Samson's Flow Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 Amazon selected NYC and DC as the two locations for HQ2. The economic incentive packages are pretty sizable. May make it tough to get WNY funding since the focus for NY will be on infrastructure to support Amazon. https://blog.aboutamazon.com/company-news/amazon-selects-new-york-city-and-northern-virginia-for-new-headquarters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the NYS package looks especially painful for us tax payers. That said DC was always going to be a favored choice.

ubkev Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Been off for the last 5 days. I just shaved today for the first time in the 5 days and I left the moustache. Now I've got my hair slicked straight back and I'm walking around in my bathrobe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wallet and fob are in the exact same place 30 seconds after I get home every day. Am I the only one? My wife and brother on the other hand seemingly throw their most treasures items into the wind as soon as they arrive at their domiciles, hoping in the haste that is always the case when they need to leave they might stumble upon the mystery they left those items in. I've contemplated divorce over this issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve smoked a lot of grass along the way and learned a trick or two. I didn't need a boat load of weed (which sounds so good right now as I've abstained for...reasons) to make me do it. It just seemed like the right thing to do. Like putting my seat belt on, every. single. time. I don't even think about it anymore, yet I still see people struggle with the concept. Save the police some work so they don't have to pick your body parts outta your chasis, put your GD seatbelt on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabel79 Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 This reminds me, I have no idea where my work keys (which I keep separate from my house/car keys for... reasons) are. Going to need them tomorrow... hmmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampD Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 Yesterday, my wife and I wanted breakfast, so,… we went and got breakfast. Apparently that's a thing people do. On a related note, I left my phone in the bathroom at work. I've never lost a wallet or keys and have never done that before. Luckily, someone turned it in.
