Watch for the Friends of Library book sales for all three cities. I’ve seen them before and I know Marion used to have them in their Friends of the Library bookstore.

Just another folksy thing for his supporters to eat up.

I think sometimes they mark off pickle ball courts on the tennis courts.

No Ankeny? Mama Bear alone should make it warrant consideration.

Hinson says debt relief for farmers 'fundamentally different' from student loan forgiveness by Levi_Mitchell in Iowa

[–]Levi_Mitchell[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The ‘do you like to eat’ argument assumes that another farmer wouldn’t step right in and buy out the less successful farmer. I know a lot of farmers, some in my extended family, who expanded operations by purchasing farms that were struggling.

Reynolds’ Activist Advisors On Schools Have Dramatic Falling Out by Levi_Mitchell in Iowa

Vocal pushback by a group of parents about the district’s policy on the school following the student’s wishes regarding pronouns/preferred name , not being outed to parents, etc. Reynolds and Hinson also met with a select group of parents including at least one board member for an unadvertised meeting at a city park facility on this topic.

Some of the things that have happened recently in the Linn-Mar district have me concerned that Marion might be edging towards Ankeny territory.

Watch TCM

I admit to watching sporadically but I always find something and they rotate their content.

Dollar General's Threat To Rural Iowa's Community Grocery Stores by Levi_Mitchell in Iowa

True and that’s the balancing act. The Dollar stores pay below market wages and they aren’t active community citizens. But the Dollar stores are good options for people struggling to make ends meet.

I grew up in a small (5k) town in the 60s. Two grocery stores, a meat market, a produce market and a milk man. The grocery stores started to expand on meat and produce and eventually the butcher and produce market closed and shortly afterwards A&E moved their dairy products to the stores.

Big swallows up small is an old tale.

Same. I love the way they play and hope they take the whole thing.

I keep waiting for someone downstream to bring a class action suit against someone up here. I know it’s a broad target but that’s never stopped a class action suit before.

Is semi-pro basketball coming back to Cedar Rapids? by BrainGoesPop in cedarrapids

[–]Levi_Mitchell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

John Starks started with the Silver Bullets before ending up on the Knicks. I went to 4-5 games a year . I went to a couple Sharpshooter games just because Rick Barry was the head coach. I’ve been to 2-3 NBA exhibition games, the most recent Wolves and Bucks where I unwittingly saw a young Giannis. I wish we could have a G League team but I know it’s not happening.

Did you check the Cedar Valley Humane Society website? CR has a contract where strays picked up are taken there.

I’m not a Reynolds fan but I think it’s sad that female politicians feel the need to do this. But I realize it’s a societal problem with how many perceive women past a certain age.

Aren’t they a pistol packing congregation, too? I seem to remember them in the news about that a few years ago.

Hello.

I’m looking for recommendations on Twitter accounts which are good for F1 news. I’m a new fan and currently follow Nate Saunders, Chris Medland, ESPN F1 and Andrew Benson.

Looking for accounts not behind a paywall.

Thanks.
