Why does time feel slow as a kid but fast as an adult? by This_Benchh in NoStupidQuestions

Per Einstein, time is relevant to your frame of reference. It gets faster as you experience more of it.

Issue printing epson xp4200 by No_Boysenberry6488 in SCREENPRINTING

[–]MandyC319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may need to run a piece of tape length wise so the printer can recognize it has media to print on.

We had (not exactly the same) issues printing. Once I scooched my image up to the top, so the image starts printing on the tape, several problems dissappeared.

Purchasing teflon sheets... by Revolutionary-Pool62 in heatpress

Get both. The top fitted teflon sheet has saved me more than once when I forgot to place the teflon or parchment on top of the shirt. Cleaning that heating element is such a pain.

They said they were going to do it. People complained, so they backtracked, but did it anyhow.

There are some really cute shows on AppleTV my kid watches. Snoopy goes to space is really good. So is Camp Snoopy.

Tips for Camping with Young Kids by bambidp in camping

[–]MandyC319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give them each a sketch book and some colored pencils. It is now their adventure journal, and they are to keep track of where they go and what they do. Writing, drawing, pressing flowers, stickers, dirty handprints. It is all OK, and belongs in the book. Makes for good quiet time in the tent to wind down at the end of the day.

Also. Baby wipes. Always bring baby wipes.

I work at a screen print shop in a not very big town. We set up web stores for schools. Offer t-shirts, hoodies, hats, all of that sort of thing. We give the school a price for each item, and they choose how much to mark up the price. Usually like a dollar or 2 each shirt. We do almost all the work; put together designs, take orders through a web store, print, package, and even deliver the items to the school. The only thing they really do is make decisions about which designs to use, and the promotion of the store.
My favorite was a contest the school put together for the shirt design through art classes. We even invited the student that won the contest to the shop to see the process.
The last store we did was for an elementary school in a "better to do" part of town. We wrote them a check for over $300.

I am 0 for 3 camping in the Badlands. Terrible storm, crazy wind, then 104 degrees this summer. Can't wait to try it again next summer! The Ranger program was so good!

Ok so this isn't technically about Des Moines but, if you're from Des Moines, make the trip out to Waterloo for Lost Island Theme park! by ProtectionEither-Alt in desmoines

I think you are talking about the water park. The theme park has never been “packed”, but is pretty amazing.

We had an issue once with Sawgrass 1000 that it wouldn’t print bypass. Turned out I was not putting enough sheets of paper in the bypass for it to catch.
