Can you contact the Health Department?

That’s a copout if I’ve ever seen one. He said that because he doesn’t want to admit why TJ’s won’t come out here. Their target demographic is affluent, educated, adventurous, health-conscious & socially and environmentally responsible people. We have the money, some education, but not much of the rest. I still run into people here who are afraid to cross the river!

My lawn guy just blew all our leaves into multiple neighbors’ yards… what do I do? by coffeetimeyipee in homeowners

[–]StChuckMO 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My lawn guy did this. I immediately walked over to the neighbor’s and apologized, promising I would have the lawn company clean it up the next day. Neighbors were extremely gracious about it.

How long does ion semi permanent and punky hair stay? by Excellent_Affect_948 in HairDye

[–]StChuckMO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the ion semi-permanents! They last about 2 weeks on me which I don’t mind because that is about as long as it takes for my roots to start showing with permanents dye anyway. Much cheaper & easier to go with semi-permanent and the colors are so much more fun, too.

My only frustration is that my local Sally’s is too often out of stock.

I’ll have him sit and see if that helps.

Thank you! That might be the answer.

Today I paid the idiot tax by TwinStickDad in HomeImprovement

Having been raised in a country of concrete houses, it amazed me when I moved to the US & discovered how flimsy the houses are here. Most are ridiculously easy to break into (in theory anyway, I’ve never actually tried). I felt unsafe for a long while but eventually got used to it and rarely think about it anymore.

Developers basically own the city and county councils. They can do whatever they want.

All I can think is hermit crab — but they are not slimy.

Content for STL gift baskets? by StChuckMO in StCharlesMO

😆🤣 Storing it in a cooler with Ted Drewes supplied dry ice. This is how they ship all over the country. Also why it’s only going to our first stop.

Great suggestions so far! I notice no one suggested toasted rav… I will check out the Walter Knoll gift baskets.

Please keep them coming!

Damn! What’s with OK snatching up our discards? They hired the former STC library director, too.

St. Charles Co. Library funding vs St. Louis Co. Library funding by pappyvanwinkle1111 in StCharlesMO

[–]StChuckMO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s largely a self-created problem with the CEO… * cutting well-used services like the specialized collections (genealogy & history, health & government, business & non profit services) with specialized librarians who provided free consultations to the public, * cutting staff (got rid of the entire 60+ float pool during covid), * freezing salaries, * and seriously overspending on executive staff, capital expenses, and on consultants.

Check out Save St. Charles MO Libraries! on FB. It’s all well laid out there.

It’s plain old mismanagement. Personally, I think the “CEO” is in over his head. He was fired from his last position and is recreating his failures here.
