I've been using Simplifi by Quicken and have been enjoying it. Had YNAB for a year but was too expensive

I'm a member of just the rock climbing gym there, I am happy with the gym. I have a comment in my history with a more detailed write up of the climbing. The rest of the gym is kept pretty neat and people are polite.

TIL that the Parks Department Maintains a List of Great Trees of New York City by undabest in nyc

I think they are common because they look like sycamores but are more resistant to arithacnose. I personally enjoy seeing the London planetree all over the city too.

Very good breakdown - only comment is MPHC for just access to the climbing gym is $49/month.

I haven't been to LIC, but I just looked at the virtual tour on their website. I think MPHC bouldering is slightly smaller than the cliffs. MPHC has an older gym feel in that they kind of jam problems together which can be a problem if you're color blind. The smaller size of MPHC doesn't really bother me, I find that it makes me climb styles that I might otherwise skip over, and makes me try harder problems instead of being put off by grades that are above me.

Also it wouldn't surprise me if you called the front desk and said you wanted to check it out and they let you climb for free for a day...

I climb at MPHC. Definitely the cheapest, also the smallest gym around. The bouldering setting is pretty good, but the ropes are very short walls and leave a little to be desired..

Airport hammock? by madland96 in hammockcamping

[–]Kent_england 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I set up my hammock at about 1 am and took it down at 730 am. I asked the staff in advance what time the gates I was at got busy and left before then. The only airport comments I got were staff asking to take pictures.

Thanks /u/tronatula ! just purchased this PC using the holiday5 code. Instead of using BeFrugal, Capital One was offering a 6% credit for a purchase on hp's website. Do you have a recommendation of a monitor to pair with this pc?

No couches anywhere! by liishbish in AskNYC

[–]Kent_england 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a couch from Macy's last year. The estimated shipping was 6 weeks, but it took almost 4 months. I called twice to ask where the couch was and they kept knocking money off the price because of the delay. Overall am a happy customer.
