| Dutch food |
[Dec. 21st, 2009|09:53 am] |
Hi All,
After searching through the tags with international food I could not find my answer unfortunately so I hope maybe someone can help me out.
I've moved from the Netherlands to Austin about 2 months ago and I really miss some products. I already checked at whole foods and at least I could find decent bread there, which made me really happy. A lot of the products I can buy from online shops but they are insane expensive and I know the H.E.B. used to sell dutch food in the foreign isle but today i heard they took it out.
Does any of you know where I could possible find dutch food?
Thanks in Advance.

| Cirque Du Soleil tickets - trade? |
[Dec. 20th, 2009|12:33 am] |
I have 4 tickets to the Cirque Du Soleil 'Alegria' show (presented by Ishares) at the Cedar Park Center for Wednesday, February 17th at 7:30pm. They are in Section 101, Row M, seats 13-16.
I'd like to trade them for 2 Trans-Siberian Orchestra tickets for their show on December 28th - either time is fine. I'd also be interested in making an offer on 2 cheap Trans-Siberian Orchestra tickets, if you know of any. Some of the prices out there are outrageous.
Thanks.

| Where to find scrubs? |
[Dec. 19th, 2009|05:57 pm] |
I'm hoping to be able to find 2-3 sets of scrubs in the next week or so...does anybody know a good uniform or medical supply store where I can find them for cheap without compromising on quality? I'm on the petite side, if that helps any.
Thanks! |

| 2nd Time Warner Post Today... |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|10:39 pm] |
...but a totally different issue.
Apparently TWC's contract with Fox in Austin and a few other cities is going to expire (kind of like KXAN a while back). I'm sure they'll end up working something out (meaning rates will go up), but starting Jan 1st, we may have no Fox (except through digi-rabbit ears.
Here is a link to the Keep Fox On Website. |

| Menorah at the Capital? |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|11:01 pm] |
I couldn't help but notice that a giant Menorah was lit at the capital a few days ago when I was down there. Is it actually on state property? Who is sponsoring this?
It strikes me as a separation of church and state issue - I mean, people get into a tizzy when there are nativity scenes on state grounds, but I haven't heard a peep about the 10 foot menorah. |

| Time Warner rate hike? |
[Dec. 18th, 2009|02:35 pm] |
| [ | music |
| | In Strict Confidence - Cryogenix | ] | My Time Warner bill for my Inter- net service this month is higher by about 4 dollars than it has been for the last several years.
I received no notice prior to this that my monthly fee was being raised. When I call Cus- tomer Service, the helpful and friendly automated voice system disconnects me as soon as I try to reach a live operator.
Anyone have any insight about any of this? |

| Soup kitchen for Christmas? |
[Dec. 17th, 2009|09:13 pm] |
Since I'll be in Austin far away from family for the holidays this year, I wanted to volunteer at a soup kitchen or something similar for Christmas Day. I sent an email to Angel House and got no response, anyone know of a place that needs an extra pair of hands and a willing heart this year?
South or Central preferred, only because of the limited bus schedule on Christmas. |

| Large Rope Hammock with Stand |
[Dec. 17th, 2009|11:13 am] |
Location: Mopac/Duval 78759
I bought a large rope hammock a few months ago, but I don't have a yard, so it just sits on my balcony (no privacy or view), and I have only used it maybe 3 times total because of this. There is no damage to the hammock, and there are no stains. I don't have the exact dimensions because I did not keep the box, but it is very sturdy, and 2 people could easily fit in it. I'm posting a few pictures of the hammock on my balcony. I get home from work around 7:30pm Monday-Thursday, and around 6:30pm on Fridays. I'm really hoping to sell this as soon as possible so I can scrounge up some extra Christmas money. Pick up only. $50 or best offer.

Thank you! |
