  1. I was at this quagmire of a game in January of 1983... The AFC Championship game between The Dolphins and The Jets at the Orange Bowl. Orange Bowel was more like it. Entering the stadium we were slogging through mud and ankle deep puddles. It was one of those on and off all day, sloppy, soggy Florida rain days. Thankfully we brought our raincoats. We sat directly behind the goal posts in the western end zone where the only two TD's of the game were scored. Fun times.
  2. They're expanding the upper deck too, for whatever that's worth. I think there might be some additional amenities or upgrades to existing ones.
  3. Why aren't the Democrats and the media holding her feet to the fire? At least make an issue out of it despite any stonewalling or refusal to cooperate by her. Get it out there.
  4. "Build it and they will come" ....?
  5. Regular old senseless gibberish is one thing, but senseless gibberish about bowel movements is too much for me to stomach... And that is ALL they fear. The idea that millions of Americans could be left with no insurance or healthcare means absolutely nothing to them.
  6. The thing about AI that I am really enjoying, is how easy it has made it to debunk the lies of people who habitually post them. Like you and your constant stream of lies, for instance. I've asked you this before but you never answer... if you know how easy it has become to call you on your BS, why do you persist??? You keep on implying that you're doing it for the good of the forum by keeping the post count up, but I'm just not buying it. .
  7. The Repugs aren't dumb. Anything that's unpopular with John and Jane Q. Public, won't kick in until after the midterms. That's the way they operate. In the shady shade.
  8. Latest renderings for proposed new upgrade which would include an expanded upper deck. So.... just more lipstick on the ol' pig?
  9. Longtime Orlando diner closes amid challenging restaurant landscape. • Daybreak Diner in Orlando closes after 27 years. • Curry Ford West district has 150 businesses, including Michelin-rated restaurants. • Restaurants face challenges due to slim profit margins and inflation. • The Daybreak Diner restaurant in Orlando’s Curry Ford West neighborhood has shuttered its doors after nearly three decades. Daybreak Diner, located in an anchor space at 3335 Curry Ford Road, has been “closed for renovations” since as early as June 10. The diner, located in an endcap space at the Dover Shores Shopping Center at Curry Ford Road and S. Crystal Lake Drive, announced its closure in a June 24 Facebook post that read: “It is with great regret that I must bid farewell to all of our friends and family that we have established over the past 27 years. We are deeply grateful and thankful for all of you.” Curry Ford West Executive Director Stephanie Ziglar confirmed the closure to Orlando Business Journal. “We were given a little notice that there was potentially an issue, but weren’t given a whole lot of details." The diner, located at 3335 Curry Ford Road, has been “closed for renovations” since as early as June 10, according to its social media page. It is not yet known when the unit will be vacated. Efforts by OBJ to reach shopping center owner Homer Jamerson of Jamerson-Lawson Corp and the owners of Daybreak Diner were unsuccessful. Dover Shores, a 164,886-square-foot plaza built in 1958, is currently occupied by more than 15 businesses that include the popular Charlie’s Bakery & Creamery, Sun Thrift Antiques, Living Dead Comics, Clemons Produce, a pharmacy, laundry mat and post office, among others. “That’s a really established shopping center,” Ziglar said. “It's one of those things that’s got reliable landlords and [businesses] want those kinds of spaces.” Ziglar said she fielded calls from numerous restaurant and bar owners interested in the vacancy once the closure was announced. “We’ve got businesses that are always looking for new spaces to expand, especially when there's a second-generation kitchen. Those usually spark a significant amount of interest,” Ziglar said. Curry Ford West, which stretches four miles from Gaston Foster Road to Cloverlawn Avenue, has approximately 150 businesses in its district. Among those are Michelin-rated restaurants Papa Llama at 2840 Curry Ford Road and Smokemade Meats + Eats at 1400 S. Crystal Lake Drive. Pizza Bruno, at 3990 Curry Ford Road, is celebrating nine years in the district this summer. The closure comes at a challenging moment for restaurants. OBJ reported in April “restaurants often operate on surprisingly slim profit margins” as elevated costs of goods have been influenced by inflation, supply chain disruptions and volatile commodity prices. “It’s never been harder to scratch out a buck in this business,” said Greg Richie, executive chef at what was Soco Thornton Park. Richie announced Soco's closure after nearly 11 years on May 26. https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/news/2025/06/26/daybreak-diner-curry-ford-west-dover-shores-plaza.html?csrc=6398&link_source=ta_first_comment&taid=68626045475cef00017ab7ae&utm_campaign=trueAnthemTrendingContent&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwY2xjawLUp71leHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFzTEtkQk12UXdMZ29VVHhBAR4KeokdCkYEydCvhSre83DHvQ432Bqywa5Auj8_9odtgBapieYPiiY9qKVZHg_aem_sN-eWWWz1zw7eeNzUfSCsw
  10. Hope he finds solace??? Not me. I hope when he realizes what he helped do to himself, he hangs his head in shame and self rebuke, calling himself stupid, stupid, stupid as he kicks himself all the way to the poor house.
  11. I think their main goals are 1) to do anything and everything they think will appeal to their hard core, low educated, redneck, xenophobic bigot base, and 2) put as much money into the pockets of themselves and their über wealthy corporate cronies. And they are accomplishing both. Any damage done to the poor and working class is just seen as collateral damage and nothing to worry about as long as they can keep attention focused on immigration.
  12. The House, with Greene's vote, passed the bill with the AI regulation ban in it. It was the Senate version that removed it
  13. Even Marjorie Trailer Queen hates trump's One Big Bullcrap Bill... ....after she finally read it, that is Which was after she voted in favor of it.
