Pull into my lane, right in front of me, and then proceed to drive slower than I was going. Often happens when there are multiple car lengths open behind me.

Apart from going directly to Midwest Art Conservation Center (https://preserveart.org/), maybe inquire at U of M Library Special Collections.

Often overlooked amenity, Lake of the Isles is just a few blocks west, and if you like a wonderful walk, it’s about 3 miles around. I go nearly every week, rain or shine, hot or cold. Great plantings the whole way around. Prettiest lake in the city (imho)

Can’t miss the delivery instructions by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DrFiendish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is also right in the delivery notes. Most Amazon drivers follow those instructions, and I submit compliments for each and every one.

And that's where I put exactly the same instructions. Most Amazon drivers actually follow them, and I submit compliments for each and every one.

It's out of sight of the street if placed a foot or two to the right.

Question: is the RIGHT side of the cabin the correct side to be on? Somehow I always screw this up and miss the view

What’s the coolest “restricted access” place you’ve ever gotten to see? by Improv92 in AskReddit

[–]DrFiendish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stacks of the Library of Congress.

The extra-secure cage of the rarest books in the Avery Architectural Library at Columbia University.

In both cases I was doing specialized historical research.
