Is it like seatbelt laws when they first went into effect? You couldn't be pulled over just for not having your belt on, but if you got pulled over for (say) speeding they could tack on a fine for the belt.

Lots of SF has simply not recovered from the pandemic, many shuttered businesses. So bear that in mind. Japantown is near Hayes Valley and Civic Center. If we were younger and dogless and interested in apartment renting we probably would've wanted to live near there. So many excellent restaurants. P...

Fun story, I just learned a couple months ago that the original plan was to build the new stadium in the shadow of Candlestick, but the city was being difficult. So they took their stadium plan - including the physical design that was meant to offer curated views of downtown SF - and moved it to rec...

I took my date to Red Lobster on senior prom night. That is probably the last time I've been to Red Lobster. Mrs Tif likes Chili's for some reason, but we haven't been to one in probably 5 or 6 years. I used to work near both an Olive Garden and an Outback, so those were common 'workplace celebratio...

I'm also gonna go out on a limb and say Harrison Butker's beliefs are probably a lot closer to the average of the NFL than to society in general. Very Jesusy bunch, football people.

You seem to be forgetting that one trip to EPCOT means a trip to Mexico, Norway, China, Japan, Germany, Italy, Canada, Morocco, France, and the UK.
I was gonna say, EPCOT is the first place I had Japanese food.

Roger Corman, Giant of Independent Filmmaking, Dies at 98

So many people you probably never even realized got their start on one of his sets. The movies weren't always what you'd call 'good' but he was certainly one of the most important figures in the history of the movie business.

The Captain Jack intro is pure perfection.

That movie punched so far above its weight. From an Oscar nominated pirate to an iconic score written sort of by accident. It's just a great ride.

Taking the kids to King's Island and Cincinnati zoo end of month. Anyone ever been to Cincy zoo and got tips (outside of don't go to Ohio or Cincy)?
Make a lot of Harambe comments, maybe wear a t-shirt. I'm sure they get a kick out of that.
