    Right. But again, that was uber saying that. It was part of their campaign to get people to vote in their favor that it was a cost issue.

    That's a great, eclectic art work. In my neighborhood. And it's on Roosevelt Ave.

    That's where I get it. They sell it at CostCo but I don't have a membership.

    Santana dove for a drive and bent his wrist back. Looked like it could've been bad, but he seems okay.

    I don't like coke ... new, original, diet, cherry, zero, powdered ... no. Pepsi is better, but my go to beverage these days isn't pop of any kind ... Steaz peach tea. It's the best.

    This wasn't the taxi industry putting the squeeze on a competitor. This was the city, after several sexual assault complaints on uber drivers, insisting that uber and lyft finger print their drivers. It went to a referendum which was voted on by the people of Austin. This had nothing to do with the taxi industry doing anything, but I'm sure they are happy about it. Whether it's finger printing or back ground checks or something else, I do think uber drivers should go through some kind of vetting process.

    Hahahaha ... still on the floor laughing with 'Fargo is urban enough'

    Interesting article ... Lyft and Uber are out of Austin, TX. I often wondered, living in the large city I do, how much Uber and Lyft add to the traffic congestion here. And I also wonder how they can essentially be 'taxis' but not be at all regulated. But anyway ... Uber was voted out ... all because they didn't want to adhere to one regulation ... finger printing drivers, something that the city insisted on because allegations of sexual assaults by drivers. It went to a referendum, the people voted, and Uber/Lyft lost, so they've pulled up stakes and left Austin. What's the scoop, Van?

    Uh, yeah, no.

    Yeah, I just had my toes rolled over by a cart holding 5 boxes of travertine tile. I don't think anything is broken, but ouch.

    Oh good Lord ... apple pie is about the easiest of all pies to make! Get off your butt and just do it. I do not accept any blame for this.

    lol ... I wasn't crying because I was moving to Canada ... I was crying because I was leaving HOME It all worked out, and I like Chicago, but I do still miss living in MN
  20. Squirrel
    Hahaha ... take pictures to share with the rest of us. And congrats on the move ... it's a long, long way from home ... but it sounds like a good deal for you and your family.

    When I left Minnesota for a job in Canada, I cried the whole way out of town and across WI. I still consider MN home and may live there again once I retire ... but not in winter. I think we should plan a trip out there ... we can all take the Empire Builder out to visit you!

    Ooou ... gonna set up a tent in Chief's backyard? Wait ... or maybe Pseudo's backyard? Or ... who else lives in AZ?

    Maybe you're right, but I still think Clinton is better suited to navigate her way through and make some progress even if small and incremental. I just think Sanders' solutions would also 'scare' the GOP into being less likely to budge at all towards any progress whatsoever, even if small. But I agree that if Clinton wins large in November, and the Dems can take the Senate and narrow the margin in the House, that larger progress can be made if acted upon in the 1st 6 months.

    Could I add, that when you start a new thread for a prospect, could you put '2016' in the title, so when some do a search, it's clear which year it is? I'll edit titles for now, but if you start any new threads, that would help.

    I'm not sure either is true. As for the trifecta, I think the Dems will take back the Senate this election. (Well, probably will lose it in midterms as that is their calling card.) As for obstruction from the House, with Bernie as president, yes, there will be. How he wants to institute his programs will meet with a LOT of push back and Bernie is like Trump in one aspect ... he's a 'my way or the highway' candidate. And while some might think it's staying his ground, and not giving a 'moral' inch, the result is nothing accomplished. It's kind of how his entire career in Congress has gone. I have no faith that with him as president, it will be any different. Clinton on the other hand, is a warrior. She'll push back, too, and she'll work to get things done. She knows how to compromise, and in true fashion will be characterized as giving in, but while it won't get her as far as some people want, it will at least be incremental progress vs none at all.
