If they eliminate property tax and grasp onto the idea of real home ownership, I think I would move.

It doesn't change the fact that the city wants the money but doesn't want to actually work to change it for the better. The problem in this area, we have this great big entrenched idea that the city of Detroit is important to the entire state when in fact it is not and never will be. On top of...

If you had the those 4T plates and got weighed in Michigan, you wouldn't get a ticket if you weighed 8540 pounds If you got weighed in Michigan, they will ignore your license tags and look at the OEM sticker to see what your GVW is. They do not care what the plate says because the plate is part...

I understand that but for you and me, it is a given what you wrote while for those who read this and try to emulate our success, it can be difficult to understand what the difference is or the expectations are what you stated without the words of honesty or trust being discussed. I don't think...

Well not really, I'm one of those webbots that was created by this guy who sits in his basement at his mothers house in Chicago 'burb using me to get as high of a post count to take EO down so he can start his own site - expediters offline. I am programmed to post 1,000,000,000 times in the...

No Dakota, it isn't the kids - most parents are just lazy and don't want to be involved with what it takes to raise a family. I see a lot of them, like the ones across the street who just had a 18 month old drown in the pool who are clueless to what parenting is all about. By the way my wife and...

Leo, I wish it was the case but the best expediting company is one that fits right for the individual who is contracted with them. By using the words partner, equal, valuable asset and openness, it gives a false sense where a person is in the real world. The word honesty and trust is missing...

You mean you both exist?

That's the point I am trying to make. If it is a community, given the worst or best neighbors, the community cares as a whole about what went on but now a days it is just like trucking - you can watch out your window as your neighbors are being robbed and not know whether it is their kids or...

Whether or not it has to do with discrimination is not a real issue here, it is whether or not the state has a right to govern themselves as the citizens see fit. Like the Californian ruling that also overturned a referendum on the state ballot (more precisely a state constitutional...

Well I'm not trying to pee on anyone's leg here but the problem is that we don't have communities any more - we have people who don't want to live together as communities and this includes those nice planned communities where there is always a HOA mucking about to maintain the community that...

For some of us, this quote shows the absolute stupidity and idiotic mentality the county has; "Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano said "the federal employees could help build strong partnerships between the city and other governments to identify efficiencies and cost-savings by sharing...

I find that unless the city or township are willing to actually put an effort into maintaining their obligation, then they should never ask homeowners to do their part to keep the city or township looking acceptable. In my case I am fighting a battle over drainage ditches and incomplete work...

Ragman, I think the Acme brand is better.

Oh don't worry Brisco, I got my lesson on Texas Zoning laws. BUT with that said, I also learned there is a difference between zoning and building codes in Texas.

Does she blanch them or just clean them and freeze them?

I would look at a lot of companies. Not just one. How much more depends on your other obligations. It cost me 65 cents but I was making over a buck a mile at the same time paying lots of bills.

I would agree with you but in the case of Reagan, the people were angry and fed up with Carter, his own party turned on him and Reagan stepped in, presented a plan and ask congress to reduce taxes among other things which the man made the country feel it was going to get better and did. Obama...

What is the size of your van? How much do you expect to make or need to make? Have you talked to anyone at any company? You don't have to answer them but think about them. You have to figure out what your expenses are to operate that van. Mine were about 45 cents a mile before I tacked...

I'm sorry, you could PM'ed me then I would have gladly changed it.
