Politics & Government - 23 February 2007

According to an eviction notice, the amount my landlord's attorney said I owed was $1895.00. That included the back rent, attorney's fees and court costs.

While at court their attorney wrote up an agreement in front of me that we both agreed to and signed. According to that agreement the total owed to the landlord was $1662.00 not $1895.00. A difference of $233.00.

Today I look again at that agreement. I was to make $200 weekly payments towards the judgment for seven weeks straight. But here's the problem, 7 x 200 is $1400, not $1662. Okay so it appears the attorney made a mistake with his math. There should have been one final payment of $262.I honestly didn't notice the error till today.

According to the state of PA "Judgments by Agreement" are binding and cannot be appealed. My question is can the attorney come after me for a mathematical error he made? Would I still be responsible for that final payment of $262?

Seems to me there are more pros than cons to the idea. What are your thoughts?

"It is the soldier, not the reporter, Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the organizer, Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, Who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag, Who allows the protestor to burn the flag."
- Charles M. Province

I purchased a new truck under a Ford employee purchase program. I gave the dealer the pin # for my discount. I have taken delivery of the truck and have signed all documents required for the purchase. now two days later, dealership claims they made a mistake and gave me the wrong discount and says I need to sign new purchase contract or bring in $1,181.00 for the difference. Is my obligation over and they just need to eat the loss?

Elections seem to me to be all about charisma. Like Gore, Kerry chose to try so hard to make himself look smart and sophisticated, that he did not relate to the common person. It seems to be all about Charisma, nothing about issues. Can you name an election in recent history where the person with the least charisma won? Bush/Kerry, Bush/Gore, Clinton/Dole, Clinton/Bush, Bush/Dukakis, Reagan/Mondale, even way back to Kennedy/Nixon.
Think about it.

I witnessed (sole witness) a car accident involving a nice well-mannered person and a nasty mean person who is also some big city official. I think the good guy was at fault. However, I told the cops that I am not going to say anything and they can all go to hell. Can they legally make me speak? Because if they do I am going to say it is the nasty guy's fault...

LMAO....actually I think Obama would bring honor and integrity back to the White House. I feel there is a good chance that he would throw Osama Bin Laden out. (He's hiding in the basement)
What do you think?

Can you honestly still call it your money? It has been collected by the government for their use to run the nation.

it was in a country road.... head on head, i think it was knock for knock, but they say they were stationary... it had a sign saying national limit- the black and white one. so i assume the speed limit was 60mph, but i was only goin thirty, it was round a blind corner though and was very wet. i obviously didnt take liability and am waiting to hear from them as my car was not damaged at all and there is pretty done in. Was i doing anything illegal?- if i deny responsibility what will happen?

All the talk! It's either left or right, liberal or conservative, democrat or republican. People shoot their mouths off with the party line rhetoric. Does anyone believe that these labels are made up to focus people's attention? Go deep.

I'm on leave in southeast asia, going back to Iraq for a second tour in two weeks. Sick guarding oil tanker convoys and risking my life for private contractors. I signed up to serve my country, not global capitalism and Bush/Cheney corporate greed. Any other servicemen out there who found a way out of this? Any suggestions?

I am asking this on behalf of a friend of mine. He inherited together with his brother land, which is owned 50/50. He decided to convert an existing workshop into his business, with the ok of his brother, however, he is being bullied by his family now and can't make any decisions at all, not even about whether he can plant a hedge there and he is now not even allowed to let his dog on the land. His brother also insists on a share of the profit he makes from his business. My friend is now close to a nervous breakdown, as he has no freedom at all and even can't remove rubbish out of the workshop to continue building. Both brothers also inherited another piece of land and the grandmother's house, also 50/50 each. He is willing to give the shares of both places over to his brother if he in turn can have 100% of the land he is building on.
What are his options to end this terrible situation? His brother is not willing to agree to any deal, and my friend fears that he will never be free.
