I've got two loans. When I bought I took what was called and 80-15-5 loan. It is 5% down, an 80% mortgage and a 15% homeequity loan. I have two payments a month, but I save a ton because no PMI. It also saved me cause the 15% equity line also brought my primary mortgage below 300K, so I did not...
A great story was last winter the local (Boston) news stations were all predicting a huge blizzard (up to 2 feet). A newly elected local mayor (not Boston) ordered a snow emergency 12 hours before the snow was supposed to hit. This meant he towed hundreds of cars off of city streets (at the...
Here is what I did to avoid getting spam: I opened up two seperate Yahoo email accounts. One is only given to friends, family and others I can trust. The second one is used when ever I have to supply an email address to someone I do not know or if a website asks for an email address to...
Do you realize that Bagels are just as bad, if not worse, for you than Donuts, stop eating them. And don't replace them with muffins, they are just as bad. Make yourself a couple scrambled eggs and have them with a container of yogurt or some cottage cheese for breakfast, and eat breakfast when...
I would have sworn Sly directed Rocky, but IMDB has proved me wrong. I guess I was thinking Rocky II, still a good movie, but not the same. Sly also losses points for directing Staying Alive, which is among one of the all time worst sequels
What about Sly in Rocky? Starred, Directed, Wrote and Produced. Some people may deride him for other things he has done, but Rocky was a heck of an achievment for a relativly unknown at the time
I would say to hit La Boom and Fat Tuesdays. At Fat Tuesdays get a 191 Octane. it's made with 191 proof grain alcohol and will surely give you night a nice kick to start. A boat ride over to the Isla de Mujeres (Island of Women) is also cool. I've only been there during spring break so I don't...
"Didn't we burn DC in 1812 or around then? and the battle of New Orleans was around the same time before peace was finally declared....?" I am afraid you are mixing up two different wars. As Kirk Said, the American Revolution ended 1781, 8 years before the French revolution and 18 years...
"the mainland was more concerned with fighting Napolean, thats where the best troops went." Huh? The French Revolution wasn't until 1789, how were the best troops sent to fight a ruler who wasn't in power yet. Napolean himself wasn't born until 1769, so I doubt the British empire was much...
Good point about caller ID. Do not attempt to call several times in one day. Try once or twice and then wait a day or so. If you keep on trying and she keeps seeing your ID, she is gonna think your weird.
"how is she going to know you called?" She won't, that's why you call back later. This is actually one of the single most vital rules there is. If you get her on the phone there is a very good chance you can talk her into going out with you again. If you leave a message, you do two things...
I just read through this his whole thread and I have some thoughts. First off, right now I am very happily married to a gorgeous woman who makes significantly more money than I do. I also happen to be about 20lbs overweight, though most woman still say I am in the upper third, looks wise. I...
I remeber a story a couple of years ago of an Indian (i think) boy who Peed flies. Apparently the eggs somehow got up there and when the maggots grew into flies they flew out. This is the best link I could find: http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_beetle_boy.htm
