because they concerned a current event.

Then, about a week later, Hosts got instruction that the "grace" period was over, and gun threads in GD should again be locked.

If you think a post is off-topic for GD, send an SOP alert and Hosts will discuss it.

for a DU war!

Best barbecue: Memphis, Texas, Santa Maria, Kansas City, Carolinas, or Boston?

One of those side-of-the-road places that you normally wouldn't frequent under any circumstances.

Ask for the dry-rubbed ribs. Screw the sauce.

Hurts like hell when you fall off of one of those stools at the bar and you hit the back of your head.
