I've been on my father's insurance plan since I was 16. Now, a graduate from college and living in NYC, I no longer need a car. While I do occasionally take trips home and enjoy a car ride by myself, I think it would be a better for my father financially if I took my name off my dad's policy (no speeding tickets, only one car accident when I was 16 which didn't raise insurance premium, but nonethless). My father wants to keep me on because he knows how much I love driving when I get home on those few occasions where I do and I need to be insured (he's good like that). However, I know it would save my dad money if I was taken off... and since living in the city, it seems like a sound decision. My question is whether it's possible to remove my name from the policy without my father's permission. Also... if I ever want to use a rental car, is the insurance the company provides enough to cover me, or do they require supplemental insurance, as well?

I had this terrible tenant in my house. I trusted her, but things went sour about 3 years in, and she stopped paying my rent on time. She came up with feeble excuses. I had to take her to court, but the process took 6 months. Just before the bailiffs were going to remove her, she left. I don't know where she has gone, she has trashed the place up. She owes 3 grand of rent. I don't have her security deposit because she came up with some sob story about her daughter being abused and how she needed money. Franly I feel very ripped off and want some sort of retribution. She was on housing benefits. Any ideas ?

I was reading this article on Y! and just had a though and wanted to see if anyone agrees....

Why do these "healthy kids" activists always go after fast food companies but you never hear about them confronting TV or video game makers. Are kids really getting too much fast food or not enough exercise??
I feel it's a mixture of both. I think the fast food that their mom has to pick up on her way home from work wouldn't be so harmful if kids (and adults for that matter) got some exercise instead of spending all day in front of the TV or game system.

What do you think??

Do Federal EEO or any California statutes require that a school district publicly post a job opening before filling it?

The reason I ask is that a full-time teaching position was made vacant on a Saturday....and the position was offerred to someone on Monday morning.

Thanks in advance.

My mom made this weekend for us in the Cape, like just a few days. i didn't particularly want to go, I don't like beaches and I don't like the heat, and all my mom's going to do is sunbath while I sit in the hotel and read and bore myself to death. But I go because I feel like it's my obligation because she complains that she has no money but she makes us go on these trips. It just makes me feel guilty if I say I don't want to go with her. So today she yells at me about packing and just bickering. It made me not want to go. Because it just means that we're going to fight the whole time. But we were in the car and she had a ***** fit complaining about my attitude or whatever because I ran inside because I forgot something, I told her I was going inside, and then when I come out she made me go get something for her and I was pissed because I already was in there. So she kicked me out of the car and now shes off to the cape and I'm at home. I feel completely guilty and I don't know why.

The party is being held at a public restaurant, and everyone is expected to buy their own meal. Then theres a club excursion. All invitees are expected to pay a cover charge to get into the club.
I don't have anytihng all white to wear, and I'd feel more comforable in other colors. I'd like to come to the party, but I've been told that I'd better wear all white or don't come at all. Is the inviter being selfish here? I mean, I'm not being served dinner, or getting a free pass into the club. I'm getting the 'privelge' to wish this person a happy birthday. Why should I have to do all this extra crap and spend a ton of money?

Consider the losers of WW2, Germany and Japan most notable, the real starters of this war. Now we see Germany much richer than the UK and basically running the EU from its ball bags. We also see Japan as the second richest nation on the earth with share points that are 14,000+ against the DOW Jones which is 9000+. So... Did we really win? Or lose in the long run? Because right now in the economic show of things they're certainly not losers! Dont you think?

Rep. Nancy Boyda [D - Kan.] walked out of the Armed Service Committee hearings when retired Gen. Jack Keane said that "progress is being made."

She later commented that "there was only so much (of that) that you could take until we had to leave the room for a while ...."

**
Also last week, a spokesman for Speaker Pelosi said the Democratic leaders "are not willing to concede there are positive things to point to" in Iraq.

**
Commenting on the possibility that Gen. Petraeus' Sept. report might be positive [referring to the surge strategy], House Majority Whip James Clyburn [D. - SC] said that such good news would be "a real big problem for us."

****
Who is it that has the 'tunnel vision'?? Doesn't this seem to you that the Democrats can't handle the possibility that civilization is making progress in Iraq?

What do the Dems want -- political power in America (if temporary) at any cost to the rest of the world?

{I actually read most of the responses you folk write.}
