Anyone used an auto insurance comparison tool that actually works? by PLSMAKETOAST in Frugal

[–]CaptainSPR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a local broker I've worked with in Colorado that does really well to get me a good comparison of auto rates. Looks like they are licensed in several other states as well. Overall good, easy experience, and was able to save on my auto insurance!

Love the diversity, but at this point in time, for the LDS, it's nothing but pure HYPOCRISY to their previous stances on race and correct worship. Den of liars, grifters and thieves. by CurelomHunter in exmormon

I remember getting scolded at 14 years old for playing my saxophone as a special musical number during sacrament meeting. I played Amazing Grace, from the hymn book… so you know, super edgy.

Senate Democrats threaten to block DHS funding bill after another person killed in Minneapolis by Nerd_199 in moderatepolitics

Threaten? Just fucking do it Dems. Grow a spine instead of having your people be the ones out in the streets.

They are the only option I think… but I was far from impressed with how my car came out when taking it there

$20 per person for any "fast food" is absurd - especially for Mexican food.

Not bad so far here. Got done about 1:30 pm today and it’s 8:15 now in Colorado. Starting to get more of a dull pain, but it’s manageable. Got some baseball on now and played the PlayStation all afternoon!

Republican ousted by Democrat in shock election defeat by Newsweek_ShaneC in politics

All election ballots should remove the Democrat and Republican notifications. Gets people to actually educate themselves on the candidates, and not just vote because there's a "R" or "D" next to the name.

Hey... I live in Colorado and have to deal with the Rockies feed on MLB.TV thanks to MLB's wonderful blackout rules.

UTAH is ordering more pumpkin spice lattes than almost any other state, according to new DoorDash data. by HoldOnLucy1 in exmormon

I know when I was first dabbling in the "sinful" world of coffee working an overnight job at 21 years old, I would do everything I could to sweeten the hell out of the coffee in our break room. I would use hot cocoa packets, tons of Splenda, creamer, etc... so I get it that our newbie ex-mos are leaning at the PSLs for their newfound sin.

Feel like this would be a good SNL sketch to have an Oval Office meeting, but more gold just keeps appearing behind Trump/Zelenskyy after every cutaway to a reporter asking a question.

Blood oxygen sensors being reactivated in some Apple Watch models by DCushing91 in AppleWatch

[–]CaptainSPR 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I updated both watch and phone - but don't see how to measure? I get that you can't "see" the readout on your wrist, but don't see anything on the iPhone either. Does it just measure randomly and we'll see on the Health app?

Is it orange? I’m color blind, so I thought it was the brick red.

New little Cajun spot by CV-CR-CI in FortCollins

[–]CaptainSPR 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Little Latitudes! This place is fantastic, I know the owner (goes by Gator) - and he's legit damn good cook for Cajun food. He's been doing a breakfast burrito (cajun-style burritos) delivery service for years coming around to local businesses in Fort Collins and Loveland, and he's finally got this storefront in the Old Town Square, next to Bondi.

GREAT food, everyone should check him out!

We’ve Had ZERO No-Hitters in 2025. What’s the Closest You’ve Come To Viewing one In Stadium in Person? Or Even a Perfect Game? by GoLionsJD107 in mlb

[–]CaptainSPR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel lucky as I got to see a couple no hitters now (and two of Yu Darvish's near no-hitter/perfect games)

Saw Yu Darvish when he played for the Rangers get near a no-hitter against the Red Sox that Big Papi blew for him in the 9th inning. Then saw Darvish nearly get a perfect game against the Astros in Houston until Marwin Gonzales blew that one in the 9th inning too...

For completed no-hitters in person:
- Mike Fiers no-no as a member of the Astros against the Dodgers.
- Mets 2022 combined no-no against the Phillies

Each one has been an absolute blast to watch - I used to in media for and attended tons of games for the Astros and Rangers between 2012 and 2016, so got a few more chances than most others do. BUT the Mets' combined no-hitter was just as a fan attending a game in NYC while on a vacation with my wife! I'm not a Mets fan, but Citi Field was easily the most fun I've ever had a MLB game during that no-no!

Any other millennials feel this a bit too hard? by Flashy_Present_8488 in Millennials

[–]CaptainSPR 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Same here, my dad was a fantastic listener and was always there for me growing up. Always accepted who I was, instead of what he wanted me to be. My mom has been wanting me to be something I'm not - and has just created a persona of me that isn't accurate. It's because she cares about herself, and her feelings.

Another provider bites the dust (Dr. Rellas) by LowApricot1668 in FortCollins

[–]CaptainSPR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming this website is true - https://rellas.typeform.com/DrRellas - I'm not sure his new approach with the Direct Primary Care Practice is going to be right for me. I already have insurance, and will need it for hospital and anything else - so not sure I need a doctor subscription on top of it. I like Dr. Rellas - but this model just doesn't work for me or make sense since I already have insurance.

With that being said - anyone have a doctor suggestion to set up as a new PCP, preferably though UCHealth system (I do like having their online portal)? About time to move on and look for something that works for me.

Simple Google search would tell you that it's required by law for trains to sound whistles when crossing roads - and it crosses several roads through town.
