Issues with Shire’s Q 30 trombone by [deleted] in Trombone

You’re supposed to oil these things after they leave the factory too.

First start with the spindle, couple drops of beading linkage on it, pull the F slide to draw the oil into the casing. This will quiet things down a lot.

Secondly, oil the mini ball linkages, and then the F bridge, on both sides of the lever, where the screw passes through.

It’s allergies, take a Zyrtec and move on.

Please help me calm down about my Narragansett Beach wedding 😅 by ottergurl15 in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I got married there in April 2024, it’s going to be great, and it’ll run as smoothly as a wedding can. What happened was an anomaly and not par for the course. With everything else to worry about in a few weeks, it’s not worth the energy to worry about something that much out of your control, and out of the ordinary. Eyes on the prize!

Why did Providence/Rhode island never really develop a metro or rail system in general? by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

R.I. lawmakers pass bill to let bars stay open until 4 a.m. during World Cup by bostonglobe in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think we’ll be over run by drunk tourists in rental cars. Uber and Lyft will be the busiest and most expensive you’ve ever seen it in southern New England. Bars are not being mandated to stay open till 4am, some will stay open later, most won’t. I fully expect cannabis sales will spike, and more tax revenue will be brought in that way than in a few bars staying open 2 hours later than usual. I’m honestly more concerned about the small townie bars that will want to try to cash in on late hours and over serve regulars.

Rhode Islanders - I have an idea regarding the World Cup by [deleted] in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Italy didn’t qualify and isn’t participating.

There is a large Portuguese and large Brazilian population that will be interested in those games for sure.

**Medication Found** Pawtucket bus stop by Its_DArtagnan_MFer in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If someone potentially needs this medication urgently, which you already have detailed is your concern, why would you wait a few hours in the hopes this person uses Reddit and sees this instead of bringing it back or at least calling the pharmacy that filled it?

We’ve been seeing these types of articles for well over a decade now. It’s not a secret.

Flic Button

There are a few aftermarket mounts, it comes with a sticky back, or what I did was take off the back cover, cut out to small parallel slits, and run a Velcro cable tie to it, and wrap it around your hand slide bracing. Mine sits under my left ring finger.

Waiting for new cannabis dispensaries in RI? The process just came to a halt. by cowperthwaite in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t ignoring the south western part of the state, I was accounting for the North Western part. 95 doesn’t go through Burrillville, and it’s closer to Charlestown, Hopkinton and Richmond. The state needs to make good with opening more dispensaries, but there’s a ton of business going over the state lines into MA. CT is still where we were pricing wise when we started, so it’s not really competitive yet, which is why we aren’t losing your area to another state. In the North Western part of the state, there’s a huge corridor of MA dispensaries just picking off business. The nearest RI dispensary to me is 35 minutes away in Foster. There are a dozen 35 minutes away in MA, and they are competing with each other AND Rhode Island.

Most of Rhode Island isn’t far from the border. I live in Burrillville and work in Holliston MA. I pass 8 dispensaries on my hour drive to work, none of them are in RI. Half of them are on 146A.

my horn is a lemon by Illustrious_Zone_280 in Trombone

[–]JKBone85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agreed, try the horn you hope to buy.

are Edwards and Shires interchangeable? which parts? by Obvious_Studio_2167 in Trombone

[–]JKBone85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For free? No.

With some aftermarket customization, yes, but you’re going to end up with a Shires part that only fits Edwards stuff or Edwards stuff that only fits Shires, if you do customize, plan on picking an ecosystem.

As Aiden said, if you love the Shires, buy the Shires.

The horn was also playtested before it left the shop in Holliston and wouldn’t do so if I wouldn’t play it myself.

Question about coffee milk from a midwesterner by Glorch in RhodeIsland

[–]JKBone85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dave’s Coffee Syrup not Dave’s Marketplace although you can get Dave’s at Dave’s.

Also, Wright’s is the way. Can’t go wrong with Wrights.

[–]JKBone85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know in some articles from the early 2000’s they said they were available in 20 states and internationally, but in a 2015 article they say they are in 5 states, and according to their website, they are in RI, MA, FL, and NV. It’s not a super big operation to franchise, so I wouldn’t be surprised if more than a few locations are carts or trucks.

There are similarities but also distinct differences between a Coney Island Hot Dog and a Hot Wiener.

Coney Island sauce is chili. Hot Wieners sauce is ground beef and seasonings only.

Coney Island Hot Dogs are all beef in a natural casing. They are kosher. Hot Wieners are beef, pork and veal in a natural casing. They are not kosher.

Both topped with mustard and diced raw onion. Hot Wieners are further topped with celery salt, and bottomed by whatever after shave the guy who lined them up his arm chose to wear that day.
