    I'm at Polaris also. It really depends where you're coming from for how bad traffic is. Traffic going straight up 71 is fine for me but the traffic from 270 to 71 is usually terrible.

     

    Arriving at 8AM and I never worry about parking. I get my same end spot every day. If you come in later than 8:30 you're gonna be hiking in though.

     

    I'm pretty happy there but it's such a big place it's really what you make of it. It can be very impersonal because of its size.

  8. Any International travel tips?

    How long are you there and do you need to stay in London the whole trip?

     

    Must do things in London:

    -Tower of London and London Bridge (right next to each other)

    -Walk around Big Ben and Parliment

    -Walk from Trafalgar Square to the Royal Palace

    -British Museum

  9. Vacuum cleaners...Recommendations?

    I've got a Shark Navigator...at first I got it as a "secondary" vacuum as it had hose attachments and my Oreck XL didn't. After the fire, I just pocketed the insurance payment for a new Oreck. The Navigator has actually been very good...if anything I find vacuuming a 2000sqft house makes me have to dump the bin a couple of times...

     

    What are people's thoughts on a refurbished vacuum? $500 Dyson for $279 kinda deal...

     

    I bought a refurbished Dyson off Woot.com 3 or so years ago and it's been great since. No issues and the fiancé is very happy with it.

  16. Any Roadbike guys on here?

    Performance is a good place to start and fitted. You'll get the best prices there versus buying new at a small shop because they are a volume dealer. That said, you're budget is going to get you the low end bikes. I would look used with your budget.

     

    I just bought a mtb this year and while it is a lot of fun, there is also a lot of time used getting to and from the trail. Road biking is much more readily available.

    Doesn't appear that it will total. Esp, since your air bags did not deploy. Yes, Deff take to a really good repair facility. I took mine to Achbach when some ass bag smacked it in a parking lot at a bar... ( I did the right thing that night, and left it, and I still got FUCT..) They did an awesome job!!!!

     

    I have my car at Achbach now. I'm a repeat customer because they do great work.

     

    Sorry to see the accident but as long as everybody is ok is most important. Even if she was doing something that dumb. Stuff can be replaced. Sucks though and is a PITA.
