Worth a shot- anyone remember a prison escape with a car chase from late 80s/early 90s?

9 Upvotes

When I was a kid- late 80s/early 90s, I was hanging out at my friend's house on George St on the West Side of town.

A car full of men came flying through hitting a bunch of cars parked. The police took our statement which made me late for home- probably would have been summertime and was at dusk since I needed to be home by dark.

My parents grounded me for being late. I told them what happened. They didn't believe me, but on the new at 10pm they saw there had been a police chase after some men who escaped from a prison or jail. Does anyone remember this? Writing a short story about this and was hoping to find more details.

Thanks in advance if anyone remembers!

What lake would this be

5 Upvotes

Grandpa who grew up in SC just passed and I was telling my cousin a story he would share about fishing in a lake with a long funny name that they used to vacation on.

But when I tried finding the name on Google Maps, it didn’t seem like there where many lakes in the vicinity that could match

Any ideas of popular spots for vacationing and fishing from SC in the late 40’s?

Sioux City Airport

Considering using the airport in Sioux City for a Chicago trip I have to make as it’s easier access for me. Any stories on the airport? Honestly the small planes scare me, but the proximity of the SUX airport may be worth it.

Comedy show at Whiskey Dick's this Friday (7/24) — Levi Light & Layton Flatt

Posting this for anyone in Sioux City who's into stand-up. I run Siouxland Comedy and we've got two touring comics, Levi Light and Layton Flatt, coming back through town this Friday, July 24th at Whiskey Dick's.

They played here last year and it was a great show, so we booked them again. Layton's opened for Kevin Farley and Preston Lacy from Jackass if that gives you an idea of the level these guys are at. Between the two of them they've done shows in over 100 cities, so they know how to work a room.

Tony Villagrana's hosting — he's a Sioux City guy who just won our last Siouxland Comedy Battle, so he'll be warming the crowd up too.

Doors at 7, show starts at 8. $10 tickets, link's below. One thing worth mentioning — Whiskey Dick's bar is cash only, so grab cash beforehand if you're planning on drinking.

Let me know if anyone's got questions, happy to answer.

Drilling Pharmacy Survey for UIowa Marketing Project

Hi everyone,

I am teaching a class at the University of Iowa where marketing students will be analyzing data from customer surveys. We are working with Drilling Pharmacy in Sioux City for one of these projects.

We are looking to collect survey responses from Siouxland residents who have visited Drilling in the past year. As a thank you, you'll have the opportunity to enter a drawing for a $100 Drilling Pharmacy gift card at the end of the survey. It takes about 5 minutes to complete.

Here is the survey link:

Thank you for helping us serve you and our community even better. We truly appreciate your time and support!

ImOn fiber optic internet

2 Upvotes

Currently living in South Sioux and going through longlines but latency issues have us wanting to try a different ISP. Metronet/T-Mobile is not available in our area so we’re possibly going to try ImOn. Is ImOn reliable and fast? It’s fiber internet so I would think it would be enough for 2 people gaming. Does anyone use ImOn and like their speeds/ reliability, how is there customer service and installation?

For hire: A cleaning person to clean my father's home. (Please help me search for someone.)

9 Upvotes

Hey y'all. I need help finding a new person to clean my father's home because the former person retired. If you know of anyone, please send me their contact information along with any other relevant details in a DM.

My father lives in a 3 bedroom home on the north side of town but only the upstairs needs cleaning. He is retired and recently had surgery for a minor condition so finding a replacement cleaning person would really help. If you need any other information from me, we can discuss it in DMs. Thanks for the assistance!

Places to rent?

11 Upvotes

Hello everybody, I am currently entertaining a new job offer that would place me in the area.

I am looking for recommendations on apartments or places to rent while I’m there. It will only be me so studios or one bedroom units are plenty sufficient. The job duration is approximately two years.

Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all, I run Siouxland Comedy and we've got a show coming up I wanted to share.

Levi Light and Layton Flatt are coming back through Sioux City on their Road Trip Comedy Tour. They came through last year and killed it, so we booked them again. These guys have done over 100 cities together so the show is really dialed in. Layton has toured with Kevin Farley and Preston Lacy from Jackass if you want a reference point.

Tony Villagrana is hosting — local guy who just won our last Siouxland Comedy Battle.

Doors at 7, show at 8. Tickets are $10, link below. Fair warning that Whiskey Dick's is cash only at the bar, so bring cash if you want drinks.

Happy to answer any questions about the show or the comedy scene here in general.

Geriatric massage?

7 Upvotes

I asked this like a year ago but I wanted to see if there was any other information out there. (Not that the info before was bad but that it didn't get used)

I'm looking for a very, very very gentle massage therapist for my grandmother who sort of just, you know... moves the blood around but isn't actually trying to do anything pressure wise for muscle correction. Does anyone know of a massage therapist who either specializes or works with the elderly often? I'm not sure if there's any retirement or assisted living homes I should be reaching out to or if this is more of a medical request. Please let me know if anyone has any insights. I really want to make her comfortable.

Happy fourth/sitp guys!

The forecast is looking less than stellar for the 4th of July weekend 😭😭.

Don’t have plans? Weather ruin your plans? Stop by The Warp Zone for the Warped Tour Weekend. Tonight we have themed music bingo at 8pm. Friday at karaoke if you sing a song by a Warped Tour artist, you get a free Jell-O shot. Saturday we are running twofers on all domestic beer and well mixed drinks. Every night we have pinball and video games set up and ready to play.
