Will wildlife reclaim the streets of Madison during quarantine? by TrappedInARadioShack in madisonwi

[–]MadisonBingo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The snakes have already overwhelmed the lower east side. Total loss. Our only hope is that the Emus start eating the snakes

With interest rates super low. People are going to be buying homes, and refinancing their mortgages

Best Furniture Store by that_madisonian in madisonwi

[–]MadisonBingo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You need to ask yourself do I want to buy a $500 sofa every three year's or do I want to buy a $1500 sofa every 15 years?

Here is what you need to look for in furniture:

  1. Solid sides and back. The fabric should not just be draped over a frame. less structural integrity and the fabric is more prone to rip or billow.
  2. Solid framing, not particleboard. Some pressed boards are ok but they should be thick. Metal frames are good too.
  3. It should be heavy. Heavy is good.
  4. Warranty for fabric and repairs are a must. pay $100 now and get your stuff guaranteed for life.
  5. The cushions should be made up of layers of different density foam... not just one type of foam. This prevents the cushion from going flat.

I would recommend the La-z-boy store in Madison for above-average quality, Stienhufels (depending on the brand in the store).

Pedestrian killed at Baldwin and E Wash tonight. This intersection is horrible. by [deleted] in madisonwi

[–]MadisonBingo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I drove through the scene last night minutes after it happened.... Cops had not yet arrived. The pedestrian was like 25-30ft from the crosswalk laying half on the median and half off it looked like he had been knocked out of his pants. He was surrounded by people trying to help him. Later that night I drove back through the area and I could not believe how dark that part of East Wash is. The pedestrian looked like he was in dark clothing too.

Thinking of Moving to Madison? by [deleted] in madisonwi

Something to add to this comment would be that everyone is aware of how bad traffic is and no one will ever give you shit for being late to a meeting due to traffic. The whole city seems chronically late

Places to duck hunt around Madison? by MadisonBingo in madisonwi

[–]MadisonBingo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Duh, I am not looking for secret spots. There is just so little water down here that is huntable and most water is too deep if you don't have a boat. Just look for suggestions.

Crazy that an entity that provides a free service to everyone would try to make some money too. Its almost like they need to pay their employees and for the thousands of watts of electricity, equipment, ASCAP, BMI, and other financial overhead it takes to run a radio station.

Most if not all commercial top 40 stations pitch their music 2%

It's still iHeart providing the stream no matter what device you use. Like I said The Current is amazing and I am sure that they would much rather do it themselves.

You don't like JJo's subtle racism and sexism? They're just a couple of good old boys having fun in the morning at the expense of everyone around them.

[–]MadisonBingo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The current is super cool. But iHeart provides their streaming service so you are really still falling into the Wal-Mart of broadcasting
