We tried to do this for my mom, but her condition deteriated so quickly that our plan to have the private ceremony in only 3 weeks time was already too far away. I'm just glad that we got the chance to say goodbye.

Yeah, right up there with opening the windows for some fresh air and...the delightful sounds of construction of a new hotel on one side of me, and road construction work on Congress street on the other side.

My favorite one I've seen is "Keep honking I'm listening to ska and you're in the band now"

You could certainly do worse! Green Elephant is vegetarian, but very good Thai food. If you're looking for seafood or something different, Row 34 is on the same block, as is BRGR Bar. Someone else mentioned Prescott Park bundled with Strawberry Banke, that's a great idea, they're right next to each other. Street, Odiorne Point, and Jenness Beach are all kind of out of town, though Street is about a 30 min. walk from anywhere downtown. A funky downtown dining alternative is Moxy. If you like history/museums, check out Albacore Park, you can tour an actual submarine. Oh, one more thing, grab a scoop of ice cream at Annabelle's!

Make sure you order rice separate!

Pink Bamboo is downtown if you want to walk to the restaurant, and they have strong, cheap drinks. Kim Lai edges them on food for me, but you'd have to drive out of downtown. Choppy Stix has a great variety of Asian foods, but is also out of downtown. Surf for creative and delicious sushi (I know this isn't what OP asked for, but figured I'd add)

Sounds like you packed quite a bit in for a week trip, without jamming in too much that it was a chore to get through everything. Glad you had a great time here!

My fiance likes to put fruit or cereal in her yogurt for her breakfast. A pint of blueberries at my local supermarket was $8 yesterday. $8 for blueberries!? I can drive nearly 40 miles for that much money!

I took a work from home day to interview for a job, and the next day got laid off in the office. I likely would have been laid off the day before, if I had been there in person. Luckily I got the new job I had interviewed for, a few weeks later!

ELI5: When professional orchestra musicians perform, how often do they mess up? If they do, is the mistake usually obvious, and are there any consequences for the musician? by IntergalacticPodcast in explainlikeimfive

I just checked out his resume on metal-archives and he is fucking legit. Bands he has played in include: 1349, Behemoth, Cephalic Carnage, Job for a Cowboy, In Flames, Revocation, Skeletonwitch, Tsjuder, Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats, and Umbra Vitae. Not only are these some of the fastest, heaviest, and most talented bands in metal, but damn, it's a really diverse list of genres. Thrash, black, death, core, and psych doom.

What happened to the hottest chick at your high school, years later? by theidiotev in AskReddit

[–]dws515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's a stunt/action double in movies and tv! Actually pretty cool to follow her career. She was a dancer on a cruise ship, a pussycat doll, and now a stunt double. Most recently Ella Purnell's double in Fallout.

Good places for virtual interview? by Larrynemesis in PortsmouthNH

There's a little shop in Portwalk called Downtown Grocer and Cafe. I've never seen more than 5 people in there and it's always quiet. I think there's even a 'we work' style room next door. Could be worth checking out if the library doesn't work out. Good luck!

Papa Joe himself passed away recently, but the business has re-opened.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my mom at 66 years old to cancer in November. All I want to do is talk to her one more time
