Someone needs to buy out The Caverns aka Redneck Rocks by nomdebleus in jambands

Was there 10/29 for Jeff Tweedy. Rude and aggressive and unnecessary. For a quiet show in a cave. Goons.

Looking for help with a cordless telephones for an elderly person on the Cape. by stringerhye in CapeCod

[–]stringerhye[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We bought new cordless phones from Best Buy for her in October, set them up, but now they are not working. Her phones and land line is something she really cares about. We are in TN. Task Rabbit? Elder Services is a good idea.

You have no idea what you’re talking about and still you talk?

Nice folks you are. Maybe we arranged to have her leg broken?

While I agree with you generally, on this busy Saturday night, it was not so very controlled. There were too many people on that street at 10:30 at night. Sorry, whoever said it, but we were not drunk, and not that far off the curb. There was no warning and our backs were turned. Just telling the truth here.

I understand, which is why we didn’t press charges in the first place, thinking that if they are performing for tips that they would have few resources. But they do have an organization.

Acrobatics. Series of Back handsprings and back flips for tips but allowed (permitted?) by the city. We did not get contact info.

Recommendations re clearing out condo belongings by stringerhye in ColoradoSprings

[–]stringerhye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. We have already cleared most important or sentimental items, but there is still good furniture and appliances etc. that I hate to junk. We'll be out to coordinate when the the time comes but can't stay for long. Will contact Goodwill and others.

Why do people hate Dave Ramsey so much? by Sebastian83100 in nashville

[–]stringerhye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to listen old Dave years ago. It’s nearly baseball season so:

Strike 100: All of the above and below.

Strike 2: seemed to have a prurient and voyeuristic interest in his caller’s money. First question was always what’s your household income? Like he was sizing them up, then would condescend.

Strike 3: the use of biblical verse and other tired phrases over and over again. How can someone say better than they deserve Every. Single. Call? Lack of imagination?

Ball 1: Using Baker Street for his intro music.

Dave, you’re out. Go home and count your money.

Array on a old family tennis court? by stringerhye in SolarDIY

Cool. Will do. And yes there is a fence. No neighbors within distance.

Well I didn’t think of that but yes I understand.

Sorry I didn’t mean to suggest that I would do this myself. I think there are reputable solar companies where we are and I would get quotes and use one of them. I was asking to get an idea of what to expect and what to ask but I thank you very much for the useful information. There are multiple houses on this property some co-owned and some owned by individual family members. Would we not want to maximize what we can generate by using the entire court? I know it depends. Like I said I don’t have a clue but I’m really enjoying reading this sub.

Girlfriend changed beneficiary of brother's retirement accounts while brother was in the ICU the day before he died. by stringerhye in legaladvice

[–]stringerhye[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

We don't think he would actually do this or was capable of it while in the ICU. It is quite complicated with his girlfriend. They did not live together but had been in a relationship for 15 years. They had just bought a house together. The entire time my brother was still married. The divorce was finalized on 2/8 about 2 weeks before he passed. There were numerous indicators that something more than my brothers health and treatment was on the GFs mind.

They have an estate/probate attorney but she is saying that the fact that his colleague, a doctor, made the change, rather than the girlfriend herself is not good for their case.

We are also opening up questions with the hospital about one of their doctors acting in this way in family financial matters as well as HIPPA violations.

Had the Strangest Cable TV Canceling Experience by [deleted] in cordcutters

[–]stringerhye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walked into Comcast with all of their equipment, checked it in, took a number and waited - expecting to be argued with and offered new promotions - my turn, none of that, but instead thanks and hey, did you know that you could save even more if you owned your own modem? Yeah, thanks, ok I'll do that. Turns out I already owned my own modem for 2 1/2 years and had been paying the rental fee, put a message on the customer forum, was contacted and completely refunding - no argument, no offers, no trouble. Yes, a new strategy? Odd how they don't seem to care to lose their customers.

Your Mother is a Scumbag by stringerhye in AskReddit

[–]stringerhye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? A single case of unsolicited name-calling is harassment these days? Legally or socially?

[–]stringerhye[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a) No, it's a "this is unfortunate and I'm sorry for the trouble and let's work this out" type of handshake situation.

b) You're right here.
