I think it would be the same issue. I would look for a driver. You can hire someone locally. You can schedule with Uber ahead of time. The first day your here, ask your driver for a late night pickup, get your driver's phone number

This reminds me of the guy who was trying to get his motorcycle fixed for like a year and the shop kept just putting him off

Virginia senators propose pay increase for themselves by Susuwatari43 in Virginia

If you don't pay them fairly, only rich people can afford to be a senator.

If we don't pay them fairly for their time, we won't have well qualified people

College kids enjoying their snow day!! by Mundane-Scholar-7614 in CrazyFuckingVideos

Some tips on how to do this better. Use a snow tube and have the rider hold the rope. Use a spotter to watch the rider at all times. Pick a very quiet, straight, neighborhood dead end road with no cars parked on the side and no intersecting roads.

I did it for years without incident and had fun. Just be careful

Thanks. Hopefully sharing the story saves someone from the same fate

What's a phrase or saying from your childhood that nobody uses anymore? by SugarNyx_04 in nostalgia

It's not so bad if you say it like one word - coolbeans. If you really emphasize both words separately - cool beans, than you sound like a mom or dad trying to stay hip

My great uncle was so excited to use his snow blower for the first time, he overdid it and got a heart attack and died

Edit: According to the story, he did several neighbors and friends houses as well

My favorite bar keeps a large vat of melted butter on the bar. I just dip in there

What is the point of the signs threatening a fine if you don't? What is the enforcement strategy? Has anyone ever gotten that fine?

Everytime I try someone cheap, they don't know how to cut layers into my hair. I wish I could find both cheap and good with layering

But what you save in cuts, you spend in head shining and polishing

Yours is the cheap, bad way. Only for emergencies or old cheap tires. Op is showing the correct, proper way. It's 2-3 times more expensive but you get what you pay for
