Wedding DJ

2009-07-14T13:58:52Z

Any recommendations on local wedding DJs? I'm in touch with a couple people but am having a hard time finding reviews of any of them. I didn't see anything about DJs in the memories section. Thanks in advance!

Anybody here good at winding coils?

Harry Potter tickets for opening the opening show.

2009-07-13T18:44:21Z

Hello all,

I recently in error purchased 2 tickets to harry potter for the Tuesday (late night) 12:01 showing of harry potter at the Beverly (I wanted to go to the savoy show). Since I ordered them online, the theater will not allow me to refund them or exchange them. I would like to sell them to anyone that wants to go for $15 total. I paid 20 but just want to get rid of them. I will deliver them to the campus area. No need to go and buy your tickets there or wait in line, I will bring them to your door.

jbabiarz at gmail if you are interested.

Thanks again chambana.

2009-07-12T08:07:46Z

Hello all. I'm moving out of my current apt. on August 15th and am not able to move into my new one until the 18th. Does anyone know of any storage facilities where you can pay by the day?

Vet Recommendations...

2009-07-11T16:11:42Z

Does any one know a good Vet or even a Human Society type place where I could take my cat? His one eye is swollen and I think he may have an eye infection or something. I'm a grad student, so money is tight, but I do want to have him seen.

Any help or suggestions would be great.

Thanks

Free Stuff 2: Electric Boogaloo

2009-07-11T02:48:02Z

My housemate and I are at it again. More free stuff going out on the lawn tomorrow! She moves Sunday and I move next week so it's do or die time at the Casa de J & A .

Last time 99% of the stuff we put out was carted away by happy folks, don't miss out!

This round includes: table and chairs, computer desk (bonus if you will haul it off the porch, the sucker is HEAVY)
More books, tapes (audio cassette and VHS), assorted housewares including dishes, brick-a-brack and chotchkies galore!

Come take a gander! Not too early though, we probably won't have stuff out until 9 or 10am and more stuff will likely come out as the day goes on and sorting and packing continue in ernest. A perfect after-Farmer's Market outing!

Selling: WRT54G + MN-700(ROUTER) + WIFI CARD (B) PCI - NO ANTENNTA

2009-07-09T05:58:57Z

Edit: I am also willing to install the Router+(Repeater) inside your home or business for an additional $15. All you would have to do is give me the cash, and within 45min-2hours you would have wireless setup within your entire quarters. ALSO: You must pay for the Wireless Cards your self! I am only providing the routers. The network cards each cost around $25-$50.

I am selling a WRT54G which costs around $45 on the internet and $60 In-stores for $20.
I am also selling a MN-700 Router 54Mbps for $20.
I also have a Linksys WMP11 Wireless B PCI Card for $10.

You can get all 3 together for $45. I'd recommend it. You can use one router as a repeater(Extend Wifi Range.) That's an excellent deal right there.

Retail this would cost:

WRT54G: $60
MN-700: $100-$120
WMP11: $30

Around $190-$210!

Please call me @ 217-649-3775 or email me at semiblocked@gmail.com for details.

Here are some photos of the actual products:
These are the products you will be receiving. They are a little bit different from if you bought the items retail. The only thing is that the MN-700 doesn't have the plastic fake-antenna sticking out. The antenna is internal and still works.

Shot in the dark...

2009-07-07T03:25:38Z

I know this probably isn't the best venue in which to make friends, but I still don't know a lot of people in the area and have nothing to do and all day to do it.

Anyone want to do something sometime? My hobbies include food and beer.

free doula services!

2009-06-30T22:16:56Z

this is probably kind of a long shot, but does anyone happen to know anyone who might be interested in volunteer labor support? i'm working on my doula certification with DONA international, and i'm looking anywhere and everywhere for clients! i completed my labor support course through the seattle midwifery school and i've been working closely with an experienced doula in the area - i observed and assisted a birth she attended in april, and i've been on call as her backup a few times since then. anyway, if you DO know anyone who might be interested, or if you're interested yourself, feel free to drop me a line at arielagray@gmail.com. thanks, everybody!

Wood siding/painting, and tree trimming

2009-06-29T17:22:43Z

Hi all,

Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with:

Mark's Home Repair (for replacing some siding and painting the house)
Handy Andy (ditto)
Gus Hatch (tree trimming)

(I asked about tree trimmers here two months ago, but I keep leaving messages and not getting calls back. Must be a busy time of year. No one mentioned Mr. Hatch then.)

Free Stuff!

2009-06-27T15:39:48Z

Hey! My housemate and I are moving and we have stuff to get rid of. We've done the garage sale thing and it s big pain in the butt, so, we're putting stuff our on out lawn, like a garage sale, but everything will be FREE. Come and take it away and its yours.

Come for a lovely drive (or walk we have small stuff too) on this cooler June day and take away our stuff.

Books, house hold goods, chairs, a grill, chotchkies and assorted random stuff. Come and get it!

If you do collage or are someone who uses old magazines for anything ask about the bin I have in the house. Many have had things cut out of them but there is still good stuff in there. Haul the whole thing away and I'll let you have the bin too!

T-Mobile Phone

2009-06-27T12:49:30Z

Does anyone have an old T-Mobile phone laying around they could sell me for fairly cheap? Doesn't have to be anything special, just needs to take my sim card. My phone decided to stop working last night and I am lacking the funds to replace it properly at the moment (I probably need to pay rent more than I need a new blackberry so I have to wait til my next paycheck) but I do need a phone. Thanks.

Insurance

2009-06-24T19:31:47Z

I'm moving to Champaign in September, and will need to transfer my car insurance over. Right now, I'm with State Farm, and like them just fine, but there are a ton of agents in that area, and I was wondering if anyone had any personal experience such that they would yay or nay any of them. Currently, we have a policy that includes 2 cars, 1 life, 1 rental, if that makes a difference.

If there are other companies that have wowed you so much that you think I should change agencies altogether, I'm willing to entertain that, as well.

Thanks in advance!

Or am I just lucky?

2009-06-24T04:20:07Z

Anyone else been running across a LOT more gnats lately? They seem to be everywhere the last week or so.

Good Internal Medicine Doctor?

2009-06-21T15:35:06Z

Can anyone recommend a good Internal Medicine Doctor? I'd also settle for General Practitioner or, if the person is really great, Family Medicine. I had a great Internal Medicine Doc in Chicago, and I'd like to find one down here. I'm open to doctors of both genders, but would have a slight preference towards male.

Thanks. If it makes a difference, my insurance is through Aetna.
