White Lightning has good food & cocktails. It's in the shopping center behind Raising Canes.

re: What do you imagine the main attraction to be at each port on this cruise?
Posted by runforrestrun on 4/22/25 at 6:13 pm
I'm pretty sure those boats were built for MS River cruises. I'm assuming they're trying to find a better use for them, but this is laughable.

Tarlov/Ford are much more passive about defending liberalism and position themselves slightly left of center.
Ford, maybe. I don't think Tarlov is anywhere near the center. Though I suspect Ford tones it down for TV.

You take screen shots while driving?
Driving, no. Parking lots and red lights, yes.

I still don’t see why you need an additional program to show my phone on the monitor in my vehicle when I am plugging it in directly to an auxiliary port on the car radio. CarPlay just seems to unnecessarily complicate things.
The CarPlay screen is much easier to see than looking at the phone in my lap.

My biggest peeves with CarPlay:
1- it takes over the audio when you're looking at any app with sound & forces you to change inputs on the car to get back to what you were listening to
2- when you take a screenshot while in CarPlay mode, it takes two- one for your phone screen and one of your CarPlay screen
3- wireless CarPlay is hit & miss when connecting to the vehicle & sometimes randomly disconnects.
4- if you need to take a video for any reason, it will not record sound while in CarPlay mode
BUT... I will not consider purchasing a vehicle without CarPlay
Disclaimer- Some or all of these might be user error.

Highly recommend Hilton Midtown. Not a super crowded area but close to two subway stations, walkable to time Times Sq, Rockefeller Ctr, Central Park,

Bonanza is our go to. A very balanced cab from the same makers as Caymus. Costco has it for $17

re: OEM verses glass shop auto windshield?
Posted by runforrestrun on 1/26/25 at 10:52 am
Cheaper ones are sometimes thinner and are more prone to chips. I had Safelite replace my Ram windshield with a generic & I couldn't see my heads-up display & the view was slightly distorted. I made them swap it for an OEM/Mopar.
re: Brands that came out of nowhere and took over.
Posted by runforrestrun on 1/25/25 at 6:33 pm
Several Korean brands come to mind. Samsung & LG took over the TV market from Sony, Toshiba, Sharp, etc. Hyundai & Kia are quickly catching up to Toyota & Honda.
