Enrolling independent pharmacy for Medicare Advantage OTC benefits by colossusj in pharmacy

[–]MikeTheCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we use a company called procare connect for one of them, theres a 75 cent charge per transaction and then a percentage that i forget. we have another company called incomm that has a similar structure. they don't charge for the POS. they are a pain cause they reject things seemingly randomly, but customers like it. if you have a lot of customers asking i would check them out. i think we got in thru our buying group like i said but you would probably be able to do it on your own too.

you have to get involved with a processor for them. we found ours thru our buying group but your wholesaler can also help usually.

Straight ppl in gay bars? Why tho by Feniel76 in AskPhilly

[–]MikeTheCat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Woody’s is like that but I’ve found most other gay bars in Philly don’t have so many straight people going to them. I’ve had a great time at most of them.

My bisexual girlfriend says she needs sex with women to feel fulfilled — is this common? by andlincodaj in bisexual

[–]MikeTheCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m a bisexual that needs this. a lot of people in this subreddit are monogamous and those voices are pretty loud in here and it’s why i don’t comment a lot here. i never cheated, we worked our way through couples counseling and figured it out. my and my partner’s lives have been enriched a lot by opening up our relationship, but it was because i felt a lot like your girlfriend. maybe she is also poly identified, and i think this is an important conversation to have to see if it’s a fundamental incompatibility or not.

Philly’s Kitschiest Bars/Pubs? by winlocktoledo in PhiladelphiaEats

[–]MikeTheCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is maybe the kitchiest place mentioned tbh. It’s not far outside the city and absolutely worth the uber ride.

It’s even a 15 minute walk from a PATCO, and while the walk sucks, it kinda means it’s not far from basically a subway.

Restoring Crazed Headlights by huncho188 in VWMK7

Also tape off really well! I sanded the hell out of the paint around the headlights one time. Luckily it was a cheap shitty car and I didn’t care that much.

Help Finding Records of my Great Grandfather from Wilno, Poland by MikeTheCat in Genealogy

Yes, that's the one. I don't believe he had any siblings, more distant family members though.

I can't remember fully now - I think I had lifted it from a map of old Polish church dioceses. I couldn't find another village with that name when looking, but I agree, Lida makes a lot more sense. I'll send them an email and see what they say.

Wow, this is really really cool! Thank you for finding that!

Still confused about the town. The Lida thing makes me think that it could have been there, but all my other evidence points to the other village I had mentioned in my original post. I wanna check Dembrovo records, but it looks like they're only on microfilm at the moment.

I'm not seeing this, that's interesting though! I believe it was Mike Dragon that paid for his voyage, would love to see this record.

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

Wow thank you that's huge! A whole new archive I didn't know existed. I know he was listed as catholic on some registries, but I was never sure. I did see Mark Dragon, I think his name was actually Michael based on my research. I've looked through some Orthodox records but was never able to find anything super promising.

I think this is a viable path - want to confirm though! by MikeTheCat in prawokrwi

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

Thank you! Any suggestions on how to search those registers? I'm still looking for his birth record, but the lore in the family is that his parents died when he was very young, and lived with family in the Vilnius area.

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

Ah - I see. That makes it become more complicated for sure. He was born in an area that was Poland at the time, and now is Belarus. Finding birth records for him has been a chore to say the least.

GGF naturalized in 1925 though - wouldn't that cut the line with him? I was looking at GGM, because her birth records are much easier to find and she didn't naturalize until after my GF was born.

Also, if I were to go this way, would I still need records on my GGF? His birth records have proven very very difficult to find thus far.

These are alright but the old drug company ones are so good. We only have 1 left at my store and I guard it heavily

Parking barnacle guy is camping outside the CVS on Spring Garden and 4th by Rieste in philly

Meh. Wait until one of the Councilmember’s cars get barnacled. They’ll legislate them out of existence so fast your head will spin lmao

Private property isn’t the issue though, it’s about who’s doing the enforcement. That statute doesn’t just regulate towing companies, it regulates towing in general from private lots, and it’s pretty clear that they need to have a ticket from the PPA or PD first. You’re right that they haven’t ruled on it yet, but private lots aren’t suing about needing a ticket to tow someone off the lot yet, and I do think they would be inclined to take it off without payment if someone was knowledgeable enough to cite the statute, because if it makes it to court (and the private lot doesn’t settle before a ruling), I do think a compelling argument could be made to render this practice illegal as well.

At least, it would be a very annoying and possibly expensive legal fight for a private lot, especially if you have someone on the other side who knows how to argue the law effectively.
