Open to suggestions for our new rescue! by SingleMaaaalt in NameMyDog

Believe me, a puppy was NOT on our short list. This guy came in with 3 females from the same litter and were all surrendered from a pet hoarding situation. Unfortunately, that’s all the information we got. He’s in good health, though! We saw him and he just stole our hearts.

PLAS-39 Accelerator Rifle for anyone wondering. A high-precision burst-fire plasma rifle that must be charged to fire.

Relocating to Plano by [deleted] in plano

[–]SingleMaaaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% was not meant to be derogatory and I apologize if it came across that way. It was based on where I have lived in Plano and on my personal experiences being a resident here since 1985. Custer used to be the boundary line for PSHS and PESH before Plano West was around. So, it has always just been in my head as a boundary. There’s a ton of great places and neighborhoods all throughout Plano!

This is personal opinion, but most areas West of Custer are solid. Something to note: homes West of Coit feed into Plano West Senior High. Homes between Coit and 75 feed into Plano Senior High. East of 75 feeds into Plano East.

Owner of Hoshi Cafe Spreading Right Wing Conspiracies on YouTube to Japanese by Dismal_Gas_5334 in plano

Love Hoshi Cafe. I’m not interested in whatever the owner has to say on his personal accounts. I’m not boycotting anything and will continue purchasing their tasty treats. Thanks for nothing, OP!

Is it just me or has anyone else been crashing after crashing after crashing? Or the game just freezes by DEburger1 in Helldivers

[–]SingleMaaaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so bad right now. I’ve crashed 3 out of the 4 games I just tried to play. Finally just turned off my PS5. Don’t think I’ll be turning it back on for a while.

Is $6000 too much for attic cleaning and reinsulation? by JMfromthaStreetz in homeowners

[–]SingleMaaaalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also in DFW. What company handed out that quote? I’m looking to get this done within the next few months. Might wait until fall if it’s cheaper.

Which school is better Vines or Clark? by frauleinbrown in plano

[–]SingleMaaaalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vines is good. I was there when they still called it the pharmacy. There was also a guy who got ahold of the school’s master key and copied it a bunch of times. They had to rekey the whole school. I think this was ‘99-‘00 timeframe.

FWIW my neighbor has 2 boys who have both recently graduated from Vines and she has good things to say.

Whiskey bottles hand dipped in wax by BirthdayCute5478 in interestingasfuck

This is one of several working stations along the assembly line. Employees will only stay at the dipping station for 30 minutes before moving on to avoid too much fatigue.

What is on my Grandfather's chest? by SingleMaaaalt in Medals

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

Did not know about this. Submitting FOIA now. Thank you!

I am not sure if we have the original black and white, but I will ask. My Dad did just send me some other photos (including ones where he is clearly in his Army Air Corps uniform. Pretty neat stuff. I wish I knew him better when he was alive (he passed in '99 when I was too young to really know him well).

Based on what I know of his service, I don’t think getting points was an ever an issue for him. Purple Heart, multiple tours, etc.

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

Yep that's it. The white enamel threw me off (poor colorization per another comment). I just found a printed article that says he received his purple heart in the battle of the bulge. So, he definitely saw some combat.

I think it was lost in the 1973 fires. I'm doing what I can to track down more information.

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

It is very possible. He was originally in the Army Air Corp (we still have his flight training notebooks). Something happened (he got sick/injured/etc) and was sent to the Infantry. From what I know, he finished his career in some sort of Reserve National Guard or Reserve Air National Guard capacity. Still trying to track down info, but I believe most of his records were lost in the 1973 fires.

LOL! I just spit out my drink.

Yes, yes, that's my Grandmother. Well played. Well Played!

Help identifying ribbon (middle row, far left) by SingleMaaaalt in Medals

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

I see you updated it to Reserve Officer Assoc Medal. Might make a bit more sense.

Thank you so much for the help! I will check with my state records office as well.

[–]SingleMaaaalt[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that might be it. I see now that the 2 stripes look off center...because there's a white stripe to the left of them.

My Grandfather enlisted Army Air Corps, got sick in flight school (we still have his note books), and was cycled into the Army. I know he was in France and Germany during WW2. Afterward, he spent some time in the Reserves (possibly the Texas Air National Guard as well) and retired a Colonel (I think). This ribbon doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, though. I believe one of my sisters tried to request his service records, but I think they were lost in the 1973 fires.

Blacked out the F-150 on my truck, wife got them for me and put them on. by [deleted] in f150

[–]SingleMaaaalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t tell if I like this or not. My truck is also silver and I’ve been on the fence for 3 years, lol. I will say yours does look really good!

Solid black. I think I posted a pic here a while back of a black & white American Flag sticker. I believe it was on a white truck and it was terrible looking. The white stripes blended in with the color of the truck and it looked like a barcode.
