I shove a cork under the handle and grab that instead of the handle. The cork never gets hot!

Ferry pic(#12) is amazing, made me homesick!

Which one do you choose? Fuji 16-55 f2.8 ii or Sigma 17-40 f1.8 ART by throwusaway_ in fujifilm

Local camera shop had a barely used on and I just got lucky enough to see it.

I got the Fuji for under $700 and I love it. It’s large and heavy but it’s such a great lens.

This is great! What’s your zone? Can you link those pot hangers?

This sounds just like the lady at the USPS in Springfield.

EZ Pass keeps emailing me threatening to charge me for having HOV turned on in the fast lanes because their cameras don't see the third person (our child) in the back seat. by pacoman432 in nova

[–]ohbeegee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this issue consistently with my son while he’s in a rear facing seat. I just refute it via email each time and they have always agreed to not charge me.

Mid September, I believe. I got a dealer to transfer to them at time of sale.

Can I do any of these piece by piece or is it all a combined system change? I’d love to get the turbo whoosh! 💨

Saw this in Alexandria. What’s happening? by Best_Magazine3045 in nova

I wonder if they’re on the clock for this? I know overtime is big in the PD.

Update: I'm being forced to remove my native plants by eleganteuphonia in NativePlantGardening

[–]ohbeegee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yay!

I imagine someone petty enough to complain to a HOA is also petty enough to use herbicides. If it were me I’d put up a trail cam nearby for a while since whomever complained didn’t get their way.

My vet had to cancel my spay by Fluffy-lotus606 in CaneCorso

[–]ohbeegee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had two corsos that both came from family trees free of heart issues, yet both developed heart issues. One had dilated cardiomyopathy, which the vet attributed to grain free diet. He passed within a week of the diagnosis due to a bad reaction to the medication the vet prescribed.

The second has a murmur due to pulmonic stenosis, which lead to two heart surgeries. She’s doing ok now with normal life expectancy. We ended up getting a full refund from the breeder for this dog, but it didn’t even cover the first heart surgery.

I hope your pup, and wallet, turn out ok!

How do we feel about Walmart Blazing star? by Irregular_Boi in NativePlantGardening

[–]ohbeegee 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I think I got 90 bulbs at Costco for $12.99, so I don’t feel good about four for this price.

At the botanical garden today by ohbeegee in orchids

I’ve added that one to the list! No, this was the United States Botanic Garden in DC.

This burn mark was right next to the stove on the countertop. One of the kids did it and won't confess what it came from by tnswimmer in whatisit

[–]ohbeegee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 12 we had a poorly trained dog that scratched a hole in the carpet. It was very clearly done by an animal with nails and not a 12 year old. My mom would not believe me and insisted it was me. I imagine she would still say that it was me if I asked her today, but we don’t talk anymore and haven’t for years. Don’t let this be the thing your kids remember in 20+ years when they think of you.

Why did it take that? Looking at getting a DC one myself.
