Wow, I never knew that. We were at Laurel Caverns last year but it was a very foggy morning so we couldn’t see that. If we ever go again and it’s clear out I’m going to look for it.

It’s a bad design, and it should be fixed when the airport reconstruction is finished. Still no excuse for blocking traffic and blocking people in.

> Pittsburgh has way, way too many local restaurants (and other businesses) that make themselves needlessly difficult to patronize.
It's like the "only in the mood for Chick-Fil-A on Sunday" problem, but for half the week! I'll try to eat somewhere and find that they won't be open for 3 more days, or they are open, but only for dinner and I need lunch. Or vice versa. Eventually I lose all interest and quit trying.
And then there are the times where all the stars align, I call in an order, and they act like I'm crazy for trying to buy something that doesn't exist. Because their menu on their website is 6 years out of date, and I'm supposed to just magically know that.

I know both the muffin man AND the muffler man!
(These guys did a video about the muffler men around here, the Uniontown one is about a minute in. If anyone is wondering what I'm talking about.)

Police shouldn't brutalize someone, ever. By definition, that is wrong and unnecessary. Violent action must be a last resort. And of course, the law more or less says that - but after a few hundred Trayvon Martins and Breanna Taylors et. al., one should understand that's not a realistic representation of what happens. Our cops kill extremely frequently, and it's not on the victims most of the time.
Trying to "get away" is not cause for brutalizing, beating, murdering, or otherwise treating a suspect cruelly and unusually. They're innocent by definition until proven otherwise, though conservatives love to accidentally forget constitutional rights like that one.
Paid leave, a promotion or a job at another department, that about sums up the consequences for 95% of police killings. Do you think that's an okay consequence for murdering the wrong person in their bed by accident - a promotion? A new job? They had to drag Chauvin kicking and screaming through the courts for him to see justice; if that's not emblematic to you I don't know what to say. I genuinely hope you're a troll and not actually this clueless

Well, yeah, safety goes hand in hand with handling guns, I don't consider that to be political

Reply to comment by 1MagnificentMagnolia in PA Homestead Exclusion Tax Credit by susweca2
Taxes are based off the assessment which is based off sales price so what others are paying in your neighborhood doesn’t really work against you.
By abusing the homestead exemption they’re taking money away from the local government which funds resources you might use like firemen, roads, etc.

When I got my Taurus Judge, it was listed as a Concealed Carry Weapon. Mine has the 6-inch barrel and weighs like 5 lbs.

I overheard the owner saying they make more profit on their "wine-bar-only" nights than dinner nights for, like, 1% of the work. Eek!

Reply to Why not just have all parking fare terminals include PRT ConnectCard terminals? by cerebrospynal
FYI in case you didn't know, you can use the Transit app as well as others to pay your fare with your phone - no ConnectCard required. Of course, there's many situations where that might not be possible or desirable.
