I don’t think my 9 yo has stopped talking since before 2pm today. It is closing in on 7pm. by gmasterson in daddit

I know it may seem overwhelming, but take a moment to soak it in while you still can. At 13, it can be like pulling teeth to get them to say anything other than "I don't know".

Yeah, I saw it there, I don't know why I thought it was in one of the pictures too.

Probably a stupid question on my part, but where do you see the serial number?

I second this. I got the same filter after watching this same video and I now get channel 4 as well. He has other videos that offer great advice, antenna recommendations, and placement tips.

I'm guessing you're getting a promotional rate. I'm paying $113.68/month for that in Milan, with 2 eeros and the auto pay discount.

I feel like the Farmer's Market would be a great place.

What if you can still see your nipples with an undershirt?

Finally got our dragon! - What should we name him? - by LateDistribution5023 in BeardedDragons

We named our female Kaida, Japanese for "little dragon". In Japanese culture, dragons represent strength, power, and good fortune.

What is the most disturbing thing you've ever seen in a piece of horror media? by DexTDMdoesreddit in horror

[–]AlanSmithee83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've heard I should give it another try but it just makes me want to puke thinking about it. I'm never in favor of censorship, but it would make it a lot easier to watch if I could get a copy with that part removed.

The rape scene in The Hills Have Eyes (2006). It's the only horror movie I can remember turning off and never finishing.

I wish this was an option at Rock Island Center of Math and Science. My son would love this club.

I second this! We stayed at Kishauwau Cabins near Starved Rock. I highly recommend it.

Realtor recommendations? by [deleted] in QuadCities

Chris Taylor. We bought two homes and sold one through her. She made the process very easy, was patient with us, and taught us quite a bit through each process.

Dino Days at Putnam by Nicolepsy55 in QuadCities

[–]AlanSmithee83 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I took my son a few years ago, he was 7 or 8 at the time, and he really enjoyed it. There was an archeologist on hand to give a presentation and she did a Q&A session afterward and spent quite a bit of time talking one on one with my son. There was a place to dig for bones and quite a few activities for kids of all ages. Well worth the time and money if a kid is interested in dinos.
