My landlord was just served a foreclosure notice. The landlords are a young couple who bought their first house with no money down, adjustable mortage from a subprime lender. A unfortunately common story. I signed lease in Nov 07 for one year and I'm wondering who I pay my rent to for April...

I'm using Proxy Way to hide my web surfing activities ;D. When I test my location from the proxy way site, I appear to be hidden but when I click the "your current location" link on the zabasearch site, I get my IP address and location. Any thoughts on how I can use this tool (or maybe...

Wow, the SF Bay Area lost a great anchorman. He was one of the few staple newscasters around here. He just went in for a second hip replacement and died a day later. Not from anesthesia, but a massive heart attack. Are blood clots more prevalant with this type of surgery. :confused:Any...

Anyone here have minor surgery or a colonoscopy with a mixture of versed and demerol? Can you share your experiences with this twighlight sleep type mixture? Any problems? Thanks!

My son is somewhere in this f___ed up mess. I rarely pay attention to the news stories about Iraq because I can't dwell on the dangers my child is around on a daily basis. I would literally be a basket case if I watched CNN, or other news outlets...

I'm thinking of plopping some cash into these funds. Anyone have feedback? Note: I lean towards the safe side.

Insurance rant below ;D United Health Care bought Pacific Care about a year ago and the fallout in the bay area is ugly. There are a significant number of doctors on the peninsula (south of San Francisco) who have refused to sign the new contract with United Health Care after the acquisition...

Sorry for the dense question... :) If you're allowed to claim IRA contributions on your income taxes and have until April 15th to fully fund the IRA account, how does the IRS check the validity of your contribution? Do they wait until the brokerage or bank reports something at the end of the...

I have Quicken Will Maker Plus 2004 that I'd like to use for my Mom's stuff. Does anyone know if you need to use the latest and greatest version, i.e. Will Maker Plus 2007? ???

I watched a fantastic show on PBS this morning regarding heart disease. I found it educational regarding the history of heart disease in this country. In addition to the historical aspect or heart disease in the last hundred year, the show also covered the amazing technological advances such as...

I've been hounded recently by a large telecommunications company (ahem) in the bay area. My resume is apparently still floating around out there and they were quite impressed. It's more money, but I would have a commute. The recruiter, who is outsourced by the way, is requesting my SS number...

El Gaupo - Kathy says "long time, no see!" ;D ;D ;D :laugh: :laugh:

I'm having a major Bob Seger moment. ;D What's your music mood like?

Is there an overall blood test for cancer? I recall that my gym friend who recently passed away from cancer told me there is such a test.

I left mega corp about a month ago and joined a small, family oriented company. Pay is great, pension is excellent, as well as other benefits. Virtually everyone in the office has been with the company for a long, long time. However, the job itself is tedious and sloggy. I kinda knew that going...

I'm seriously contemplating not using a land line when we move into our new house. We pay for a cell phone and a Vonage phone, which I think more than adequately meets our phone requirements...except 911. For those folks who've ditched their land line: What are you doing about 911 access in case...

What are you doing for your hot flashes? seriously.

Sorry if this question is too broad. I'll be receiving 100k in about a month and I'd like to put it in a place that's relatively safe, that's not a MM account. I have money already in a Vanguard Wellsely account and so far I'm very happy. I'm thinking STAR or Wellington are good funds too. Any...

I'm hooking up some surveillance cameras :police: Does anyone know if a video capture card is the same as video codecs? Thanks in advance.

... in California. The San Francisco Bay Area in particular. Someone please describe the advantages of owning (newly purchased that is) real estate in the SF Bay Area? We've owned our place for over 2 years in one of the most overpriced markets on the planet. I'm saddled with an obese mortgage...

There's no alert button in my inbox to tell Dory and the moderators about porn spam. I got two inboxes from Charles Schwab (guest account) with porn links and a pic of a naked asian dude. How can I forward the spam to the moderators?
