I believe FT has been suspended for whacking for too long on there. He can probably help you out.

I get a warning and for a set amount of time I can't share photos to my groups because they look at it as "spamming." I've hit the button stating I don't agree and explained I was sharing photos on groups and nothing has ever come of it. I just wait a certain amount of time and start sharing again.

My son wants to go to the Blue Jays game in New York in September and the Maple Leafs game in DC in November. If all 3 of us go, we're looking at $900 just for tickets. When the heck did games get so expensive?

Maybe I set a world record today. I'm going to claim that I did.

We are set to go this year and so far no personal problems that would prevent us. Superstitiously I felt there was a reason something always prevented us from going so something bad wouldn’t happen. Our flight is scheduled for 9/11 and just being on a plane on that date doesn’t sit well with me. I will not cancel but just realize if anything happens this is all on my wife as I never really wanted to go to Alaska in the first place but being a loving husband I figured she’s done enough things with me that she didn’t want to do so I will just go and hopefully everything goes smooth.
I'm sure everything will be fine.
I visited Alaska what I was 20 as my best friend was stationed at Elmendorf AFB.
Want to go back with the life experience I now have.

Wife's friend went earlier this year on a cruise and loved it.

Every time we discuss a cruise there is a story of 400 people getting sick on one and my wife bails.

As for 9/11. Somber day but I wouldn't worry about it.

I wonder why the people think that government is inefficient at BEST.

I Just filed my FIFTH weekly claim for unemployment and have received ZERO benefits yet.

ALL my claims say PENDING - This week is not being paid while an issue is resolved.

I called the unemployment office and spoke to a gentleman.

Me- Hi do I to do have anything on my end as I have yet to receive any benefits and my pending claims say "This week is not being paid while an issue is resolved."

UI Mike- No sir everything looks good on my end.

Me- So why does it say "This week is not being paid while an issue is resolved."

UI Mike- No sir everything looks good on my end.

Me- OK UI MIke so then do you know what the holdup is?

UI Mike (Who shall be known as Feces Throwing Simian from here on out- No sir everything looks good on my end BUT claims can take up to 21 days.

Me- OK Mike it's been 28 day and the last time I checked 28 is greater than 21.

Feces Throwing Simian- I guess so but everything looks good on my end.

Me- So there is nothing I need to do on my end and YOU say EVERYTHING looks good on your end, right Mike?

FTS- Yes sir.

Me- So Mike is there anyway I can find out when I might receive my 1st or ANY payment?

FTC- No there is no way I can tell you that.

Me- Well Mike I am going to hang up and call next week because my frustration and rage should be taken out on someone that is higher on the food chain than you. Have a nice day. (and I hang up.)

I will call tomorrow and ask for some other poop thrower higher up the food chain.

At our meeting today, it was brought up that a project was behind schedule and we needed additional resources to get it on track. I pull the the email I sent JULY 1ST saying we needed to get those resources ready. I replied all “now it has become a problem.”
