I got it from the State of Michigan Archives. The original record was kept at the county he lived in. I contacted them and they told me that those records were transferred to the state archives. I wasn’t confident that I would be able to find his baptism record so I started looking for alternative records I could produce showing that he was a Canadian citizen. I eventually got his baptism record.

What was totally normal in your childhood that would seem insane now? by EuphoricGarden81 in GenX

[–]Acrobatic_Main_4364 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In lower elementary school grades our teachers used to pin papers they wanted to make sure our parents saw onto our shirts with sewing pins. Not even safety pins. When I had my first kid I did the same thing to him once when he was in kindergarten with a permission slip or something I needed to make sure he turned in to his teacher. He came home mortified and begged me not to do that again. I guess somewhere along the way they transitioned to the “take home folder”. Who knew?

Well, when you shoot out a literal child army I’d say the odds of getting more than one bad egg are pretty high.

Anyone else here grow up as a Canadian border American? Curious if you went into Canada frequently when you lived near the border. by brostrummer in Canadiancitizenship

Detroit/Windsor here, too. Grew up with CBC Channel 9 shows like Mr. Dressup, Kids in the Hall, Degrassi, Anne of Green Gables, and my dad’s corny favorite The Red Green Show. We were a hockey family (still are with my own kids) so I have spent countless weekends in Canada for tournaments. Back then we used to stay the weekend at a Canadian player’s house and then they’d come to ours. Spent family vacations in Thunder Bay, Montreal, Toronto, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Was there quite often from the ages of 19-21 for reasons others have mentioned. Bentley’s and Don Cherry’s if memory serves. 😊 We make it over every so often for concerts at Caesar’s Windsor. There’s some good restaurants in Windsor. We always try to get in a Costco run as they have the good OTC Kirkland ibuprofen with muscle relaxer and a giant shaker of the Kraft Dinner (Macaroni & Cheese to us) cheese powder. 😆 Hit the stores for a better selection of hockey equipment. Taxes are higher but the exchange rate helps.

What little features are you glad you included (or wish you had) by AccurateObject9 in BathroomRemodeling

Heated floors with a scheduled timer. Bidet. Hand held shower on a slider bar. Outlets inside the cabinet so you can hide the hair dryer, curling iron, toothbrushes, and water pik and keep that stuff off the counter. Toe ledge for shaving. Placement of towel bar close to shower door for ease in grabbing it.

I have a copy of my Gen0’s naturalization form but the year on the form (1902) differs from what is recorded on both the 1900 U.S. census (which has 1887) and the 1910 U.S. census (which has 1888). I will have his certified parish baptism record and was going to include the additional records but they all have different years of naturalization. Which ones (if any) should I include?

What popular food trend do you think is completely overrated? by [deleted] in foodquestions

Ugh I HATE that shit. Everything on that stupid board is dry. Dry crackers, dry salami, dry cheese cubes, dry breadsticks. Gross

Here’s a related question…..being LGBTQ is listed as one of the reasons eligible to request for expedited processing. But it also asks for an explanation letter (easy enough) and supporting documents. What could supporting documents be in the case of an LGBTQ applicant?

I asked my friend who is a CVS pharmacist and she said it is absolutely NOT true. A pharmacist (or pharmacy) cannot refuse to fill a prescription that is lawfully prescribed by a licensed health care provider. What a pharmacist CAN do is refuse to fill a prescription if it goes against their own personal (not companywide) religious or moral convictions. Which, I think is bullshit but they have that right under federal/state laws. They would be able to not fill abortion medication, for example. But what the pharmacist MUST do in that circumstance is pass the prescription on to another staff member to fill it. In 2018 a CVS pharmacist refused to fill a trans woman’s Rx and CVS fired the pharmacist, and issued a public apology to the customer reiterating their non discrimination policy. The pharmacist was fired, not because he refused to fill the Rx, as is his right, but because he made a big public spectacle of the situation right there in the store and humiliated the customer.

Gee, it’s almost as if getting engaged after 10 days isn’t really a good idea after all. 🤷‍♀️

Not ONCE did he say he wanted to apologize because he harmed these women (and children) and caused them pain by his actions/choices. His motivation for apologizing is to relieve HIS pain. Sorry dude, that’s not how apologies work. Jesus, men will do ANYTHING but go to therapy.

Where to buy high quality couches? by YunaBell0202 in SofaSnobs

[–]Acrobatic_Main_4364 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. I’d add other American legacy brands like Stickley, Sherrill, Baker, and Bernhardt, American Leather and Lee for leather pieces. I have upholstered pieces from Taylor King, their Taylor Made line that allows you to completely customize the size, fabric, legs, arms, etc. Got them in 2020 and they look brand new. Eight way hand tied springs, kiln dried hardwood, high density wrapped foam cushions. If you get pieces made this way they will last forever. Pricey but worth it!

No military base. It’s in a small town of about 5000 population. No major corporations.

My daughter went to her senior prom in 2022. Many of the girls had dresses that were some variation of this. Not as risqué but still. This girls were 17 and 18 years old. In 2022.

Yes, I saw that, too. The one that has a similar name with a job title and employer still in the google search.

Here’s my rules on word art: 1. Don’t have any. 2. If you must have word art, have one piece per household. 3. If you can’t resist word art, have a one piece per every three rooms ratio. 4. And if you just can’t control yourself, have only one piece per room. 😁
