Good job, Gud.
Natter Five-O: Book 'Em, Danno.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Not that I actually own any stock, but there was a huge drop today in the markets.
Well done, Gud! Finances can be most stressful. (huge understatement)
There is still a lot more credit card debt than I would like (I like zero), but at least all of it is at 0% interest.
Yay Gud! What a great feeling that must be.
Yay, Gud! It's great when you can actually make a bill go away.

Grrr. No matter how big the fine, the trees, still gone.
Mr. T did the same clear-cutting at his Lake Forest (IL) home a few years back, but they didn't have an ordinance against cutting down trees that were on your own property, so he just got a lot of flak from the press and neighbors, but no fines.
City of Atlanta and DeKalb County both have pretty strict tree ordinances. You have to get a permit to cut down a tree if it's healthy and above a specific size.
I know in Weston, MA, there is a city ordinance that you have to have your house screened from the road by trees. Have to. OTOH, you can have whatever kind of house you want, which is why there are gigantic, ugly castles in Weston, MA. You just have to squint really hard through the trees to see them as you drive by. Or, recently, look over the treetops and see the castle spires.
