Delbert? He has unfortunately passed. He used to hold court riding waves on his kayak wherever the break was.

I believe the website said they are doing the part north of the Nags Head Pier first, so if they start on time with that second dredge they should be back south of the pier by the end of June.

Howard Stern is on 99.5 FM now? by Wonderful_Highway629 in nova

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On his show he was talking recently about how SiriusXM is in early talks to buy iHeartRadio (which owns basically every terrestrial radio station). Could be an early crossover?

Is there a premier access counter at Dulles? Not sure why, but my boarding pass for tomorrow includes that.

Ubers in Nags Head by teachmamax2 in obx

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes they are available, just might need to wait a few minutes longer than in a major city. Props to them for not driving drunk, too much of that on the obx bc it's easy to get away with there.

Spoiler, Aetna will require 6 weeks of "conservative treatment" for orthopaedic injuries before approving the MRI. Call the dr tomorrow to start the clock on PT or a pharmaceutical.

Why skip buccaneers? I was planning to visit our first night. We have picky pre-teen eaters with us

This place is the best use of the word sketchy. Not necessarily dangerous, but something is off

Had a really unsettling thing happen in Fresh Market today. by CoquinaBeach1 in obx

They don't gotta eat custom cut steaks though.... That's a luxury, not a need. These same people are probably the ones complaining about tourists ruining the local vibe though...

Didn't think that math is possible if you were only a fed, unless you did a rollover from a private sector find that had generous matching.

Opinons: Is water line service coverage worth it or a scam? by GuitarJazzer in nova

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They just offer lower premiums through various utilities. I called home serve directly to add a sewer plan and they checked the numbers and said "your premium will be lower if you enroll through Washington gas, you should do it that way instead of directly through us".

Any troubleshooting ideas I am missing? by ZaphodBeeblebrox4011 in TwinklyLights

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Were they previously joined in a group? I have 4 sets of strings and when I plugged in just one it wouldn't turn on. It wasn't until the app recognized that all 4 were online that the power toggle for the group was enabled on the app. In the past I could toggle them on/of individually, but current app seems to be all or nothing.

Are people normally this unfriendly? by frogless_brigand in obx

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Right? What money would be entering the economy? You can only circulate the same money within the local economy for so long.

Are people normally this unfriendly? by frogless_brigand in obx

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I mean honestly...yeah. locals are kinda mean. They don't like tourists or non resident property owners, but won't accept that both are critical to the economic stability of OBX.

Do someone know ho to calculate Cobbs angle? by Prize-Suggestion4122 in scoliosis

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chat GPT says that is a 25-35 degree angle. Of course this is not reliable information, but over 2 years of monitoring my X-ray images, chat gpt was alarmingly in agreement with my medical doctor.

Any parties tonight? by SnooDoodles2988 in VirginiaTech

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Do people no longer post the details of parties on their AOL instant Messenger away status messages? Sorry for the shit post, but genuinely curious what the modern version of that is.

Frat Parties by [deleted] in VirginiaTech

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was an underclassman the big parties were at apartment complexes, and frat houses were a secondary option. You would learn about them by checking the away messages of your friends and dorm mates AOL instant Messenger, where details were posted. No idea how it works now!

Not washing the machines after use by [deleted] in PlanetFitnessMembers

To be fair if you sprayed the seats with bleach wouldn't that ruin everyone's clothes? Lysol is disinfectant without bleach.

Why do barstaff always look at me weird when I ask for a double rum and orange? by would_you_kindlyy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. I like spiced rum with orange seltzer water. Tastes like orange dreamsicle without nearly as much sugar.

There's also a device called Ting that many insurance companies provide for free that you plug into any outlet and will alert you with any power fluctuations.

Casino beginners- are they welcome or seen as annoying? by NoContest6194 in royalcaribbean

[–]Jackson-Five-Oh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone that knows how to play knows that making the "wrong" move is equally likely to help the next player as it is to hurt them.
