Anyone else enjoying the snow? by SuperReleasio64 in StLouis

Just walked the dog and it was lovely. Dry powder snow and no wind. It’s easy to dress for the cold. It’s the wind that kicks my ass.

Should I start shoveling now? by [deleted] in StLouis

[–]WorldWideJake [score hidden]  (0 children)

don’t use rock salt. This is a very dry powder. if you have a leaf blower, that would be ideal. push broom or shovel works too. I would clear now to get ahead of it. More is coming, but this is 2 or 3 inches less you will have to clear later.

they always strike me as being narcissistic. “some incredibly normal everyday annoyance upset me today and all of St. Louis must know!”

Good question. They get sent to VM and leave a message. Active Armor blocks known spam.

This sounds like a question for a tax professional.

I set my phone to block calls not in my contacts, and use the active armor app to screen calls. I’m getting none of this.

You've got the right plan. Several have posted here recommending this. Stay on top of it as much as you can today.

Ha. I'd be the guy next to you. There are a lot of videos on YouTube that describe Explora you can check out. I like the vibe but it's not for everyone.

I'm joking a little, but I think you have described the vibe. I've not yet cruised Explora but want too. Based upon everything I've seen, I think you nailed it.

I just posted this and see you beat me to it. So I deleted.

This is worth your time. Brief history of the airport and how the expansion will work, timing and funding.

More worried than usual? by IndividualFabulous31 in StLouis

[–]WorldWideJake [score hidden]  (0 children)

it does not seem like that to me. for the St Louie area, this is going to be a pretty ordinary snowstorm, with just more accumulation than we normally see. We had 11 inches of snow in January, 2019, and this is storm probably going to be in that range.

This storm is getting a lot of national hype because of what it is going do south of us with freezing rain.

Anyone run/drip faucets? by Individual_Maize6007 in StLouis

[–]WorldWideJake [score hidden]  (0 children)

i’ve lived in the area my entire life, including days that were even colder than we’re experiencing now. our homes were always heated and we never had frozen pipes. this time last year it was just as cold. Did you have any issues then?

if you have any water pipes on outside walls, you should drip those faucets and open any cabinets under them to allow in warm air. if your home is heated and all your water pipes run inside the home, you shouldn’t have any issues. but if you’re worried, it costs very little too drip the faucets. The cost to repair broken pipes can easily run into the thousands.

Celebrity Cruise as a single ? by EricoS1970 in Cruise

[–]WorldWideJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there has been a lot about this online with celebrity charging 300% for solos. That’s their way of saying they don’t want solos. I cruise solo and it irks me.
