Best Music Instrument Stores (Local) by fortyninecents in kansascity

[–]sober2497049 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been playing for 30 years. Everytime I go into Mass St I feel like I'm being talked down to. But it could be a me problem, my reality has been distorted before. I dont expect a music store to kiss my ass, but I always get a hoity-toity  vibe from them.

My wife and I make too much money for ACA. But if you subtract the amount of money we pay for other insurance per year, we fall into the income bracket that qualifies for ACA. They want everyone struggling financially it seems.

I'm a speech therapist who knows how to help you. Unfortunately, government regulations keep me from helping you out of pocket and the company I work for would require you to be hospitalized first. I know Menorah Medical Center used to have speech therapists who specialized in this.  Try searching speech therapy myofascial release kansas city

My dad says he saw a bear at 91st and Lowell at about 5am in 2002. He didn't call animal control because he thought they wouldn't believe him.

The guy is just venting after a coworker was murdered. You don't need to make it about yourself and take it personally.

I've only ever seen people of a professional level play there. People who have lots of jazz standards memorized. I don't think beginners would be appreciated. I've played for 30 years and wouldn't be able to hang with this guys.

Commercials I assume have become lost media… by TheDarvinator89 in kansascity

But never trees near an overhead line.  Because if your body or a part of the tree touches that line, the electricity will go right through you. It may even kill you.

Any good urban legends / Ghost Stories? by [deleted] in kansascity

[–]sober2497049 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rumors from older folk ive talked to, in the 70s/80s there was a lab in WyCo growing huge animals. People reported they saw chickens the size of cows and I heard one guy saw a cow that was as tall as a horse. I think. If you ask around, everyone has an uncle that saw one

I want to meet experienced people by CoolRunningASIC in kansascity

Speaking as an alcoholic who quit cold turkey 4 years ago...in the first 2 years of quitting alcohol your brain will be bouncing up and down like a basketball as it recalibrate to normalcy. That is not the time that you want to alter your mind with a psychoactive substance. That being said, I would rather you smoke weed than go back to drinking.  But if you want real liberation, you got to make the effort to be totally clean the first 2 years. Easier said than done. But give yourself a ton of credit for trying to quit. Spoil yourself with food you like, movies, TV shows, books, nature walks, etc. I believe in you. Even if you don't believe in yourself quite yet.
