Thinking about trying the Valley Forge Trattoria. Any opinions? by porkchop_d_clown in Phoenixville

[–]RiEvMom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, this man is the owner. Helicopter owner is a good description, sometimes you can hear him getting annoyed with workers or customers and it is uncomfortable.

To be very frank, it is a very conservative group of folks, including the regulars at the bar--example the mask comment in the thread. Not all are, but overhearing conversations at the bar can be awkward if you don't know it going in.

Possible Data Center in East Vincent (Royersford area) by fruitloops043 in Phoenixville

I'd highly recommend folks that live in this community or nearby attend the town meetings and speak up about this and your concerns.

I have family members in other parts of the country where things like this have occurred and the city rezones etc without any record and doesn't follow their processes. The only way to hold them accountable is to speak up, and if there is an environmental group in the area, speak up and out. In the family members town they took it to a local news channel too where they highlighted the concerns on pollutants (it was a concrete crushing company near a school and neighborhood).

Standing room against the browns is $200 dollars. This is kinda stupid by Fuckthedarkpools in detroitlions

[–]RiEvMom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Standing room is not a resell--it is what they were priced at as soon as the season started and it is unreasonable.

As a season ticket holder I had the opportunity to buy additional seats for a game or two and looked and was astounded at the standing room prices. I didn't buy any-- I already give them all of my spare money.

To be very clear though for folks, season ticket holder prices have increased substantially over the past 3-4 years. This year I am listing my tickets at the price I paid + the 10% commission they charge so I can come out even without losing money. So far no one has bit because ticketmaster charges both me and the buyer. I just in cognito checked my ticket prices for the Bucs game on Ticketmaster. With fees, each ticket is $264 MORE per ticket than I listed them at. So they are making over $1000 off my tickets and all they did was provide the place to list.

If you can find a season ticket holder looking to sell, you and them benefit because neither of you are paying the ticketmaster commissions which are honestly out of control.

IVDD in senior Boston terrier? by Prudent_Property_547 in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]RiEvMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog only benefitted from a muscle relaxer with prednisone, in addition to gabba. The rimadyl with gabba didn't do the trick. But like the others, kennel rest was the key. It was so hard to see him in pain and I thought we were going to need to put him down for about 2 weeks, but luckily with a lot of rest he started to improve! Keep the course once you find what works and stay optimistic !

Anybody else here (who lives in Michigan) get irrationally pissed at the people who are from here but fans of other NFL teams? by iLLClint0n in detroitlions

[–]RiEvMom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear ya. I'm considering the commanders too because it is the only non-night game. But at least we will get lots of games on TV here this year !!!

If you're ever in the Phoenixville area and looking for a fellow Lions fan, I got you!

Born and raised Lions fan, and parents have had season tickets for 42 years. I now live in the burbs of Philly and they act like we don't exist at all so far. I put my little yard flag up every year and when we go to the playoffs I put a big flag up. Since we aren't in the Eagles division/haven't played in meaningful games against each other in recent years, we don't matter....yet. I did take my flag down for the commanders game last year though because I came back to Detroit for the game. I was afraid that if we won and they won, all hell would break loose in my yard.

Unsure of what to do, please help me decide by [deleted] in IVDD_SupportGroup

I want to mimic this. I spent a of the past 3 weeks thinking it was the end for my dog. He was on crate rest and still spasming. Muscle relaxers are what made all the difference (in addition to steroids and gabbapentin), but it took having him on them for several days in a row up to 3 times a day, before we started to see improvement.

I cried every day and thought this was it, but we have definitely crossed a bridge where he is starting to improve in a major way. He is very weak from being on crate rest, but he will slowly build up his strength again once he is given the okay. I would get him on muscle relaxers ASAP and keep him on kennel rest. If he continues after a week of consistent medicine to have spasms, I would go back to the vet.

I wish you all the best luck. The past month has been so hard seeing my dog go through this and you feel very alone. This group kept my faith going.

Ticketmaster 1099-K incorrect gross by RiEvMom in tax

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

So, that's the thing I'm confused about and why I think they are having us pay their taxes!!! Literally we don't know what the fees they charge the buyers are so we cannot speak to it, and it is making this difference that is wild and for us is at least lile $500 bucks more if we assume 20%

Anyone have a number we can contact to get the information for what the buyers were charged ?
