    Trying To Buy A New CR-V

    I used Edmunds.com to do research when I bought my CRV in July. They have a service where where they will request quotes from multiple dealers in your area via email. I found the best price that way and didn't have to deal with all the negotiating garbage at the dealership. Walked in, handed...

    200 sf apartment

    I think some choose these tiny apartments because it allows them the lifestyle they desire. I have a good friend who lives in a 300 sf apartment in Brooklyn (with an Akita thrown in for good measure) that she pays $1300/mo for. She's got a combo bedroom/living area, kitchenette, and a small...

    very bad tornado in OKC

    Re: 'Tornado clearly targets conservatives': Daily Show creator The Oklahoma ME's office has had a multitude of problems over the last decade. They're understaffed and underfunded and what funds they do have were badly mismanaged by prior chief MEs who were expected to be doctors and CFOs at...

    Some College Grads Not Prepared For Interviewing

    I can understand your aggravation and feeling that small talk is a waste of time. But believe it or not the ability to chat/make small talk/etc is often a good indication of your ability to network and adapt to new people and settings. Both attributes are rather valuable in the workplace...

    News Article: When will "pit bull denial" stop?

    I remember being surprised that we didn't include chows and dobermans - but that's probably b/c I had scary experiences with both. And I always laugh when we tell someone they're 'required' to keep a dog penned up. Because we actually follow up to make sure so often... ;)

    News Article: When will "pit bull denial" stop?

    Until a couple of years ago we had pit bull, rottweiler, and presa canario called out as 'ineligible' breeds. Now we ask history of aggressive behavior/previous bite instead because we found narrowing to breed wasn't helping loss ratios. Incidentally, we don't uprate for history of dog related...

    News Article: When will "pit bull denial" stop?

    They range and typically depend on circumstance. I've seen liability limits exhausted (one such instance was from 2 dalmations who were allowed to run free in their neighborhood - attacked a woman who was walking her little dog. Killed the little dog, seriously injured her. By the time all...

    News Article: When will "pit bull denial" stop?

    As part of my job I regularly review home liability claims and far too many of them are the result of a dog bite. I can tell you that the majority of our dog bites are from 'gentler' breeds - lots of lab, dalmation, and cocker spaniels who bite because of circumstances and/or the way they're...

    Sometimes I wish I was a hot chick.

    I think the added caveat of 'with no respect for herself' needs to be added to this chick's title. Sounds to me like she sold her soul and her body to live a cushy life. Gross.

    What would you do without your medication? Greece is finding out.

    I take medications that provide the hormones my body can no longer make in sufficient quantities due to autoimmune issues. These aren't problems that could be reversed through lifestyle changes and I don't know how effective any over the counter, natural remedies would be either. I could...
