  1. I really am not too sure. I guess when it loads up, it loads up a little more on the debit card than the actual price of the ticket, so maybe that way. And I don't see how they could even buy a 3D movie. On my app, it always says they are unavailable anyways. I wouldn't be so stupid to buy popcorn and lose a $9.95 see all the movies you want deal, especially since you load up on the Stubs program anyway and get free stuff.
  2. I hope it warms up by game time. It is freezing in downtown Chicago right now.
  3. They said it was some sort of fraud prevention. That I was "chosen" for the beta group. They are saying people are using it to watch 3D movies, seeing the same movie twice, using it for concessions. I have only used it for the correct movie and had no idea you, at least for a while could see the same movie twice. Personally, I think it's a way they are trying to keep people from seeing more movies, especially crap you would never even consider without the pass, since it costs them every time and they supposedly have a cash crunch right now. It only inspired me to use it more.
  4. Any other Moviepass people out there have to take pictures of their tickets now? WTF.
  5. I saw some highlights of this guy. Obviously not as athletic as most of the top guys, but he knows what he is doing on a basketball court.
  6. According to this, the US is ranked 37th in health care. http://thepatientfactor.com/canadian-health-care-information/world-health-organizations-ranking-of-the-worlds-health-systems/
  7. So let me guess, you don't get any of your information from what anyone could consider biased journalism.
  8. According to this, uninsured are twice as likely to die in the ER than insured. I thought everything is the same. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/uninsured-twice-as-likely-to-die-in-er/
  9. If the Sox do get a top 5 pick again, that will mean they have had a 3, an 8, a 10, an 11, a 4 and a top 5 in 6 years, and still would have an average at best system without the trades. Larry Himes rebuilt the White Sox with a 5, 7, 10, and 4.
  10. Yes he did. Supposedly you get the same care. LMAO. There was a 60 minutes story on this. Some hospital in LA used to dump the non insured a block or so away from another hospital, And I am sure the people with no insurance or bad insurance get the same care as those with the best plans. Just ask the mom who has a United Health plan that denied her liver transplant. If what he claims is true, why have insurance?
  11. Is there a breaking point in number of lies or crimes committed or conflicts of interest when the right will actually turn on Trump? I always thought there was, but I am beginning to think there is not. Some will jump ship but not enough to remove him from office before his term ends.
  12. Yes. He being an enabler at the very least makes his quote the pot calling the kettle black.
  13. "If our leaders seek to conceal the truth, or we as people become accepting of alternative realities that are no longer grounded in facts, then we as American citizens are on a pathway to relinquishing our freedom." Rex Tillerson to VMI grads today.
  14. If they played .500, they would be 71-90 going in to the final game of the season. I am going out on a limb and say , no chance they win that many. It' also 3 or 4 fewer than what I believe they would win considering the horrid division.
  15. They did it for Avilan. He sucks too. And the guy KC had to give up to the Dodgers to take Soria is horrible as well. Jake Peter might be the best player, but where is he going to play, and even if you had a spot, I don't think anyone is losing sleep he is no longer with the team. Crap for Crap for Crap.
  16. I would rather they keep them down until the control clock gives them an extra year next year. No reason to have them up with this crap, when you can get an extra year of control when they supposedly are good, and if they suck, if these guys are any good, they are better trade assets with that extra year. If the plan is to be good next year, then call them up. If not, it's really a waste.
  17. Yolmer is usually heady, but he's had a few brain cramps this season.
  18. All the pitchers in the Soria trade suck so bad this year.
  19. At the Daley Center, there was a piece of art that looked like a Divvy rack except no bikes. AR15s were docked in the spots instead. Gunsharing. It was removed after 1 or 2 days. I think they said it was some sort of permit issue, but that doesn't make much sense.
  20. That's what I don't get. The guy has never been held accountable a day in his life. Yet no one calls people or entities dishonest more than he does. And he's being dishonest when he says it.
  21. And they will follow with the "gouging". That is the point.
  22. The reason for the story was he said his friends would clean up because apparently they wouldn't join the rest of the beer industry in raising prices more than a couple of cents. They did raise prices as much or more than anyone with the barley excuse and were quoted at were prices were going. They are just like any other one of these guys. They are going to charge whatever they can get away with. There is nothing wrong with that. I am just pointing out that to think they aren't going to take advantage of this excuse to raise their price while everyone else is as well is laughable.
