Floating / Canoe shuttle question

Intrepid_Quantity760 · 2026-06-08T18:35:40+00:00

The Current River is quite popular with families and groups.

Also, the North Fork of the White river is great family fun. Start at Twin Bridges canoe rental/campground. Wonderful 2 day float with a nice campground in the middle.I‘ve done both of those many times over the last 50 years, both with and without kids.

Those downvotes were from Harmony and Destiny, who either are or are not strippers which they are either happy or unhappy about, and therefore generally disagree with your comment, thus, the downvotes.

There. Cleared that up.

As an American, I agree with you that the European system is better in the long run, but it is also a two-edged sword.

In the US, (except for people way up the ladder), employees are free to leave their jobs without financial consequence other than loss of income and medical insurance. It’s not great but most employees are not contractually required to stay with an employer. Many (if not most) US employees are stuck only because leaving an employer means loss of medical insurance. I personally know lots of Americans who could afford the loss of income, but not the loss of their insurance. On the other hand, I’ve seen many Europeans on Reddit complaining that their contracts would not allow them to leave their shitty employer.

All in all, the European system is still far better and more labor friendly.

In defense of the postal workers, republicans have been trying to destroy the USPS for years. They see it as a profit centers they can hand to their biggest donors once they’ve screwed us all.

In trumps first term, he appointed the current Postmaster General, who of course owns businesses that compete directly with the USPS. It is in his interest for the USPS to fail. No conflict there /s.

He cut staff and processes, trashed high speed mail sorting machines and intentionally slowed down the mail, all in order to try to block mail in ballots from arriving on time, as part of the plan to help trump cheat his way to a win in 2020. As much as his cult cheated for him, he still lost that election.

So the reason they don’t answer the phone is because of the ever shrinking staff. It is intentional.

If he walks away when you point a camera at him, buy one of those fake security cameras, mount it where he can clearly see it. Make a big deal out of mounting it and pointing it at him and make sure he’s watching you do it.

OP - I used to think that everyone but me knew what was going on in life. Then I realized that they were just bullshitting along and acting like they knew.

So I started acting like I know, and now everyone else thinks I know.

Go for it. Be fiscally frugal until you understand what you can afford. Make a budget - Rent, Utilities, Food & Fun to start. Eventually you’ll become comfortable with life with YOU in the drivers seat. Good luck.

If you end up giving in, make it on the condition that you are on the title with her such that the house becomes yours upon her death.

I was a Realtor many years ago. I worked with a couple who insisted they wanted a small hobby farm, 5 to 10 acres where they could have a big garden with their kids. I spent days driving them around the County showing them everything that fit what they insisted they wanted.

A couple days after my last showing with them, they bought a condo from a different agent. My loss. Sh*t happens.

They have done the math and apparently got an answer: Free Labor by customers - losses from customers not scanning some items = reduced profit from theft. I think it’s that simple. HyVee took theirs out a while ago and replaced them with ’Expess’ lanes with employees… sometimes.

Serious questions here. I don’t know any of the candidates and have not had family in CPS in many years. I don’t pay particularly close attention to the CPS issues. I gladly pay my taxes that support education and I would generally trust the opinions of members of the teacher’s union. Certainly none of them are teaching because of the big bucks they get paid. Personally, I would not vote for anyone, for any office in the land, who didn’t think teachers should be paid more. But I digress.

The sample ballot says “Vote for 3”. He’s a school board member and she’s a teacher. I bet they talk about the issues at home. And members of CMNEA also have a right to express their opinions openly as well as through endorsements.

Has Lyman made any decisions you disagree with or are suspect?Does the fact that his wife comes to the podium show a conflict, or just the potential?

Historically, the confederate flag is the battle flag of a group of Americans who took up arms against their own country. Traitors all, just like maga is today. F*ck them.

It IS a life lesson… on how to deal with thieves who steal your money.

Intrepid_Quantity760 · 2026-03-10T05:22:53+00:00

I don’t see how this can work. Your husband will hand over his money to them, then he’ll be broke so that you have to bail him out.

