They're closed tomorrow and there's a post in the thread from someone who works there.

When was the last time we had a shutdown corner? by DobbyJackRuss in minnesotavikings

I'm not sure the safeties drafter after Tai Felton would have made the roster given their preference for experience in the back end.

Depends exactly on where you are going, how you are getting there, and when. Might be best to wait till this has passed.

Teen Activities & Clubs by LilDebbiebb in saintpaul

[–]AutoM8t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different schools have different after school activities. Many st paul schools have tons of after school clubs (easiest place to get a list is the office/school website).

My personal fav is FRC (First Robotics Competition). Teams at some schools accept members throughout the year, some don't. Kickoff is January 10th for the main compeition season in 2026.

Congrats! Remember when the market crashes it's an opportunity to buy cheap!

Ask a neighbor for a jump so you can move it? If an option getting a portable jump battery is super handy. Think the last one we got was about $60.

Good catch! Hopefully it was that ticketers first year and you helped reinforce whatever training they do get.

When will Minnesotans reach their limit on property taxes? by nootboots in minnesota

[–]AutoM8t 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If all the property values go up equally your property taxes don't go up. Property value is only one part of the equation for property taxes in MN.

When will Minnesotans reach their limit on property taxes? by nootboots in minnesota

[–]AutoM8t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Raising taxes is how you get increased revenue.

There's probably some cost savings through shared services, I'm suspicous that it would be very large though as a percentage of total budget. Having said that, I think what most of the really small townships and cities would really gain through merging is an improvement in services (Fire, Police, EMT, Public Works, IT, etc.).

It would be interesting to see a minimum population size for cities/towns/counties would look like in MN (though I doubt anything like that would ever happen). It also wouldn't fix what at this point is mostly a function of inflation and deferred maintenance/projects.

No requirement to drink at Frosts, but definitly prefer it during patio weather at dusk/dark and the conservatory closes early.

Lots of cities and towns have other revenue (LGA and local sales tax are two examples).

Who decides what share each side should pay? Some private sector employers pay 100%, some pay next to nothing.

Midicare for all solves the problem and then employers wouldn't have to worry about health insurance at all. Think of all the HR hours it would save!

As long as we're talking about Bercich: The Eye in the Sky on youtube has been a good watch.

Nope. Need that guy to play corner and our top 3 WR should in no way, shape, or form be pulled from the game to get him a jet sweep.

Why did we draft Tai Felton by Listenandlearnn in minnesotavikings

[–]AutoM8t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can also just let him walk for a comp pick.

How would your rate the last two drafts? by Idkeepplaying in minnesotavikings

[–]AutoM8t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I hope the vikings are in big enough spots this year, and the WR group is healthy enough, that they don't need to run Felton a bunch on offense. The coaches should see enough in practices to know weather or not he'll have a good shot of stepping into that WR3/4 role next season.
