Summer Sonic [05 Jul 2009|04:05pm] chemicalromance [sandersidle] [ mood | curious ] [ music | Lady Gaga - Paparazzi ] This is probably a really dumb question, but for Summer Sonic, it's broadcasted on TV, right? In Japan, I mean, haha. Also, I came across this http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.channel&ChannelID=1000566470 and it's probably nothing but it got me wondering if they'll maybe do a live stream from their myspace or something? I'm not familiar with Summer Sonic at all so I'm just wondering. Obviously I'm way too excited over this. :P Haha thanks. :) GIVE 'EM HELL

Witchy Complaint [05 Jul 2009|04:28pm] ckirisi Today, I decided to do some spellwork for a witchy friend who is traveling to a rough country. I'm sending him my money belt to borrow, and thought I'd embroider some symbols on to it or something. I also thought, "gee, maybe I can find some prewritten, nice little prayer," as I'm feeling wiped and exhausted and not capable of thinking today. Oops. I forgot that "protection spells" are about as prolific and silly as "healing spells" and "love spells" in some parts of the greater pagan community. After 15 minutes of reading about the "powerful" "dark" and "high level" magic, I decided to go back to my roots and do what I normally do: make shit up. On the way to this conclusion, I ran in to some spell that was supposed to... conjure a bunch of dead knights... to protect you. Strange enough as it was (I guess I shouldn't judge, but really? leave the dead alone, people) I was must surprised by the vocab. It was all "I command you" and "I bid you" etc etc. Who commands magical allies? Maybe I'm being a witchy snob here, but I feel like allies should be respected and loved like family members or friends. 3 GIVE 'EM HELL

Dancing [02 Jul 2009|11:40am] ann_arbor_ypsi [sweetness44] Where is a good place to go in A2/Ypsi for dancing? Not Top 40 clubbing, but more along the lines of 50s/60s, Frank Sinatra-esque type music? Oh, and smoking/decent martinis would also be a big plus. 2 GIVE 'EM HELL

Any other amateur mechanics looking for repair pals? [01 Jul 2009|05:23pm] ann_arbor_ypsi [captainblack] I just started taking automotive technician classes at WCC, and while I am no expert by any stretch of the imagination, I am more than good enough to provide any fellow do-it-yourself-er with a second pair of hands when you're repairing your car, doing maintenance, etc. I can now haltingly read wiring diagrams & schematics, though I still get a bit confused when using a multimeter/code reader. I can use a torque wrench to make sure things stay on (and don't break off). I know how to look for car info on teh internetz. I know a few basic things about what sounds and effects cars make when they are trying to tell you they need a vet appointment. I am beginning to understand all that confusing stuff about relays, charging systems, resistance, amperage, etc. I am careful and patient enough to take the time to not make a problem worse with ham-fisted wrenching technique. Just to clarify, I am NOT yet taking jobs repairing cars for pay. I am only good enough as yet to assist a basically competent do it yourself mechanic. Don't look to me as an expert (yet). This is going out to other amateur mechanics who might want a wrenching pal. I am volunteering to *help you* work on your car, for free, because I need all the practice I can get. In case it matters, I am a happily married youngish middle aged male. Since this town is a good place to be paranoid, we can provide each other with local character references before arranging a meeting, if you like. Can't hurt. 7 GIVE 'EM HELL

Adult learning centers? [01 Jul 2009|03:39pm] ann_arbor_ypsi [abmoit] Does anyone know of any adult learning centers in the area that can specifically teach reading? I have a cousin who is 23 whose reading level is not even that of a first grader. Oh, and I believe he is mildly autistic too, but that's besides the point. 4 GIVE 'EM HELL

Park and Ride Bus Service at Arborland [30 Jun 2009|04:56pm] ann_arbor_ypsi [quixotic_otaku] If you are interested in bus service continuing at Arborland Mall or if you use the parking lot as a commuter.  This service is scheduled to end tomorrow.  If you believe that having a commuter lot and bus service at Arborland is important, please call AmCap. ( Call to let them know that it is a disservice and is bad business to cut services ) Members of Interfaith Council for Peace and Justice's transit coalition have been trying to talk to someone at AmCap for many days now, and we've been told that their offices have been instructed to say "no comment" on this issue. They have been receiving a lot of calls.   The time is running out for us to try to address this issue. So I am asking you to try to make one last push. Can you call the AmCap corporate office today (203) 327-2001 and ask to speak to the president? If he is unavailable, simply leave a voicemail. Tell him what your concerns are and what the impact might be of moving the AATA bus stop..</div> Phone number and other verbage behind cut.  I just called and they were taking the name and phone number of everyone who called. 3 GIVE 'EM HELL

Fireworks in the area [29 Jun 2009|03:43pm] ann_arbor_ypsi [bigdoug] I have been looking up fireworks listing in the Washtenaw County area, as well as the Detroit area, and I have had little if any luck finding any listings. I keep on getting articles from 2008, 2007, 2005... doesn't help one bit. You would think they'd take those listings down after they were over, but I can't expect everyone to use their brain on this planet. All I know is that Ypsilanti is having their fireworks at the Lakeview Apartments down Grove St on Wednesday, around 10ish, and they'll be shooting them over Ford Lake. Hudson Mills outside of Dexter has one on Friday night, I believe. Milan used to have one, but I don't see anything about it. Whitmore Lake may be having some on the fourth. As for parades, I believe Ann Arbor and Ypsi are both having one, Ann Arbor usually has theirs at 10am. Whitmore Lake always has one, I'm not sure what the time is. If anyone can confirm dates and times for me, and we can list an official calendar up here, that would be nice. As it is, I can't find shit online. :/ 3 GIVE 'EM HELL

[29 Jun 2009|12:51pm] ann_arbor_ypsi [mudbloodbeer] My Googling results have been unsuccessful. Can someone tell me where I can donate canned goods to a local area food drive or bank? The closest one I've noticed is like, Lansing. 10 GIVE 'EM HELL
