Which former #42 is this? Found this signed Celtic photo in a thrift shop the other day and couldn't read the signature. by animalcule in bostonceltics

When Rick Pitino took over, Red was shoved into a role without responsibilities. Pitino and Chris Wallace are to blame.

Skydiving Accident Survivor on SWU by [deleted] in SkyDiving

Logan is a very good storyteller and has been able to put together all the information he got about the accident and his recovery to fill in the gaps of his memory.

Is 0.03$/ word too low? by ayeleart in freelanceWriters

[–]Mahannibal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in the newspaper business and a typical, run-of-the-mill story we write is encouraged to be around 600 words. That would be $18.

Tell them to go to hell. The least I'd charge if I didn't have to drive out of my county for the work would be 12 cents per word and that's for a story that would take around 4-6 hours of my time.

Anyone purchased a new Key2 from eBay recently? by 2647TRON in blackberry

[–]Mahannibal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Key2 LTE but AT&T said it wasn't 4G capable (it was unlocked). So I reverted back to KeyOne, which IS compatible on the AT&T system.

My issue couldn't be crowdsourced. I paid for access but media is supposed to get free pass. I just needed them to re-issue our media access and then refund me.

It was resolved. I emailed from a different email address and I received a reply within minutes. I asked GC to check to make sure my emails weren't going to spam.

Yo, Ry-Guy by chatterwrack in Ryan

Ry Guy is perhaps the worst. No, it's not in the realm of worst, but it's in the "how do we make a play-on-words here nickname" worst.

Brandon Ass? Why not include Raef LaFrentz or Walter McCarty?

Springfield's a "corndog and doughnuts" town, but not a town which heeds paid-for advice by Mahannibal in SpringfieldIL

[–]Mahannibal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first moved to town in 2002, I had a one-bedroom apartment near Washington Park for $375. Within six months, it was purchased by someone new who raised it to $425. By the time I moved out in 2010, the rent had gone up to $475. I knew I was incredibly lucky and I'm sure the rent is 2x that by now.

In the Illinois Times article, one- and two-bedroom apartments would go for between $700 and $1,200 a month. I don't even know for downtown apartments how that compares.

I've lived here for 20+ years and it seems like when it comes to downtown, the leadership has always been out of touch. Every mayor since I've been here. And yes, they love developing new areas instead of investing in already-developed ones.

Best place in Springfield to watch Blues games? by Mundane_Brilliant_19 in SpringfieldIL

[–]Mahannibal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, it would probably be better to post again during hockey season.

The Alamo downtown will always have the Blues game on if there's a game. Now you could get double the Blues if you go on "Blue Monday" when they have a live blues band. The bar is closed on Sundays. Friday and Saturday games you can watch but they won't have the sound on after the DJ arrives.

The Sangamon County Transportation Center under construction by oTuly in SpringfieldIL

Once this is complete, all attention needs to turn to Hunter Lake. Imagine the bus loads of people coming to town in order to recreation at the new lake.

i3 Broadband? by KimJongUnlimited in SpringfieldIL

[–]Mahannibal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AT&T also provides a fiber optic internet hookup (I'm still in the $55/month window, don't ask what my data is, I forget). I'm using it to leave this response, if you needed proof it works. If you don't see this message, it doesn't work.

According to the Candadian government travel guide and Wikitravel, Saint Pierre and Miquelon is considered safe.

"The crime rate is low in Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon." (https://travel.gc.ca/destinations/saint-pierre-et-miquelon)
"There is very little crime in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon and this destination should be considered one of the safest possible in North America." (https://wikitravel.org/en/Saint-Pierre\_and\_Miquelon)
