    Which school field trips do you remember going on?

    I remember seeing A play, Peter and the Wolf and Cheaper by the Dozen. 6th grade we had an out of state trip To EPCoT. The following year to an overnight to Carowinds. We did the science center on the school day. That night we went to a mall for dinner and Ice skating. One of my classmates...

    School choice

    This confuses me and perhaps some can answer. Maybe it varies by state--but I had thought, perhaps incorrectly, that money only goes to the school for actual students in the seat? So if the student opted to pay for private school, the school "loses" money anyway.

    School choice

    I had school choice in the early 90s. It was nice. It was a magnet school and you had to test to get in. My zoned school did not have as many options and it frustrated my mom. Near where I live now in Florida, there are also "magnet" Schools. But too my knowledge, they are lottery based. This...

    Need a biopsy - so scared

    I had to have one. I forgot what the lump was called. But it was suspected to be benign and it was. Needle biopsy is the only way to know for sure. When it is done, they then add a marker so that when the same area pops up on another mammogram, they will know. Had another mammogram last year...

    Hurricane in Disney Question

    It is not guaranteed but Disney and airlines have been flexible in the past with adjusting dates. It's how we were able to book a room at the last minute in order to evacuate in 2004. So insurance wouldn't necessarily be needed, but it would certainly make things easier. Direct hits are rare...

    1 year lease on rental property

    To add, you can't list the property until you know it is available. The tenant still gets to give a 30 days notice. It can be headache if the market is sensitive to when renters are available and interested.

    1 year lease on rental property

    It is very reasonable. But he is within his rights to decline. Especially if he is unsure about how things will go in the market. Could you bump your plan to March? This gives you an extra 30 days And it may be easier to negotiate the closing than it is an extra month in the rental. I know...

    FLL airport - Shooting today at 1 pm - 9 wounded

    Have you seen videos of brawls at Chuck E. Cheese locations? It could be for that reason and the company they hired happens to send a fully armed guard. But given how sick people can be--it's probably also for reasons of dealing with an active shooter. Very sad indeed.

    Marathon Weekend 2017!

    Call me weird but for many reasons I don't buy the I Did It shirts--I feel like I will jinx myself.

    Marathon Weekend 2017!

    No because they want MK vacated by a certain time with all runners gone. Plus even though it is disney property, I am sure permitting for the roads is still involved. Plus, the whole volunteer schedule would be hosed as I am sure people might have had other plans later in the day.

    Mariah Carey

    I think there is a HUGE difference between announcing an incorrect result and refusing to sing by claiming you cannot hear anything. Singing is the one thing where people are largely consistent about it being terrible. I don't think people have forgotten about Rosanne Barr's rendition of the...

    Mariah Carey

    In his defense, he acknowledged his error and poked fun at himself and "played along" if you will. An odd error, but an innocent one comparitively. One might say he handled it professionally. Mariah did not.

    Why does Disney make it hard for larger families?

    For us, whether we are a family of 3 or 23, the deductible is the same. So when I complain about it, my family size is irrelevant. Because it is pretty darn high regardless.
