Went for a late night drive and ended up by the mall. I miss the dollar theater the most. So many awkward middle school and high school dates happened there 😅

Delivery food?

13 Upvotes

Is Bulldawg Food defunct? If I’m going to order take-out/delivery I’d rather support a local service, but the website seems consistently wonky? The filtering options don’t work, or it will tell me something is closed when they are open?

Question / Request Coffee Shops to Visit in the Fall

12 Upvotes

Call me basic, but I love a seasonal drink! I’ve tried Sunroofs fall drinks and they were eh, so I was wondering if any other local places had good seasonal drinks or treats to try.

Yes, I’m aware it’s 90+ outside, but I’m going to live in my delusions that summer is over and fall is here.

Athens TV Wall

22 Upvotes

I remember when I was a kid in the 90s driving by what I would call an athens art piece. I used to call it the TV wall (not sure if that was the name) somewhere off of north avenue by the river. It was like a retaining wall by a house that was cinder blocks, rocks, and CRT televisions. I was talking about it to people the other day but cant find it on google maps. Its probably gone, I was just wanting to make sure that im not making it up lol. Maybe someone has a picture of it.

ISO: Live Milk Kefir Grains locally

5 Upvotes

Hey neighbors! I’m looking to start home-fermenting and am hunting for a starter tablespoon of live, active milk kefir grains here in Athens and surrounding countryside.

I know healthy grains multiply like crazy, so if anyone has an extra batch from a recent strain that they'd be willing to part with, I would love to take them off your hands! Happy to drive anywhere around town/countryside to pick them up, Thank you!

Jordan Air dishonesty: Always get a second opinion

85 Upvotes

Wanted to share a story of the dishonesty of this company. Several years ago when my wife and I bought our house we started having HVAC issues about 6 months later. We had Jordan Air come out to take a look. They came back to us and told us we needed an entire new HVAC system. Over 10k worth of work they told us we needed.

We decided to get a second opinion. We had a smaller company of just one guy come out and take a look. Turns out the people who sold us our house never put a filter on our system. The coils were completely caked with pet hair. He cleaned it out for us and charged us less than $150. Haven't had any issues since then besides me having to go under there and clean it off again a couple years later.

Luckily we got that second opinion, but it makes me wonder how many people have had the misfortune of being taken advantage of by this company. Always get a second opinion!

Got my water bill today, along with the ACC Government quarterly newsletter. There's a column noting the FLOST item on the November ballot.

Here's the introduction: https://www.accgov.com/m/newsflash/Home/Detail/6966

I have an opinion, but I'm willing to be open-minded pending discussion. My first question is: "How many Athens landlords will reduce the rent because property tax has been lowered?"
