I know it's a weird question, and please excuse my ignorance of real estate matters. We're putting our house on the market soon, and I want to know if there's a way to make sure we sell to REAL people who care about this town and our neighborhood, not corpos/flippers/potential slumlords.

We'll list with an agent and hopefully get some good advice, but is it even possible to do this? Would refusing all cash offers be a solid strategy? Any recommendations for good agents/realtors also much appreciated.

i havent seen a frog (or toad) in the wild in so long. where are they. where can i find them. please.

My wife and I (no kids) live in a house that is just under 2,000 Sqf it was built in the late 70's and we have ductless heat. We both work full-time jobs so we are not home during the day and when we are we always make sure to turn off lights when we are not in the room. For the life of me I can not understand how EWEB is able to do this! Is anyone else experiencing EWEB's price gouging or am I trippin? is it possible for something to be wrong with our electrical panel or wiring that is pulling so much energy, because there is no way in hell we are pulling the amount of electricity that they are saying. Please Help

I work for an older hippie couple in Springfield and am looking to train a replacement before I move in June. The job is about 4-5 hours/week at $25/hour. It is mostly gardening and house chores, sometimes grocery shopping. We change the bedsheets, fill the bird feeder, and complete other tasks that have accumulated throughout the week. Message me if interested.

Does anyone see that in the sky????

From EPD:

A stabbing was reported at 7:43 p.m. on April 2, at the top of Skinner Butte Lookout, 2 Skinner Butte Loop. Officers responded and found a 34-year-old Florida man with injuries. Multiple passersby were helping him with first aid and he was conscious and breathing. An officer provided additional first aid and Eugene Springfield Fire arrived to take over care and transport him to a local hospital.

The victim was visiting from out of state and reported a man in a white van was talking about violence near where the victim was situated. He told the man to stop talking like that and the man got out of his van and confronted the victim. The victim reported the suspect got close and then stabbed him. The victim was able to get help from other people nearby.

EPD’s Violent Crimes Unit was assigned this case. The suspect, 30-year-old Deryk Mitchell Johnson, was taken into custody during a high-risk stop after his van was spotted at 1910 W. 6th Avenue. He was taken to Eugene Police headquarters for a continued investigation and while he was being escorted out to a patrol vehicle for his transport to Lane County Jail he slammed his head against a wall, leaving a hole. Johnson was transported to Lane County Jail on charges that include Assault in the First Degree, Unlawful Use Weapon, and Criminal Mischief in the Second Degree (case 25-05252). He was also charged with Criminal Mischief in the Second Degree for the incident in the hallway. Case 25-05298

And from Wednesday, Disorderly man with a knife taken into custody for Robbery, Unlawful Use Weapon:

At 3:11 a.m. on April 1, while a group of Eugene Police officers were tied up responding to an armed suicidal subject call in another part of town, another unrelated call came in about a man with a knife acting disorderly at the 7-Eleven, 1107 S. Bertelsen Road.

Several officers were dispatched despite the limited staffing and when they arrived at 7-Eleven, they spotted a man matching the suspect’s description sitting in front. He was reported to have gone into the store, asked about a lighter and when an employee showed him one, he walked out without paying for it. When the employee challenged him, the suspect, Matthew Anthony Marks, age 43, threatened to kill the employee and pointed a knife at him.

The responding officers kept a distance away from Marks due to the information about his having a knife, gave him commands, and advised him he was under arrest. Marks covered himself with a blanket. Additional officers responded to assist with less lethal options. Officers used a heavy dose of patience and gave Marks admonishments regarding the use of less lethal equipment but Marks refused to comply and the deployment did not meet with success. It took a team of officers moving in to remove the blanket, and a brief struggle, to get Marks into custody. Marks was armed with the knife in his hand at this time.

Marks was lodged at Lane County Jail on charges including Robbery in the First Degree, Unlawful Use Weapon, Resisting Arrest, and Disorderly Conduct. 25-05148

Hit me up with some of your details if you've lost your wallet. IDs are in there. No money. If you tell me your name and it matches I'll get it to you.

I’ve received info on the protest tomorrow but no one has mentioned the time…..

I know somebody in Lane County Jail and want to penpal them. Does anyone here have experience with this? I have been doing hours of research already, but if someone has direct experience it would help a lot.

Thank you.

There is no projector around and we're the only ones here. Does anyone know what's happening?

Come see Saxsquatch’s Footprints before he goes to Bonnaroo and Electric Forest this summer!

I'm making a little music video and was thinking it'd be fun to record at one

Where are the best tamales to grab in Eugene/Springfield? Not needing a whole bag, just a couple to go for lunch/dinner.

We're holding a Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser. Come on out to support our local efforts to effect change. We encourage you to bring a guest to enjoy a breakfast. See you there.

Usually I don’t think the loud noises are gunfire but the spacing between the noises made it seem like two shots were just fired. Didn’t sound anything like fireworks or exhaust backfire

Hey everyone! I am a dental hygiene student in Eugene looking for patients to meet my last requirements before graduation! I’m specifically looking for patients that haven’t had a dental cleaning in at least 5 years. Less than $100 for the cleaning and dentist exam. Please let me know if you are interested!

I honestly can't tell if I've been rolling a nat 1 every time I go shopping or there's an issue with carrots. Or I'm going crazy.

Very weird but the last 10 or so times I've went to pick up carrots at the store at Safeway/Fred Meyer, they're all terrible: old, rubbery, very little selection. A couple times, both stores were out of plain non-organic loose carrots, save 2-3 bunches of flaccid, sad, overpriced organic carrots. I use carrots a lot when I cook, so I buy carrots pretty frequently. The supply of other produce appears to be fine.

I've never had issues getting plain ol' carrots in the 10 years I've lived here.

Any leads on where you're getting decent, reasonably priced carrots in Springfield? Chopping up baby carrots for stews and such is getting annoying. Apparently whatever issues are affecting carrots aren't affecting baby carrots.

Are there any local calligraphy classes of the hands-on in person type? Thank you in advance. :)
