30 seconds cleaner will eat the algae, mold, mildew, all that. It's suprising how well it works. When you use it you won't have to pressure wash much.

Reply to comment by -Hot-Toddy- in Question: Does anyone have any suggestions as to where to sell used DVDs & Blurays? by -Hot-Toddy-
They aren’t hiding Greg, he’s dead!
When he was alive I often saw him in the store and interacted with him. The most important thing about getting a good price from Eide’s is how rare/offbeat/interesting the items are. If it’s mostly mainstream films and bands you won’t do well there.

I work at a dental office, if you don't want xrays, there are all sorts of things that can go wrong in between your teeth and underneath that can cause serious long-term damage. So yeah you're definitely right.

Reply to Manhole on Pitt campus installed between 1891 and 1911, when there was no 'H' in Pittsburgh by zan_yams
1891 to 1911 were the years of the great H shortage. PittsburgH changed their name to Pittsburg in order to help alleviate the shortage. things were a bit confusing around the US as Houston had to go by Ouston for 2 decades...

Cabling I personally use Monoprice, for the pots I’m guessing will have to be online now as well unless someone knows of a place carrying individual parts

You could just explain this to your pcp and they could write something for you to take once you get to your appointment. I’ve done this when I’ve had MRIs done as I’m extremely claustrophobic

Wow. They did a fucking pathetic job on the sign then, because it very much does not say that - if it indeed says anything intelligible.

You should get your car inspected like the rest of us

A three-hour epic, or as we like to call it, there was an accident on the parkway.

Very simple
Dentist: “I’d like to do x-rays” Patient: “no”

Too bad you can’t just bungee cords to hold the roof on!
Yes it was terrifying! We were about 15’ away chilling in the living room when the power went out. No storms or anything going on so I look outside and boom giant tree in my front yard!! It took power lines down onto a very busy street. Thankfully it was almost midnight on a Wednesday when it happened.
Not to make this too long of a story but when I called 911 (power lines were laying on the road) I waited on hold for 7 minutes. “Due to high call volumes”. That was even scarier than the tree falling I think!!

Local hamfests are usually a good option, if the timing works.

I always wondered if the casino was able to serve alcohol 24/7. This answers that. I wonder what time they start back up in the morning.

It's an easy half hour and it's probably only 35 minutes even with traffic.

I tell everyone that I take to Ritters that Ritters has "diner coffee". I absolutely love it but I expect nobody else to.

There is a real chance you're the only person who does not think the 'per day' isn't the only possible implication from that sign. Otherwise, there'd have to be so many other rules about "how long can you leave until you're allowed to park again?". Sooo complicated that there is, truly and surely, no way to enforce it (or communicate it on a little sign).
The way you understand the sign without 'per day' means that it's good for someone to leave and come back again... for how long do they have to leave? How would the sign communicate that? How lucky would the person have to be that the scanner comes the exact point and time that they were gone to register they left and came back? It's so spooky and messy that there's no way that that could be the way that it works, so (nearly) everyone recognizes that must not be the way that it works.
