according to an e-mail I just got from Ward 6 Alderman Rebekah Gewirtz. So there is no need to attend tonight's Licensing Commission hearing unless you want to support or oppose one of the other applicants (such as Aguacate Verde).

Boxes

[axedmoon.livejournal.com]

Howdy, I am in need of some boxes. After many failed attempts to nab some from craigslist, I figured I'd just resort my local community for advice before I shell out dough to U-haul (albeit, they are not that pricey - would be cool to get them from a friend, neighbor, or local establishment). Besides wholesalers and liquor store folk, where do you suggest that I can procure some sturdy boxes in the area? :)

I tried the moving tag but it seemed to only bring up apartment-related searching.
Sorry if this is a duplicate post of any kind.

oral surgeons?

[mindstalk.livejournal.com]

Dentist recommended I get an impacted wisdom tooth extracted; anyone have oral surgeons in the area they have confidence in? Especially thought not necessarily ones who take Commonwealth Care? KoolSmiles in Porter is one, but yelp had 3 out of 4 reviews as terrible, if they're even still open. Other DSLJ tags or review websites welcome too.

Prescription cat food

[jesseh.livejournal.com]

Hi --

I have most of an 8.5 lb. bag of Hill's Prescription I/D dry cat food, and several unopened packages of chicken flavored Pill Pockets that I no longer need. If anyone can use it, I'd love to sell the dry food for $20, and the Pill Pockets for $3 a pack.

Alternatively, if there's a rescue or similar that could use them, I would donate them. But I don't drive, so transportation could be a problem. I actually live in Harvard Square, so could deliver anywhere in the general Davis - Central Red Line area.

Thanks!
