Thank you mei lan. I like you too, and have since I began seeing the things you've posted. I could tell you were a caring and kind person.

Maybe they need like minded people, who have similar interests and health situations, as themselves. For example, someone who enjoys more quite things, like sewing, crafting, watching movies, (for whatever reasons, health, nerves, financial, etc) isn't going to enjoy going out socializing with a bunch of loud, drinking, partying types. And someone who has physical health issues, probably isn't going to want to go out water skiing or marathon running. I think maybe, it's a matter of matching the right "groups" of people together. I just saw, and think it's a great idea, where someone posted

While reading this thread, I just had an idea, why couldn't the people, that are lonely, or live alone, start a little support group? Maybe call it, Lonely No More, or Lean On Me, or something. They could plan on getting together, once a week, or so, to watch movies, garden together, eat out together, grill out, have fun and laugh together, etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJZ3bcPr-Ds

This is much more interesting, exciting, and entertaining than most of the junk that Hollywood puts out, (to me anyway).

I love this kind of stuff!

Hopefully these folks can be directed to, and helped by the right agency/s, so he doesn't have to grow up in this situation.

And yet another good reason to know what kind of car. This way you can get on Pcom and see if others are experiencing the same situation. Was this a one time need? Maybe she left her house and forgot her purse or something and needed a little cash in the meantime, or fell on some temporary hard times? Or maybe she does this all over town, on a regular basis? And if she is doing this on a regular basis, all over town, then maybe she needs to be directed to the right agency/s that could help her get some financial assistance? This way she could get some "real" help and wouldn't have to put

Well if they are sitting there in a brand new Mercedes, or something similar, I am going to immediately suspect this could be a scam. I have the right to judge any situation where someone is asking me for my money. I am far from wealthy, and I need my money for my own needs, however, if I think it is a legitimate need, I will certainly try to help out.

My first thought on this is.......what kind of car was the mother sitting in? Was it a newer car or an old car? I would also want to know a little more info, before making a final judgement on the situation.

I agree, you would think they would give you an option of picking up your items, if they didn't sell.

This is comforting to know.

Adding my prayers for all those involved in these wrecks today.

Adding my prayers for your son and family.

WOW! He is good! I love his art! He seems to really have a talent for this!

Is there a website we can go to, to see all the various pit bull attacks and killings? I know of a little boy who was attacked and badly injured by one of their neighbors pit bulls, a few years ago. And, I hear about these all the time. Sometimes in the news, through web chat sites, on the court shows, etc. I think there should be a central website where this could be reported and we could get a real idea of just how many there really are. It always seems like pit bull owners are going on and on about how "sweet" their dogs are and they wouldn't hurt a fly. Why then do there seem to be s

For the most part I agree with you on this, however the key part of what you said for me is "unless it directly involves me and my family." That is when I am no longer willing to tolerate a neighbor's behavior, neglect, or actions. I have had neighbors that played loud music and let their grass grow up really high, etc. Those things didn't really bother me. (As long as they played their music during reasonable hours and didn't play their music all night long, and keep me from being able to sleep) I would't consider 1 or 2 old vehicles to be a real problem, but the OP was

Chances are......he won't want to title 10 old junk vehicles. Chances are he will likely clean some of them up. And what about the notion that your neighbor gets to decide what is right and proper for his neighbors? And, as far as me......I don't have 10 old, old, junk, vehicles in my yard, creating health and property value issues. I doubt I am the PERFECT neighbor, but I try to take others feelings in consideration. And having something in your yard that simply "annoys" someone and having something in your yard that can have an impact on another's health and or home, are two very differ

I personally don't care what people do or have on their own property, unless it imposes on others rights. And, I don't think that "one mans trash, should be a whole bunch of neighbors health concerns" either. Why should the whole neighborhood be impacted because of one man? Why should a whole bunch of neighbors be forced to make a change? I think that the "one man" should be forced to make that change. Maybe that trashy neighbor should just move and buy a bunch of land to keep all his garbage on, that way it only impacts his health, and property value.

LOL!! :lol:

Well, I think if someone wants to park 10 old junk vehicles in their own back yard, then they should be required to have a tall privacy fence installed,(at their expense), so it won't negatively impact their neighbors. When a neighbor has a bunch of ugly, old, junk, vehicles sitting around, it not only can be an eyesore for the neighbors, it can negatively impact a neighbors property value. It can also be a good place for snakes, mosquitoes, insects and all sorts of rodents to nest, especially if they are unable to properly maintain their yard, because of the vehicles. At this point it becom

I hate the self check outs too!

Headed for the mountains, maybe? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYRZgOhYNAY

So.....she should just relax and not worry about this, right? After all he is just a crazy old man with a gun. Nothing to see here....just move along. I think the whole point of putting up the cameras is so she can "prove" that he is shooting! Once on camera then a lot of people can "honestly" say they saw him shooting. And by the way......then, what would your husband do if this was your family that was concerned about this man? What if he was shooting in the air.....and a bullet ricocheted, say off a tree or tree branch, and hit a kid, not in his yard? Is this reckless con

So, they should just not complain, until an accident "actually" happens and perhaps a child is injured or killed, and at THAT point we can all assume that he wasn't taking the "proper safety precautions", and he can be carted off to jail and we will KNOW for sure that he was a careless idiot with a gun. In the meantime, the children should just be content to play inside, or run for their lives, as fast as the can inside to safety if he starts one of his shooting sessions.

And unless they have the power to read minds, how are they ever to know, when he will randomly decide to start one of his shooting session? What if they decide to grill out some hamburgers and he decides to start one of his shooting sessions? Whose rights take priority? The right of some old man to shoot on his property, or the right of a family to enjoy a pretty day and grill out? Should they have to stop something like an outside birthday party, in order to remain safe from a potential stray bullet, just so this guy can exercise his right to shoot up in the air?
