There's a guy that just set up a trailer and 4 smokers at a busy intersection about a half mile from my house - jury is still out on his stuff.
Gotta support local entrepreneurs. I always give food trucks and trailers extra credit just for existing.
There's this truck, Rojo Taco, in Houston and I still regret not having one more of their taco plates w/ nopales before leaving town. It was on my schedule, but then Hurricane Harvey hit and I don't know what happened to him. I hope he's OK. I can close my eyes and conjure the smell of his food.
Congress cannot give agencies blank checks to do whatever they want.
Oh, you sweet, summer child.
If an agency is going back and forth on a regulation, it's a sign to the courts that the agency is operating outside of law, and the regulation may be found to be void.
Basically, what you're saying is that the agencies can basically do what they want and then say, "So sue us". Which, by the way, is exactly what happens. Then you have a fight over standing to sue, and the Justice Department will weigh in, and if the administration happens to like the maybe/maybe not legal thing that the agency is doing, that'll be about the end of it.
In this case they're not undoing the Network Neutrality provisions just because they want to, but because they can show that they have a mandate by law to correct the error committed by the previous commission.
Except they have shown no such thing. So far, the only thing that's been shown is the receipts for the huge donations lobbyists have made. If there had been a legal "error" committed by the previous administration regarding FCC regs, we might have heard something about all the successful lawsuits against the rules.
This will never happen it would destroy too many stills and upset the brother sister mating habits of the hillbillies. The other danger would be that the hyperloop might drown out the constant strumming of Banjo music that the brother sisters mate too.
That's racist.
When I lived in Missouri, I met one of the finest luthiers in the US. He made me a beautiful ukulele. He was the exact opposite of a dumb hillbilly. There are some great people in Missouri.
I just left Texas after living there a year. The brisket there is nothing but burned meat. I ate a lot of Texas bbq, maybe a couple of times a week. The Pit Room in Houston is very good, and there's a place over by Baytown that is fantastic, but it doesn't rank in the top 10 of US bbq.
Ribs & Bibs on 53rd Street in Chicago is much better than anything in Texas. KC and STL are better. Nashville, Carolina - both better.
I have gotten decent bbq in Ohio. I'm trying to remember where it was. It must have been 20 years ago, but I'm drawing a blank on the name and where it was.
They're big cities, and there's a lot of business transacted between them. Everything doesn't happen on the coasts, you know.
There's already a train that will take you from KC to St Louis, or vice versa, for about 30 bucks.
Note: I used to live in Rolla, MO, and have traveled to KC and STL on many occasions. I just don't see the need for a Hyperloop. It's not like they're going to carry freight.
In fact most of my domestic travel as of late has been b/w St Louis & KC, and b/w St Louis & Chicago which is another route that could also benefit greatly from the hyperloop.
Oh, I can see Chicago - St Louis. People want to come up to Wrigley Field to see the Cards play the Cubs and Chicagoans travel to St Louis to buy meth and guns.
Why would anyone want to go from St Louis to Kansas City, or vice versa? And if there is some reason that you actually need to make that trip, why would you want to do it in such a hurry?
I'm not trying to make a joke here. I really need to know.
oops. my bad. thanks. some reason I thought it the same law. Dang Jones and his laws!
It's OK, I heard talking heads on TV make the same mistake last week. The two laws were passed within a few years of each other, so it's an easy mistake to make, and they both impact Puerto Rico.
I didn't ignore it that is why I said "the act that gave PRs citizenship while trying to create strong economic and cultural ties to the mainland".
I think you're talking about two different laws. I'm pretty sure the Jones Act that has to do with shipping is different from the Jones-Shafroth Act that gave Puerto Ricans citizenship.
Now that you mention it, the amount spent on ads doesn't have anything to do with effect on an electorate if you can get millions of yahoos to believe and share fake ones for free.
You're right about #strawman, and I've got one for you:
"but we're supposed to believe $50k worth of ads on Facebook had an effect on the election?"
.Civil Forfeiture is an immoral and most likely Unconstitutional act.
The Trump administration loves civil forfeiture. They've expanded it in every way, and have overturned all of the limitations that the Obama administration placed on it in 2015. There will be more asset forfeiture until the Trump regime is safely out of power.
I test drove a GM car the last time I was in the market for a new one, and it was the worst of the 4 or 5 different models.
I test drove a 2015 Camaro Z28 a while back and it ripped my clothes off. I'm holding out for the 2018 Z1 though. I've got a friend with a Chevy dealership and I think it's time I get something nice. My wife says, "nah", but I'm working on it, daily.
Yeah, from the 32nd floor across the street -.22 and 9mm wouldn't be used...;)
You're right. From the 32nd floor across the street, a suppressor wouldn't have made much difference with the sound of the rifles.
Their main function would have been making the rifles more stable, allowing the gunman to have better aim when murdering 58 people and wounding over 500.
In testing, most of the suppressors reduced the volume to between 130 and 145 dB
Suppressed.22 and 9 millimeter is less than 115 dB.
The problematic thing about suppressors is that they change the sound of gunfire enough that most people wouldn't recognize it as such. That's why the military used those Qual-A-Tec type suppressors to dispatch dogs when they're approaching a hostile village.
Current reports are that the shooter rented a room in the hotel and sneaked the guns into the room in a golf bag.
Ten rifles, and enough ammo to kill or wound over 500 people. That was one heavy motherfucking golf bag.
How do you even fit 10 rifles in a golf bag?
So what gun law you think this guy would have obeyed?
"Nothing can be done about mass shootings", says the only country where these things regularly happen.
Today is the 275th day of 2017. We have had 273 mass shootings so far this year. What the fuck is so wrong with America that we have to have one of these every day? There hasn't been a mass shooting in Australia since 1996. What laws do they have there that keep this from happening?

Bots, fake comments, and the government doing unpopular things.
Are you starting to sense a pattern here?

It's a consensus among people who really know good BBQ. Yes, we're a minority, but an informed minority.
The AMTRAK train from STL to KC and back (only $30) is plenty fast. Nobody in Missouri needs to get anywhere faster than that.
As someone who once lived in Rolla, I assure you that there's no reason to be in such a hurry.
There's already a train that will take you from KC to St Louis, or vice versa, for about 30 bucks.

Yeah, but my penis gets bigger the more I think about that Camaro.
Your president has expanded civil forfeiture.
