Most of the time in Boston. Defensive driving with the assumption people are trying to kill me. Motorcycling for about half that time with zero wrecks or drops either. Even at lights I’m checking my assumptions about other cars movement

The Hurricane at the Royal Bobcat is very good, but the Royal Hawaiian - that drink is a Tiki glass short of perfection. Good spot.
The Mon Kou is a great suggestion. I've been meaning to stop in at the Scurvy Dog for a Scorpion Bowl for a while now, but as its supposed to be a Monday only special I haven't made it there yet.

I am very much not in their target demographic, but I will reach out about a space once I've got the instrument looked at; as you say, the rental thing might be different. Thanks for the tip.

Hmmm I have some flowers that come up in one of my back mulch beds and I already see little tendrils popping up out of the ground.

Depending what your looking for Providence/Pawtucket area have plenty of venues. Smaller venues at News Cafe or The Parlour are great spots to have more of an intimate jam sessions. Other spots include Alechemy, The Met, Fete or the Strand. Promomoters like Rambudikon or Top 5 Fiend can help you book some shows.

Ahh you're right. Tho Esserman was just as bad.

Are you confusing Clements with Esserman?

NY has been on a similar trajectory with actual fuel prices though I think New York State does a better job of tamping down the utility delivery costs.
I was going to post on here earlier today and decided not to, but once in a while (say every six weeks) a recruiter will contact me about jobs in other areas of the country. And then I look, and to get the same level of say walkability and pleasure (this is to say, going too far from the ocean you better give me some good alternative things to do, and straying too far from places that don't get touring bands coming through is also bad) the prices are basically the same or worse every place I've been tempted to look. Yes, it's easy to so "ok sure Providence is cheaper than California or Chicago or whatever" but it's also cheaper than Charleston or Raleigh or New Orleans or Bend, OR or Lafayette, CO (etc. etc.) these days. Sure, if you want to move to the sticks you can get cheaper cost of living, and yes there are still some midwest cities (mostly in Ohio, even Detroit is expensive these days if you want to live in the "cool" area) where you can live cheaply and have some cool stuff (like Buffalo, but fuuuuuuuuck no on the snow sorry).
If you like, you can be like the r/wallstreetbets folks and just blame Jerome Powell for it all, but it is certainly not unique to Providence. And at least Providence has things going for it like a supply of water that they don't have to fight 7 other states for (hello Arizona what the hell is up with that housing market)

It is. They connected when they were shown to their seats by the person they had a moment with and they missed their chance at connection. Some missed connections are one sided completely. Doesn’t make it not a missed connection.
Either way dudes who live in glass houses full of online dick pics probably shouldn’t try to throw stones at people who are trying to connect with people with words and real life interactions.

Darn, I was really hoping your answer would be somewhere I hadn’t checked yet 😂 I use USAA, but Progressive gave me a quote that was basically exactly the same as what I pay last time I looked

Geico, which was marginally cheaper than USAA previously

Woah how have you avoided wrecks here for 25 years?! I had someone total my first car when they blew a red light and the second car was nearly destroyed when someone plowed into me at a yield. Other friends have had drivers get arrested for DUIs or smash into a row or parked cars at full speed.
Like... seriously, how?! Did you just move here and do all the other years in a low risk state?

Who is your insurance provider? I've never seen anyone get rates lower than 500/6 months because accident rates are astronomical out here.
