Grandma Utz.

Back when I was living in Pittsburgh and Grandma Utz wasn’t available at my local shop, I had a dream where I found a giant person-sized bag of Grandma Utz.

Drove past there 1.5 hours ago. I could not see much, but it did not look good.

Multiple ambulances arriving and leaving.

My family has relatives buried up there. My grandmother always liked to remind people that the fire was under the Protestant cemetery, and not the Catholic one.

Looked in to that. She’s 1 year, 1 month too young.

Thanks a lot! This is only a quick trip (no pun intended) for a theater show Saturday night, with a small bit of walking around Sunday morning so I was figuring the QuickTrip/paying cash would be the best option. And your explanation matched what I was reading.

I guess I still don’t quite understand how the exit Quick Trip system is regulated. Couldn’t people just lie about what zone they started in and pay the lower fare?

And I do want to come back at some point in the future. Other than grade school field trips to the Liberty Bell and Franklin Institute, (and driving through on the way to the shore) I’ve never gotten to explore Philly.

Thanks for the commiseration. I know how snarky that sub can be, so I tried to tailor my post to show - yes! I did do my research! No, I still don’t understand how it works.

And r/AskPhilly has been dead for 10 months now, so I doubted they would be any help.

Check if Summit View on 183 has any availability

Technically, yes.

However, some restaurants/bars may have an internal policy where they won’t serve anybody with a Junior license, no matter that it says you are over 21.

My dad used to be an Island Steward. A few times a year, spring through fall, he’d go out to his assigned islands, clean them up and just make sure they were in good shape.

For the interview: (is this in person or virtual?)

Each candidate will be asked the same set of questions. You should be given a sheet of paper with the questions written on it a few minutes before the interview starts. Bring a pen, and jot down any notes for things you want to be sure to highlight.

You’ll be before an interview panel of usually 3 people. Sometimes one person asks all of the questions, sometimes they rotate. You will see your panel members taking notes. The panel really won’t be able to deviate from the set question list(such as asking you to expand on your answers) so you want to be sure to answer as fully and completely as you are able.

But I’m hungry now!!!!!!

I am so ready for my pork and mashed potatoes.

T-minus 2 hours, 13 minutes.

I’m tangentially linked to a legal case involving Luzerne County. It’s been going on since 2018.

From my understanding, the lawyers involved have reached multiple settlement agreements, with the only thing needed to make the whole case go away is for the County Board to approve the settlement. Every single time they’ve either not even put it on the schedule to be voted on, or rejected the settlement.

The county has probably spent more $ on legal fees than the settlement.

At least that’s what they said during the PA Congress hearings when it was getting approved.

My agency actually participated in those hearings. We basically said, “this is not going to work like you think it will due to X, Y, and Z.” We were patted on the head and told you don’t know anything. We were right.

Voter #3 this morning

I guess anybody who sends their kids to Catholic School is also “privileged, exclusive, elite”. Right Mastriano?

I’m sure Mastriano thinks that’s somehow different.
