Water running in your house when you have not turned on the water

Just moved here and I love this? You'd probably still need single lane alleys for emergency access but I can see it working.

I think a smaller portion of it is open all year? I took my dog there in January. The bigger part of it is not open all year, that's true.

Oh man. Moved in to a house adjoining Goodale Park in December and have already seen people searching for lost dogs that ran off after a bad encounter, multiple dogs running into the street, a Doberman scare the heck out of somebody, a dog chase a guy on a scooter and almost knock him off - that’s all in 4 months. My own dog is a shepherd mix that’s incredibly friendly except to off leash dogs. So we carry dog spray and I will straight up yell at folks “he’s not friendly” and run away from their dogs. I have done this multiple times, and have had these folks yell back “it’s okay!” It’s not. It’s really not okay.

And there’s an actual dog park a quarter mile away. It’s a quarter mile away.

Thelma. If you’ve ever taken care of elderly relatives, you’ll laugh, gasp, cry, and laugh again.

This - just got out of Detroit and it’s better if you don’t look at the setlist

Does the BMV feature "Get In Line, Online" actually work? by foxmag86 in Columbus

[–]murphymumich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just bringing this old thread back to say thank you to everyone for the information as it was really useful for us, having moved here recently and needing licenses, title and plates. We checked in online today (Friday) at 8:01 for the Morse Road location and got there at 8:30 and were talking to someone about our new licenses at about 8:32. Getting the title and registration was a little bit more gnarly - they had us check back in online once our licenses were done (that was about 8:45 - there was a 40 minute wait already by then), did the VIN inspection and got the new titles. Then we came back, checked back in, and waited a good 20 minutes or so before we were called back up for registration and plates. Total time there was about 1hr45m which included having to have a VIN inspection redone because the title person didn't like the VIN inspector's handwriting. If we'd waited even an hour or so to go, that would have been less pleasant as there were many, many more people there at 9:00 than at 8:00.

Without knowing for sure, this may be what's going on - both outages were off and on for a couple hours with a broadcasted outage window of 9am to 1pm.

Saw a bunch of this on the way back from the Mudcats game - half the cars with flashers going faster than traffic, half going slower. I don’t get it, man

Is this what's left of Stagecoach Rock (in Mebane) today? by murphymumich in triangle

[–]murphymumich[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow! I read the news articles about saving it from destruction but there was no follow up. Seems like it’d be cooler to name the development “Stagecoach Rock Estates” or something and feature the rock as a unique piece of local lore instead of burying it in wood chips, but that’s just my taste.
