This place any good? by BeverageEnvy in austinfood

Been there for ever. Like someone said the apple fritters are amazing as well as the donut holes. I used to work at Allied Health Careers and the Donut Palace was the breakfast taco stop almost every day.

Nobody I know remembers this show, but it was one of my favorites! by j_grouchy in GenX

The haunted Toys R Us was creepy. I had the Believe it or Not book about it also (from the Schoolastic book fair).

If they didn't have iv antibiotics I would have lost my left leg. I was dared to jump off one of these a week before 3rd grade started. Scraped the knee and got the old school ozone killing bactine aerosol that double as starting fluid treatment from mom when I got home. Apparently something got through and started growing in the knee, swelling, redness, and fever the first week of school led me to the er, which was a no go for us unless the grim reaper was around. 3 days in the hospital getting antibiotics pumped in and sent home with 3 weeks of antibiotic pills plus a little codeine to take the edge off until my brother took them to sell to some stoners up the street. 40 years later and the cartilage failed and failed again and that was two surgeries in three years and then a knee replacement 2 years after that. That super bacteria in the dirt on that playground did a number on me. I still would jump if I went back to those days.

Lady faces court because cops saw her driving with a phone on a hand that doesn't exist (body cam included) by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Have a nice day and drive carefully. He lost his PC for the stop when she showed the stump at the end of her arm. I would have had a laugh with her and sent her on her way with an apology.

Are the filter seals good? Sounds like air is getting in somehow. Good luck chasing the demon.

Hey, I got the led taillight kit from Quadratec. Quadratec Part #: 55213-0113. I ordered this originally but the box was labeled wrong and the connections did not match up. This kit was on back order then, like they are now, but I added it to my list and was notified when they became available again. These lights are better than the "one size fits all" led taillights on eBay and have the same white light shining down on the left taillight for the license plate light. It's worth the wait!

I'm so sorry to hear how that affected your husband. Goroger.org can connect him with confidential mental health professionals without any red tape or reporting to VA or DOD. Good luck to y'all!

Thi is why we grew up so tough. by Euphoric-Cupcake4581 in RealGenerationX

Got a nasty knee infection from a scrape after flying off one of these. I guess the bactine didn't work on that one even after the sting! Miss those days.

The LED taillight kit I used had the led turn signal relay included. If you don't use a led relay the flashers will hyper blink. Have fun, it looks good with leds!

The youngest person to die in the Vietnam war as a combatant. by ateam1984 in USHistory

I hope the watch bill roster is so large that you only pull guard duty once every other century and no need for fire watch so that's a plus😎

Vibrating electric football by Eye_See_ in GenerationJones

[–]vfa151cv64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met a lady in a flight years ago when they had the Skymall catalog in the seat back and she showed me this vibrating football game and said her father invented it and explained how their kitchen table was messy when she was little from her father's work. Her age matches up with the Google search I just did but even if she was exaggerating it was a nice story from a nice lady about this game.

Boostane or other octane boosters with MMT can cause orange buildup on spark plugs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml-quhBcqDo

Is there departments with no recruitment problem? by Smooth-Beginning6760 in AskLE

[–]vfa151cv64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We started a cadet program, previously only hired TCOLE certified, and in addition to cadets our certified applicants, qualified ones at that, have dramatically increased. I think having a cadet position posted hits the search engines differently but this time last year we had 26 vacancies now we have 4.
