    The film will follow, according to its synopsis, “10-year-old Prince Adam who crashed to Earth in a spaceship and was separated from his magical Power Sword—the only link to his home on Eternia. After tracking it down almost two decades later, Prince Adam is whisked back across space to defend his home planet against the evil forces of Skeletor. But to defeat such a powerful villain, Prince Adam will first need to uncover the mysteries of his past and become He-Man: the most powerful man in the Universe

    Man I hope this turns out better than it sounds. Really hoping we get He-Man not they/them man

    We haven’t been in a few years and honestly don’t feel like we’ve missed much based on what I remember of our last visit.

    Im not surprised, and I think we’ll see this happen to more places as time goes on. We don’t eat out nearly as often as we used to and when we do, we try our best to go to someplace that’s locally owned and operated. 

    Yeah I don't frequent to many chain restaurants when we do its mostly Texas Roadhouse. Surprisingly this time I got the red lobster to go and it was better than when we ate in person last year when we went. I also skipped getting lobster because last time it just didn't taste the greatest. This time just went with one of the pick 4 shrimp and it was great.

    You don’t like maple syrup on your breakfast sausage?!?

    I was obviously adopted. Or you were.

    Must be you were the adopted one. Breakfast sausage is gross and even more so when dipped in syrup

  4. I highly recommend the cheese steak and their mac and cheese both are delicious. I am not sure how I feel about air-fried fish

    I remember this stuff from my 6th grade year at Beecher ( also my first year in public school ). It wasn't great, but for some reason we went nuts when the lady came out and yelled "EXTRAS!!!" which meant you could have more for free.

    I remember at Beecher it came in the little metal rectangle pans and you would get the cheese that would get stuck to the edges and have to scrape it off so delicious.

    Do you suppose it was to preemptively “defend” against igner’t yankees who'd think it’s misspelled could be inclined to criticise?

    Criticise....See what I did there? Right cheeky of me!

     

    Exactly!!  Look at me peasants I use British words and sip my tea with pinky out.

    Turn the excessively large parking lots into an urban farm, or community garden. Convert most of the  shops into living spaces, some with second storeys. (British spelling). Turn one of the big stores into a convention center.

    I find it hilarious she pointed out the fact that she was using British spelling

    i would guess that 3.5 million( up a cool mill in a year) is ridiculous to spend on a clock that wont even chime? likely also it is symbolic of past/current administrations that dont seem to care to keep up on upkeep/maintenance issues in order to make themselves look good by "saving money", though i dont think the pool is anywhere near worth investing in at this point, it would have seen more use by the public than the clock tower will

     

    Just makes you wonder whose buddy is fixing the clock tower so many better ways to spend that 3.5 million. Most people can only read digital clocks these days anyways

    Yes. I am un-American. I find very little to like about this country.

    If you don't like it then why are you still here? Plenty of other countries you can go to so don't let the doorknob hit you where the good lord split you!!

    How many flakes from Ithaca do you know?  And what is wrong with being "an eccentric, or unconventional person"? The dictionary definition also includes unreliable. owever, that is not applicable. If Jim says he will do something, he will.

    I think - if you look at the numbers - that he has much more than a snowball's chance of winning.

    Well I lived in Ithaca for 30 years so just a couple. Lets see those numbers

    I do seriously believe it.  I heard a lot while campaigning, and I learned a lot during the very thorough public input period concerning police reform. The police are increasingly militarized, and they are trained to use force if they feel threatened. (The Washington post tracked 8,727 fatal police shootings since 2015). It's easy to say, well, yes, but that doesn't apply to our police. Perhaps not.  But they hunt in packs (Three officers, each a a separate car to respond to a day time call in a respectable neighborhood), and they target the poor and the POCs.

    At the end of the day I wonder whether we are getting our money's worth. The police cost the City almost one-third of its budget. Are we getting a good return on investment?

    I can't believe you just said that. 

    If the police were in fact good shots, they would shoot to disable, not to kill.  But the torso is a much easier target than an arm or a leg.

    I know that if I was shot in the arm, I would drop my weapon; f I were shot in the leg I would drop to the ground.

    The bigger point is that police are very quick to assume that the person they are confronting is trying to kill them.

    Your breath must smell horrible with all this shit you spew from it.  You and the candidate you represent need to crawl back under the rock you came from.

    Are SROs armed? Silly question. There is no need for any cop interacting directly with the public to be armed (and primed to shoot first and ask questions later.) Few members of the public will want to approach an officer who might shoot them before hearing what they have to say.

    If they are a good shot there will be no need for questions.

  13. Those trees really would not be much work to remove the city should really fund the whole project and renew this wonderful historic site. 5-6 good working volunteers could hammer out most of the work in a weekend or 2. The city really needs to get its priorities straight!!

    I recently got quite an education as to why the fair has shrunk in size. ( I was told 11 rides this year compared to 27 in 2019 ). 

    In 2021, James E. Strates apparently couldn't do the fair due to a lack of manpower. So Wheelock was booked as the ride provider, with the understanding that Strates would return in 2022. However this didn't happen, so Wheelock would again do it, with Strates adding 3 of their rides to Wheelock's. That gave a total of 16 rides for that year. 

    Allegedly this past spring a five year contract was signed with Wheelock. They brought a total of 12 rides, one of which didn't pass inspection and could not be used. Strates was not involved in any way for unspecified reasons. 

    Don Wainright, who serves on the Executive Board of the Chemung County Agricultural Society appeared on "Frankly Speaking" about some of the challenges facing those working to put on a county fair: https://fb.watch/moQ5Eh15aM/
