Thanks for the heads up! Bit out of my price range though.

The mayo tip that comes to mind that is not mentioned is to use Kewpie mayo. It's just better than other mayo I've used (but Duke's is good too). I didn't know until I just looked it up now but it has some MSG (good thing) and uses egg yolks. I picked some up at Costco and I'm fully converted.
Republicanism has long been about recasting selfishness as a virtue.
Great line
What the fuck I thought Super PACs were not allowed to coordinate with the candidate...right? ....right? It's paying his fucking legal bills how is that not a violation? Oh that's right because it's a fucking corrupt bullshit concept. The supreme court's awful Citizens United ruling completely fucked over this country.
Yow, they must be doing well their whole website is sold out
As with many things there's not a clear cut answer. I think you could make a strong case for the Katy Freeway expansion being a failure where those resources would have been better spent on other forms of transportation. I'd agree that adding lanes is not always a bad idea, but blindly adding lanes like the US has done for decades has not been a good thing overall, imo. We're dependent on cars for everything, they're heating up the planet and they're a very inefficient solution to the ultimate problem of getting people from point A to B. I'm not so much anti-car as anti-inefficient travel that has saddled us with tons of negative aspects to city life.
What does modernizing highway infrastructure even mean? I don't think you could call adding more lanes "modernizing" if you're being serious. That's been the blind answer for years but adding more lanes does not solve congestion/demand/whatever you want to call it. It's not an efficient way to solve the transportation problem. You spend a ton of resources (punishing people bulldozing neighborhoods or with noise pollution, destroying nature, etc) and you still have the same ultimate problem you did before you started, people traveling slowly in a pollution emitting vehicle. So doing both is not even the point when one side of the equation (adding lanes) is a very poor solution. Focus on better solutions like public transportation reaching more people.
Yeah I mean you're kind of just re-framing point. Yes the mega highway has the ability to move more cars, but still the end result after 5 years is it's actually taking longer to move cars than before (at peak travel time). So what if it's due to induced demand, we just want to solve the problem of getting people from point A to B, and adding more lanes is a very inefficient transportation method. It's a massive waste of resources when moving around in a car is so costly compared to public transit.
The best technique as far as I've heard is to cut it down to the stump and put a bit of Glyphosate (Roundup) on the fresh cut. I've used an eyedropper but seen these little bottles with a foam top to stamp the stump with.
Groups around us will have privet clearing parties and that's what they do.
He probably gets off from that.
