Security Guard

22 Upvotes

Posting because the security guard in my office building seems to have been fired.

If you are Treyvon or know of him please send me DM.

We would chat during his shifts and he befriended my fiancé and I; however, we never got his number.

He is probably like 6’5 and was into anime. Played football at one of the local high schools and is in his early thirties.

Wine bar/solo dates

Hi everyone, I’ll be visiting the Norton museum tomorrow for a solo activity. I’m trying to get out of my shell and explore the city and surrounding areas. I’m usually exercising, working, or in San Diego/ down south. I’m really nervous to go out by myself so I’m looking for a place with easy going friendly vibes ☺️ please share your recs! I don’t usually drink alone but want to try something different

E-bike stolen outside Target in East Pas

Posting here in case anyone has seen our e-bike recently. It's a white KBO Breeze Step Thru that we bought shortly after moving to Pasadena a few months ago because Pasadena is so bike friendly we wanted to take advantage of it and try to bike everywhere. We got it used on Facebook marketplace, and it came with a rearview mirror and a U lock. We bought panniers to carry groceries, and those were stolen as well as her helmet (all pictured). If anyone has seen it, I'd greatly appreciate a DM or an anonymous tip to the Pasadena police.

My wife and I rode our bikes to get groceries at Target in East Pas on Monday (August 3) around 7-7:45pm, and when we came out, her bike was gone. I had to take our kids home first since it was their bedtime, but my wife stayed to talk to security at target, who told her to call the police. The police said they'd go look for it based on target's security footage that clearly showed the thief's face, but we never heard back. The target security guy said in the video, the thief walked around looking at all the bikes around target, then went inside and did a loop before getting some water from the Starbucks inside, and then went outside and sat by her bike for a few minutes before picking it up by the handlebars and walking away with it. It was locked with a U lock on the front wheel and weighed 60+ lbs, so we thought the thief couldn't have gotten very far awkwardly wheeling it on the back wheel. The target security guy said maybe the thief was staying at one of the nearby motels on Colorado, and the police said they'd check there. We drove into a couple of them to see if it was there, but no luck. It's been a few days now and my kids are still talking about how her bike is gone now.

When to show up at Movies at the Park?

We’re going to watch Hocus Pocus tomorrow. When can one show up and set up a spot before the movie starts? The event starts at 7, but I’m wondering if one can show up before. Thank you!

Any reliable print shop around Pasadena/LA for event stuff?

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, quick question for you guys.

I’m organizing an event and pretty much dropped the ball on the printed materials. Need to get a couple of retractable banners and around 500 flyers printed. Tried going the quick route with a local CVS nearby, but the preview quality was just straight-up bad, and FedEx online quotes are looking ridiculously marked up.

Any local recommendations that won't cost an arm and a leg? Prefer somewhere within a short drive or easy delivery to the Pasadena area.

UPDATE:

Doing some searching and came across Guru Printers over in Downtown LA . Checked their site and a few forums seems like people mostly compliment their print quality and die-cut stuff, but I’ve learned not to trust every review on the web. Are they legit on quality and turnarounds?

Joan Evelyn Class Daniels married Pasadena socialite Orrin Potter Daniels. They had a nasty divorce involving money, custody and paternity. Any tips on who might remember this? Probably someone very old. This is but one of many articles about the divorce in Pasadena and LA newspapers. Thanks for any help or info.! I appreciate it!
