Normal

Submitted by ANGELnWard14 on Thu, 01/26/2012 - 23:39.

Examining the levels of mania in any environment require the examiner to fairly and reasonably evaluate the defining normal values of the environment and all the factors of the various participants. Failure to equitably balance the concepts can result in critical mistakes and disregard for the truth. In most cases, it requires a degree to make such a diagnosis.

The Donegal Doggs are Jenny O'Boyle, Paul Kirk Jr., and Vincent Polowy. 
If you missed them at the Flat Iron, make an effort to get out and prime yourself for St. Paddy's Day.  They definitely warm the cockles! Great pub fare,too.

A little Mystery to figure out..." Comment to FO's post

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 01/22/2012 - 11:23.

People are very complex, and we all don't think alike or see things the same way.   It is always a challenge to try to understand the messages other people  are sending our way.   Sometimes it is difficult.  Sometimes we need  to separate the message from the messenger.  It is all confusing.

Twisting the knife in Frank Giglio's back

Submitted by FO on Sat, 01/21/2012 - 12:44.

The well documented saga of Frank Giglio is not over. 3 years ago, the City demolished a structurally sound house. Then that land went into foreclosure due to the no bid demo contract fees that were added to the tax bill.  The lot was sold at a sherriff sale to a mysterious buyer last summer who  took about 6 months or so to record the deed for parcel #004-10-027. In the meantime, both parcels # 004-10-027 and the adjacent lot, owned by Giglio, #004-10-028, were bulldozed.

ON BANKS REFUSING CASH WITHDRAWALS – Ann Barnhardt

Submitted by Quest-News-Serv... on Sat, 01/21/2012 - 04:52.

I have received enough calls and emails on this within the last few weeks to A.) cause concern and B.) merit a post.People are having difficulty withdrawing cash from banks. I just received the SECOND call on this from California this week. The question is, do banks have the right to deny you cash withdrawals? The answer is NO. They do not. And both of the men I have heard from in California were obviously being bee-essed by their bank. The bank couldn’t cite statute, and then started haggling over the amount of cash withdrawals they would allow.

Glass cutting is just crystal crushing

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Tue, 01/17/2012 - 19:59.

Cutting glass is an exercise in preparation. 

First you need a flat table surface which has rug, resilient rubber, or other soft surface on it.

Second, the glass surface needs to be  clean.  Very clean.  Especially if you are attempting to cut old glass - make sure that the surface has no paint, grit, etc. on it.   Dirty glass and your cut will likely fail.

Jobs created in Bonaire by Billionaires in Venezuelia

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 01/15/2012 - 23:21.

You didn't subscribe to this post, so please disregard.   You can't see us.

Anyway, the only way we in Bonaire are able to produce pottery and export it to Venezuela is because there are no government regulation in Venezuala and no taxes on the 1% there. 

So, of course, there are lots of jobs in Venezuela and those jobs actually move offshore to the Dutch West Indies.

Crazy, isn't it, how trickle up works?

Writing off debt

Submitted by lmcshane on Sun, 01/15/2012 - 15:42.

How is it that the NEORSD or any public entity can "write off" bad debt?

Just wondering who exactly are these folks? Are the MAJOR outstanding bills due to companies, LLCs, or just mom and pop households?

Winter (edifying) Virtual Vacation from NEO - Wanna Go!?

Submitted by Jeff Buster on Sat, 01/14/2012 - 19:01.

As I have been looking back through a hard drive for images for a story, it dawned on me that perhaps there could be a popular appetite for taking a virtual vacation - not to carouse, but to get educated and to gain a bit of vitamin D from exposure to something other than neo.

public telephone booths Bonaire WI 2004

Less than a decade ago we refered to "home telephone", "work telephone", "public telephone' - these descriptions are pretty much history. 

Instead of a phone being in a "place" where you go to use it, our bodies are now the "place" for phones.
