Continued ~ma for your mom, Laura. Glad it went well. And lots of ~ma for you, too.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Laura, I'm glad the procedure went well. Tons of ~ma for your mother.
My friend H came over today and packed a bunch of books with me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ginger, if you have trouble finding henna I'd be happy to run down the street to this place for you. [link]

Thanks, Aurelia. There's a Patel Brothers about 2 miles away that I was going to check out. Oddly, I didn't think to google.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I just gave someone advice on eating vegan while on a Birthright Israel trip, and now I really want to go to Israel again. I'm starting to look into programs for next summer -- I could do some kind of learning program for a few weeks, and then travel around for a week or two.

I need advice. I got a collections letter saying I owe Sprint money from 1998. I don't know what this could be about and I looked at my credit reports and there's nothing on them about Sprint.
I talked to a rep on the phone who did say that my debt had been purchased by the collection agency and that Sprint would no longer have records.
I'm not sure how to dispute this or if saying it's not my credit report is enough to dispute it.

Have a look here: [link] They are required to prove there is an actual debt, in writing.

Also, 1998 is very likely to be way over the statute of limitations. It looks like in FL, that would be six years. This smells like a scam of some sort to me.

askye, as flea says, that debt is way beyond the statute of limitations in any state. Debt collection companies buy debts for pennies on the dollar and harass people for payment even when the debt is too old.
Clark Howard says to send a drop-dead letter [link] by certified mail, return receipt requested. Do not talk to them, except to say that you do not acknowledge the debt and that the debt is beyond the statute of limitations.

I'm wondering if this is some kind of mistake or if this was some kind of zombie debt of some kind.
I found a sample letter that asks for a lot of info including that the statute of limitations has not expired. I'm going to use that as my basis to send to them.
