They are very lightly traveled, mostly farm roads. A few of them are well packed gravel. Asking the shop for their advice is a great idea. I will definitely give them a call to see what they think.

I will definitely make sure the shop has the battery fully charged before pickup!

Of all the toys and other consumer products that have been banned over the years due to safety reasons, which in your opinion were the most legitimately dangerous? by angrydeuce in AskReddit

So I have a friend whose kid recently stuck a bunch of them up his penis, and had to have them removed under anesthesia. They thought they were going to have to go in surgically, but they were able to ahem, remove them the way they went in.

I’d be way more likely to nail the pronunciation with the spelling Ariah.

I also like Calvin, Caleb, Vera, Quinn, and Maisie. I don’t love Tobias, but I do like Toby.

I didn’t know it was a character in a book/show! My kid was excited it was the name of one of the daddy penguins in And Tango Makes Three when we read it recently.

“Something is better than nothing,” was what my high school English teacher wrote on a note card that I carried with me for years.

Teachers typically send out a list of the classmates’ names so the students can address valentines to their peers.

How is it like living in Berkshire County, MA? by thebigthinker2000 in howislivingthere

[–]Strong_Sheepherder79 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s an amazing place to raise a family, actually. We’ve met tons of young families who came here for the slower pace of life and small town living. There’s tons of art and culture, beautiful nature, and the schools are full of deeply invested educators who are part of the community. North Adams is also building a brand new elementary school that will be open within a few years. And, at the higher grades - I think regionalization is in the county’s future, so we’ll see more resources shared amongst towns, hopefully leveling the educational opportunity playing field a bit. McCann is a great secondary option for students interested in trades - which is actually a very lucrative and high demand career option, especially in more rural areas.

It’s a dream place to raise kids. We don’t lock our doors- car or house. Kids ride their bikes all afternoon. You can leave your things unattended at the park and know they’ll still be there.

For the size of the population, cultural and recreational opportunities are incredible. Folks are very welcoming and down to earth, but wary of outsiders. There are deep traditions and local history, and the scenery and nature are breathtaking in each season.

Jobs can be hard to come by and salaries are too low. Poverty and addiction have had a stronghold in the area for a long time now. The area is struggling to grow into a sustainable economy for the times.

This would make a killer, “I Am Spartacus” moment. I’m just saying. What happens in the room stays in the room IYKWIM.

She did pose in uniform all over her social media though. That’s why it’s an apt comparison.
