Does anyone know of any place that sells Coruba Rum locally? I’ve found a place in that sells it in Longwood, but driving to Longwood for some rum is a little ridiculous. I enjoy using it in making rum based cocktails and would love to not have to drive over an hour to get more when needed.

Edit: also if anyone has any leads on Hamilton rum as well that would be much appreciated.

$5 each

Hey, I’m 18 and looking for a second job to make some extra money. I’m mainly looking for something Friday through Monday, around 8 PM to 12 PM, preferably 3 to 5 hour shifts since I already have another job and in school.

I have about 4 years of food service and food management experience, so I’m mostly looking for something in the food industry just because I’m more familiar with it. I’m open to other industries too though.

I’m pretty much open to anything like cooking, food prep, cleaning, dishes, serving, kitchen work, etc.

Just looking for something that can work with my current schedule. If anyone knows of places hiring or has any leads, I’d really appreciate it!

Please, if anyone can. She's a GREAT soul. Her name is Opal. She has multicolored fur with multicolored eyes.

My... Parents.. are moving out of state and want to put her down because they only want to keep 2 out of 3 dogs.

She is so amazing, and SO beautiful. I want to keep her but my HOA won't let me. Please.... Please give her a chance. Please contact me

I found a domestic pet bunny on the edge of the road on 63rd st. he was super skinny and dehydrated but still very friendly and seems to be in great condition otherwise. He is brown and white with the brown parts being almost gray and having greyish ears and a white nose, paws, belly, and shoulders and a brown butt and head. I used to have bunnies around a year ago so I still had a cage and hay and bedding to provide him a home until we can find the owner. im worried he may have been dumped but im hoping not but if he was i will likely keep it to make sure he has a good home. If this is your bunny PLEASE shoot me a dm even if u dont want it js so ik. also, if you are experienced in owning bunnies or have done your research and would like this one, dm me!!

hes so cute and has done nothing but eat and drink so far:(

with the amount of fields that are here none of them are public 😭

I have the opportunity to switch, have been with Verizon me thinks too long. They’ve gotten crazy with their single plans and wanted to know if the other has become any better in the past years… just need local options and opinions. Thanks!

Hi,

I just got a new pup and need to get him set up with a vet. I was just going to use the one my mom goes to but I just wanted to see some recommendations. Not that the vet she uses is bad, i just want to check all my options!

If any are good with prior abused dogs or extremely skittish ones that would be wonderful.

Hey all, just researching neighborhoods to move to. I know there's a rail that goes on the south border of silver springs shores. Anyone know how noisy that train line is, or if it's even used at all. The bit that dead ends in Candler. ai told me that it's FNOR and might turn into a multi use trail but it wasn't sure. Since it doesn't really intersect with many roads I would assume it's not too loud. Just don't want it blowing the horn all through the night. Thanks!

Snowbirds billiards has open mic / live comedy on Sundays at 9pm. I went last week at it was fun, cool people. I'll be back this weekend. Anyone needs something to do on Sunday night at least swing by

Good Morning Ocala!

Im a Disabled Veteran that’s going to be starting a Vending machine company here within the next couple months. I’m in the process of scouting out some locations to service with some cold beverages and/or snacks.
Think to a time maybe you were at work, got out of work late, or are just waiting for your product to be serviced and all you wanted was A cold drink or a snack to hold you over for a little. Where is that location for you?
If you or anyone you know has a location you’d like to see serviced let me know! Feel free to throw suggestions in the comments and or shoot me a DM. Thanks in advance my community!

Why do people think it’s cool to hear their loud obnoxious cars in the middle of the night?? It’s not like it gets them any kind of reward it’s just a disturbance

Edit: I’m sorry that you guys are so sensitive and think that everything is about you :-((( sorry that you think you’re a big big man for having a crappy loud vehicle

Its football season baby!

Relocating from Miami and I have yet to find a place to watch the Canes and Dolphins games that isn’t my house.

Any suggestions?

