- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?by Travis Morgan in Town Talk ·
I started this to learn something and it turned into everybody's report card. Appreciate the numbers. I'll pull the certified counts after the 13th. "Run for something small" is the only advice in here that actually…
- Re: Free bike helmets Saturday on the Greenwayby Jennifer B. in Events ·
ANOTHER DEER HUNTER ON HERE, LOVE IT. THE BLAZE ORANGE TRICK IS LEGIT, I WEAR MINE WALKING THE GREENWAY AFTER WORK AND NOBODY HAS CLIPPED ME YET. GOT MY LAST VEST AT A YARD SALE FOR TWO BUCKS, STILL BRIGHT AS EVER. A…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?by Jennifer B. in Town Talk ·
I VOTED. EARLY. I'M NOT TAKING A LECTURE ON TURNOUT FROM ANYBODY WHO STAYED HOME AND THEN CAME HERE TO BE MAD ABOUT IT.
- Re: AT&T internet down in Washington-Willow? Who else is out?
Ours here in Happy Hollow is out too, so that's Johnson, Washington-Willow and us at least. I was up early and the router's still blinking red. Ethan, Arsaga's is a good plan. Get there before the morning rush if you…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?
I know who my state rep is, Denise, I emailed them twice about a school thing. And the real answer is "nobody on the ballot." Half those races were over at the filing deadline. The loudest people in threads like this…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?
Chose them who, Natalie? Every state redraws and whoever's in charge draws for themselves, both parties, wherever they can. If you want to be mad at lines be mad at all of them. And be honest, do you know who your…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?by Natalie B. in Town Talk ·
"our blue doesn't add up" is kind of a lazy answer though. Brenda's math is right, but those lines didn't draw themselves, somebody chose them. Both things are true.
- Re: Veterans Day parade downtown this year?
we're over by gulley park so we drive in and park a few blocks off the square too. the spring street deck has worked for us when the street spots are gone, but i'd double check that's open before counting on it. i…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?
Blue wave. Hm. I talked to about forty people in Farmington this week and not one of them saw a wave. National news says wave, I say go ask your neighbors.
- Re: AT&T internet down in Washington-Willow? Who else is out?
Thanks Alyssa! 🙌 Johnson too means it's definitely bigger than just our few blocks, kinda comforting in a misery-loves-company way 😅 The metered connection tip is a good one, I didn't even think about OneDrive…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?
yeah the no-challenger thing bugs me too. in a lot of those races the filing deadline passes and that's basically the election. midterm turnout around the Hill also drops compared to a presidential year, so even our…
- Re: Which hospital for delivering a baby? Washington Regional vs Mercy vs Freemanby Kyle H. in Recommendations ·
Thanks Stephanie. We delivered last fall, so about a year ago. Staffing could be different now, though I'd guess the nurses are mostly the same crew. We did the L&D tour a couple months out and I'd say do it. Seeing…
- Re: Veterans Day parade downtown this year?
Thanks Jordan, mid morning is about what I remembered too, which is probably why we were late. Living off Dickson is the move, I'm jealous. We'll probably park a few blocks out and walk in instead of fighting for a…
- Re: Tiny Tim's is staying on the Square 🍕by Timothy D. in Local News ·
Extra crispy supreme from a guy who smokes brisket every weekend... I'll allow it, but only because you admitted the standards are low-key. Fully agree on eating down there though. Everybody gets misty about the Square…
- Hill Place apartments and the bus, does it actually work?
My niece is transferring to UofA in January and she's looking at Hill Place for a spring lease. The leasing office says the bus to campus is "super convenient" which, ok, they would say that lol. So for anybody who…
- Re: AT&T internet down in Washington-Willow? Who else is out?
ours in johnson went out around the same time, 7ish, same red blinky light. so it's not just your few blocks. i'd guess it's something bigger than washington-willow. for the hotspot, if you're on a laptop set the wifi…
- AT&T internet down in Washington-Willow? Who else is out?
Ok so our AT&T went dead around 7 tonight 😩 router lights are doing the red blinky thing and nothing I do fixes it. Unplugged it, counted to 30, plugged it back in, the whole routine 🙃 Tried the support line and…
- Re: Which hospital for delivering a baby? Washington Regional vs Mercy vs Freemanby Stephanie W. in Recommendations ·
Thank you, Kyle, this is the kind of detail Carlos was hoping for. The point about calling insurance ahead is a good one. It's also worth asking the hospital's billing or financial counseling office for an estimate…
- Re: Veterans Day parade downtown this year?
not sure on the time, i think it was mid morning last yr but dont quote me. city page should have it. we live off dickson so we just walk up, parking by the square fills up fast tho. get ther early if you want the front
- Anyone have a cleaning lady for Thanksgiving week?by Brenda in Recommendations ·
My daughter's husband's parents are driving in from Tulsa the Saturday before Thanksgiving and staying through the weekend. House needs more than my knees will let me do. Baseboards, the bathrooms, the oven, all of it…
- Re: For The Love NWA free meals, anyone volunteered?
Agree with Alyssa, message them first. Coffee and cocoa are a good idea, but they'll know what's already covered that night. Rachel, the first time is always the hardest part, and after that it's easy. People are just…
- Re: how is Arkansas still red in a blue wave?by Travis Morgan in Town Talk ·
Okay, the Benton County part is what I was missing. I always think of us as the big one up here. I'll check the county numbers once they certify. Still bugs me how many races have nobody even running.
- Re: For The Love NWA free meals, anyone volunteered?
i'd say message them first, even if it's just a quick note on their page. most groups like this have a rough headcount in mind and they can tell you what they actually need that night instead of everybody guessing. hot…
- Re: who do you use for gutter cleaning?by Alyssa S. in Recommendations ·
this is really helpful, thank you both. i hadn't thought about the second visit at all, but you're right, the oaks next door are still holding most of their leaves. sounds like i should book one now for the sweetgum…
- For The Love NWA free meals, anyone volunteered?
Saw the November Mobile Pantry schedule go up and it got me thinking I should finally stop just sharing the post and actually show up. I know they do the free meals 5:30 to 6:30 in Fayetteville, Rogers and Bentonville…
- Veterans Day parade downtown this year?
Does anyone know if the Veterans Day parade is happening downtown this year, and what time to be there? We showed up last year and caught maybe the back half of it. Parked over by the Square, walked up, and everybody…
- Re: Still fighting about the Flock cameras, huh
I'll take that as the answer to my question: nobody here went. Fine. Travis asked the one useful thing, whether APD can still ask a business for the footage, so I'm emailing the city clerk and I'll post whatever comes…
- Re: Free bike helmets Saturday on the Greenway
Good luck getting a straight answer from the city number, but worth a shot. If they say kids only I'm going to have opinions, since my property taxes probably paid for half those helmets. Dusk on the Greenway this time…
- Re: carpet cleaner before thanksgiving? who do you useby Ethan M. in Recommendations ·
this is really helpful, thanks all. adding to my list: equipment type written on the quote, heavy soil cutoff, minimum charge, tax, and a price on the protector before they start. and i'll walk the hallway before i pay…
- Re: Free bike helmets Saturday on the Greenway
Good call, I'll try the city number tomorrow. Will plan on getting there right at 4 either way. The two fingers thing is news to me, pretty sure my youngest wears hers way too far back. I'll report back if I find out…
