I voted the plain with chive, but I'd actually choose a poppy or sesame seed with plain cream cheese, normally. Although if it's a true breakfast option, lots of times I'll go with the cinnamon raisin with plain cream cheese. Great stuff.

I think it's a circular thing. It's harder to drive on untreated roads with summer tires, so folks panic and overreact. The overconfident idiots are found everywhere though.

The strategy that Duke would have liked to play against Syracuse was to have Amile Jefferson set up at ...

Obviously Frey had a lesser contribution to the music of The Eagles than David Bowie had to his own music, but I have certainly enjoyed a lot more of what The Eagles made than Bowie. I'm not claiming The Eagles were more influential or more important, but they made better music.
