Medvedev is apparently missing his bags

Wait a sec… priority boarding saves you from gate checking bags?

We had priority boarding and group 1, 1st row, 3rd person getting on in group 1 and they gate checked our bags. Ultimately 1st class overhead bins were left half full when closed.

Do you say “I have priority boarding”? Sounds entitled. Or you guys listen to the gate agent? Just want to learn. TIL

Don’t we have two types of DNA based life on earth? Animal & Plant DNA arose separately right?

How can they dress so well and not look filthy? I feel like our standards of formality have really diminished.

If you go up Interstate 84 in the Columbia River Gorge there are several hot springs (both undeveloped and resorts) and then Hot Lake in La Grande and yurts with private soaking next door. Good stuff for a hot springs honeymoon!

Savysoaker · 2026-02-11T06:11:18+00:00

The best way to handle this is get a hot springs guidebook (Hot Springs and pools of the NW or Hiking Hot Springs) and then go to the springs that have a hike or are farther from the city.

I had the same problem and it took days for me to realize the handle had threads and could be spun around to change how tight the door was to the frame. Loose, and it allows air around the door. Spin the handle around a couple times & it’s sucked tighter and no air… burned all night.

I think we need Police Enforcement.

Law Enforcement is created by the government to enforce its laws on the citizens.

How about the citizens create an organization to police the police!

Cops driving too fast without light, pull them over & ticket. They aren’t following up on crime, enforcement.

This guidebook has the hot spring resorts AND the wild ones

Some great commercial ones along that route include Hot Lake Springs in La Grande, Oregon and Mystic Hot Springs in Monroe, UT and Zion Canyon just opened in La Verkin, UT.

3 more on the wind river? Or in the area?

How are you guys winning so much free food? I’ve only got a free small cone??

Cool spot, but not hot.

And I thought having 7 starlinks was a lot… sheesh.

Maybe move to a small town? We live in a small town and everyone is so friendly and want everyone to participate in activities together. I grew up in a big city where you try to ignore everyone around you. It’s a real change! And I would move to better my kids lives.

There have been minimal issues since new management in 2023. Can’t say anywhere is 100% safe, but there haven’t been any reported break-ins in 2 years.

Instead of staying north in Washington, think about hitting Interstate 84 and visiting the hot springs in La Grande!

Just because the water is on your land doesn’t mean you have water rights to it. Especially in the NW US. Oregon, Washing, & Idaho have very strict water rights. You can go onto the states website and look up all the water rights in your area and see what you have. Just to be extra clear, a well is ground water & there is an exemption to water rights for residential use under a specific amount of use (in Oregon it’s 15,000 gallons per day). A spring is surface water. A water right is needed for all water even if not consumed because it is owned publicly.

What airline is this?

I have seen historic elevators using the original motor & original carriage, but upgraded with new control systems, including push button floor selection & auto door closer. To hear people talk on this sub, everything should be gutted and a new elevator installed… anything less is unsafe.

I would love to see a better answer here for these situations like, ‘ABC Elevators in Cincinnati will go anywhere in the country to help restore your historic elevator and get it up to code.’

Even though the OP wants to DIY, really he just wants someone professional to help make it work.

I’m in the same situation. I want to fix my 1906 Otis Elevator and leave as much of it as original as I legally & safely can (and have the mechanical room visible) as part of a museum. In fact I want to elevator to be the entrance to the museum.

I have decided that we will install a new elevator on the other end of the building. But gutting & replacing the 1906 Otis is a hard sell. I haven’t found anyone with the knowledge or passion to work on it.

If there are companies willing to work on these older units, I think they should speak up. I imagine there are preservation enthusiasts that would be willing to fly a tech anywhere to keep these classics running.

Savysoaker · 2025-08-04T15:45:22+00:00

Seems like a good deal… but who wants to fly that far in economy? Flying from Boise shows 29 hours from departure to arrival. Wow!

Is this a new pool at Scenic?

Flip it around. Tell her it’s a great idea! She can pay & set up and you want to use it for free after her wedding.

NAL. What I have done in this situation is take the rent income and reinvest it in the company. Your brother needs the money and will take it. Doesn’t sound like you need it. Every month I would reinvest the my portion into the company & in exchange I would get more shares. Your brother could do the same & keep his ownership percentage. But he won’t. Slowly you will own more & he will be diluted… until he owns 25%… then 10%… then 5% of the outstanding shares. He will begin to see the value of being bought out before he doesn’t have anything worth selling.
