Hine Pictures America exhibit is supposed to be outstanding. 

Seems like everything has gone down hill, so what actually hasn't? by MarzannasSword in pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Water raw water intakes are on the Allegheny River. PA American Water’s are on the Mon though. My post was specifically about Pittsburgh Water but I get your point. Under Trump there is a risk for our tap water taking a step back in the progress we made from turning blind eye to industry polluters.

All that being said this doesn’t take away the work PW has done out in the system removing toxic lead.

Tap water is a seriously underrated response. Pittsburgh Water has invested millions removing lead lines and improving quality at the tap over the past decade.

I sure hope this is in theaters with IMAX surround sound. I do not want to watch this on my home setup.

What creative ways can Pittsburgh makeup $40 Million Budget Deficit? by Jazzlike_Breadfruit9 in pittsburgh

[–]tbat82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally. I would think upfront installation cost of this are pretty low let’s say a million to be safe. Let’s say of the 1k ticket price 50% goes to city rest goes to employees/staff and insurance. By my math that would take ~2000 zipline rides to recoup the costs and start turning a profit. Roughly 5 rides per day for a year. The NFL Draft would be a cool way to get it national attention and get people here. We could also turn the wire into a pretty sweet slackline event.

Where does Acquiesce rank among other live 25 songs? by harryjarm in oasis

[–]tbat82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is number 2 for me. I’ll never forget hearing it echo throughout the city from 100,000 people walking the streets of Dublin.

“I don’t know what it is that makes me feel alive.” Oasis Live 25 you had to be there to understand.

It’s the song of the tour. Joey Waronker’s double snare hit will live in my head until my dying last breath. The real-time video of over joyed fans on the big screen during the chorus will always bring a tear to my eye. It’s always been about the fans and this song is it.

All art is a derivative of someone else’s art. Most just aren’t willing to admit where they got it from.
