[UC] Hitchhikers guide list meetup ---

2007-03-16 Thread Kyle Cassidy
Hey kids -- I don't know about y'alls, but I think we'll have a better turnout if we postpone the list meetup hitchhikers thing. There were about twenty people planning on going, from what I gathered (more always seem to show up), and I'd hate for half of them to stay home because of the weather

speculation. If you're going to complain people are speculating, stop asking people who don't know. Nobody on this list can do ANYTHING BUT speculate about this. Nobody on this list owns the liquor store and nobody on this list is the regional manager for Rite Aid. Call the PLCB and ask

Why not call whomever owns and runs the store and ask them why or if they want to move? -- they can answer your question, nobody here can, we can only speculate. Find out the facts and let us know what they say. As we've seen, everybody speculating gets us nowhere. We have a tendancy on this

I don't know if it's still the case, but walking along 48th between locust and spruce during school hours used to be an abuse gauntlet of epic proportions. At any given time there would be several kids hanging out of different windows yelling at me as I walked past. I did that maybe twice and then

I think they both deserve more respect that you, apparently, are willing to give them. And the fact that you're using the argument -- they gave one zoning variance, why not another -- is an indication of one of the problems associated with this sort of slippery slope. Why not an abortion
