Yes, and one should not have to ask someone to hold the line while a plane takes off/ lands. One should not have to spend the extra money for a DVR for this or any other noise. ^^Bolded As far as the smaller aircraft, I guess it's a non-issue as long as they aren't showing off, and coming in too low. Tree limbs can do major damage.

Apparently it's not near anyone's house who is for this.

We are praying for her, and her family.

Dude you clearly have never lived near any airport of any size. You do know that when aircraft comes in for a landing it has to come in low going directly over houses even before the landing strip is in site. While I will admit it is kinda cool to see the passengers in the plan on approach, and to watch the landing gear come down, it is EXTREMELY LOUD. The most common phrases used in my house when we were growing up were "hold on there's a plane landing/taking off," "Great I missed whatever __________ was saying on TV." "One of these days the windows are going to rattle right out of the w

I got my times mixed up. I so wish I had been there.

Maybe golden the more I think about it. She is very cute. Were you able to place her yet? If not maybe reach out to one of the rescues.

^^^ This. Y'all need to understand, before I get on any bandwagon I want to know what I'm backing. I do (as most people I know) support the teachers IN GENERAL.

OK, now I see what your saying. Now I understand that the OP is upset at having to have one company instead of three, and 3 plans instead of 9. WOW even in multimillion dollar companies I don't think that is how they do their healthcare plans. I'm sorry but it makes sense that the state paying one company instead of THREE for the same service would, (and it should've been that way all along) save the tax payers money. Seems to me that it is no different then the private sector with this. Now if you want to gripe about the forced days off I get that.

OK, so you DO have choices. Same as everyone else. Maybe the names have changed, but it sounds like the same deal everyone else has. It's just that your employer chose to go with a company that offered them the best group rate over What their competition would charge. Not seeing a "choice" issue. Unless y'all got to chose between BCBS, and United Healthcare, (two separate companies) and then you get to chose from the plans they offer. As far as going into the exchange, As I understood the whole Obamacare deal, that the way it's supposed to work. IDK.

She looks like she is a mix of American Eskimo dog, and ? ? ? She sure is a cutie. I hope she might have a home.

He can play up to 14 as long as he is not 15 before 4/1. New hope still has teams in your sons age group. I think some of the other parks will have some as well. Being in 6th grade he is, what 11/12? Yes, the middle schools have their tryouts in the fall, for the next spring season.

Or............ could they be reltives you don't know about? No, really. I was working at Denny's in WPB (many moons ago) and one of my customers asked if I had a sister in Orlando. At the time I only knew of one sister, and she doesn't look like me. Anyway I stated no, to which they said well they say every one has someone who looks like them. Of course I just brushed it off. Fast forward about 20yrs. My sister (the one I knew about) track down our biological mom. Come to find out she had 2 more kids after us, and they were living in Orlando when the Denny's comment was made. The daught

Just tell them that yep you know them. If they ask if you know how to contact them, say no, but they could always call the county jail. My stepson, and my husband have the same name, and birth date. One is Jr. and the other is Sr. and we live in different states. The last time we got a call for Jr. I clarified that they were looking for Jr. then told them to check the local jail house in the state he lives in. Haven't had any more calls since.

Thanks for answering my question. So, basically like many other people the teacher have one company to work with. Unlike many others this one company is only offering one plan. With that being the case, can the teachers not go, and find their own HC companies to work with? Or are the teachers forced to take what the state offers? Does the state automatically take out for premiums? Does the state pay for the employees insurance at 100%?

Made ya feel old, did she?

:raisehand: I keep mine home. More because how can he learn if he feels like crap. As far as the "real world" you gotta admit that a lot of the teachers act like they are falling on the perviable (sp) sword to do their job. Personally I don't think teachers should supply all the stuff they do. I also think that if you chose to spend your own money, therefore enabling the very behavior that teachers bitch about. You shouldn't be bitching about having to pay out more for your healthcare. You don't spend money on others to the determent of your own family. There is a reason that the st

That's what we were paying about 9 years ago.

The one behind as Palmas is nice enough. My sister stayed there in October. She said she would stay there again. They also have an indoor pool, and of course the breakfast buffet deal. If anyone in your family has a military ID they also give a military discount.

Heck you could have set up a trip to NC, pretend that she was an illegal, and she didn't have any documents. She would have walked out with a DL in no time.

Most of us are.

I was a tree that fell this morning. We needed to go that way about 10:00AM, and the road was blocked. We were on our way home about 6:45 tonight, and the road was still closed. Blunt Trauma I wished I had known that I could cut through Country club, and come out that way.

Thanks.

How many of those that you ask, even know about this? How many have that look that says "what __________?" my point being how many of our local residents have any idea about the airport, or convention center issues?

Oh....... so it this more then 5 or 6 people in opposition? Say it ain't so.
