My family purchased a new home in 1990 and signed a contract in which we agreed to pay a common charge, sort of something like a homeowners association I'm guessing. Half way into construction, the builder went bankrupt, abandoned the remaining lots, and never issued to the families that already moved in, a C.O. In the next 15 yrs, our public street was taken care of by NYC.

Now, a new builder has finished building the abandoned lots from 15 yrs ago and is suing us for 2 yrs worth of unpaid homeowner's association fees for things like new street pavements, fixing burst water pipes. etc...things that are not on my public street, but are located and done on the streets belonging to the new lots, which are private streets btw.

The new builder never gave us a CO either. Furthermore, my next door neighbor is exempt from these fees, which I dont understand because we are a row of 6 townhouses. He moved in just recently tho.

So, does my contract change under circumstances?

I am very strongly considering entering the Navy. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Anthropology, and would like to be a CTI, or maybe a CR. I earned a 97 on the ASVAB, and took an online CTI Linguistics practice test and scored a perfect 10/10. All that being said, I am a vegetarian. I am sure I can handle all the physical and mental stresses the Navy gives me, but will absolutely not eat meat. So my question is this: will I have a balanced, nutritious diet during basic training, considering that I will not eat meat under any circumstances?

I am from Canada and I know our views on guns are different but I would like to know what % of American citizens own a hand gun. I was viewing questions yesterday that someone asked what make of gun they should purchase and some of the replies were surprising ---"I have this make at home and this type for my car and this one for the office" Just how many guns fights do you have on the way to work?
Our crime rate is way to high as well and 98% of gun crimes are drive by shooting involving drug buyers and sellers. (hopefully they will wipe each other out) and me owning a gun would have no affect on a drive by.
-please be polite

I'm not a fan of divorce, but I can't understand how any human being would want to associate with that woman. That is unfathomable.

I noticed that immigrants in USA can't buy guns or keep them. Is there any possible way to keep a gun at houses for foreigners? Even something close to a gun?

would you favor a national plan that only covers catastrophic illness and leaves coverage of every day sniffles to the private health plans?

I think it is a good proposal. Should have been suggested when Republicans had control of Congress, for sure, and likely it is a purely political gesture for the '08 campaigns, but, never the less, it is a step towards fiscal responsibility, what do you think?
