Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PA452: I always pick Sheetz over Getgo simply because I don't like Giant Eagle as a company. But then again Sheetz is usually my go-to anyway. The super woke leftist woman who was the CEO of giant eagle is no longer Some guy who started as as bag boy I for them - I think - is the new CEO. He is moving the company HQ to cranberry twp to get away from allegheny county taxes. |

They were also real mask nazis during COVID in my area. |

I just shoveled somewhere between two and three inches of snow.
As I shoveled I was rained on. Accuweather.com says it's 34º outside (as I type this), so I don't think I'll get more accumulation. Naughty winds out there. Accuweather says it feels like 20º. Believe it. |

Just made it in to work, nightmare drive. Settled in for a long night at the power plant.
78 was terrible, no f'n plows out and single lane. Secondary roads (local plowing) a little better. Retards on the roads, one idiot went in a ditch leaving a mcdonalds and lost it right in front of me. Seriously, stay home and off the roads if you don't need to. |

We need you to contact your State Representative and urge them to kill these bills in committee!

Here are the anti-gun bills: HB 335: a ban on bump stocks HB 336: a ban on semi-auto firearms HB 483: creates a taxpayer-funded “Gun Violence Task Force” to further the anti-gun narrative HB 777: restricts privately made firearms HB 1157: adds “mental health” gun control measures; giving a psychiatrist the ability to take away gun rights without due process HB 1190: bans homemade firearms HB 1859: increases penalties for having a weapon under disability These bills will be heard in committee tomorrow, but there is a good chance they will get a full floor vote in the House if they’re not stopped immediately In my best Forest Gump voice.

The way the Committee's are stacked now, this will definitely make it to the floor. Not sure how that will work out, since the house is pretty much split 50/50 right now, because i think the Democrats are short one seat last i heard, and, this proposed Bill will never see the light of day in the Senate. For now. Thank God.

Yes from what I remember Chairman Kaufman saif so long as he held the seat PA would see NO NEW
gun control laws. Problem is that was around 2014 or 15 and no has the position forever. Incedently that was a email from GOA kinda late yesterday. So either it was being snu k,through last minute or they were behind on their info. Kinda saw it as a non-event so didn't spam it all over the net. But I also didn't see it anywhere else but the GOA email either. |

The snowdrops are about to bloom in Warren.
Have any areas of the state had a real winter? We're well below 50% of our average snowfall at my house. Two years in a row like this. The year before that was low, as well, but not like this year or last year. |
