Skook said it's going to defy wolf's shutdown recommendations. Developing.

Forgot about the bagel posts a whil ago, meant to chime in. Best bagel store hands down is the bagel exp in brodheadsville. The key is the water. I was told they truck in NYC public water for production. That's not to discredit tarponheads, I'm sure those are amazing. Baking pics are on point.

I know that the sunoco around here has it, along with an exxon. not sure if they have an agreement with the manufacturer or not but i'd start there. those are the 16oz cans. My wife showed me some energy shot style, like a bigger 5hr energy bottle. I'm waiting for someone to start using it for mixed drinks. itd be like 4loko 2.0

we were gifted a keurig and i miss auto brew and a legitimate amount of coffee so much. black + a shot. only way to go. mexicoffee is decent for a little change of pace but just a cup or two will do. what about the beer release part? edit: @GrilledSteezeSandwich - have you ever tried Bang? I used to drink SFRB too, but this is way better and SF. please don't make some joke about the name.
-
if you like black coffee, never go to dunkin. they only get away with shit coffee because they add a ton of milk and sugar to it. wawa is mediocre. as much as i hate the starbucks aura, it's the only decent place near here (20 min) with good black coffee. lmao at waiting for beer releases.

Someone that wants some stupid shit like a double mocha frappucino with a pump of peppermint and soy milk with a dash of something powdery on top with vegan whipped cream on top of that and no straw.
-
Wow that's a lot. In the last 15 years, Blue this season and Jack frost once (twice if you include the time I took my wife, had to hike halfway up the slope and took one run on my own then left). Pretty unimpressive.

Do you have a striping bar/roller?

i was going to do it last weekend but we had a fam emergency. the weekend before something else came up. it had to be done today. i do this pattern when my wife is busy and can't mow the front with a push mower. it's too large to mow that frequently prob 3.5 acre of mowable area. i think it's a 4 gal tank but yeah it's cheap. personally i think it's bullshit that what i put into a lawnmower is subject to road tax.
-
got my first cut in today. fortunately mower started without issue after sitting for months. i love time lapse. took almost 2 hours god damn
-
Crap I forgot I'm totally booked for next summer. Oh well maybe summer 2050
-
Chile next summer. Be there. Probably not nearly as many ppl as europe, prob cheaper and it's skiing in summer.
-
yup. 2nd most densely populated county in pa, behind philadelphia county. we drive to that walmart even though it's a little further than mt pocono. love that view lol
-
correct.
-
I hate that area, not so much the people. So, to answer your question, NYNJ. @JFskiDan I was surprised how much Carbon lagged behind. It was pretty impressive. Being a little more insulated from NYNJ helps I think. Commuters were a big problem too and took a while to stop, pretty sure that's why Luzerne spiked, could be wrong. And this was amazingly said -- "They are from NY, the live on half an acre, which they think it is the size of a farm, and yelling is basically their way of talking..."

One easy way is to just import a shit ton of new Yorkers and new Jerseyans via short term rentals and then wait forever to disallow it. Thanks Gov.

It runs on android, so it's basically just a regular android phone, but it has the standard BlackBerry keyboard. I can't do that tap and pray shit, especially with what I do. I'm not hitting 5 buttons to get a bracket. Will buy the same one once it dies. If Apple put out something with a physical keyboard, I would certainly consider it. It is a Priv. @GrilledSteezeSandwich I meant a computer screen share.
-
FB live let's you do screen sharing. I keep trying to think of ways to utilize it that since I've never seen anyone do it before. I feel like there is some real potential there.
-
Thanks, you too. Not trying to get into a pissing match. Whatever I'm saying, it's just my opinion. Doesn't mean it's right at all. Someone in my household may or may not work in the same place that C1er said was teeming with outsiders at the onset. I may or may not have been tested (negative). We are definitely on edge here and not taking it lightly. At some point though, to me, something's gotta give.
-
Something on Google and some math. I'm very sorry if it was wrong. It's basically 6pct with those numbers. Still doesn't change my original position.
-
you don't really know how many positives there are though, so the mortality rate you're giving is the ceiling. for all anyone knows, most of the population could have already had it. without testing everyone for antibodies, you'll never know the true mortality rate. then take into account the mortality rate for different vectors like age or preexisting conditions. I understand that young, healthy people have died, but the mortality rate in in someone like that, vs a senior in a facility with a hundred of their peers is very different. Finally, the US does not revolve around NJ. Nationally, the mortality rate is 1.2% if I'm correct - and that's for all demographics. If you narrow it down by geographic location, whether or not someone has a concept of basic prevention, demographic and being asymptomatic entirely, and I am willing to bet that death (not contracting the disease) becomes ultra slim potential for a very large percentage of the population.
-
Knoebels is in that zone though they said they'll be closed indefinitely.
-
my guess is that they are praying to god that people not in their shoes will start weighing the ultra slim potential of dying from covid vs the very real potential of being destitute. and it's Trumpbuxâ„¢
-
i wish people would be as interested in the numbers for people who will be economically or psychologically damaged into perpetuity from this. the mental health fallout is going to dwarf covid deaths. a story about john and jane with two kids, who were already struggling before everything went to shit, and what their life is like after things are relaxed, when they are homeless and unemployed, isn't as glamorous as the incessant 'in this together!' virtue signaling.
