    Yee Haw Bob Sexual Harrassment

    A couple have mentioned it in this thread And I hear it OFTEN in other cases. It's certainly been mentioned in a couple of the situations that are currently in the public eye.

    Yee Haw Bob Sexual Harrassment

    I'm not talking about this from a can charges be brought standpoint, but from a public opinion stance. Statue of limitations isn't helpful for that discussion. But people often say that the incident is too long ago for it to be believable, why didn't the woman come out with the charge earlier...

    Yee Haw Bob Sexual Harrassment

    How long after an "event" do you have to go to the police or put it in the public domain in order to be believable?

    Dyson Animal ball vacuum vs Dyson Animal and Allergy Big Ball vacuum?

    Bought the Animal 2 a month or so ago - think that's the one you're talking about? Got it at on sale at Costco for $299, think it's listed for $499 but Costco normal price is $399. Love it, cannot believe how much suction it has. It gets the dog hair easily but what surprises me is how much...

    Help - Why won't my house sell

    Just because his listings and pictures look better than the other agent doesn't means he's a better realtor than the other agent. It just means he writes better listings and takes better pictures. As you've seen, being a good RE agent involves a lot of other skills and you have no idea if this...

    Help - Why won't my house sell

    If you're going to change realtors shortly, I wouldn't spend any time or $ on painting rooms. Wait until you choose a new realtor and get their feedback on wall color - they can give you very specific advice about what works best. We've found that what we like and think looks good for showing...

    Patagonia Jacket Purchase

    Patagonia.com does a good on-line sale after Christmas (January/early February as I recall). I know this doesn't help for this year but some of the prices are really good. Sign up for email alerts + you'll get notification. Plus they periodically mark things down all the time, so checking on...

    Go in the new Engineering Building - it's right on Prices Fork Rd, the road you should come in on. There's a big Rolls Royce airplane engine hanging in the lobby as you come in. And the meeting rooms are in a pod "hanging" straight ahead of you when you come in. NICE building. This is a...

    Did they still do 30% last year when they weren’t open on Black Friday?

    Patagonia Jacket Purchase

    It was in a card that came from our local store. This is 1st time we’ve gotten something like this directly from the store. Maybe just certain ones are offering it? It’s only good thru the 30th btw..... The 15.% is good. Plus you will get the dividend from it.

    Spirt Question and JetBlue

    Bet you can't really book Spirit that far out on Priceline. As you get further into the purchase process at some point it will tell you it's not available. Priceline (and a few other travel website) are famous for showing a low fare at the beginning and when you get closer to hitting the...

    Patagonia Jacket Purchase

    Do you belong to REI? Right now you get $40 off if you spend $200, but it's only good through the end of October. REI often has a deal to get a gift certificate with you join, amount varies. Costs $20 to join, that's a lifetime cost no charge every year but have to spend $10/year to keep...

    College Visits to NC

    In general, NC state schools are tougher to get into for out of state students. Unlike most other state's state U's, NC limits their OOS admits to 17-18% - vs the more common 30%+. FWIW, UNC-CH is not known as an engineering school - it's the "doctor-lawyer" school in NC. But they should be...

    USA Soccer - Eliminated from 2018 World Cup

    One can hope that this gets Gulati out of the picture. People have been calling for someone new at the top for awhile.... Will be interesting to see what they do on the coaching front. Arena was supposed to be a fairly short term answer until they decided on who was going to take the team for...

    Property / neighbor question

    THIS!!!! We just took down a hedge of 14 Leyland Cypress that were diseased. Think we're the last in the neighborhood to take theirs down. This bush has a rep as being very disease prone, at least in this area. It's not a question of if they'll contract something but when. When we moved in...

    Artificial Christmas trees - any good on-line resources?

    The current sale is supposedly 40% off but of course the ones that fit my needs are only 20-25% off which isn't at lot at their price point...

    Artificial Christmas trees - any good on-line resources?

    My issue is width not height. Need no wider than 45", we have small rooms and the tree just can't stick out too far. There are quite a few "pencil" trees that are 6-8' but something like 37" wide. They are too thin imho, the aspect ratio seems off and they look really fake because of it...

    Artificial Christmas trees - any good on-line resources?

    Generally I would agree. But I need a specific size that isn't available much in stores, or at least wasn't last year. May not be able to wait and shop for a good deal, might be doing well to find what I need and be happy. NOT my preferred way to shop :)

    Artificial Christmas trees - any good on-line resources?

    Unfortunately not an option. Pitched it after last Christmas. Half the lights didn't work so no point in saving it Good suggestion though!
