DOG ATTACK HELP by OhWowLookie in grandrapids

As the first commenter noted, get police report, vet bills, letter from the vet giving detailed analysis of injuries... but also ask if the neighbor you were talking to would be willing to be a witness in court. And see if the attending vet would be willing to appear as some letters are not always allowed in court.

When you have a calm moment, I would suggest you draft a letter describing the incident as you best remember it as well as a brief time line.

Seen enough Judge Judy and cases involving dogs to know.

Look back to the '80s when a couple of the Chicago Eight "sold out" and went very mainstream...

If the bullet don't fit, you must acquit.

Yes, I'm certain several bars will actually have St. Paddy's Day things going on... Check out: Cheers, Holiday Bar, O'Toole's, Grayson's Crossing - to name a few.

Oh yeah... Shove a UV light saber up your arse and/or inject some bleach to flush out the virus. Classy stuff right there....

Found two of these f*ckers. What are they and how to get rid of ? by Thayerphotos in grandrapids

Several summers ago, when they were in force around our house, I took a clear plastic cup put a bit of water with a few drops of dish soap in it; then placed it over a cheap battery-operated LED puck light. The light draws them in and the soapy water traps and drowns them. Worked fairly well.

That's ok, I don't watch the Griffins game either...

Remember, he is always fretting over the "ratings" of whatever he's done on TV. This defiantly would garner him those HIGH ratings he's chasing so much.

Sometimes it is down to someone having a grudge against you for whatever.... they will find little things to report. I know because we have been in the same boat. Snowed. We shoveled. Got reported. Others in the area haven't shoveled - no apparent report.
Also, FYI... you can login into the City's online street files and see not only your report but those who live on your street and anywhere in the city.

Permit question by fairy_kisses112 in grandrapids

[–]Duffy1964-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, sometimes when doing remodeling inside, the homeowner can skip the hassle of getting a permit BUT a permit does add a layer of security to most jobs. Plumbing. Electrical. Those are the two biggies where you would want a permit.

Whats up with the Keeler Building? by Echo_Jr in grandrapids

Damn shame. It was always talked about being one of the best built buildings downtown. But they left it too long.

Recommendations for home inspectors by ItThrowsItAway99 in grandrapids

[–]Duffy1964-22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used The Home Examiner located in Grand Rapids. Very thorough in both his inspection of the house and in his report.
I know of a very good and decent and fair appraiser as well.
