Find out if your neighborhood has a community council or what the governing body over your neighborhood affairs is. Go to a meeting and ask what can be done. Some are more effective than others, but usually people there know the local codes and something about dealing with problem properties...

If he was going to sue, why not sue Google?

OMG, getting so irritated with our bank. There is this woman at the branch that's right up the street. (In addition to the business, both the owner and I have our personal accounts with this bank as well). Well, this woman that works at the branch was just hell bound and determined to do a...

Those are good articles, Betty, thanks.

@hrforme: What changed is that we are still grandfathered, and originally we were told we were getting a 39% increase, which would have been out of the question. Through a lot of tricks, including changing dental carriers and some hard negotiating, our agent got it down to 12% overall and we...

When we were looking at our health insurance increase this year, one option our agent touched on was self funding. I've never really paid much attention to self-funding as I work for a company with 12 employees and I thought it could only work for a large employer, but apparently that is...

I'm thoroughly entitled to beat my DH over the head if his Valentine's Day gift to me was to make me sit panicking when he was over two hours late in a pouring snow storm, because he decided he just couldn't cancel his plan to go get a new cell phone despite the weather, right?

My lab mix loves snow too, but the last storm we got a thick layer of snow followed by ice. You can pretty much walk on it without sinking. She didn't love that so much when she went out to play and went splat.

Don't get me started, Elle. I live in Cincinnati, and the Bengals and their owner especially, treat the taxpayers of this county as their own personal piggy bank and show nothing but contempt for the city that bears their name. We have the most one sided lease agreement in the NFL, and the...

Very sorry for your loss, Betty.

I kind of liked the ones with pictures from OJ's car chase and "the last time a Bronco had a run"

Loving being the messenger for the new dental insurance. They won't enroll the owner's kid without proof of student status. I told him I need his class schedule. First owner gives me his credit card bill with the payment to the university. I knew that wouldn't fly. Next he gives me the...

MINUS 12 on the thermometer this morning. I win...I guess?

The cash register tells you how much change, but recently at a KFC the cashier punched in $20 when I was still digging change out of my pocket. I had the correct change and handed it to her so I was now owed an even $5 or whatever. She was COMPLETELY lost by this concept and grabbed a...

Thermometer read MINUS EIGHT this morning.

I work for a small HVAC wholesaler/distributorship. I'm the Office Manager/Accountant. I remember the time two of our three A/C units failed at the same time. My boss comes in my office hollering about he just doesn't understand how they could both go out at the same time and looking at me...

The geniuses that wired our building put about 4 offices AND the kitchen/break area on one circuit. Our space heaters would be fine until lunch time when someone used the microwave and then it would blow the breaker every time.

Yep, I'd send it in an email read receipt. If your husband is still with the same employer, txls, you've told us how they've tried to screw him before.

Thanks everyone, for your prayers and wishes.

Bad news means this could very well be my father in law's last Thanksgiving so we are making it the best we can.
