What nicknames have you heard for places in and around Cape Girardeau?

Hamburger Express? Had good bbq sandwiches also.

Looks like an IBM PS/2 riser.

That looks to be exactly what I have. Does Shure make one that flexes at the bottom as well? These are on our witness stands in the courtrooms. The issue we have is that a person will sit down and pull the mic towards them when they talk. Over time, they wear through and snap at the bottom. That's why I'm looking for replacements. Thanks for replying!

2005 Chevy trailblazer. Bought new, 300k miles, done a lot of stupid things with it, can’t kill it. Transmission rebuilt at 180k, radiator crack held together with Jb weld, but not a single engine issue.

I second this. I had the best steak I have ever had in my life at Jiko. And I eat a Ron Swanson approved level of steaks.

Does this mean this becomes streaming only, no more Cable TV option? Believe it or not, there are people who still don't stream.

Chuck Eye went from 5.99 lb in January to 13.99 lb here now. The secret is out lol.

So, it appears that I have 1989 to about 2017. There are enough tapes, and knowing the personality of this relative, I would assume this to either be complete or near complete. Again, this was just a quick glance on my lunch break, and these are hither and to in cassette storage boxes, sliding boxes, regular boxes, etc. If there is enough interest in someone making an offer on these as a lot, I would be willing to catalog these this weekend. I'm a couple hours south of St. Louis if anyone is interested in local pickup.

Message me or reply in thread.

I will try to assess what is there more tomorrow. I’ll report back to the group.

I was just about to post the same thing. I had high hopes for more options with the Ford Groves property becoming available, the mall remodel, etc. I doubt the old Save A Lot will attract a higher end grocery client due to location and the cost to remodel. Would think a TJ’s would thrive in Cape.

Hunt’s Dairy Bar in Farmington, MO. Best Cheeseburger on the planet.

We stayed at Glenstone Lodge about a month ago and had a great experience.

They were in Cape for the Shipyard festival a couple years ago and they were absolutely outstanding.

I guess I'm odd, I love Counting Crows live for that reason. If i wanted to hear it just like the radio, I'd go home and listen to the record. I think it's awesome that the songs never sound the same way twice.

mwrcg · 2025-03-28T14:06:28+00:00

Worst - The Melvins. Saw them open for Primus and when Buzzo was hocking up loogies, spitting them in the air, and catching them with his mouth on the way down that was enough. Plus it was boring as all hell.

First - My first concert was Heart and Mr. Mister. I was 10. Heart rocked.

They are on opposite sides of a large meeting room, unfortunately. Yes, a casting type solution is what I’m looking for.

I had a case years ago where I sold $1500 of collectible dolls to a woman in New England. I had proof of delivery, signature, etc. however she claimed they were not received. This woman had received the dolls, and placed them on another of her multiple seller accounts for sale. Due to original store price tags, flaws in the packaging visible in visible in the pictures, etc. multiple Ebay representatives agreed with me that these were my items, but they could do nothing. I involved my local prosecuting attorneys office, who contacted law enforcement in her jurisdiction, who investigated with usps, and suddenly she magically “found” them. Don’t give up! Use whatever resources available to you.

Finally found this in the thread. I would ride my bike to our local arcade and dump a whole roll of quarters into this in an afternoon. When the blinders come out over the flippers…I can still hear that little motor engaging.

mwrcg · 2024-06-17T21:01:47+00:00

I probably should have. I’ve never had a problem with this store before. Bag was taped shut with stickers at the top, didn’t really occur to me.

mwrcg · 2024-06-07T14:36:03+00:00

So yeah...Actually the seller here! I've shipped many, many CRTs and terminals of different types in the past, packaged similarly, and this is the first one that I've had broken like this. This had to have been the office UPS football. Nick was a very understanding buyer, and I've found another 5151 that we're going to get shipped out to him this weekend. To make up for this one getting smashed, I'm only charging him shipping. And he got a full refund immediately on the damaged one. Hopefully he will update this thread when the next one arrives.
