Anybody know what’s going into the old Urban Pets in the Rite Aid complex?

They’ve been painting it black and white on the exterior for a couple days and I’m wondering if it’s been rented or sold.

Web Series seeking help

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this on here, but my writing group and I just finished writing and developing the pilot script for our web series. We've never filmed anything before, so this will be our first time and we have no resources to get this production up and running. We need technical help (mostly camera work) and actors, so if you're interested in helping us out please fill out this Google Form and I will get back to you. And if you know anybody who could be a help please feel free to send them the Google Form. If you'd like to read the full pilot script and watch an animatic of the pilot, they're both linked on the Google Form

Terrible smell

Does anyone know why there has been a terrible burned rubber smell near the corner of Mission and Garfield? I can smell it on the south side of Mission not sure if it’s detectable on the north side. It’s in a very specific spot and hasn’t gone away for weeks. At first I thought it was road repair and the asphalt smelled but it still stinks.

Ways to get kids to school

Hello! I’m moving to the school district from the east coast and it doesn’t seem like there are school buses provided. What alternatives are there to get kids to school? I‘ve seen mention of Hop Skip Drive- has anyone used their services? (I’ll have a middle schooler but we’ll be about a 25 minute walk away.) Thanks so much in advance!

edit: many thanks to everyone who responded. it definitely helps me feel more comfortable with exploring the idea of kiddo walking or biking to school. I really appreciate that you took the time out to reply!

Spectrum outage in South Pas

Anyone hear why there’s been an all day Spectrum outage? We’ve been without cable/internet since 6am. The Spectrum site says there’s no update on repair time.
