Zach6668 513 Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Right, but the tag says "hand wash only", so I don't (think I) want dry cleaning, right? I'm just curious if a dry cleaning/laundry place would do hand wash only? Link to post Share on other sites
iBeaver 409 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Weird. I've never really looked. Liz just takes them in. Get a mesh lingerie bag and wash it in the washer cold/gentle and pull it out immediately when it's done and dry flat. Use woolite. Link to post Share on other sites

Get a mesh lingerie bag and wash it in the washer cold/gentle and pull it out immediately when it's done and dry flat. Use woolite. I read those same instructions online, but I don't have a laundry machine of my own, and it would be kind of difficult to do in a laundromat. This is why this is complicated. I send the rest of my laundry out for wash/dry/fold, but I wouldn't really trust them with non-standard stuff. Any time I have delicates or dressier stuff, I tend to bring it to a different place. Both places are within like a 7 minute walk. I'll just take a stroll over there tomorrow. Supposed to be +6 degrees! Link to post Share on other sites

MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Raptors get Ibaka for T.Ross+1st. Personally, I think its a great deal, but I've never been that high on TRoss. And if they manage to resign him, its huge for the franchise IMO. Bob, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on the Raptors picking up Ibaka. Link to post Share on other sites

Ibaka is probably quite a bit older than listed and his game has gone downhill. Patrick Patterson is a better player. Link to post Share on other sites

Patrick Patterson is a better player. crap, not what I wanted to read! dont know much about him other than watching him play with OKC in the playoffs, and was always really impressed with his game. I thought it would fit in well with Lowry+Demar. Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it would fit in well with Lowry+Demar. he should fit in very well Patrick Patterson is a really good player. His injury is why they have sucked recently. Before the trade he was the 2nd most irreplacable player behind Lowry. Derozan is the 2nd best player but they can replace his minutes with Norm, but the Raptors were really thin up front and couldn't fade a Pat Pat injury. Link to post Share on other sites

My first live NBA game since the Vancouver Grizzlies were a thing. I had courtside seats once. Took Otto. Of course we got to the game really early. We stuck out since we don't look like we belong (because we don't). During the shoot around before the game one of the balls came towards us. Otto (must have been 8-9 years old) went to get the ball but it went through his hands and under the chair. Chris Duhon went to retrieve the ball and threw it to Otto and motion to him to pass it back to him. After Otto did that we giggle like little boys. Link to post Share on other sites

gruven 530 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Jeez! I wonder if Chris is there?! just back from 8+ hours there. Very intense fire. We had three mayday calls (trapped firefighter) in the first hour. Just defensive now. Link to post Share on other sites

I know you guys are trained to know when that stuff is going to happen, but firefighters were walking across it like moments before. I'm hoping everyone made it out alright? Minor injuries only?

We were lucky today.... I can't even imagine. Really great work by everyone there. Seems like it was contained to just that building. You saved a lot of homes and offices that it could have jumped to. I'm guessing that's goal number one after you know there's nobody in the building. When I got evacuated at around 3:30, there were still flames shooting out periodically. That's, what, 6 hours after it started? Would they still be dumping water on the building right now? Making sure all the embers, etc are out? Link to post Share on other sites

Making sure all the embers, etc are out? theres still heavy fire. Trapped heat and big fuel loads made this a tough fire. We brought in a demolition excavator to tear open the roof so we could get at the fire better. This one will still be burning when the sun comes up. But we did some great work not to lose the whole block, especially with how tight the exposure buildings are. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
