Haha my city had a Dick's Last Resort, it was fun! My favorite story about that place is when my boss and his wife (unknowingly) went there with another couple. They were VERY proper Brits (in the US) in their mid 70's. The husband of the other couple wanted to know if there were seeds on the sandwich bun . The waitress asked if he was a some kind of F●●●ing expert. The guy goes on to explain he has diverticulitis without batting an eye

I'll never forget my dad bought a used Renault Alliance because he saw an old Consumer Reports magazine that had it as "car of the year". What he didn't see was the article where they retracted the title. It was a money pit

My childhood fear was getting the vaccine shot for the swine flu which was a big issue in the mid 70's. My 5th grade class received new text books and there was a photo of a kid getting the vaccine shot. Instead of a needle it was delivered by a big device that looked like an uzi machine gun and I was terrified of it. Time passed and I never got the shot. That's when I learned how the news works.

My girlfriend gave me a hard time about it. I told her I was pro-choice

I used to listen to some metal (Motorhead, Slayer, Metallica) when I was younger but my tastes have mellowed out. When DRI played here on their 40th anniversary tour here a couple of years ago, I was blown away by the opening act touring with them. Intent is a boring name IMO that doesn't do them justice. They're on Bandcamp. Any Slayer fan should check them out

Yeah I'm almost 60 and it was similar back during the cold War. There was no online echo chamber to amplify it back then though

True but we can't be sure. Best not to let your guard down

Jailing a president is tough. We need to jail their enablers. No president acts alone

That's a pretty small job. You may get outrageous quotes because a contractor may not want to be bothered.
Materials according to the Home Depot website: EDIT sorry just realized you said 8ft high plus a gate This will raise the materials cost a bit but you get the idea.
5 8ft long vinyl fence panels 6ft high at $109 each = $545
6 8ft high vinyl fence posts at $39 each = $234
6 fence posts caps at $4 each =$24
6 bags fast setting concrete at $7 each =$42
Total $845 in materials Guessing 8hrs labor at $30/hr =$240 I'd estimate around $1,100 or so. Adjust for sales tax and labor costs in your area.
FYI if you want to learn basic Home owner DIY skills, this is a good place to start. It's a bit of work digging the holes but it's not rocket surgery.

Your life will be what you make of it. Fuck all the memes and the circle jerk pity party that is the internet. To be, or not to be, that is the question.

I don't listen to diet advice from my doctor, why would I listen to a dog?

The headline doesn't do justice. This creep stole millions in funds from EMS and the Fire Department and donated thousands of it to Republican candidates. He was GOP party county chairman and recieved an appointment from Mike Pence and was also his guest at the Trump inauguration. It goes downhill from there

Watch the video on YouTube. Some in the crowd seemed to be trying to get riled up but besides YMCA the music was very mellow, very low energy. Do not trade mix tapes with Donald Trump

I've heard this for my whole life. Oil runs out in X years, until they develop affordable ways to dig deeper and get at more

Computer nerd me loved dialing up BBS's on my TRS-80 CoCo with 16k RAM. My parents on the other hand hated getting the phone bill. 30 cents a minute in 1980 dollars was steep
