Jewish liberals thought they had a lot in common with Blacks, until the
Blacks told them otherwise. But that is the Jew for you, eternally wrong
about everything. They were so dumb they could not even figure out what
Hitler had in store for them. Folks, it does not get any dumber than that!

Obama and the g.d. liberal Dems are spending the country into bankruptcy.
Not even the Tea Party can save us!

This guy argues that he's a Conservative Jew --as opposed to the
Christians-- and he too opposes Universal Healthcare, so he's
consistent with the Conservative Christians.

The trouble with Florida is too many shitheads like TM. A few fascists never
hurt anybody. In fact, taken in the proper dosages, such types are good for
you - you liberal-socialist-communist twit!

As to climate, South Florida is not nearly warm enough for me. Nay, only
Panama has got the climate right.

You are responding to a Tom Sherman post, not an Ed Dolan post. All Tom
Sherman knows is Wisconsin and Illinois. He does not know shit about
Minnesota other than Minneapolis where he bought all of his Sunset
recumbents. He probably roots for the g.d. Packers, not the g.d. Vikings!

Slow down and read more carefully, why don't you!

Actually, the only municipality in Minnesota where I purchased any Earth

I have considered suing the Vikings for defaming my heritage.

Nope, you lived on the Illinois side of the Quad Cities. The Quebec
reference is interesting to me. Whatever were you doing there? Do you speak
French? One of my favorite folk musics in the world is that which goes under
the heading of Quebecois. La Bolduc anyone!

Well, I will admit I have always liked Duluth. The geographic aspect of the
city is amazing. I used to watch the birds swooping by on the high cliffs
that overlook the city.

Nonsense, you posted from the Quad Cities, Illinois side. Do you not even
know which side of the Mississippi River you were on? Damn it, we all know
where you post from - and it is NOT from Iowa. Hells Bells, Iowa wouldn't
have you on a bet.

Note how Mr. Sherman never tells anyone anything. He is probably smart to
play it that way since he is still in the work force and I am capable of
skewering him if he is not careful. However note how I tell everyone
everything. That is because I don't give a good god damn about what anyone
thinks or says. Some day perhaps Mr. Sherman will enter into my universe of
wisdom, but not yet. He is as always a twerp and a twit. He has all the
courage of a mouse. My contempt for him only grows and grows.

Right, just keep on saying nothing about nothing. But why post anything if
you don't want to be read. You are truly one strange fucked-up character.

Don't keep what does not have some real value to you. What you do keep find a
use for in your home. If you really need storage space why not purchase a small
metal shed or a maybe one of the larger wooden ones. Why pay for someone else's
mortgage? If living in an apartment, find more creative methods to store in the
space available. Overstuffed furniture tends to have lots of empty space that
can be used with a little work.

It's really pretty straight forward. I've been renting storage
lockers from a Public Storage facility near my home off and on for
over twenty years. Never had any problems.

a. Make sure you pay your rent on time every month without fail. I
pay in person at least two or three days early. If I'm renting for
more than a month or two, and have the money, I pay the first few
months in advance. Keep your receipts. Don't get into a "the check
is in the mail" situation. You'll lose that one every time.

b. Inspect the unit BEFORE you sign the rental agreement. Look for
evidence of water damage - leaks and/or flooding. If you see any, ask
for another unit or find another facility.

c. Buy a good quality key operated high security pad lock at a
hardware store. Take it with you, and put it on your unit when you
sign the rental agreement, even if you don't plan on moving your stuff
in right away.

d. Make sure the manager has your current address and phone number.
Keep it updated.

e. Keep a detailed inventory of what's stored there.

f. Make sure someone else in your family knows where the locker is,
and where you store the key and inventory. If you have to sign in at
the office to get to the locker you should have at least one other
authorized person listed.

g. Inspect the locker and contents regularly. I check mine when I
pay the rent.

h. The storage facility IS NOT responsible for loss or damage (theft,
fire, flood, etc.) of the stuff you have stored there. There will be
language to that effect in your rental agreement. They may even have
you sign a separate document saying you understand that. If want to
be covered for losses you'll have to add a rider to your home owners/
renters policy. Expect your rates to go up.

i. When you're done with it, make sure the locker is completely empty
on or before the last day of the rental period.

Good luck.

Bingo, if you don't have to look smart it's way easier to forego the
chore.

I can barely make it to three weeks before running the hair clippers
over head and face. Beards are indeed most irritating.

If hair is a real problem a lot of people male and female have had
success losing hair after using the anti-cholestrol wonder drug
Lipitor, including myself.