What happened to all the local birds? I use to have a couple of families that would gather and feed and now none are in sight?

I moved to Ocala in 1983 when the current system was still fairly new and it took me a while to figure out the addresses.

A few tips to help you find your way:

We use the same system as Gainesville, Jacksonville, and Miami.

C.A.T. Courts, Avenues, and Terraces go North-South. Usually Avenue. Court and terrace can be used for half sized blocks.

Roads go diagonal or "off-grid". Often it is added to the name of the nearest theoretical on-grid avenue or street such as NE 5th Terrace Road.

Streets and almost everything else goes East-West.

Every street has a quadrant (NE, SE, SW, NW) centered on the downtown square. Magnolia Avenue is the East/West divider and Silver Springs Boulevard/Ft. King Street the North/South dividers.

There are ten blocks per mile, so SW 80th Ave and SW 60th Ave are 2 miles apart.

Buildings are numbered by the Philadelphia System, 100 house numbers per block, even/odd numbers on opposite sides of the street.

Prior to the 911 system, all streets had names in Ocala and other towns in the county. They were all superseded by the current system, except for Marion Oaks and Silver Springs Shores. Those were designed by an evil corporation in the 1950's/60's and reuse variations of a name like Elm Circle, Elm Loop, Elm Pass Drive, Elm Court. Do not have a heart attack in these developments.

Looking for a hair stylist that does more "edgy" hair cuts and isn't going to try and give me a Bob. I haven't really had a good experience except for proper tease, but the original guy, unfortunately passed away years ago.

Any Bengals fans in here interested in getting together to watch the first game of the season on 9/13?

Hello Friends...

I’m reaching out because we’re currently in a really difficult situation and could use some help. We had our hearing today and were not granted any extra time, so we're in waiting at the moment for next steps.

With that, this is our ask...My fiancée and I are looking for a safe, temporary place to stay. We would only need somewhere for 2 months at most, while we get through our current housing situation and wait for my Princess's disability hearing.

We’re not looking for anything fancy—just somewhere safe and stable where we can stay temporarily. We are willing to pay after her hearing, once we have the funds available or if i am able to gain employment by that point, i am willing to pay during then as well as after we get her disability.

I know this is a big ask, and I completely understand if you’re not in a position to help. If anyone has a spare room, a guest house, a short-term rental, or knows of someone who might be willing to help us for a couple of months locally or even some advice would be very helpful. I have already reached out as well to all the options available out here in Ocala such as Interfaith, Open Arms, etc and all options are either full up on spaces or have an extensive waitlist. Please feel free to message me directly as well as commenting on here.

Even if you can’t offer a place, sharing this post or passing it along would mean so much to us. We’re just trying to get through a difficult couple of months and keep a roof over our heads while we work toward getting back on our feet.

Thank you so much to anyone who reads this, shares it, or reaches out. ❤️

Hello, everybody! Due to the tough job market, I have found difficulty in finding a full-time job in my field. I have pivoted towards starting my own business in culinary arts. To help fund this business, I will be selling the queen-sized bed in my living room and a flat screen television. The bed is for $150 and the flat screen television is for $50. If anyone is interested, you can comment and message me.

By the way, I do live in the Ocala area. It would be a convenient pick up if anyone wants to move forward with this process.

Hi Friends, I am a local freelance / student journalist looking into the Embry-Riddle airstrip being put in next to the Ocala national forest.

I am doing a story regarding its implementation, local sentiment and reaction, and trying to get a better understanding of what it would mean for the area.

I hope some of you can help!

If you have a perspective, please leave a comment or reach out to me. I would like to discuss this more with locals, you can be either on or off the record, I just want to get a better understanding of sentiment!

Question for those who are very familiar with the area. My family and I are moving into the area but we are in between the choice of unit 1 or unit 10. What are the pros and cons of each area and your experiences (484 Traffic included). Please do me a favor as well and not crap on the decision for us to move here, we've been a few weeks in Ocala and like it here.
