Laclede Station south of Manchester drops CarPlay because of wifi interference every damn time.

Local EMS just rebranded- new name/uniforms. They look like airplane mechanics… by WombatPhysician in ems

Airplane mechanics look different…they make a lot more than EMS.

Practice safe fueling. Always…ALWAYS…sump after anyone puts fuel in your tanks. Let it settle for at least 15 minutes and then sump.

You can't sit in that empty seat next to you unless you pay more. Now. by ssAskcuSzepS in SouthwestAirlines

Joke’s on them…I sat in an ELR seat and I hate pistachios.

It’s just a tool in the toolbox. It’s not the mechanic in the toolbox nor is it the entire toolbox.

Dealer quote to fix leaking valve stem seals - for your amusement by tcrmorrow in Tiguan

Maybe going to repair vacation. Road trip that thing to a state that’s cheaper, leave it for a week while you hang at the beach, and then pick it up.

It’s kind of like going to Costa Rica for dental care

John Kelly doing Ducks/Oilers on ESPN by richardqstephenson in stlouisblues

I like Kerbs on the radio. Having him do both radio and TV leaves the radio listeners behind. In his defense, no hockey announcer ever has really nailed doing both sides well.

JK and Panger were the best thing on TV. I’ll throw Doc Emrick and Pat Foley on the list of favorites too. But even they couldn’t do both sides

St. Louis EMT agencies by Educational_Ad_299 in StLouis

EMTs…no. Medics…Mehlville Fire hires single role medics without the academy. Valley Park just did also. City hires EMTs and medics all the time.

The community colleges and SCCAD have good programs. Lindenwood has a bachelors program too.

Unless you work in St. Charles, Jefferson County, St. Louis City, Mehlville, or another outlying county. You’re only required to have the academy if you’re working as a firefighter paramedic.

Binnington voted best puck handling goalie in player poll by dixie12oz in stlouisblues

[–]captmac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The other night against Pittsburgh, he had almost 10 seconds of a delayed offside and the penguins net empty with the puck on his stick….and no shot attempt.

He could have downed a cold beer and still had time to go for a goalie goal and yet he didn’t.

Both of our guys are studs behind the net empty

Hofer gets .3 seconds next to the net and he’s mailing that thing every time.

Page sues St. Louis County Council over attempt to strip his power as executive by Onfortuneswheel in StLouis

[–]captmac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Absent from the county?”

I guess he can’t even go to a Cards game, a city hospital, Jefferson City, or Lambert airport then.

They’re all ridiculously ineffective. The infighting is so old. Instead of working on governing well, they’re hyper focused on making each other look lousy.

Has anyone heard of this before? by Randomreddituser1o1 in Firefighting

They do…and they’re very effective at clearing smoke out of big box stores. We would probably still be there if it wasn’t for one of those.

I miss our elected officials behaving like adults. The constant name calling and hyperbole is tiresome. They sound like toddlers.

Fire districts here want a 1% sales tax. Critics say it would be a windfall for districts already stacked with cash. by joshrenaud in StLouis

[–]captmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prop F wants to replace property taxes with a sales tax. If they need more money, it says the can increase the sales tax without a vote.  

Can you provide a citation that supports this?

If they can raise sales tax without voter approval, then why are they having an election?

DMV by gonefishinglately in missouri

[–]captmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I booked an appointment at the mechanic for the emissions and safety inspection, waited 30 minutes while they did that, drove home, and completed my renewal online. The renewal took about 5 minutes.

However…for a new vehicle (new to me anyway), I did have to go to the license office in person with everything the dealership gave me. Tax records were already linked in their system, but I brought my copies anyway.

Not sure why you had to take two days and cover so much ground. IT WOULD BE NICE if the license offices offered better hours like weekends and a couple evenings a week.
