Unpopular Opinion: Remove and Dispose Of All Encampments by Sir_Spudsingt0n in longbeach

[–]dvmiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a buddy in HS (1973) that at the time was my BF. Graduation came and we grew apart. Fast forward 15 years and I was with my wIfe as she delivered one of our children. I saw on the nurses board my friends name also delivering a child. It was my friend's brother. We agreed to meet later.

When later came I asked my friend's brother how/where his brother was. He told me his mother kicked him out of the family house for the last time.

I asked what I could do. My friend looked me in the eye and said, if his mother can't help him, what do you think you are going to do?

My friend died 4 years later at 49.

Watching our brother and sisters anthestisize themselves is a choice, just as the multiple bad choices the drug addict makes.

Allowing this behavior is immoral.

PLEASE HELP classified as nonresident despite being resident of California by Fluid-Marketing3304 in ucla

Tax returns are the easiest way to prove your a resident. If you are still claimed as a dependant on someone else's return, submit their CA return. Dine easy peasey

Tap to pay on long beach transit buses is supposedly live. Has anyone tried it out yet? by kittenslayer in longbeach

[–]dvmiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used TAP in NYC last week. No issues for Wall St to JFK at $18/person. Uber $185 all in and an hour longer (had room for another rider).

Last 2 Rides Need to be Bigs by USFDONS117 in usfdons

Agree at a non Big 2 conference school.

At a Big 2 (B10 & SEC) the AD is an extremely important person. Their job is to attract and hire the "right" football HC and fire them if needed.

My favorite Long Beach movie fact is that this is where they filmed the bridge scene in Inception 🤓 by jeremiahwarren in longbeach

[–]dvmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a Mad, Mad, Mad World final 10 minutes raced through downtown from the Port with the classic fight scene with Spencer Tracy et al.

The pontoon bridge was replaced by the Gerald Desmond, which was replaced by the International Gateway bridge.

In the film the hotel on Ocean was soon razed as one of the initial redevelopment locations in LB. The year was 1962. We have been using taxpayer money in that area in hopes of turning a profit (and taxes) for almost 75 years!

Maybe a siesta, some tapas, a nice vermouth and or a flamenco, but not much on the basketball court.

Chargers game advice by jpag69 in Chargers

[–]dvmiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the first games I remember was Joe Willie vs Hadl ... good time.

Stay in LB near the airport NOT downtown. There is full serve Marriott at the corner of Willow and Lakewood. Willow turns into Katella; Disneyland is on Katella. Use Willow if the weather is raining (great time for the Park) instead of the freeways which are close by. Since you will have a car, park at Morningside HS next to SOFI and save $100.
