    They moved our entire giant neighborhood mailbox(s) back from the road about 20 feet, and our key doesn't work.

    They're going to widen that road.

    Now another waste of $5 gallon gas, and moar miles on the Chamaro because my mail is being held hostage.

    I think we're entitled to compensation for this wilful and aggresious act.

    Well, I definitely qualify on the over 30...by a whole lot...LOL
    I doubt that 2250 would even make the insane weekly lease payment on an overpriced new truck.

    When I announced I was selling my truck, the company I was leased on with offered me a lease purchase on a brand new truck...I had to tell him that If found his offer to be utterly frightening in the current market...I was selling out to get away from increasing costs and declining revenue.
    I don't know for sure who is telling these companies that I might be interested in a lease purchase, but I can say it loud and clear...there's no way!!!

    Goodness, I’ll be glad when these dentist visits come to a close.

    This extremely hot woman in late 40s early 50s who was… well built weighing i’d say 130-135, cleaned my teeth and drilled thingy and sliced gum line at every tooth, while rubbing all over your face and head, wearing a Rolling Stones Tshirt.
    If it wasn’t for the drilling and then picking with that lil metal rod it could’ve been enjoyable.

     
    dwells40, austinmike, Feedman and 7 others Thank this.

    Well we had to put our beloved german shephard down over the weekend. She had developed an infection in her mouth and had some teeth pulled. After the teeth got pulled, the infection which turned out to be cancer, spread to her entire body and we decided to not let her suffer much longer as she was already doing so... We got her from the shelter about 4 years ago, she came to us with 3 legs and very skinny. This was our 3rd pup from the shelter that we saved and can say we gave them all a better life then when they started. I can say it never gets easier. She was a good loyal pup. Rip gracie

    I’ve got one at home with cancer, big cyst on rear leg from knee joint to almost touches floor, our vet didn’t want to touch it years ago when it was small, plus she’s got a swollen spot left side rear bottom jaw, she’s about 13-14 years old, so far not in pain, but she stays in unless to go use bathroom and back in out of the heat.
    It never gets easier,I’ve a notebook on my desk with all the dates/names written when all my pets have died dating back to when I was a kid.

    that is sad remember you posted a pic of her a while back and I referred to her as lucky from a old story of a three legged dog. The kindness of her eyes just melted your heart. Again very sorry for your loss.

    Box of shame? Need clarification on this. Seems every one has a different opinion on that. As an open deck operation, anything with walls and or a roof could meet that definition.
