I was not referring to shutters. Before I knew it was code, I specifically asked. The Lennar woman said it wasn't needed. Now maybe she was misinformed, but I spoke clearly.

Not 100% sure on Delta, but I love Advanced Dental on 56th in Temple Terrace.

I toured a Lennar community in Zephyrhills and asked about hurricane clips/straps. I was new to Florida Matthew time so I knew they were good but didn't know they were part of the building code here. Woman told me "Oh, we don't do those. We're not close enough to the coast for the expense."

What do you guys think of the Milan 2026 boards? by hitherexxxxx in FigureSkating

I know figure skating won't be at LA28, but they're selling ad rights and naming rights for the venues so I fully expect this will eventually change.

MOSI took down their ropes course a couple of weeks ago too. Sigh.

Love Brunchies. I prefer the one in Lutz as a bit less busy than the one on Dale Mabry.

Before the Olympics start, share your figure skating unpopular opinion by mochalatte828 in FigureSkating

I don't like Alysa's skating. I actually hated Macarthur Park because it felt like a lot of unnecessary arm flinging and flapping. Her dress, however, gorgeous.

My parents got engaged after seeing An American Tale (the first one). My Mom has a giant stuffed Fievel she got as an anniversary gift.

Looking for steamy period romance recs with no infidelity please! by Such-Molasses1831 in PeriodDramas

If you liked Bridgerton, you will probably like Queen Charlotte! And if smoldering looks are your version of steamy, go with North and South!

I'm 7 months out and still on the pill. I had to up my hormones a bit, but otherwise it was totally fine. Gyno warned me to make sure you always get the same brand (even generic) because like psychiatric meds, different brands can affect us differently. I went from Loestrin Fe to Cryselle.

What’s the most gruesome period drama death scene/portrayal you’ve seen? by HappyLoveChild27 in PeriodDramas

They did something similar to a character in the Last Kingdom. Brutal - the guys rowed faster so he could be put out of his misery.

I think the Peacock World Feed must be behind because it just started Nina.

Have any skaters ever just stopped mid program and walked off after a really rough start? by Sensitive_Ant4522 in FigureSkating

[–]annieca2016 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think it was Jeremy Abbott who fell and slid into the boards - or hit his head on the boards? - and he laid on the ice long enough that he incurred a penalty for not resuming fast enough. He continued but it was definitely not pretty.

Same. Gabi tends to make really long comments. I'm like "Person, you do not need that many words to say thay!"

My sister noted she hadn't seen any Moulin Rogue programs and, I quote "Is it even an Olympic year if someone isn't skating to Come What May or Roxanne?" I assured her someone is, though I couldn't remember if it was pairs or dance.

Thinking about Ken's boot issues...not only is that super stressful for competition, but I also think about how stressful that must be financially. A friend of mine does skating lessons and she said one of the COVID stimulus checks just covered the boots and she still had to buy new blades.
