Have you tried a chiropractor? I highly recommend it. Helped my youngest with his constant ear infections.

That's LOL funny right there! My boss lives in MN and had to fly down here Thursday for a client meeting. He said it looked like he was flying into the Great White North!

There are still a ton of flights being canceled; the roads may end up being the least of his problem.

Simple, they ran into an invisible (cloaked) UFO.

Past Schedule? Is that the new "politically correct" term for delayed?

How frustrating! The same thing happened to us on my son's birthday last year. My grandmother had mailed him a card with a check in November...we got the card in February. It had been slit open with something sharp and then stapled closed! Thankfully the check was still in it. Guess they figured they couldn't cash it. Hopefully Amex can help your mom.

What a heartwarming story! It was very nice of you to insist the boy accept the $20. To the OP, glad you got your phone back!

Thank goodness there are honest people out there, right? Apparently we came across two of them. Even while I was there, I kept envisioning all the horror stories I'd heard - like the ones above. I knew intellectually that I needed to stay and wait for the police, but when her insurance said she didn't have to wait it threw me for a loop. I did ask them about her possibly getting a ticket for leaving...their response was, "From our perspective, she doesn't have to stay. We don't know the law."

Thank you! I called Precinct 1 earlier today and the woman who answered said exactly the same thing, except that she said I could get the form from any of the offices. I didn't make it by there today so I'm glad to know I can get the form online. She said I submit it to my insurance company...did I understand that right? (I haven't checked the link yet to see if there are instructions.)

Thanks mei lan! I'm sorry for the loss of your father, and especially the circumstances. Even if it's been a while, I'm sure you miss him.

Shoot, I had my digital camera with me (because of my son's Christmas pageant) and still didn't think to use it while we were in the road. A quick snap before we pulled into the parking lot would have prevented a lot of my worry. I had everything I needed yesterday....except my brain!

Prayers and thoughts for the family at this difficult time.
