To the Rav4 driver at Costco around 6PM

You’re a douche for trying to cut through parking as I’m reversing and have the audacity to look at me like I’m the asshole. You’re a mental midget for trying to intimidate me by peeling off in a RAV4 and act like you were going to hit my truck. Sincerely, go fuck yourself.

Spectrum Salesman

Anyone in the south hills neighborhood have a Spectrum rep going door to door selling internet today? I've never seen this before and got a sketchy vibe.

Solid Aluminum Riveting?

I have an aluminum canoe and it needs one rivet replaced. I can do it myself but I would have to buy a bunch of stuff that I’ll probably only use once. I’d rather pay someone to do it for me.

Does anyone know a shop that can do solid aluminum rivets? Maybe an aircraft mechanic?

Company proposing battery project in Morro Bay pauses application, goes to state for approval

https://www.ksby.com/morro-bay/company-proposing-battery-project-in-morro-bay-pauses-application-goes-to-state-for-approval

Makes sense they would go the state route. Its so hard to get anything done in SLO county...

United Healthcare at Sierra Vista

Has anyone processed a UH claim through Sierra Vista? My OB only delivers at SV and is an in-network provider with UH but SV is not listed as an in network hospital. I’ve not heard of the network mismatch between doctors and the hospitals that they are associated with especially with OBGN’s and delivering a baby.

Our club's equipment is stored at McLintock's...how can we get it?

I'm sure the manager isn't in a good place right now, but we have valuable equipment that belongs to a club that isn't affiliated with the restaurant, and we have no way to access it. Repeated tries to contact him have gone unanswered. What would our recourse be?

Update: One of our club members was able to get hold of the manager and retrieve our equipment. Whew...what a relief! Thanks to everyone for your advice and offers of help.

South County’s October surprise

Looks like the same lady leading the charge against water rates is getting a needs-based reduced water rate herself, while having multiple income streams from published books, air bnbs, and her own real estate firm.

To qualify for the reduced water rate from the city, you have to demonstrate enrollment in PG&E’s reduced rate program. If she paid $36k in TOT alone last year, and PG&E says you can’t make more than $40k a year to qualify for their program, how did she manage to get on the City’s roster of water rate beneficiaries? Seems like that would be an easy thing to prevent. Granted, I think most people reviewing applications for the reduced water rate program would not think to themselves “let me cross reference this address with our permitted short term rentals.”

The light got kind of crazy this morning with the clouds and a rainbow? What? It was far brighter just a couple minutes before, but I wasn't in a spot to get a good shot. Happy Halloween!

What's the dating scene like for the mid thirties to early forties crowd?

I have the advantage of working remotely, and I've been considering SLO as an option lately. Is it hopeless as a single guy to meet someone there? With any college town, I worry about the age gap between students and the full time population. When I lived in Flagstaff, AZ there weren't a ton of people my age making things happen. Mostly retirees and students otherwise.

I really liked Ascendos hot chocolate. Looking for other options as it starts to feel more like fall!

Any Diwali celebrations in SLO?

My husband and I are looking for Diwali celebrations in or around SLO, does anyone know of any festivities going on? I heard of one in SB but would rather keep it more local. I have asked around but no one seems to know of any. Thanks in advance!

Best place to star gaze in North County?

Looking for somewhere to chill with my fiancé and watch the stars away from light pollution. Any hidden gems?

  • Bonus points for anyone that can point me in the direction of a beach that will allow a small fire during sunset 💛

Recycling Centers/turning cans in?

I’ve collected a lot of cans since moving here, and back home we could just take them to this place that just bought cans/glass. Anything like that here?

Christmas Village ideas

Hello SLO! Years ago I inherented my grandma's Department 56 Christmas Village.

20-30 houses plus the people, sleigh, horses and cart and even a mountain.

I do not have the space to enjoy it at home, and thinking about renting it out (I would set up and break down).

It would be absolutely nostalgic in a.... Bank lobby Winery tasting room Front window display Set up for the company Christmas party....

I am seeking any additional ideas or welcome messages from interested business owners/managers.

I always thought Arbor Day was in April? Oddly enough, November 4th is Monday (says Saturday on the sign)
