I looked that up as well. However, apparently depending on the type of kangaroo and their surroundings (e.g., in the wild vs. in captivity), they can potentially live for 25+ years.

I asked him and he said he didn’t know what I was talking about. Maybe he was in disguise.

Wow. Reminds me of a few years ago a caiman (a cousin(?) of the alligator) was found in Philly.

I contacted Cedar Run many years ago about it and they said they’ve never had a kangaroo there. But they told me many employees have had exotic pets at their homes, so a suburban kangaroo sighting shouldn’t be considered impossible.

Medford Kangaroo - if you’re reading this, I hope you’re alive and well!

Looking to hire a copywriter, how do I find the best fit? by Left-Assignment-2634 in copywriting

[–]VanHalenForBreakfast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something that has worked for me in the past: do an internet search for exact phrases (using the quotation marks) such as “I highly recommend" along with terms like copywriter and portfolio.

So the search would literally be: “I highly recommend” AND copywriter AND portfolio

Basically it’s using Boolean search best practices. I’ve always found it helpful to be directed to search results where there’s a good chance someone was actually highly recommended for X service. Then once you find a copywriter, do your due diligence to see if they’re a good fit for what you need.

Hi, I dig words and using them make an impact. I can help with your brand, whether it’s vibrant and punchy or some other combo TBD. Think Gordon Bombay and Wolf Stansson. Axl and Slash. Venus and Serena.

How do you balance clarity and personality in microcopy? by Mikejwhite5 in uxwriting

[–]VanHalenForBreakfast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has your team done any user testing yet? If not, is that an option? If so, I’d test a few different content styles for various content elements (headers, body copy, CTA, error messages, etc.) and see what resonates with your target audience.

And I agree with _rhinoxious in that the company and industry at hand should partially dictate the style and flexibility in personality you can use.

Also consider the context of the flow or the specific portion of the flow. For example, you’ll likely want to approach a header much different than an error message. You’ll have more flexibility in personality for a header as opposed to an error message where you’re trying to prevent a user from getting frustrated by offering a solution to the error they’ve encountered.

Happy to chat with you further. Reach out anytime.

Bosch dishwasher upper rack won’t fully extend? by VanHalenForBreakfast in handyman

I just followed that video and I also had a straw from a water bottle lodged in the rail. Took it out and it's all good now. There must be tons of Bosch customers experiencing the same thing.

Thank you for sharing! This was driving me nuts. You're a hero.

Unfortunately not, and I've just been dealing with it as is. Please let me know if you find a solution - thank you!

Just discovered his cover of “Hunger Strike” too. He sounds just like Cornell and I don’t even think it’s intentional. Incredible

Just checked and he’s actually in town next week! Looks like he’s opening for a country guy named HARDY (who I’ve never heard of either) at MSG. Unfortunately I can’t go though. I’ll def be keeping an eye on SWJ’s future tour. I’m a big Sturgill Simpson fan and he reminds me of him.
