If you’re drunk, I could see a reason to not stop. You’re going to get slapped with vehicular homicide anyways, might as well try to get away with it.

I don't know, maybe to try to save the life/lives that you may be responsible for ending? Lending immediate first aid and calling for an ambulance immediately may be the difference between life and death.

I have a buddy who was riding his bike home on a county road. He had it lit up like a Christmas tree including extremely bright headlights and top of the line taillights that could clearly be seen for well over a mile. He was hit by a vehicle who drove off leaving him to die. He would have likely died too, except a driver saw something out of the ordinary from a nearby crossroad and turned around and came back to investigate. He suffured irreparable skeletal, ligament, muscular, and brain injuries but is lucky to be alive.

I just cannot see leaving someone to die just because you are scared that you might have to spend some time in jail for your actions. It is someone's life and you are responsible. How could you live with yourself if you just drive away?

69 year round (nice) when I have it on.

Many days of just open windows Spring - Fall though.

There are few things I hate worse than dressing for the weather in shorts and a t-shirt or polo and then walking into a store or restaurant that has the cooling turned down to mid 60s and the vents blowing right on your table. I want to be able to dress for the weather not dress in a sweatshirt in 80+ degree weather.

Like BC I subscribe to the policy of trying to acclimate to the outside conditions. We try to use natural morning and overnight cooling where possible. When we run the air it is usually at 78 with the ceiling fan (dining room and upstairs bedrooms have ceiling fans) and/or an auxilary fan in most rooms. I also run a dehumidifier on my lowest level (4 level split) to try to keep the humidity at or below 50%. We eat dinner on the deck a lot during the summer and even some weekend breakfast/brunches/lunches - that is until the skeeters get bad.

In the winter it is usually 68-70 during the day with 64 at night.

Apparently the people struck were waiting for the bus and the vehicle drove up onto the sidewalk. The person probably has lots of reasons for leaving the scene. None of which are good.

It wasn’t a hit and run. It was 2 people on a walk, not waiting for the bus. Sounds like the person who hit them was older who hit the gas instead of the brake and hopped the curb.

One sarcastic response on X. But, I like his footwork a lot. He pivots his man really well. Count me more excited than most.

I see two things there that encourage me:

• Wrestler so he understands how to use his hands and leverage.
• Shot and discus (State qualifier) so he probably has excellent footwork.

Son's port stopped working about a year ago. Luckily he really only needed it for charging so we got wireless charging stations and a few magnet batteries that charge wirelessly to keep him going. He was 16 and didn't need a brand new phone!

I'm getting the cheapest iPhone I can get that isn't an SE.

Relegation every year would be dumb but you could have it every other year like football does for classifications now. I wouldn't be opposed to stretching it out a year or two more than that. Those first couple of cycles could be pretty staggering though with a team moving up or down a couple classes wouldn't surprise me.

They do every other year for football because it allows each school to host that school one time and evens out the travel. You have a long road trip one season, then the other school makes it the next year. No reason they could not do the same for the other sports, as long as they kept in mind to play the further distance schools on Friday and Saturday if possible. It could create problems with rivalries that have been played for decades being eliminated but something could and should be done to fix the problem.

I don't remember anymore. CW should know he was big on that hype train for a while.

Yeah I just remember there seemed to be some murky stuff going on to basically cover his tracks but I didn't follow it real close.
