    Re: Gear Grinding 7: Really? This crap again?

    There is an east-west street on the near North Side of Chicago named after the famous German poet and philosopher. If you want the bus driver to stop there, you better call it GO-thee. (definitely not geh-ta).



    In Greenwich Village, it is HOW-sten Street, HUE-ston is in Texas, not Manhattan.

      In Michigan, the town of Charlotte is not pronounced like every other Charlotte. Instead, it's (shar-LOT), and there's always extra emphasis put on the "lot."

                I thought I heard it was actually "cal-GARY" also, but not sure.
                Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                          I'm aware of that, but it gained its notoriety through that video.

                            Our sheriffs are getting the runaround and wasting a lot of resources because of... gofundme.com. Anytime you see a sob story relayed by the likes of Facebook, drudge, huff post, etc. be sure you're not being conned before sending cash. People suck. (They involve sympathetic victims like hungry kids and unverifiable/unidentifiable evil doers)

It mysteriously is 'fine' to eat, they don't know why. Or they eat large volumes of garbage food usually but when they are gluten free can't find the volume of trashy food they would normally consume and say gluten is the problem. Those who are skeptics see the inconsistencies and immediately dismiss all of it as bunk. Makes it much more difficult for those with legit problems.
