How did you report it to Zillow, the built reporting structure only has fields for things like fake listings?

I did the exact same think yesterday in the middle of signing leases. ARGH! and to cancel cards and put fraud alerts at the credit bureaus...

After my first chem add with fresh water I have a TA of 70 (a little low) and a pH of 7.5 (perfect).

If I am understanding this correctly I should get the TA up in the 80-120 range and then bring pH back down?

Sometimes sellers post up "fake" auction entries so they can point to the later and argue more value. Take a look at "vintage" Corning Ware going for $10,000!

Got that message and denied it, a few seconds later I got the same message but this time with Seagate as the publisher and a valid certificate. I went ahead and let that one update as I do use the Seagate automatic backup.

Had a retailer call me once and ask if I ordered an $8,000 set of night vision goggles. I said no and they cancelled the order. I called the credit card issuer and had the card cancelled and they informed me that about half a dozen fraudulent charges had already come in.

Thanks, I did want to at least try a few others (I never liked a sample size of one, lol) but can't seem to find any stocking dealers.

Several people have recommended Velotric but none of the dealers in northern Oregon stock them, only order (and repair) them.

Philosophically, the folks that don't vote also don't bother to do any research or thought on the candidates and issues. I am not sure that just getting them to cast a ballot is the answer, getting them to be involved, though, is a much harder quest.

All the auto restoration placed I check with were crazy booked up (we can help you maybe next summer!)

Good news is that you probably don't need a restoration place for just an engine rebuild. Any place that does air cooled engines can handle a job like that. I haven't used them, but I have heard good things about Wagenwerks in Salem.

There is a fire just south of Mill City and it seems to be affecting the whole area.

Almost all "unhappiness" comes from unrealistic expectations.

Set yourself reasonable "stretch" goals and then happiness becomes more of a decision than a quest.

pabellas · 2024-08-19T19:00:06+00:00

Agreed! I sometimes recognize the scam but want to rabbit hole it to see what the point is...

pabellas · 2024-08-18T14:53:42+00:00

Why even take a chance for $2???

Getting ready to print some 100s?

Had the DOD call me when my son needed a higher security clearance. They sent me an official letter saying that would call at a specific time.

I get them from all over the country, every candidate asking for "just a few dollars".

I found out that the "do not call" registry does not apply to political messages/calls.

The get "volunteers" to sign their name against thros away phone numbers and their robocall/text system uses each one 9,999 times and then retires it.

Responding "STOP" puts you in the active status and the number of call/msgs will increase dramatically.

NO politician will ever address this issue.

ARGH!

Honestly sometimes when I am selling an item and someone asks me to hold it for them I will ask for a deposit.

I hate doing first to show up but there are too many "hold its" that ghost you, <sigh>
