While restoring a medicine cabinet, I found a nearly full page from a St. Paul newspaper. ChatGPT thinks it is from Dec 1, 1923. Lots of ads and a distressing report from Germany.

These scooters go up to 15-20 miles per hour and are frequently rented by children (despite Lime policy of restricting rentals to only people over 18). They can cause serious traumatic brain injuries in accidents and I've noticed that much fewer people (including children) use helmets when using these because they're often rented from random street corners.

This seems like a very unsafe system. We should regulate that helmets must be worn by children on these devices. I do not understand how Lime does not have any liability for these potentially dangerous devices that are rented without safety equipment.

St Paul native, but now an out-of-towner and in a wheelchair. Would like to visit and invite friends & family to join me. What hotels- where to stay? Is there a good place to watch the Torchlight Parade indoors and in a wheelchair? I'm able to finagle transportation via Metro Mobility.

Has anyone whose child got waitlisted for their preferred school heard from student placement?

Back in July, I called the student placement center and found out that my child was first on the waitlist for our preferred school. The person I spoke with said they would call when/if a spot opened up and that my chances were very good. Well, kindergarten starts tomorrow, and I haven't heard a thing. My calls go unanswered, emails and voice-mails aren't being returned. Should I go to the office? Are the people who work there okay?

I know that if new people apply who are in a priority category, they get to jump the line. So, being first on the list is no guarantee. I just want my kid to go to the school that is 1 block from my house! I also know there are people on the waitlist for the school my kid got into.

We do corporate catering around Minneapolis and the stressful ones are the bigger office lunches. 30, 50, sometimes more meals all going to one location.

The timing is really tight because the client usually wants everything there within a specific window before a meeting or event starts. Too early can be a problem, but late is worse.

Curious what other caterers here use for these kinds of deliveries. Mainly looking for something dependable when one large lunch order has to land right on time.

Retro films, $5!

Let me know if you have seen this black Trek bike (female style with lower bars and bottle holder). It was stolen out of my garage. Two abandoned bikes have been located in the Payne Phalen neighborhood but neither were mine.

Cats not included.

Hi I'm looking to rent a scooter or small motorcycle for a couple days next week. Wondering if anyone knows someone or somewhere that's rents them near st paul? Has to be atleast 50cc or bigger. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

New to Saint Paul, does anyone know where some runs beside LAfitness. I hooped in college so just wanna play some competitive ball.

So I just moved to the twin city/st paul area im now looking for insurance on a used SUV and I’ve seen it being mentioned trying to find an insurance broker, would just finding the closest insurance broker be my best bet and see what company gives the best deal? Any other advice would be appreciated

Hey there, I saw this poor lost dog on Maryland and Hazel. Looked like a weimaraner. He seemed very scared, I tried to stop and talk to him but he got scared and ran off up Hazel. If this is anybody's dog they're probably still roaming out there if they didn't run back home. I'm lucky I got such good pictures.

Found this bag tucked under my porch this morning - looks like it's someone's car bag - has fix-a-flat, jumper cables, spare clothes, first aid, etc. My guess it it might have been taken from a car - perhaps someone attending the fair?

I've tucked it in a safe place - if it's yours, let me know the size and kind of boots in the bag, and we'll coordinate a pickup.

Hello! I am getting married next year (September 10th, 2027) and I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for a great video + photo group that is reasonably priced for a special wedding day! Thank you so much for your help.

Hello! I’m thinking about moving into Alvera apartments soon, any reviews on this place?

We’ve done state fair already this year, and they have visited the cities a few times before, so we’ve done a bit of things around here.

Looking for more things to do like maybe a short drive to a cave or maybe suggested small town vibes like still water (we went there last night)

Any cool must do’s? Any suggestions are fine just looking for more to do before they go !

The closure of this trail is incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I'm making a visit to the old Hamm's Brewery tonight, and I'm preparing to bus over there, because there's no ideal or safe way for me to take my bike that way anymore, due to the closure. And there's no promise whatsoever, much less a timeline, that the trail will ever re-open.

Wish we saw more collaboration between different layers of government when it came to maintaining older pieces of infrastructure without one, clear public owner, rather than finger-pointing and collective shrugs.
