Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness  

[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!

I liked the episode but felt all throughout that something was missing or wrong. Maybe it was the writing.

I found the ending a little bland and contrived.

Joss defends the montage:

joss "Angel 4: Well, It's a Start." Mar 3, 2004 7:48:58 pm PST

(Which frankly, after reading the reaction to it in the Angel thread, wasn't as cringe inducing as I was expecting. I guess the lack of Scare-ah helped.)

There was a montage? Didn't notice.

The schmoopy music, and everyone looking sad...

Ah... must have been when I feel asleep.

I figured you were asleep.

'Ouise, I got your email and I am interested on getting together to contribute to B.org in one money order. My hard drive seems to be where email go to die, so I thought I'd respond here.

FYI, our mortgage company sucks. When we signed our mortgage agreement here is what we agreed to:

Monthly payments
First payment April 1
Property Taxes included in payment

We got a letter from them yesterday with these terms listed:

Bi-weekly payments
First payment March 12
Property taxes included but $954 more than required

I just tried to call them to try and straighten this out but the offices are closed due to a "Safety Drill". WTF?

D'oh! That really sucks. Does your broker even listen when you talk to him.


Megan E. - Mar 09, 2004 3:16:46 am PST #5591 of 6793

I just talked to our lawyer and he says that this mortgage company (that the broker advised us to use) is the worst company he's ever dealt with. In 2009, we will be switching.

If I can't straighten this out myself, I'll send my lawyer after them.

I can't even.

Megan, my bank is doing this too. Mine are trying to build up a little surplus in my tax account to give themselves surety that the taxes will be paid (Policy --I think they like to have 6 months ahead stashed). If this is what is happening in your sitch, you might be able to talk to them about taking those funds in a more measured way. I'm getting mine to build up the surplus, by taking a bit extra every month until they get to their comfort zone. They should have explained all of this clearly to you in advance, of course. Mine did, but I'm dealing with friends from a branch where I've banked for 15 years.
