We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Mostly lurking...

Awww...poor LAistas with the sad. I remember that feeling from when Emily left Boston last year. Brackets all around.

So, do we think there's a precedent for an insanity plea due to medicinal steroid usage? 'Cause I came this [] close to plucking out a woman's eye with my crochet hook today.

I swear, I'm not usually violent.

Sean, let's say tomorrow. We can find a little time for some Guitar Hero II as well. Also, hop on IM if you have a sec.

{{{LAistas}}} It's so hard when a friend moves far away. Much ~ma to all of you.

I put a call into my lawyer a little while ago. He wasn't there, but I mostly just want to see what advice he has. He's a family friend and won't charge me for the advice.

Good for you, sj. I'm not a lawyer, and all that, but it just seems like even if she could have not rented to you without giving a reason, since she did give a reason, and it's protected, you should have a case. Anyway, I hope that's what the lawyer says.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I'm very glad you have a friendly lawyer to advise you, sj. I want evil landlady to suffer or at least now that she is WRONG WRONG WRONG, but I don't want you to have to suffer to make any impact.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

sj, that situation is ridiculous. If the agent who took you to see the place is any kind of professional, I can't see why they'd continue doing business with that landlady. It would put them in danger of a lawsuit, for going along with her prejudices, and if they agree with her it cuts down on the number of people they can market to. Unless there's a personal relationship between the agent and the landlady, I can't understand any reputable company doing business with her.

I agree with you Toddson, but I'm not going to push that issue until he gets us an apartment, hopefully tonight.

No, really.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

You're very welcome, tommy. It will work itself out. DTW is one of the only airports that I feel comfortable saying you may actually make your connection given 30 minutes or less.

Allergy cocktails that work are the best cocktail party evah.

Oh yes indeedy. Now I just have to make the trees stop with the sex and I can go back to my preferred cocktail--the dirty martini.

That teleporter really needs to get finished. I need to spend more time visit people that are scattered hither and yon.
