Reply to Is there any sort of tiki subculture in the Philadelphia area ? Not seeing much of any tiki bars on a Google search by CVM525
R+D in Fishtown has some good tiki or tiki-style drinks, but it's not a tiki bar.

How did you come into possession of a shofar? That's a pretty niche thing to just randomly show up in ones possession, haha

Everyone on my block was pissed they had to move their cars for essentially no reason, even more when they ticketed and still never swept the street.

As much as the headline goofs on him, in the article he seems like a class act and a cool dude.

Reply to DA Larry Krasner impeachment trial: Pa. Senate indefinitely postpones, future now unclear by SweetJibbaJams
FTA:
>The trial had been scheduled to begin Jan. 18 after the Republican-led House voted largely along party lines last fall to impeach Krasner, a Democrat, for what they called his dereliction of duty.
>But following a Commonwealth Court decision last month to dismiss the articles of impeachment as legally insufficient, the future of the trial — and the timeline for when, or even if, it resumes — remains uncertain.
>The postponement, which the Senate unanimously approved, comes after the Commonwealth Court issued an order dismissing the seven articles of impeachment against Krasner on Dec. 30, saying none met the required legal standard of “misbehavior in office.”

Nothing too extreme, something that says "Leather Daddy", got it.
I was curious about your question, and i feel like places that specialize in leather are pretty scarce now. Looks like Dude's boutique on south street might be a place to check out.
Other than that, my first instinct would be to check out Macy's or a similar department store.

Not sure that I have an answer regardless, but what kind of leather jacket? Motorcycle jacket? Bomber? Duster?

Yeah, it's not perfect cinema but it's enjoyable and entertaining. I do love Craig's comically overdone accent.

For sure. This American Life (i think) did an interesting piece on the guy who was lambasted for doing a rhino hunt a few years ago. The details that were omitted from the general media was that when rhinos get too old, they try to kill younger more virile rhinos and auctioning off the hunt was a way for the local African government to raise conservation funds and take care of this rhino that was a threat to the rest of the endangered population.
Not saying all big game hunting is ethical, but hunting and conservation is an issue that it would benefit more people to be knowledgeable about, in my opinion.

I really enjoyed Glass Onion, and just watched it last night. I hope they keep making those movies, because they are a lot of fun.

I love New Delhi at 40th and Walnut. Haven't been to their buffet in a minute though, but their food is my favorite takeout.

I couldn't find the F&S article, but found a similar WHYY piece
I'm not anti-meat consumption by any metric, but I would like to go hunting at some point to at least have a better understanding about where my food comes from and what it would mean to get my own meat.

Yeah, i'd definitely recommend plastic that will seal around the edges of the window to prevent the drafts.

Yeah, that can be some serious sticker shock. It's not glamorous, but putting heat wrap over the windows can make a big difference. and buy lots of blankets.

That's not unheard of for older houses, especially if you are on a lower floor of the building.

Probably around 1776, when we wrote a diss letter to our British overlords.

It finally got me - came down with COVID last week and I'm finally starting to feel human again. My sense of taste and smell is slowly returning. On a flavor scale from distilled water to Mountain Dew Baja Blast, i'm at about a Lime LaCroix. 0/10 recommend the whole experience.
Hope everyone had a fun and safe New Years, and here's to a good 2023 🥂

It's not required for the driving test, unless things have changed dramatically. I took mine in the northeast, and i basically drove around the block and parallel parked - i can't imagine it has changed that much, although it has been a while....
Driving on the highway is definitely intimidating, and worth having at least a friend or family member help you go for the ride to build up a little confidence at some point, but I wouldn't say it needs to be before your test.
Honestly, driving in peak rush hour isn't that difficult either, since traffic isn't moving. It's really the times right before/after when there is a lot of traffic moving at high speed that highway driving can get a little hairy, so just plan your trips accordingly until you get more comfortable.

I can actually remember some of my first times driving on the highway, and how nervous I was. I wouldn't blame someone for wanting specific instruction
