Good to know. Will have to try it. A good NYC bagel is hard to find even in NYC

Help Rhode Island be less sucky by coming to a r/cozyrhody cleanup. There is one tomorrow morning in Olneyville at 10 am. You can be the best version of yourself you want to be in a place where no one owes anyone anything. Plus, the people there are pretty cool, too.

Wildfires and mass shootings being casually grouped in with snowstorms as common occurrences is one hell of a sign of the times.

Nah. Just someone who thinks people should drive safely and who values our kids.

This was coming south around the corner on Newport Ave approaching St Margaret's I was just in traffic with everyone else going the same speed as everyone else at the start of rush hour.
I never said it was an excuse but a flashing school zone sign eliminates that as opposed to the static black and white signs the camera company put up.
If you don't understand that their signs are designed NOT to be seen I have a bridge to sell you.

The child safety comes from the crossing guards in the morning and afternoon when the vast majority of kids are outside. The camera in front of McCoy still goes off after 5pm if I'm not mistaken.

Hudson Street Deli is pretty good. I also like Coffee Connection in a pinch.

Ex NYer here. Bagel gourmet. One on Thayer one on meeting st and another I think on Richmond (or used to be?). Artisan bagels around here are all meh. Ditto their sandwiches. BG is closest to an nyc egg and cheese and b (or s) you’ll find.

Bottom of this story, a listing of all the speed camera locations, although a few may have changed.

I will never stop at any business in EP. Try to avoid going thru when possible. If no-one visited their city it would end this nonsense.

RI sucks, it’s expensive for no reason and unless you love the beach or bars really nothing to do . Anyone who says different should explore other states more often.

There is no business in Rhode Island.
I lived in Rhody for 30 years. Grew up there, schooled there. Moved away with my family, as its not an amazing place to raise your children based upon tax structure, cost of living, and lack of business growth. This is unfortunately taking into account the unparalleled beauty of our coast.
Moved out of state and have seen my monthly costs plummet and overall cost of living improve.
I may eventually purchase a summer home in Rhody, for the amazing summers there, but I will not call it my primary place of residence.

Do whatever you want, I'm not your mother, but don't forget to call her. She worries about you.

Reply to comment by MonicaPVD in Mount Pleasant assistant principal requests donations from staff to student's 'coyote' by trabblepvd
The assistant principal seems to be some sort of 'activist' so its not likely it was being naive, and more likely horrible judgement sending that email. turtleboy has a little more on the assistant principle - https://tbdailynews.com/providence-assistant-principal-sends-email-to-teachers-soliciting-money-to-drug-cartel-coyotes-for-helping-student-cross-border-illegally/
