Maybe they could have reduced ticket prices this year instead of increasing them. Less content for more moneyโ€ฆ. Was there 2 years ago and itโ€™s like almost double this year from back then. Priced out a lot of people.

Iโ€™m finding the interface on the ESPN app, at least for the Apple TV is awful. I know matches are streaming and can find them on my phone but not on the Apple TV. Seems like refreshing a couple times they will eventually show up. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Thereโ€™s no compromise in politics anymore, but just think if you had a court with equal party affiliation numbers, theyโ€™d have to compromise on decisions. That would actually cause internal debate to come to that decision. Results would be much more non-partisan and probably better for all.

So Japan negotiated to have 2 atomic bombs dropped on them which in effect ended the US war in the Pacific. Iโ€™m guessing this administration will have the Smithsonian change the history for that too. Fortunately the many history books tell it how it was.

Years ago they built co-gen plants to burn the coal dust. So mountains of black dust are being replaced by mountains of orange ash which is the waste from the plants.

Grew up in a coal town. Sometimes your clothes come off the line clean, sometimes theyโ€™re getting rewashed. I remember that black snow on the ground in the winter. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Coal region area of NE PA. Iโ€™d take solar panels over the end result of coal strip mining. Oh BTW a lot of areas close by see coal dust when it gets blown around.

This is the one. He crawled under my shed and was convulsing. Had the game commission come and take care of it and had it tested.

So weโ€™re going to have tanks driving in DC streets??? Whoโ€™s going to pay for the damage they will do. It wonโ€™t be fixing a pothole or two. Tremendous waste of money time and resources.

Their pay should be based on their approval rating. Whatโ€™s their salary? Round up to $200k. The approval rating last year was 18%. So they should get $36k for that time. If they have a high approval rating then they must be working for us. 18% approval in any business would get up fired.

So in my state we pay 6% sales tax. So something that costs $3, we pay $3.18. So, whoโ€™s going to take the hit? Round up, the consumer will pay, round down the company pays. We all know the consumer will pay.
