Helped a friend move in to a house near 56th / 465 on the east side this weekend. We discovered that the shower faucet doesn't seem to be getting much / any cold water, so she needs a plumber to figure that out. And she needs an electrical outlet (and maybe cable) added to a wall where there...
What to do about a sink hole?
I noticed that in my front yard yesterday.. it's about 4' deep. maybe 3' long and about 1.5' out from the electric box. I can't see any underground utility lines, yet. The ground further out was pretty soft, so I can see the hole expanding as we get more rain...
Around 4:30-ish today I was behind a black Dodge Ram turning from east bound Pleasant Street to south bound SR37. POW plates, INGO sticker in back window above an American flag sticker. Who was it? Tried to take a picture but it came out a blurry mess.

It sounds like a place like Fogo De Chao, but the price is considerably lower... For those that haven't experienced Fogo, if you don't leave there with meat sweats, you've done something terribly wrong. Servers dressed as Brazilian cowboys walk around with skewers of...

Mom told me today that we won't be going to my Uncle's house for Thanksgiving like we normally do. She wants to come down here from Muncie and go out somewhere.
A few years ago we went to Loon Lake Lodge and really enjoyed it, but they're closed now. Anyone have a Turkey Day favorite? I've...
An obituary was placed in England for a 99 year old RAF veteran, Harold Jellicoe Percival, that died as a single man and had children to attend his funeral. The funeral home asked for anyone available to attend and spread the word via social media.

When I had my AC serviced in the spring, they told me my run capacitor was getting weak. It's a 7.5 MFD (he wrote 7.5 run cap on the service history sheet) and apparently measured at 4.8. It was just 3 years old at the time. They were wanting $40 for a new one, but I decided to pass at the...
Since the beginning of June I've been following a half marathon training plan for the Indianapolis Monumental Half Marathon, which I ran today (sorry if you were caught in the traffic mess). The training plan said that if I followed it I should be able to run 1:52:28! That was a crazy number...
Found out this afternoon that I'll be losing my job of 7.5 years on November 29. Why? Because they're instituting a new policy that any contractor that has been there more than 18 months needs to go. Why? I don't know. Yea, I've been a contractor that long but I got benefits and PTO, so it...
I was surfing around YouTube and found this video. Thought some of you (locals especially) would find it interesting. That's a ton of crap in the back! Friendly officer and apparently highly trained. :yesway:

I got home from work about 8:30 tonight and my neighbor was outside putting tarps on his roof. He'd bee working on replacing it for the past few weeks, but it's been so dry that he hasn't messed with tarps on the front of the house. Well, tonight there was some rain in the forecast, so he...
Anyone know if .223 is allowed on the range at Indy Trading Post? I know it wasn't when the place first opened, but I also know they did some upgrades, but I'm not sure if rifles are allowed now. I built an AR around the beginning of the year and have never shot it. I have two stamps left on...
I was sitting on my deck enjoying the cool weather when I saw a little bunny come screaming across the yard like a bat outta hell making a line for his hole that leads under the deck. Not entirely strange as they do like to play in my yard. A few seconds later, a hawk landed on the lowest tree...
Went to the State Fair today and decided to catch the Super Pull at 1PM for just $5... Wow. Those machines are AMAZING. I've never seen anything quite like it. I don't know that I'll go again, but it sure was neat watching this one. If I do go again, ear plugs are a must. I listened to the...
