    I know almost nothing about structural engineering, but I'm curious how long that roof will last and how much snow it can hold. Or does the snow just melt off because the material has almost no R-value, and the building will cost millions of dollars per year to heat?
    Also, as minimal as it was, the old conservatory was free to visit. I'm sure you'll be looking at a minimum of $15-20 a person to experience this monument to excess.

    I was just pointing out that he was criticizing someone for making middle-class tax cuts a priority, and then complaining that high-income and corporate tax cuts were pushing the tax burden on to the middle class. 
    I don't mind paying taxes if the government is using them responsibly, but it's all the inefficiency and waste that really grinds my gears.

    Faith Ekakitie has made me wary of college guys who couldn't earn a starting roster spot. Boateng at Fresno State is another this year. Maybe they'll prove me wrong, but I'm not raising anyone's stock just because they went to school in the US.

    On the other hand, they could also start a new business and then have the government bail it out when they threaten to move or close down.

    The Raiders have three first-round picks this year, plus Antonio Brown and Derek Carr, plus the Packers are the Packers. I think there would definitely be some people who would want to check that game out.

    Cut too thick as well, and not double-fried (or not fried long enough).

    Geez, if the Tavern is considered to be a better option, it must have been really bad.

    Guy threw for over 450 yards twice at IGF versus the Bisons. Walters should draft him based solely on how well he plays in our stadium.

    Check out what happened in the past when the top earners were taxed at 70%+. Even the Trudeau Liberals haven't gone there, and Canada would gladly accept all the tax dodging musicians and actors who want to come here, knowing that their windows of opportunity for high earning could be very limited. Go ask Roger Moore or the Rolling Stones about how they liked living in the UK in the 70s (hint: they moved away).

    It was a shame last summer to not be able to take drinks from The Common to an outdoor seating area. The existing restaurants that have patio space there are really crappy.

    So you'd rather that in get light at 4 am and dark at 8 or 9 pm in the summer? I'd prefer if we stayed on DST year-round so it's not dark by 5 pm in the winter..

    Well, based on the number of times the federal NDP have held power, I'd say the system works!
