Fascia work/repair

Hi everyone. I live on the south side and a piece of fascia is falling off the front of my house. It's roughly 2 and a half stories off the ground.

It's approximately 4 feet long, up towards the peak of the house.

I have people I would normally call to help me with stuff, but I don't know anyone who can get that high - or anyone willing to get on the roof.

Edit to add: fascia may not be the right term. It's a metal piece of trim that is attached to the fascia board. It probably just needs to be nailed in by someone who can access it.

Some guy just scared the hell out of us from his car

I'm doubtful the person will see it on here. I couldn't understand him, but some maniac just yelled at us then kept going.

This town is full of crazies

Done participating in Halloween

Too old to be trick or treating and steals the entire bucket. Be lame and take the candy all you want but taking our nice mixing dish too? Second year in a row, won't make that mistake again. If you recognize these people just remind them how much they suck

A podcast with a Broome County social worker

Hello again all! We’re back again today with a social worker from Broome County with an incredible perspective. There’s a case study relevant to this video that we quote. If you would like to take a look at it, it’s been added to the video description. In detail, it speaks about an individual and their struggle through homelessness. I personally think this is one of the best episodes I was able to produce. I think it’s worth it to anybody would like to know more about these situations or to those living in Binghamton. Thanks for watching as always!

After another opportunity to meet with the COB

Hello everyone and Welcome Back to the In One Ear Out Podcast. Today I discuss as much as I can about how my efforts are progressing and my most recent meeting with the City of Binghamton. The intention of these videos are not to show the inadequacies of the City but to allow for a transparent window into the conversations that affect our community. I have little intention to provide constant material with the City, but in regards to the issues most relevant to myself, this is what I have to say. I leave all sensitive details pertinent to an individual’s identity out of this conversation today as a token of respect. It is also come to my attention that the City of Binghamton has viewed my videos and will most likely continue to watch my Podcasts. This has been made with that in mind. Thank you all who found the patience to watch and spend some time with Jon. Until next time, and thanks for watching!!

Bed bugs at Guthrie Gym

Found a bedbug on my bolster during a yoga class. Be vigilant if you go there. The bolsters were filthy. I'm sure there's more than just the one.

Anyone have pictures of the night time view from Oakridge Drive overlooking the city?

I've gone up that road a few times over the years and it has my favorite view of the city. If you know the street and know where that steel beam construction house is on the hillside, it's the view from their property.

Before that house was build you could see the what looked like a white river of light (street lights) surrounded by multicolored flower like lights (various building lights). It was a great view and up until the house was completed you could enjoy it. I drove by there last week and noticed that the finished building blocked out the view now.

I was wondering if anyone happened to have a picture taken from there before the building was complete?

Keys

Lost my car keys downtown, I’m offering a $50 reward, I still can’t find them and it’s ridiculously expensive to get them replaced. If anyone could help me I would be so grateful. I was near lost dog and the Grove 🙏

Where to watch hockey?

Hey folks. Which restaurants or bars can I go to to watch NHL games? I know places like beer tree factory always do football but idk which places have the means to play NHL games (specifically the Rangers game this Friday). My friends are coming to visit and they love watching hockey, I like watching it too but not enough to pay to stream it when I’m on my own. Thanks!!

Can I vote early using an affidavit ballot, or will I have to wait until Election Day?

TL;DR; my voter registration change of address didn't go through as I had hoped, and now the deadline has passed (I'm originally registered in NYC, and unfortunately can't take time off work to go back home and vote). I'm trying to vote affidavit, but unsure if I can vote early or if I will have to wait until next Tuesday.

The Shop, on Washington street in Binghamton.

Hello, a friend of mine was looking for a place that sells crepes and I saw something on this page about The Shop selling them.

If you've been there how would you rate your experience?
Have you tried the crepes? Were they good?

By chance did you ever try the crepes at the small Bosnian Cafe on main street in Binghamton near dunkin donuts that was in the same row of buildings as Nirchis? -- I've had the crepes there and they were great, but they went out during covid. -- I'm wondering how The Shop's crepes compare.

Best university for History major?

Hi everyone, I am a high school senior looking for colleges to apply to. I plan on majoring in history and then going to law school. I live in NYC but am looking to go abroad. I have had Binghamton University, Stony Brook, and Penn University in mind for the programs they offer but I don't know how difficult it will be to get into. I also have a low income, an average of 86% being first generation and immigrant. I have some extracurriculars and service hours along with a folder with the art I create. Obviously, I'm looking for a university that offers a good education in my major, that has a good social life and is cheap, I'll take any recommendation!!

Yard Waste Question

Hi. I just recently moved into Binghamton (I'm a Broome County native though), and I read on the city website that yard waste is picked up on Mondays for the whole city. Is it normal for my yard waste to still not be picked up even though it's after 12pm? I just want to know if I'm doing this right.

Thank you in advance.
