You vote for Dems and you get shit holes like Chicago. Last Republican mayor was in the 50s, I think.

I don’t normally agree with you, but definitely do on this.

I’m getting really tired of the buy an EV, ride a bike, or take public transit spiel.

My next diving adventure is going to be Mexico for full cave in August. My WI instructor recommended this. Going with a woman instructor she knows...

Sure is! Thanks all!

I know a number of people who use an old iPhone as a media player.

Forgot to add - I asked for the ability to work at home occasionally such as when a bad snowstorm is forecast. I have a 45 minute commute. Owner...

IL, if you don’t have an iPass or EZ pass transponder, you just make a note of the toll taking sites and pay online. They did away with actual toll...

Work has been going much better. Got a 13% raise yesterday. $10K! I’m still shocked! Owner said he likes how I keep Customs off his ass. I told...

I saw 99 cents strawberries around Easter at Jewel (big grocery chain). I’m just about out the door to shop at Jewel. It’s been two weeks. Going to...

There are a lot of rentals in my condo complex (two story buildings, part townhouse and part 1/2 BR units). A lot of us seem to be longer term...

Just catching up with this thread now. Having grown up with an alcoholic father and my enabling mother, one of the best things I ever did was to move...

Just checking in. I’m fine. Haven’t seen the stalker. Oddly, I cannot access the forum with my VPN active nor via the Brave browser. Have to...

One difference about today is that there are multiple forms of effective birth control. Very odd, but Groot, the Chicago mayor, seems to be...

Thank you, Bae! I thought I did remember you mentioning that in the past.

The doors themselves don’t fully close. It’s something with the door itself.

Order of protection was denied. They did not consider this situation to need one. I do have a paperwork trail going with my local police department...

Temporarily deactivated my LinkedIn account. I am not willing to even temporarily deactivate FB as a lot of my diving is arranged there. Now...

Deleted the detailed post I had written. The stalker is done laying low. Working on getting order of protection in place. I’ve let all my friends...

I was referring to the poster’s daughter who wouldn’t go out shopping on Sundays because she was so disturbed by the signs.

Jeez. Really?

I guess it all depends on your relationship. My friends have been grateful for practical things like meals or gift cards so they could order food for...

I think you should be able to watch this video even if you’re not on FB. The Disapproving Corgis group is hysterical. This video is if Winston, who...

Yep, but look at it this way. If I was a vacation diver, I’d be dropping a ton of money on traveling. I’m spending more on gear, but diving a lot...

Just put down my $500 deposit. Probably July-September before I have my breather. Mfg has component shortages like everyone else these days. That...

Yay! New Corgo! A friend in the UK tells me Corgi puppies go for GBP 4K. I think you went the the best route. Enjoy and you must provide photos!

Glad to hear you’re doing well.

It’s not a scam. It’s legit. Each state has its own version of this. Never found anything for me on IL’s site.

Monday we had maybe half an inch of wet snow. Roads were clear but very pretty on the trees and such. High 60s for a few days and then 40s and 50s...

Looks like I’m maybe going rebreather this year. Seems like I’m not going to be able to get enough helium to finish Helitrox class this summer after...

Yep! There are also some countries that just don’t seem to have the national mindset for self governance. Dictator needed.

He currently lives in the US so has access to news here. Oh yes I know what Russians are being fed.

Flowers, so sorry to hear you got the plague. Get well soon!

I was chatting with a local guy about diving on a scuba forum. We share the same instructor. He mentioned he was going to be back and forth overseas....
