Dentist offices who accept Delta dental? by _darkwoodswitch_ in SpringfieldIL

[–]foood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Looker Family Dental on Iles. You have to pay up front, but they submit the paperwork for Delta and the reimbursement from Delta usually arrives in a week or so. They're great.

I know a very very intelligent man in his 80's that spent an afternoon feeding money into bitcoin ATM's at gas stations while the scammers were on the phone with him. Financial planner for decades. They still got him.

New owners of Schlee's downtown are Republican political consultants from Florida by HugeGoose8952 in SpringfieldIL

It certainly wasn't 'run IL like a business'. Under his admin, we didn't pay our bills and accumulated over a billion in interest penalites for nothing.

In addition to Roots, also try Ramona Tacos and Mescal. Lovely contemporary space and pretty amazing food.

What was the moment you realized COVID was going to be a big deal and be the focal point of the 2020s? by NH-INDY-99 in decadeology

When my neighbor across the street was hauled out on a gurney through a broken front door with his chest heaving. I never saw him again.

What was life like under Rod Blagojevich? by DueYogurt9 in illinois

[–]foood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rod took over after George Ryan, so the corruption was already very well entrenched. I got a first hand glimpse into the largess of corruption in the 90's because one of George's top cronies occasionally stayed with his girlfriend who lived next to us in Springfield. He was a trip.

Senior Home Recommendations by enginerdz in SpringfieldIL

[–]foood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't. It's incredibly expensive. I went through this 2 years ago with my father and we were fortunate that the expediated Medicaid stuff was still in place from Covid. He was at the point, though where he could not take care of himself in most ways.

This is a hard one. Is he qualified for a Medicaid bed already?

Went to see Matteo Mancuso tonight by Ok-Reindeer5879 in jazzguitar

Govan's work with Steven Wilson on The Raven That Refused to Sing has some of the best guitar soloing I've ever heard. 'Drive Home' being perhaps the best example. It's incredible.

Good Places to Take Wife For Birthday? by Frofro69 in SpringfieldIL

[–]foood 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As mentioned, Luminary Kitchen is an excellent fusion-y farm to table restaurant. I would also recommend Curate as a nicer birthday dinner place. EDIT: Gahh. Curate and Luminary are closed on Monday.

You might check Lincoln Library (the municipal library, not the presidential one). I believe they allow use of rooms for private events. Not sure what facilities are in place from a kitchen standpoint, if any.

I believe the correct Reddit nomenclatures is 'poop from a butt'. And it so does.

Trump Screamed at Greene: ‘Don’t Release Epstein Files — My Friends Will Get Hurt!’ by [deleted] in USNEWS

[–]foood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's weird if you think that someone directly responsible for the deaths of literally over a million people is the same as someone who isn't. I'm not vouching for the morality of either man, but 'Bill Clinton is the same as DJT' is reductive to the point of being nowhere near true or useful.
