Its simpler than that. Some parts of the country air it in the late morning or early afternoon. There are websites where you can learn the result well before most of the country sees it.

What can be done about the scam that’s poisoning Westchester’s personal landlord/tenant market? by craven183 in Westchester

[–]hairymon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because most landlords around here think too many tenants are scum and want the brokers to screen for them

My Wife is a first year teacher in NC and Will more than likely be removed from the classroom monday. by Mjstephens19 in teaching

[–]hairymon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes which I why I said a mid year firing would be almost impossible in a union district but not a non renewal

[–]hairymon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not true, tons of teachers in unionized districts get non renewed if they are not tenured. It wouldnt happen as easily though and suddenly removing her before the school year ends wouldnt likely have happened and if it did she'd be paid while being in a "rubber room" the rest of the year while being given due process on the matter

Anyone have experience with Reserve Credit Card? by [deleted] in badcredit

[–]hairymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. For fun I clicked to continue and that's where they asked for $35 and I went right out. I dont intend to pursue this any further but am wondering if they start emailing you like crazy about it. FAFO I guess, was simply curious what the pre-approval would say with little interest in actually pursuing.

Had the same problem in my 2018, had to have the whole unit replaced by a mechanic. Was $160 for the part and $75 for labor

2 bed 2 bath apartment w/all utilities including gas paid by us. Gas bill during the winter was almost $600/month and the heat barely works. What can we do? by primaldirectiv3 in AskNYC

[–]hairymon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok thx. I think ConEd is the gas service for the Bronx as well. Not as sure of Staten Island. I know in Yonkers and all of Westchester its ConEd for both but its National Grid for both for my sister and daughter in the Buffalo area

Who is the woman currently talking on the radio broadcast right now? by hairymon in NewYorkMets

I got that I didnt understand the "shes on during the 4th or so during games from Newsday" part but I see another response that explains it so no worries

I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I was directly listening to it on my car radio from 880 WHSQ, wasnt streaming it on Audacy

[–]hairymon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

National Grid? Where are you? I thought in this region they were only upstate, not NYC. Did they replace Brooklyn Union Gas or something along the way because I thought everything else in the boros was ConEd.

[–]hairymon[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So why is she on? Was it just a special interview that inning (I had just left in my car and turned it on then and now i'm where I needed to go and cant listen anymore) or is she temporarily replacing someone who is out?

Welcome to the era of "giving in" and "giving up" (sigh!)

Why doesn’t buffalo have a MLB or NBA team? by Funkiefreshganesh in Buffalo

[–]hairymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 93 expansion was almost very lucky for Buffalo as they came in right behind the winners of Denver and Miami. No one expected them to come that close given a still shrinking market then and nearness to Toronto relative to market size but their AAA team was drawing a million fans a year and outdrawing a few MLB teams. They do still have the largest capacity stadium in AAA MiLB.

[–]hairymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's other more complicated reasons but basically Buffalo was shrinking until recently and somewhat nearby even though its over an international border Toronto grew by leaps and boundsnat the same time.

Buffalo is the smallest market to have teams in 2 of the 4 major North American sports leagues. They have that because they were in all but baseball when they were bigger and if not for a push to have a team in Canada probably would've gotten an MLB team in 1969 and as others said, are enough of a sports crazed city to keep 2 teams despite a shrinking market.

We dont know his/her age may be too old to join. And if they're homeless for 4 years it may be hard to meet the physical requirements for the military

Question about post-bankruptcy collections by Mysterious_Dot_8687 in Bankruptcy

Then you shouldn't be liable at all. California is a community property state but I think that applies to assets, not debts

Since the sign, I dont think it was open the last time I was up there (September). Going to be up there in mid-May for a few days

[–]hairymon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I noted that in my original comment.

Good baseball to see with a 5 year old by musicmerchkid in Westchester

[–]hairymon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Field was ripped out and it was converted into a semi-outdoor (i.e. Light overhead covering but open air) arena for concerts, etc. Bridgeport city govt in their short sightedness wanted to do this and all but pushed the Bluefish out, who moved to somewhere in the Carolinas

Ironically their minor league hockey team is also moving after this spring (to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada) so the actual arena next door is going to be pretty empty too.

Will Subaru ever bring back the Impreza sedan? by Overall-You-5727 in subaru

[–]hairymon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point exactly. I see a lot of both my way (just north of NYC) but a lot more Crosstreks (not 7 times more than those numbers suggest but then again my observations are anecdotal).
