The attic in millvale is the best. I like the government center too which is nearby so you could hit both of them.

Alright. So the guy who regularly and routinely orders his staff to make prosecution decisions based around what he thinks will help him politically totally by coincidence happened to have a big news story he thinks will help him politically within 24 hours of being caught up in a major ethics scandal.
And you are sticking to that story.
Alright then. Oh hey. As a side note. I have a great investment opportunity for you. It's this bridge in Brooklyn. Send me a private message and I'll get you a quote. My price is extremely fair for such a great bridge.

For your district I'd be leaning Rachel Rosnick for MDJ. She has a history of fighting for the kids who are most likely to end up in the school to prison pipeline, she cares more than damn near anyone I've ever met, and honestly if it weren't for her instead of writing a comment on Reddit I'd be dead.

I make boiled peanuts all the time in the slow cooker. Prestogeorge in the Strip District. It’s near Wholey’s

Yeah, that’s very true.

A previous thread suggests that dry unroasted peanuts will have to be boiled longer than green (fresh) peanuts.

Nicholas Coffee & Tea in Market Square roasts their own peanuts as well.

Thank you for asking this question, I never thought there'd be a place to buy them! I just buy canned ones from Walmart lol

They do sell them. Source: have bought them. $2.50/lb, IIRC.

Absolutely. He also (successfully) pushed the negative story about him from the front page. I doubt anything will come of it. He’d have to prove that Kennywood is a “nuisance,” which would be a heavy lift. But the negatives from them not opening, both for their private owners and the region as a whole (wages, taxes) would be compelling.

Since when does a DA get to dictate what steps a private enterprise MUST take on security? Seems to me like that’s a legislative function or code.

You might try asking at prestogeorge down in the strip. They roast their own peanuts so they definitely have some handy. Whether or not they can sell them to you is another story.

I have a house in squirrel hill with a large fenced back yard and so do all my neighbors, Zillow estimates my home value at $850. Is that where your budget is?

Yeah I know, Dugan is definitely getting my vote. Just trying to express my anger and frustration with Zappella.

Since OP is looking for Punk and Metal Jerry’s is def not the place. The Attic would be the best — they have a dedicated punk and metal section in the back. New used stuff is right when you walk in the door, make sure you browse that stuff too /u/spencergar. Tell Tony I said hi.
If you’re able to you can also hit up the Government Center which is close to town and not far from the Attic. Also Get Hip is pretty close (I haven’t been there in a minute though, so not 100% sure what they have).
It’s a bit outside of the city, but Preserving is a dedicated punk/hardcore/metal store (and venue): https://www.preservingunderground.com
