Hello thanks for looking. I live on tesson ferry. Looking to pull my mazda6 with a broken timing chain over to the next lot because they are asphalting the monday. I have the tow strap and can offer some money. Just looking for someone that can help me please. Sorry its such last minute but all my options that were free disappeared.

Last 2 actions the incompetent board has taken is to give the chief higher pay than in nyc or Chicago and give command staff a 22% raise. That won’t do anything to help recruit and retain patrol.

Need a storage unit, and looking for any recommendations, either good or bad.

Ideally temperature controlled, probably 10 x 10.

I've heard stories of people having their units ransacked, and really hoping to avoid that.

Currently in Oakville but looking to move closer to South City within next few months, so I'm hoping to find something around there.

I am planning 2 new pieces both full leg sleeves and the styles I want, I dont know of any local artists who do this style.

For one I want a full Ghibli themed piece and the other I want a full leg sleeve based on The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse. The style of the book specifically.

Looking for recommendations. Thanks in advance.

There is like no crime in south county lol

Why do they always have a cop here?

Trying to get someone to look at the furnace. He a bad experience with Hoffman. Patriot came out and although I had good experience with the technician I felt like it was pretty expensive it would be 1500 or 2000 to fix it with their subscription service (🙄). And then they said in 2 weeks the price would go up due to inflation (🙄🙄). Was wondering if anyone had a good pick preferably in the south city area.

Is anyone interested in a couple of tickets to the Bright Eyes show tonight? I was excited to go, but unfortunate circumstances have me a little battered and bruised. Pay/Barter what you’d like for the tickets, I can send them via email.

From St. Louis Daily's Sarah Fenske:

A new polar bear is coming to town—one that could precipitate the pitter patter of little polar bear paws. The Saint Louis Zoo says 5-year-old Laerke (pronounced LAIR-keh), who arrives this fall from a zoo in Tacoma, is being eyed as a mate for Kallu, 4, who’s been solo in McDonnell Polar Bear Point ever since his twin was shipped to Oregon last January.

Laerke was born at the Detroit Zoo, but had enough health problems that she was ultimately “hand-reared by humans,” in the zoo’s words. An orphaned grizzly bear cub was an early companion before Laerke was reunited with her twin sister in Tacoma three years ago. Her new pairing is being eyed as a way to ensure the survival of her species. “Every move like this represents an important step toward securing the future of polar bears,” said Matt Thompson, spokesperson for the Polar Bear Population Alliance. Talk about pressure!

• Laerke won’t debut in St. Louis until after quarantine and acclimation. “Introductions between Kallu and Laerke will take some time, and guests may not see the pair together in the habitat until early next year,” the zoo warns. Let’s try not to be those nosy relatives, asking awkwardly whether anyone’s thought about grandchildren. —S.F.

We were just at Frances park playground and my son left his beloved baseball glove there. We just got home to Kirkwood and realized what happened but I can’t make it back to the park right now. This is a last shot attempt… if you can find his blue baseball glove in the park (we think it was left at the playground inside a Halloween bag), $50 for the finders fee. He’s so devastated and is learning a major life lesson about keeping track of our belongings, but I want to help him get it back. Thank you in advance and if you’re up for it and locate it, please comment and dm me! I’ll send our address if you locate it.

I have one friend on Tinder already that might be down, but seems like you need a group of 3. My buddy and I like to drink, we're union carpenters, funny guys, maybe a little rough around the edges. I'm 31 he's 42 I believe.

VOP is reporting maurio has been apprehended 👏👏👏

City Dispensary in Fenton, MO. Had been going there for years and then a few days ago I went by and they had a ‘this location has closed’ sign on the door.

No warning, as far as I could tell.

So, St Louis, what’s your fav dispensary in the St. Louis region? Bonus if it’s in or near Fenton

I'm Egyptian and Just knew today that St. Louis Missouri was named after Saint Louis IX, and we the inhabitants of the city of Mansoura are very familiar with this name !

Even more interesting, Mansoura also shares its name with Mansura, Louisiana !

Historically, King Louis IX of France was captured and imprisoned at Mansoura in 1250 during the Seventh Crusade. This was a significant moment in French history. Then, some French settlers in Louisiana named this town Mansura.

P.S.

1- There is an anecdote here in Egypt that people of Mansoura are sons of Frenchmen because King Louis IX got captured here :”D

2- The first Pic is the prison of Louis IX in Mansoura, it is called Dar Ibn Luqman (Ibn Luqman's House).

I just saw them in a St. Louis County apartment complex. I thought they only covered the City.

Hello! I have 2 tickets to see Emma Nissen tonight, October 18th, at 7 PM at City Winery St. Louis.

The show is sold out, but unfortunately, we can’t make it. I paid $100 total for both tickets and am just looking to get my money back.

Happy to provide proof of purchase and transfer the tickets.

DM me if interested. Thanks!

Greetings, St. Louisans!

I’m reaching out for suggestions for volunteer opportunities in St. Louis for my mom. My dad (her husband) passed away a few weeks ago and I’m worried that she’s going to be lonely and distraught without some productive way to spend her time.

She loves horses. They’re the best part of her life. If she could find a gig just doing basic caretaker work for horses (whether a private individual’s horse, a community organization that maintains stables, etc.), she would find that very fulfilling and meaningful. She also has been a longtime caretaker of dogs and cats and would be eager to help with them, too.

Some basic points:
- Thanks to a recent knee surgery and treatment for a breathing problem, her mobility is the best it has been in years, and she’s eager to move around outside (she keeps a lovely garden in her condo complex, for example). That said, she has some neck/back problems, so probably won’t be doing a lot of (say) shoveling the stables. She also cannot ride herself.
- She grew up caretaking for horses and owned her own for about 15 years, so has lots of experience.
- She lives in South County. While she drives, it’s best she not travel long distances (she’s not great with the highway). Some family members could give her rides further out if she had a regular schedule, though it’d require some planning and coordination.

For purposes of this thread, I’m just looking for tips for people she might contact or community organizations who could use some help. Even if it’s just coming out to brush some manes and do some feeding 1-3 times a week, it’d be wonderful for her.

You can also DM me suggestions. Thank you, all!

He caught a FELONY over Imos are you a fan of the square?

Hi y'all! This will be my first winter in an older building that doesn't have internal heat, and I am hesitant that the electric oil radiator my landlord provided is going to heat up my 550 square-foot studio apartment... It is barely keeping it a comfortable temperature inside with it being what is currently is, and we aren't even in the coldest temperatures! That's what I get for being a cold sleeper...

I also have a space heater for backup, but I hope to limit the usage since it takes up more power.

For those in older houses/buildings that wasn't fashioned with heat, what do you do for heat that doesn't rack up an electric bill? My unit is fully electric so I am being mindful of the Ameren bill. lol

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
xox, Sidney

I got this robe type thing at a silent auction at Perennial like 8 years ago. I absolutely love it but it's starting to tear at the neck. I would love to buy a new one and see if I can get this one repaired. It's handmade and has hand stitching all over it. I know it was made by someone local but that's all I know, unfortunately. Anyone have any ideas on who made it?
