    I always back into spaces. Come at me.
    Same here.

    I think it's safer when pulling out of the parking lot too.
    Absolutely. Also often it's easier to maneuver your vehicle going backwards into a space.

    Backing into a spot makes sense from a litigious standpoint, otherwise....no, go ahead and do your 3 point turn in a busy grocery parking lot ya freaks.

    Yeah this is a pretty quick, visual, and concise way of arguing against voting for Lamb:

    There would have to be a fairly odd series of events for me to vote for Lamb.

    I mean, as far as I can tell, voting against his party contributed to his almost losing reelection in 2020. Contrast with progressive firebrand Katie Porter, in a CA purple district, who actually expanded her margin of victory from 2018 to 2020.

    To the mods: I know we are talking politics but these are local issues to Philly and Pennsylvania and we don't want to put up with the trolls that roam around A Moving Train.

    Katie Porter is a rock star.  I love when she gets out her chalkboard and takes down these big company executives. 

    and Jeff Ament is going to be Preston and Steve tomorrow.  I think it said at 10:00.  I imagine to talk about this Afghanistan campaign but hopefully at least a hint at what is going on with tour.

    (knock on wood, and fingers crossed)The mods have always been pretty good with those of us who hash it out in this space, and for that I'm grateful that they "get it", at least presumably.

    Hear hear my man.

    Matt Cameron had some promising stuff on future PJ music, talking in one of those quick PJ Radio things - we're expanding our instrumentation, stuff like that.

    Unless you're James Bond or Jason Bourne and need to escape, no reason to back into a spot

    I don't back into a spot unless there is a reason.
    I do "drive through" whenever I have the option so that I avoid the need to back out, when I go to leave.

    Doesn't bother me

    What does bother me is when people take up two spots because they are weak sauce, or because they think they need to protect their car.  Used to work with a guy years back to parked diagonally across  two spots in his Viper.  It got keyed.  I told him he earned that, but it sucked that someone  did that to him.

    New Eddie single's pretty decent. Way better than that Haves song.

    Just listened to it - sounds like two songs between the beginning and end, like the 2nd part better.

    Conor Lamb Campaign attacking Fetterman for "talking about Sheetz vs. Wawa" - they are really flailing. Anyone ever been to a Sheetz? I haven't.

    Sheetz's are, dare I say it....good...goddamnit. But I mean it's fluff dumb jokey stuff that Fetterman's campaign has been doing.

    I saw Dave McCormick get on the tee vee on Good Day this morning. I wonder how that happened, I know these politicians get up in arms that there's some kind of fair process of getting in front of potential voters.
