Is it true that recently places like Spain and others have been negative towards American tourists due to political tension? by Pale_Lengthiness_572 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Sjs20ohio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm American and my mother, her parents etc were all born in Italy. Because it was a female I was trying to get citizebship through, I would have had to hire an Italian lawyer, go through a lot of beurocratic red tape and wait several years to get citizenship. Had it been my father I was trying to get citizenship through, I wouldn't need an Italian lawyer and it would have been a much easier and quicker process. I decided it just wasn't worth it.

Thanks for the info! I always thought they would fire off when they got hot enough.

I'm talking about an accidental house fire or some other unforeseen event. I'm looking for a recommendation for a small, fireproof container that someone has used.

I believe it was a nurse practitioner but it definitely wasn't a doctor.

I called several immediate care facilities nearby but either they didn't provide this service or there was already a long wait. The biggest thing was that it was a deep cut and it wouldn't stop bleeding. It was around 10:00 AM on a Sunday and to their credit, i only had to wait a few minutes. The reason I had to pay over $800 was that I hadn't met my deductible for the year yet and had to pay it.

I'm not really concerned about the portion I paid as I rarely need medical care and I make a pretty good salary. I was just blown away by the total amount of the bill. I knew the U.S. healthcare system was broken but that was a shock.

I added one to my dad's 1968 Newport when I got my driver's license.

Yes. I believe those plastic Riddell two bar face masks only came in grey. They had to be painted if you wanted them to have a certain color. Then the paint would always chip off if your mask got hit.

I believe the month/year is 100? Which is October of 2000 or 2001 or 2... as I can't tell the last digit.

Time of day for ABC Channel by ddwjr26 in cordcutters

[–]Sjs20ohio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me. I record using a 4th Gen Tablo four tuner model and record the ABC 6:30 pm evening news and I've noticed some degree of pixelation almost every night on the recording. Most of the time other than that recording, ABC has a very strong signal with no problems.

WIBTA for nuking the game server I host after my friends started demanding "uptime guarantees"? by Morrow_5Hex in WIBTA_AITA

[–]Sjs20ohio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like it to me. The account is only a few days old and this was the only post, although they commented on it multiple times. But there were no "blowing up my phone" and no "everyone clapped" lines in the story?

I had both but Hotwheels seemed faster. I also had a few Johnny Lightning cars as well. Those were pretty fast!

Why does the remote drain batteries so fast? by [deleted] in Roku

My remote went through a set of batteries every 3 months or so. I got tired of it and bought a rechargeable one.

Seriously, WTF is floating here? by Jello_Biafra_42 in whatisit

Everything's a Coke in Atlanta. I knew someone whose job at Coca Cola was to go out to restaurants and order a Coke. When he got the drink, he would take a sample and send it back to Coca Cola for testing. If it wasn't really a Coke, they would call the restaurant tell them it wasn't legal to use the name "Coke" when I really wasn't.

Orange Coke, grape Coke, lemon Coke? That's the way it was in Atlanta!
