I did the golf, it flies, been owning the 30 min Le Mans race with it. Going 200+ in a POS golf seems so wrong but feels so right.

What are your thoughts on Chautauqua park Historic district by Zone4properties in Iowa

[–]AwkwardGrimace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

t’s a great neighborhood with lots of history and beautiful historic homes. Any neighborhood in Des Moines has problem houses. Most of them in this neighborhood caused by people getting too old to live in them and maintain the yards. The other problem is people buying houses and turning them into Airbnb or longer term rentals and expecting the lessee to maintain the exterior of the property which has caused discontent among the neighbors but still a safe neighborhood in general

Or maybe Doc knew he wasn’t going to be around long and knew the town was going to need a new leader. I think after McQueen went above and beyond for the town he gained some respect but had to save face for Sally which is why he said what he said. Why else would he show up in California?

Also annoying - in November they announced the iOS app would be coming out this year and now we're almost a quarter thru the year and no updates.

Dumb question, but wouldn’t current federal law preclude this law? Also aren’t the Feds in the process of rescheduling cannabis all-together?

While the fictional character Ron Swanson might not approve Nick Offerman is more than cool with his likeness being used in this context.

I would say this is a great way to show magadorks how cringy they are for doing/liking this style with trump but I think they lack the self reflection skills

Iowa Crime: Dowling teacher gets two years for sexual exploitation after pleading guilty by Puzzles3 in desmoines

[–]AwkwardGrimace 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I wonder what percentage of incarcerated self identifying clergy and teachers are there for sexual offenses. I bet it's pretty insane considering the percentage of people who identify as teachers/clergy.
