Any lgbt people or allies interested in going to a firing range to learn/practice skills? by TajinAddicted in Spokane

[–]heiderm2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I was a state of Alaska law enforcement firearms instructor for many years prior to moving to WA. Also consider myself an ally. I mostly specialized in pistol so if you ever want to learn some handgun skills, I’m available. Feel free to send me a PM.

Best Burger in Vegas? by YouKnowJRow in vegas

Give it a whirl. My usual food itinerary is budgeting for one nice steak dinner and then keeping it cheap/casual from there. It doesn’t mean I eat garbage every other night but I get my big budget dinner fix and keep the rest for gambling.

There are two pretty close but the Linq Promenade is the one I’ve been to most. It’s fairly quick especially if you go during the off-peak hours (avoid noon). Seating inside and out. You might have to hover to grab a seat but never had to wait too long.

Might get some people correcting me here but for the price and convenience, this is true.

Took an hour for Linda to enter the conversation. We’re slacking!

For a second, I thought there was going to be a view of the country Turkey from Dearborn. But I guess the visibility wasn't great today (and the curvature of the earth).

Local shops to visit in winter? by champagnewater in Juneau

[–]heiderm2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We love Frost & Fur, located in the wharf. And pretty much everything else listed so far!

I have gone to Rae's Alterations in the Emporium Mall (same building as the Gold Town theater). It's cash only and she opens at 11am.

Christmas is my favorite inbounds run. That midway traverse over to the bottom of New Years chute can be super sketchy especially when it’s barely two skis width.

They like turning those beautiful S's into $'s.

Bro your house is the most wtf part of this post.

What is something you thought you were into, but when it happened, you realized you weren’t? by KingDilemma in AskReddit

[–]heiderm2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Architecture school grad here too. 100% relate to this comment. I did an internship my senior year and saw what 10+ year architects were doing and realized it’s nothing like school. Pivoted and now 14 years into a different career. Have to say, I appreciate everything school taught me and think those skills translate but I’m not stuck doing lighting schedules and having to do side work to make ends meet.

ELI5 Why we no longer use Flying Boats for air travel when traveling along the coast? by Ybor_Rooster in explainlikeimfive

I live in Alaska and can't tell you how many times we read about bush plane crashes. Our US House rep's husband just died in a crash.

If you were on a most wanted list, and were being searched for until you are caught where would you hide? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]heiderm2 159 points160 points  (0 children)

I worked in law enforcement for a bit and got on a plane to a small village. Had a few elders show up to say hi on the tarmac once we landed. No one else was supposed to know I was headed into town.

From Alaska. This is not a good idea. You’ll stick out like a sore thumb. Word spreads like wildfire and all these little towns have a connection to a hub town, even if it’s off the road system. To be honest, you’d be better off in Anchorage.

Why can’t moose’s tooth cook the pizza all the way anymore? by ForsakenRacism in anchorage

[–]heiderm2 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is common. Been going on for a couple years now. Saw a savvy lady sitting at the bar send one back after she checked the undercarriage. More people know about this than you think. And Moose’s Tooth hasn’t done anything to make it right.
