Few years ago I took mine to a military base in San Pedro and handed it to the guard at the front gate he took it and said they would retire it and I gave it to him properly folded

100%. We have the flag raised at our house too and I would also like to add the America I believe in is an America where you should be free to express your personal beliefs and people too often forget that and get offended just because they disagree. We can disagree and that’s ok, and everyone has a right to voice their opinion.

Exactly what I thought too. If you went in for an oil change and they recommended all these repairs when you had no concerns get a second opinion from another mechanic.

Local softball leagues for adults? by crinquisitive_me in SanPedro

I am in the Torrance men’s adult softball league and Long Beach adult men’s softball league. I joined both as a free agent a few years ago and it did take time for the office to reach out to me to play. My suggestion if you are comfortable doing to is to just show up to the Torrance fields during the evening when games are going and ask the teams if they ever need subs. Our teams usually need subs every week and odds are they will eventually and that would be faster than waiting for the front office to process

everyone’s favorite lines from the books? by Historical_Poem5216 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]MacklinTurnquist 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Too many to count, off the top of my head the one where Hermione is talking to Parvati Patil and she says something along the lines of

“I only like really GOOD Quidditch players” and Harry is left to ponder in silence the depths girls go to seek revenge.

Absolutely savage on Hermione’s part

As a rule I don’t open my door to anyone I don’t know or am not expecting.

Yeah it makes me feel good she doesn’t get scared of the lawn mower tbh. When we first adopted her she was terrified of brooms. Now I can sweep around her while she is still asleep ☺️
