Did you already add anything? I can send you a promo to get your first ride free, up to $20, for Uber...which I recommend much more than cabs.

We took Uber yesterday. It was $7 to go half a mile but worth every penny. Free would have been better though. I forgot about the traffic up here, OMG!

Last month I went to a work conference in Miami, and we Ubered literally everywhere. Never had to wait more than a few minutes and had some entertaining drivers.

Though it sounds more expensive here than South Florida!

Welcome to nova. Maybe you'll bring some sunshine? Please????

I came here to enjoy the cool weather. I'll leave once the heat here starts matching the heat back home. :)

so shocked that Joker didn't take FO. Stanimal was on fire Sunday. Somehow as a Nadal fan, I got a inner chuckle at the results.

Has Cabin John changed to brighter bulbs yet? I am so spoiled with inner courts. And @ $12/hr is somewhat affordable.

i had the mcd 1/3 lb burger combo. it was filling

it's really good. This burger reminds me or a Carl's and a Hardee's burger for some reason. but I gotta admit, that angus burger (which was discontinued) was the best fast food burger I had in a while. Texture and flavor of the meat tasted like a quality hamburger. I didn't mind playing $5 for that burger.

never had one of those fancy McDs burgers.

McDs is trying to hard to compete with these upstart fancy places. This new redisgned menu andall that crap sucks. Just give me a burger fries and a vanilla milkshake (which they have now ruined by making it with real ice cream and putting whip cream and stuff on it)


Speaking of Hardees, has anyone had the american burger with the potato chips and hot dog on it?

Heres the link to the picture, its like possibly the largest highest quality picture ever taken of a burger. Would probably kill a whole months worth of data plan by itself at 10013 × 6151

Heres a smaller one.

^^^ prob kill the caloric intake also for the same month. Iam wondering if i can sub onion rings instead of chips?

Im sure they would do that. They already put onion rings on the western bacon cheeseburger (which is legit).


Also the hot dog pizza looks pretty sweet. Although I prefer plochmans mustard to frenchs

Trying to post in reddit. I can't seem to put an image on there. Reddit is very addictive.

anyone play league?

My 18+ 8.0 team just won states ( districts) so we move on to sectionals in a week

My 40+ 8.0 team is playing the local playoffs this week.

My 40+ 4.5 team won the local league and will be at states in a few weeks

My 18+ 4.5 team just won its local league playoffs as the #6 seed. booyaa

I finally found my holy grail of control string. No wonder its the #1 control string in the string-forum ratings, NOT POLL, but the actual ratings from around the world.

weiss cannon scorpion is the GOAT of polys

Scorpion is actually quite powerful for a poly but if it works for your game, don't change a thing.

They put us 40 year olds on a hard court this year for Sectionals in mid-July. We will cook lunch literally on the courts.

I agree its powerful vs other polys, as it seems to have a bit more elasticity that stays for a longer period of time.

The main thing with scorpion is the control IMO is so great that it allows me to feel confident going after the ball with great ball rotation and confidence. Heavy slice ...

The new pure drive + was just a bit too powerful for my normal gut mains / poly cross set up.

As soon as I switched to this string I beat 2 undefeated 4.5's in the 18+ league. When you feel you cant miss, it really relaxes you and you play even better.

Cheers

Like I said, if it works for you don't change. Unless we face each other in Nationals, then you might want to try out some new strings...

Hey Sap. Did u ever end up with the smoker? You mentioned you were getting the Masterbuilt Model. How's the build quality? Just afraid i'll end up with a giant thin can with metal shelves. Amzn has a model on sale.
