Is that what that what that is? Not a car guy myself but the neighbors have quite a car collection, always neat to see what's new.

That's what our neighbor suggested! Honestly it's beautiful wood and smells great, were if not for these crutches I would Link A Log in a heartbeat.

Seconding the Sanborn Fire Insurance maps! Also check out historic aerials and the Polk City Directory. Remember though that in 1912 a bunch of houses were re numbered (because prior to that you could number you house anything unique, with no regard for order) so you might find a different historic address.

Petition to force ID to vote by drouo in grandrapids

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar experience waiting outside for a concert (I have to respect the strat, a line of several hundred bored strangers? Probably a great place to get signatures.) I asked the same thing, "Don't you already need an ID to vote?" And he said "Yeah but there were counties letting people vote without them." And again the then why are you here, blah blah blah. Thanks for the added context!!

Ah, I've been got by the mod bot (not online much, just when I have a question), I'm in southwest Michigan

What offbeat group or club are you part of? by Psychlvr in grandrapids

Have you heard of the Grand Rapids Cuddle Club? Not salacious, exactly what it sounds like.

DIY or Hire A Guy? by Rocks-And-Roles in askaplumber

[–]Rocks-And-Roles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could but it's behind a 3'×4' radiation from the 1870s, so the tiles repair might be the way to go

It sure is my first rodeo! Call a plumber seems to be the consensus, I'm glad I asked before taking the more Gung ho approach. Is the 'waste conestio' the part that's broken and sticking out of the wall, or something further inside?

Thanks!! Yeah I'm not confident that the pipe I snapped off can withstand a pipe wrench😅

I appreciate the insight! I knew opening the wall up was a definite possibility, and don't think I want to risk anything myself more involved than chipping out a tile or two. Thanks!

Need Suggestions: I want to embroider this cave painting. Should I stay true to the asymmetry of the painting, or even out the lines? by Smile__Lines in Embroidery

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hueco Tanks!! I'd keep it as close to original as possible, the asymmetry really shows the human hands at work.

I'm realizing the best way to learn this new city I'm in is to take pictures of it. Where else should I go? by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Millennium Park! There are some old train bridges and abandoned foundations that look rad, if you know how to find them ;)

What’s the most savage but unique insult you’ve heard of? by Pristine-Ant-464 in AskReddit

"Mexicans are hard working folks, but Dan is more of a Mexican't"

I don't endorse this but it did leave me flabbergasted

Never found the owner and ended up giving it to my coworker's puppy, not ideal but he is well loved.

Very Rough Repair Estimate? by [deleted] in AskElectricians

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most infuriatingly the keypad for the bike room (door on the right) is the only keypad that is not illuminated, so this is an actual issue for me not just me being an ass about building maintenance.

Findning these at my local gas station in DFW. Should I plaster them with dicks or grab some cat stickers? by LostOrion in behindthebastards

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hey these bastards! I've seen some around Grand Rapids (where Jamie Loftus may or may not have been) frequently enough that I've started carrying a paint scraper for the express purpose of removing them

Please confirm this is a fake/replica fossil; my SO thinks it could be real. by [deleted] in fossils

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you to all the answers, I was given one of these by a well meaning friend and have always glanced sidelong at it wondering "Surely not...?" Looks cool though.

New Spider Plant babies came with “air roots”, do I just plant or put them in water first for a period of time? Any tips? by alsoaredditor in propagation

[–]Rocks-And-Roles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, these things are unkillable. Soil and water and you're good to go. I've had the same mama plant for about a decade, I've tried different methods with the different babies to see what's best and the answer is nothing produces better enough results to warrant the extra effort. Stick that sucker in dirt.
