re: Why was ALL of the Media in Tampa Bay pre Hurricane?

the idiocy in the OP…you do realize that this storm approached at an angle nearly parallel to the west coast of Florida, where small deviations in approach heading led to huge distances on the FL gulf coast, unlike the perpendicular approaches you typically see in La/Texas/Mississippi…geometry peop...

It’s only bearable if you do the Express pass; They vacate one side of the park at around 5:00 or 6:00 PM to transition from normal park ops to set up for HHN admission/tickets. If you’re there early evening, the normal lines are not too bad but after dark the Express pass is a necessity…IMO...

re: The National Media in a frenzy over CBK
Posted by deathvalley1 on 12/4/21 at 8:27 pm
This is classic MSM leveraging ND’s national following to create emotional polarity to generate clicks and views. It’s a model that works well on political topics that also translates to the sports fan following in some cases. ND’s widespread love/hate is the reason why you see so much churn on CBK ...
re: LtCol Scheller sentenced
Posted by deathvalley1 on 10/15/21 at 9:28 pm
Correct, he will have time in grade…However when an officer applies for retirement, a records review is conducted to see if there is any judicial or non judicial (Art 15, LoR, etc) punishments against that officer during his time in that grade, if so, an OGD is mandated and a General Officer in his ...

Posted by deathvalley1 on 10/15/21 at 3:08 pm
Yea $5K is roughly 50% of an O-5s monthly salary before housing allowance is added. He’ll reach his 20 but when he applies for retirement, the LoR will trigger an Officer Grade Determination where it will likely be reviewed/determined that he be retired as a Major…he’ll retire with his pension but a...

re: Universal studios question
Posted by deathvalley1 on 6/13/21 at 11:30 pm
When an attraction gets too stacked, they will transition from traditional line to a virtual line as needed. At that point, the app will reflect it and you can get a time slot. They really only use virtual lines for a handful of rides. Otherwise it’s either Express or normal. ...

Intent is to take a 2-week trip to an area that will afford an opportunity to experience multiple light- moderate difficulty day hikes, return late in the day, rest in lodging, hit another trail head the next day, and repeat. Will have a rental car to bounce around somewhat but wanted to solicit inp...

You probably already know this but N Captiva is accessed by boat only, South Captiva is connected to Sanibel. N Captiva is absolutely wonderful, no cars (every place has a golf cart) to get around. Couple of restaurants, nothing amazing but they're pretty good. The grocery store on the island is ext...
