      MUCH better seats than the commuter rail to Boston!! Those things were removed from a torture chamber at some point.

      We had a cabin to ourselves, too.

      Only the LATE train had that LOL

          ONLY in New England we talk about a backup QB!!

          Jimmy G posts "peace out" on Instagram. Looks like his account got hacked and it was a hoax.

              In japan that would usually be because someone stepped in front of a train ahead of you and they are still cleaning up the mess.

                That would derail the little train here 🙂

                            I do not even know how that myth got started (never bothered to research).

                            The Ag industry was one of the biggest opponents to the original implementation in the US around WW1 era.

                                I was very much in favor of eliminating DST until I realized that's the part that I like best. It's non-DST that I dislike. I say let's stay at DST all year and let it stay light out later all the time!

                                  Most dietitians and doctors will tell you, a varied diet is key to being healthy. And seeing as they are actual qualified experts and not Instagram or blog-based advocates, you should be listening to them and not the latter.

                                    Agreed - I do like DST better than ST. Interesting that the article even expressed that.

                                          Oreos have been having a lot of weird reactions lately with all of these new flavors. Cake batter had something like this occur too i think

                                            Why, because it says to listen to doctors instead of bloggers? Makes sense to me. Bloggers are a large contributing factor to the expansion of dietary cyberchondria. People, in general, are idiots and they take internet articles way too seriously without checking into the person's qualifications.
