ago, it would be worth two thousand nine hundred dollars today. How much did the CEO of Exxon make over that period? Here's the question. Is it more beneficial to shareholders to be invested or for executive level management that you be invested?

If you stole a pen from the bank is it still classed as a bank robbery?

I moved my wife and daughter over 200 miles away to a new home primarily to get away from my neighbor. That family verbally assaulted us and challenged our presence in this rural area repeatedly. We visited friends adjacent to this family last week which led to the police being summoned to our friends house for gestures we did not do. Can we get a restraining order to prevent this harassment and to avoid potential staulking and threats? There is much more to this story but I want to have some legal documentation in place in case something happens in response to an upcoming Farm Bureau suit against these people in which I am to testify.

How did it make you feel?
Did you get justice?
Did you want to get revenge?
Did it change you as a person?

Over the 4th of July, I was at an amusement park. I had a very nice expensive phone in my pocket.

My mom convinced me not to take my purse (I shouldn't of listened to her!) but I ended up losing it at some point.

We called the phone all night. When the park was closing (Around 10 pm) I went to lost and found and put down my information.

We called the phone one last time, but realized that it was going straight to voice mail, this time.

So, obviously, someone had it and turned it off.

The next day, my mom received a text message on her phone (From my phone) with a number on it.

I called it and proceeded to talk to a lady....She claimed her kids had found it and she didn't realize they had it, until that day.

"I'm trying to do the right thing. I do have cingular, so I could have easily put my Sim card in it."

I thanked her for being honest.

She then asks about a finder's fee, which kind of caught me off guard.

I asked her what she thought was fair....

I placed an order with a seller, a couple months ago, but due to several other issues, such as an election, eviction notice, legal issues in fighting the eviction, and problems with other bidders, I was told he was going to seek legal action against me, from Arizona, while i'm in South Dakota.
The main jist, is that while I placed the orders, they were never delivered, nor was any money sent, except for a 25 dollar deposit on the amount.
Now, here's where I am curious, Ebay has it's own policy in place, and if he's seeking extra damages, without product, then can I countersue for double jeporday? After all, I have been given a strike by Ebay, from the guy, and it would cost way more to drive or fly to Arizona, defend myself, and then pay to put myself up for a couple days...should I contact the Attorney General of both states?
Advice, legal quotes, or other information would be helpful. If I knew this guy was this big of a headcase, I'd never have looked in his store.

For instance, General W.T. Sherman cut a swath through the Democrat Confederate South that brought them to their knees...

General Sherman also forced Democrat Confederate South soldiers taken prisoner to CLEAR THE ROADS OF LAND MINES, so that Union soldiers could carry on with their March to the Sea...

Could General Praetorius use these tactics? I mean, if we were to even believe that Muslims would actually give a damn about other Muslims being blown up by land mines?

I am convinced that the present leadership of the Democratic party has sold out to big business. That's why they keep nominating candidates who can't win. Gore the Bore put America to sleep. Ketchup Kerry was even worse. Now, the have Hillary and Obama "duking it out" over who is more irresponsible. This whole thing is staged, folks.

I have seen them tip toe around all the questions that make them uncomfortable. Why is that? Are they afraid that they don't know how to answer the questions? Do they feel like they are too good to answer questions that make them vulnerable?

Is there an organization here in the U.S, or even on the web that brings former child soldiers together, and discuss about their past. I was 13 when i started to battle with others in street corners of Mogadishu than was forced to fight in another city when our militia lost control in Mogadishu. Anyone else, there?
