    They're building a Royal Farms in Douglassville. Right down the road from the Wawa...!
    "Dinner" is in the evening, unless it's Sunday dinner -- that's in the noontime range. "Supper" is a fundraiser event.

    Tms sensors have nothing to do with state safety inspections. They can't fail you for that.

    Definitely, also Popeye's is better than KFC. KFC used to be good and reasonably priced back in the 90's, they've gone downhill since around 2000. What cracks me up about Chikfila is they're setup in a bunch of football stadiums around the country but they are all closed on Sundays. Now that's some great business logic there. LMFAO !!!

    Also I agree with popeyes better than KFC. The only down side of popeyes atleast the ones by me. 1 they are always in the hood. 2. They will always mess you order up even if business is dead slow. And I mean always. I used to go in the store instead of the drive thru and they still seem to know how to mess an order up.

    Not sure the ghetto Popeye's in the Southside of Pittsburgh is still open or not (always robbed, fights breaking out in and outside of it, orders always messed up) but there's a great one on Rte. 65 in Avalon/Bellevue. All the workers and management are Arab /Eastern Asian and a couple Hispanic guys, place is always clean, orders have never been wrong (unless you count getting more chicken strips/ tenders than you ordered wrong), I don't. LOL Anyone from around pittsburgh check it out if you like Popeye's but not going to the ghetto ones.

    Well you seem to be the lucky one having 1 not in the ghetto. There is 1 that's not in the ghetto but it's its almost an hour away from me. And for all that I got a local chicken spot that has better chicken. Which is owned by 2 afgani brothers. Super chill guys. They also have a couple of chicken and rib spots in some super shady areas. They have 1 in Asbury park, elizabeth nj. Not very nice neighborhoods.

    That's been my experience with Popeye's. I use to go to the one in Wilkinsburg on Penn Ave and it was always dirty. I don't eat out very often in general, but I have never had a bad experience at Chick-fil-A. haven't been to a KFC for at least 5 years now. The last one I went to was in Monroeville. Food seemed like what I remember from years past.

    Depends on where in the country you eat bojangles, not all are created equal. LOL

    I've lived in and or been in every state in the continental U.S. except for Maine and I've eaten at almost every chain restaurant out there in the last 44 years and not all of them use the same ingredients as others. I do miss being able to eat at Jack in the Box, In n Out Burger and A&W restaurants (especially out in Oregon, Washington and Idaho), they were better out there. They were by far the best (atleast back in the 1970's-1990's before most of them closed up around the country). Even now the few that are still around aren't the same quality.

    I'm thinking we're getting more than the 1-3" they were calling for. Already 4-5" here. Roads haven't been touched yet, woods run and mairdale in front of my house are a main winter emergency snow route too. It's slick as hell. Cars are creeping doing 2mph and spinning out when they try to go faster.

    Meanwhile 10 miles south in Castle Shannon, south hills of Pittsburgh my buddy sent me a picture and they might have 2" and roads are clear.

    This, plus then some public (government or otherwise) program needs funding and they tax something that has nothing to do with it in the first place. Example, MA raising the tobacco tax a while ago to bail out the MBTA (our public transit system). I'll let you guess what's happened with that one.
