Erin, you can filter your updates to exclude them and make that your default.
Already done that. The problem is that he immediately jumps on and responds to EVERYTHING i post which i find very irritating. I want him to not see *my* updates, which is slightly more difficult.
No, Erin, he means that you CAN choose who sees your updates, including the person you keep mentioning.

Oh! i finally figuring it out with the help file. Praise be! Woo hoo! (don't worry, i'm not blocking any of you, i like you people and value your input and opinions!)
(And this batch of iced tea is very good.)
And very refreshing in truly hot weather.
In annoying sewer news, i did manage to get the number of the plumber who worked on my place last time, who i liked and trusted and did great work. He's on a job right now but will swing by tonight or tomorrow, have a look at what's open, and then give me a call back with an estimate. Of course, having any new party get into the mess is pretty much guaranteed to cost more than the original folks just fixing their mistake, but after several phone conversations he's not coming down more on the price. I made it pretty clear that i'm upset with the lack of communication (e.g. "his people" cutting the line and turning off the water two days before notifying him or me....as i have discovered from my poor non-complaining cat sitters who have just been bringing bottled water with them and not using my bathroom. They thought i just hadn't warned them. Sheesh.) I kinda can't believe that anyone would turn off the water and NOT BOTHER notifying ANYONE. Even if they know i'm on vacation, that's still sort of a big deal. And i have people coming and going twice a day, so it's not like the place is abandoned.

Yep! This is a pretty great feature, especially when you're trying to organize a ninja game night without JZ seeing. Sadly, you can't change the privacy of a post once it's posted, so what's secret is secret FOREVER.

Yeah, but...he CUT YOUR WATER LINE, and wants to CHARGE YOU FOR IT? I still...just...WTF. Jesus.
He says that it wasn't where the plans said and looked just like a root (and there's lots of roots) so they have no culpability for cutting it. And they would normally repair it at no fee, but because it's old and crumbly they can't. then there's lots more digging,drilling, and heavy labor to replace the pipe. *le sigh*

It's not his fault because he can't tell a pipe from a root? Isn't recognizing pipes kind of his job? Shouldn't he have been more careful if the pipe wasn't where it was supposed to be?
I call bullshit.

seconded.
