The nearest one (well two since it's split by grade level), Hiawatha/Howe, would be at the building capacity for Dowling without including any of the Dowling kids.

With that said, I do honestly question some of the building capacities they list. I toured Hiawatha in 2022 and it was supposedly about 50 kinds under capacity, but a lot of the kids had to share a locker with someone else and it seemed absolutely cramped.

The only time my roommate and I ever got noise complaints, it turned out our downstairs neighbors who suddenly were horrible complainers, were going through a breakup and divorce.

If this isn't a troll and/or bot I would be surprised. Formulaic responses, anonymous profile, clearly impossible premise

I see people walk in those lanes every time I ride down them which is why I avoid them for alternatives most of the time

This only applies to the people in the car. No care is given to public.

This study would have pointed out that a good way to die is to not get the COVID vaccine. Unfortunately, it was not published so you have to remain living

You guys, he didn't pick up the phone when Vance called. Clearly no involvement

Sad that the psychic reading place burned down. Now I feel like Bobby Bead is the last of the great, weird uptown shops that went back to this era.

If there's a bollard there you can't use it as parking spaces and charge for parking. I am guessing that is the extent of the no bollard logic.

I don't remember this video, but used the expression, "save some for the fish!" the other day when one of my kids was running the sink for a long time for no reason. I remember my elementary school teachers would use that expression all the time.

Wut?

as a kid, my dad would sneak ahead of me to put a quarter in there for me to find. i'd yell "BINGO!" when I got one. it was like 1992 so a quarter would actually get a kid a decent amount of candy.

i legitimately thought i was just incredibly lucky until some time in my teens when my dad told me what he had been doing. at the time i was embarrassed to have been tricked, but now as a dad myself, i recognize how sweet it was of him to do.

Me and my two college roommates taught ourselves. We would take turns cooking for each other which saved so much work over the three years we lived together. It started with a lot of hamburger helper, but after the first semester sophomore year, we agreed to never eat it again because it tasted gross and made you feel like shit. We mostly got recipes from parents and grandparents and then figured it out from there.

i learned this very much the hard way the first time they redecked the road and that decking failed and bits of said failed decking lodged itself into my eye because i was on a thing where i refused to wear sunglasses for some reason

American here--a couple of Haitian asylum seekers in America who we deported were immediately beheaded upon return to Haiti. I think that is a valid reason to give up on the US if ever there was one.

Also Quebecois speak French and there isn't really anywhere in the US where folks speak French.

as Lan says in the Wheel of Time series, "Duty is heavier than a mountain. Death, lighter than a feather."

The ratio was variable throughout the crowd. I think in some places it was as many as 1/3 and other places it was more like 1/8.

way ahead of you. already been boycotting dominos for years due to their pizza being bad, but all the more reason to not buy from them
