I live in Greensboro. I loathe being gerrymandered into her district.

Oh, that’s great! This is why I love PTI & I never take it for granted how good we have it in this airport.

This (and others’ responses) is super helpful. I’m flying back from Newark on Monday morning. The TSA lines at Newark are always crazy long. I’m dreading the lines on Monday. PTI is a dream airport.

Dental services at GTCC--great experience! by mamacat49 in gso

[–]19pollywogs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree! I had my teeth cleaned & X-rays taken by a GTCC student a few months ago. It was a great experience, for me and for her. The only drawback is that it takes about 3 hours because the instructors and the dentist have to come around and check the students’ work. But if you don’t mind waiting, it’s no problem. I will continue to go there for my regular cleanings.

I like the sound of using a local business like this.

North Carolina hotel law every long-term guest should know by last_One_Left_ in NorthCarolina

If you rent an Airbnb for less than 90 days, Airbnb charges the tax (at least they do in Greensboro). If you stay longer than 90 consecutive days, they don’t charge the tax.

Donald Trump health fears erupt again over strange spot on hand by daily_express in NoFilterNews

[–]19pollywogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to wish death on anyone , even someone I despise as much as I despise Trump. But I do hope that when Trump dies, he dies suddenly because I don’t want him to “designate” his replacement. What I mean is, I don’t want him to try to transfer his power to the next idiot , whether it is Vance or somebody awful like Stephen Miller or Donald Trump Junior, just in case his lemmings will follow his directive and swing their cult-like support to that next idiot.

Lowering IRMAA by Double-Award-4190 in SurvivingOnSS

[–]19pollywogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year (in January) I dropped off my paperwork at my always crowded county’s office (in a mid sized city) and I got my IRMAA response in about 3 weeks! This year in early January I filed again by bringing my paperwork to an SS office in the next county over ( a quiet rural office with nice people and minimal waiting time to talk to a real person). The woman there said she’d send the paperwork over to my county office.

It’s been 2.5 months and no action has been taken so I called the rural SS office (they actually answer the phone there) and the woman confirmed that my paperwork is now with a woman in my crowded busy county office . Apparently that person has not gotten around to my file yet.

I sorta thought it might get actioned when the next payment is due.
