  1. Its a completely different discussion. if "attendance dips in the fall" is the best argument...well, it should be 99% in favour of re-opening. But, again, if it will be too cold for anyone to use (which is absurd for people going to work/shopping/destinations), then it should placate the people who think it will lead to a billion pedestrians clogging traffic.
  2. Rumour has it Star Trek is looking at January to begin filming (which must mean they are pretty far along in every other regard) and looking to cast two female lead villains. And Quinto said he thinks they'd shoot Trek 5 shortly after (Tarantino's) and he thinks that might be it for that group of actors.
  3. Ummm Skywalks are convenient. Who is arguing that? Where is the argument to close all skywalks? it sounds like you're arguing that for the majority of the year, pedestrians wont cross at P&M. So no issue then right? Have you changed your vote??
  4. I believe this is untrue. I dont count cars but I've seen other intersections used as examples in the 90% range. Not as many, of course, but certainly it doesnt result in "no other intersection even close". We're talking about 2 minutes of commute, for one hour, twice a day Monday to Friday. Its not gridlock 24/7. People have to wrap their brains around that fact. Think about it with an open mind. I thought about this as I, thankfully, whizzed down the turning lane on Kenaston this morning passed gridlock traffic that was seemingly not moving with all the lights green...and how people can cross, no problem at Kenaston & McGill as well as every other intersection. I think about it on the few times I head to Transcona and the massive intersection that is Regent & Lag and how people cross without it being carnage. The "keep it closed" people, with all due respect, I honestly think they've heard the reasons and havent applied critical thought to it. Even if it was bad traffic (like more than the 2 minutes claimed), its such a short period of time. Go out to P&M at 9PM, 10PM and there arent traffic issues. Its a short window. That might inconvenience some people but its a minority of people. The few drivers that go through there during rush hour, if they voted against re-opening, I'd disagree but at least understand but if thats all that voted that way, it would pass easily. A lot of people are worked up that have zero stake whatsoever. P&M is a concrete jungle of embarrassment.
  5. Yup and actually its an ill-informed opinion since people here make the "joke" that we're freezing 7 months out of the year which just isnt true. Ill go dig up the stats if I have to but its somethign like 200 or 250 days above -5 or -10 or something. But even if the remaining cold day, with the wind at that corner are an issue, the "keep it closed" folks should be thrilled because on days like that a lot of people will retreat to the underground and then the 2 minutes of extra commute will be even less!
  6. The best part is, he has some tweets from the past (he always does) that accuse or predict Obama of starting a war with Iran to win re-election or otherwise cause a distraction. So you know that "strategy" is at the forefront of his mind. Funny how he doesnt talk remotely that tough with the country that actually attacked the US...but hey, "Economy" and we love Trump.
  7. Boy is he desperate to change the headlines
  8. The only problem with that is, yes jets can trade him anywhere they want. But acquiring teams see two contract issues and won’t give up the farm for a guy with one year contract and one year RFA they will want to talk to him about an extension. And if trouba has a short list it limits the jets leverage. But chewy has done well in past trades
  9. Haven’t seen it anywhere else. It was Eklund big lead story all day yesterday. Not sure Islanders make good trade partners anyway.
  10. Saw that on Eklund but last time I posted an Eklund rumour you were very dismissive lol
  11. Something to remember if Trump is impeached. The responsible king would be for trump to call for calm and peace. But you know he won’t. It could get bad.
  12. Can’t move it without nhl permission regardless of ownership.
  13. Speculated about this when they called up all the women for the RR
  14. It’s GEo blocked but that one I posted was region free.
  15. Enterprise is the more respected ship. It’s a heavy battle cruiser. Discovery is a science vessel. They even made a remark in season one that if Tilly wants to be captain she should try to get onto a constitution class ship (like enterprise).
  16. Ohhhhhh boy
  17. I only listened to it when I'd drive the gf to her office job DT (she's not there anymore). And it wasnt a lot of music. But it was routinely funny and always positive. I remember when Ace first saw the Two Girls One Cup reaction videos on youtube and ofcourse, you didnt know what they were reacting to and he spent all morning wondering it could be...hahahahaha And the next day he was like yeah...so...dont watch it. Now I listen to 1290 in the morning and if Im with the GF, Sirius radio. The jeep I bought last year was the first car with satellite radio AND could stream my phone so sometimes Ill throw on a podcast too. But Ace is good peeps and a clear opposite to Wheeler's nonsense.
  18. thank goodness Stephanie created women. It’s an all women’s PPV.