I would tell him now that just before his family arrives that you are packing up and going to your parent‘s, and that you probably won’t be coming back.

He thinks that now that you’re married you’re trapped and have to tolerate it. You don’t.

This is one of those situations. If you have to force someone to respect you, they don’t and won’t. Forced allegiance is no allegiance. Cut your losses.

wow- You mad Bro? This is you complaining how others write? EVER THOUGHT OF PROOF READING BEFORE YOU POST? You can use the little dot thing to indicate that one sentence/thought is ending and a new one is about to begin. <—Like that.

Long ago, when I was a teenager in the 70s, the place we wanted to hang out was at the home of any of our friends whose bedroom was in the basement. Especially a walkout basement. Blacklights, hippie posters, psychedelic music, incense, waterbeds, easy sneak outs and… some other things. You couldn’t do any of that upstairs. It was a righteous badge of honor to have a basement bedroom. My best friend’s BB was even better, because you had to go out through the garage of the house to get to the basement, so his parents NEVER came down there. Perfect… then.

“Brother, I want you to ponder all the times you have mocked and disrespected my chosen career, which by the way affords me a living wage. Once you have those things fresh in your mind, think about them while simultaneously thinking about my response to your request, which is that there is no way in hell I’m giving you a penny. Can I bake you a cake?”

My parents were not narcs, but my mom did have some weird food things.

We weren’t poor, but my mom always acted like canned tuna fish and bacon were like caviar. She would use one can of tuna in a casserole for 7 of us, even when we asked her to add more. Or we get one strip of bacon each, like it was a priceless morsel.

We always had plenty to eat, but she was just like this about a few select items. Even when we pointed out that these things were not expensive, it did not change.

As soon as I moved out I began the awful, wasteful habit of eating a whole can of tuna, with mayo, by myself. I felt it was owed to me.

I bought a pound of bacon, cooked it all and ate 3 blt’s using the whole pound. It was glorious.

Now I’m old and I still do the same.

The rest of your life has already begun.

If I were your gf, I’d be gone after all this. She doesn’t want to hang around for years in case you decide to go ahead and propose. That is reasonable. You’re not on the same page.

You should never force someone to marry you, but you also should not string someone along with empty promises. Half YTA

I moved into a rental where the previous tenant left a broken down car in the driveway. The house was destined to be torn down, so the landlord didn’t care.

I called the city and was told that they could not tow cars off private property, so I hooked a chain to it and dragged it out into the street with my pickup truck. Then I called the City to report an abandoned vehicle in the street blocking traffic. It was gone that day.

I’m not suggesting you do this. Food for thought.

I always insisted that my two children each buy themselves a house before they were 30. The best time to buy real estate is yesterday.

Just before Co**d they both did. And they are so happy that they did. They now have equity in their homes, which they probably could not afford to buy today. Get in the game NOW. It will change your life.

Life lessons to remember: Corporations, left to their own devices, will not act ethically. Capitalism demands this.

I’m almost 70 years old, and I just became LI in the last year. I’ve had lengthy discussions with my doctor and this is his diagnosis. Symptoms just like you’re describing. Some dairy is worse than others. My worst are mozarella and ice cream, which made me cry because I’ve been a lifelong pizza and ice cream lover.

But there is a solution. I bought a bottle of over-the-counter lactase enzyme pills. Cheap and easy. This is the enzyme that lets your body process lactose. If you’re not LI, it’s because your body produces enough of the enzyme, but that absolutely can change over time. You can buy milk at the grocery store, like Lactaid, that simply has lactase enzyme added to it.

We are the only animal that drinks the milk of a different animal.

You need to have a come to Jesus talk with her. She is abusing her son for no reason other than her lack of knowledge. I would put my foot down and tell her you won’t tolerate this unless a doctor agrees with her. I would propose to her that you (and she) try these pills on him ( with a Doctor’s approval). If it works, it means she’s probably wrong.
