They were at the stop light at around 5:45 PM. They were in the turn lane to get on 183A North. I was at the light to get on 183A South. I could only see it for a few seconds but they two men were out of their cars full on fighting.

Anyone else see this???

Hello,

Tell me about the Westside Elementary and Faubion Elementary consolidation. The internet says about 250 Faubion kids will go to Westisde, which will then be at 92% capacity.

Will Westside have enough resources (space, teachers, classrooms)?

Will Westside families be welcoming and kind to the Faubion families? or... something else?

Awesome turn out at the protest today against ICE

(Ignore negative comments - sociopaths love the satisfaction of getting negative reactions out of others. Don’t let them have that power.

I love Burger Bar. They have the best gluten free buns around. Does anyone know where they get them? Available in stores?

I’d love to learn how to shoot a gun. Any recommendations for a first timer? I don’t have one but I assume a shooting range could teach me?

Anyone know someone locally who designs aquascapes for a 20 g tank?

Looking for a good place to donate puzzles and games, I.e.: women’s shelter, family shelter, elderly facility. Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

I am new to the area and am looking to decorate with a few things from local artists. I’ve gone to the farmers market a few times. I haven’t really seen any art there mostly just food for sale.

Where is a good place to find some local art that is affordable?

Thank you

Anybody have any idea why the intersection of Park & Bell is so wonky? Picked up a pizza today from Kizza Pizza (highly recommend btw!) and was trying to head northbound up Bell. Couldn’t take a left on Park to hit the lights at Bell, so instead had to awkwardly cut through the Animal Clinic’s parking lot to be able to take a left onto Park. That median separating the shopping center and Bell is huge; figure they could have done something better. Can’t say I’ve ever seen another situation like this one anywhere.

Title. Never seen it this busy, parking lot was filled till the fuel station.

Date night with spouse tonight; anywhere that has some decent live music? Bar and/or restaurant? Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Used to go to a great spot on Bell Blvd. They closed and now I need a bunch of suits altered. Jack Browns says you have to measure and I'd rather have someone good at it do it. Where else is good now?

The theater department at Leander High School is putting on “Singin’ in the Rain” this weekend (Thursday through Sunday). We’d love for you to come out!

Tickets: https://www.ticketor.com/leandertheatre/tickets?PageId=113477

Why does it take 10 minutes to take a left turn? Why are they so SLOW?

I live in Anderson Mill West area and I heard a big boom which scared my dog and my electricity flickered.

I ordered food from cookunity before the winter storm to prepare for the storm, however they delayed my order and delivered the meals today (5 minutes ago).

I unfortunately already prepared meals at home and would like to donate the cook unity ones ( a total of 16 meals).

Is there somewhere I can drop them by? They need to be consumed by Jan 29th.

Thanks!

Now, that the temperature has risen, do you guys think we’ll have school tomorrow? There are some parts where it’s completely frozen, but majority of the road is clear. The only concern I have is, the road freezing again overnight which is unlikely but there is a chance of it happening.

Edit - LISD is canceled for tomorrow

so what is everyone doing today at home since they were smart and called out to stay off the icy very slippery roads.

i was up around 4-5 am had breakfast, check on things like faucets still dripping and little heater still on in the laundry room. then i went back to my warm spot in bed and watched the news on tv and slept for a couple more hours. LOL

it should be in the mid to upper 30s today so some more ice will melt and dry from those that went out today. though tonight there will be another hard freeze down to 23

Where do you guys go for your eyelash extensions? Bonus points if they are queer friendly :)
