Highlander, did you ever eat at Pizza Express?

perhaps, but there isn't a non-chain that serves thousands of people per day.  for me, that is the mind-boggling aspect of huge, shitty chains - they are not just shitty, but they entice enormous quantities of people to eat there.  this is far more interesting to me than independent local restauran...

Equally puzzling are the non-chain restaurants that everyone purports to love but that actually aren't anything special.

Especially if they would sell gas at $1.32.

The thing that is making me nervous is the Ft. Peck Dam. From what the report states, it isn't a matter of 'if' but 'when'. If it goes, there will be repercussions not just along the Missouri, but all the way to New Orleans. If it holds, hopefully, it will be a wake-up call to overhaul our dams and...

Heading there next month. Haven't been since 2006.

A lot of young people are leaving, or planning to leave, both NYC and NYS: "A new Marist College poll shows that 36% of New Yorkers under the age of 30 are planning to leave New York within the next five years - and more than a quarter of all adults are planning to bolt the Empire State. The Ne...

I'm not sure what to think, either. I'm not interested in iOS features on my PC. Lion looks like Snow Leopard in the sense that it's a big "meh."

What exactly is the damage that keeps it out of production for that long? The debris brought in by the floodwaters? Something else?

I always enjoyed watching the Blades there. Great sight lines. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house.

Supposedly Gingerbread is more power efficient. I hope so because the EVO's battery life blows when it's on CDMA or WiMAX.

EVO gets Gingerbread starting June 6, or June 3 if you want to install it manually: www.goodandevo.net/2011/06/sprint-confi ... orrow.html

Are Shinatoo's photos showing up for anyone else? They say "loading," but then nothing appears.

It is very true that parts of NE JoCo are underwhelming.  The 75th St and Antioch corridors as well as Merriam & east Shawnee are perfect examples.  (side note: An old-timer in the handyman industry once told me that they called the 75th Street corridor “Poverty Ridge” because that is where fol...
