Ok. moving forward

Am I the only one who still really doesn't want this Stadium to happen?

I don't but that's mainly because it's the raiders that would be filling it, and Vegas can do better... That said I also don't live in Vegas so my opinions mean very little.

[LadyStanley]

Quite a bit different.

I moved here around 1993 with my family.

It's amazing how much things can change when it happens gradually.

Also, am I the only one that misses CAT Buses?

The white, pink and turquoise ones? Yes!

The white, pink and turquoise ones? Yes!

It wasn't the colors as much as the logo. I'm kind of a logo/branding freak and CAT had one of the coolest logos out there. It was even better when they switched to gold and blue.

Plus, it was a cool name. CAT Bus. So much better than RTC Transit.

Winter...not a fan.

Ugh! Just looked out my patio door, and it is SNOWING!!!

Very light, but those are definitely flakes.

 

[Boris Zubov]

That's some sky out there!

Edit...Snowing here in Southern Highlands.

5 spots to celebrate National Strawberry Day in Las Vegas

Where will you be celebrating National Strawberry Day (Tuesday 2/27)?

 

[nickp91]

So the Men’s Curling World Championship is in Vegas in few weeks (held there for us Canadians to escape winter, but also watch curling). You should head over and watch. Should be a good atmosphere.

 

[LadyStanley]

Baby, it's cold outside.

 

[LadyStanley]

Something to fill the evening hours, without VGK hockey tonight.

 

[LadyStanley]

Final development deal for Las Vegas stadium may come soon

Hoping to finalize on Thursday

Actress Nanette Fabray dies at 97!

RIP.

Actress Nanette Fabray dies at 97!

RIP.

Probably not what she would have wanted to hear, but about the only thing I remember her from is "Hollywood Squares."

But she certainly lived a long life and had what looks like a varied career.

RIP.

I didn't even remember her from that. Her name barely rang a bell. I'm a child of the 70s & she was way before my time.

Sounds like she lived a good life. RIP.

Ah, commercialism. Interesting combo.

Anyone else finding the mobile site to be complete f***en garbage? It used to work perfect a week ago... and now it takes a hundred pushes of the like button for it to finally recognise the like... posts are hit and miss on whether it posts or deletes everything you just typed out. It even takes a couple of hundred goes to load pages otherwise it comes up with a could not connect error.

Anyone else having problems or just me?

Not just the mobile site. I've been having the same problems with the website since yesterday. PITA!

 

[BattleBorn]

Server load is ridiculously high leading up to the trade deadline and trade deadline day.

We're learning the quirks of the new system, apparently these are the quirks for this one. It will improve.

 

[Nevada Jones]

Had a hunch it had something to do with the deadline. Hopefully clears up by tonight.

 

[BattleBorn]

Someone make a new OT thread with a funny title.

I figure we should recycle these every 1000 to keep them fresh.
