ParticipantAs a spray for small ant issues, a mixture of 1qt water, 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon dish soap works like crazy. They die in their tracks, and I don’t mind using it in the kitchen. It’s not a fix, but at least it can cut the problem down until you figure out where they are coming from.
Participant[quote=no_such_reality]Good article. I use amazon a lot and have tracked them since inception. I’ve never understood why amazon was allowed to practice predatory pricing for years before raising prices after crippling many competitors.
Sure that wasn’t their story line, but price rise was obvious from the start.[/quote]
When you say predatory pricing, do you mean it in the antitrust way (selling below cost) or in the “it doesn’t seem fair” way?

ParticipantEven super babies usually like the packaging better than the toy. That being said – this toy was always a hit: http://www.hasbro.com/en-us/product/playskool-explore-n-grow-busy-ball-popper:914499FA-6D40-1014-8BF0-9EFBF894F9D4
July 13, 2015 at 12:36 AM in reply to: Elderly Parents Having Contractor Problem – NEED ADVICE #787932ParticipantParticipantWhat kind of rent would a place like that generate? I’m referring to the monthly rent – not taking into account expenses, taxes, etc.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=spdrun]Depends where in the LA Basin — and if you have a family, you might not care so much about friends. Though you should.[/quote]
Family is more than just spouse and kids.
DNA wise siblings are closer than kids.I like my relatives. I don’t miss opportunities to keep in touch. Even parents’ cousins and their kids.[/quote]
The DNA thing is wrong, if you mean it literally. You share 50% of your DNA with each of your parents, each of your children and each of your full siblings.
Participant[quote=moneymaker]Could not really read the letter in the picture but sounds to me like someone in “the circle” is in the window business.[/quote]
That’s one of the main reasons to be on an HOA – to send work to friends and collect their “gratitude.” I’ll never live in a place with an HOA again if I can avoid it.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi] Americans do have a cowboy mentality.[/quote]
Please explain what you think a “cowboy” mentality is. Europeans love criticizing Americans by calling them cowboys. Do they realize that the Marlboro man was an enormously popular image in the US? Being a cowboy isn’t a negative in most people’s minds. On the other hand, I saw the musical of “Legally Blonde” the other day (school version) which included a song known as “Gay or European”. Here are the lyrics: http://www.nitrolyrics.com/legally-blonde-the-musical_there-right-there-gay-or-european-lyrics.html
There’s a big disconnect between Europe and the US in terms of what is considered masculine/desirable behavior (not sure whether the same applies for what is feminine).
Participant[quote=spdrun] Things like this make me ashamed to be an American.
[/quote]
We’re ashamed that you’re an American, too. Why haven’t you left yet? As I recall you have dual citizenship – you should go wherever that other country is.
ParticipantWe got this one about a year and a half ago. We love it:
Not sure what the background if your decision is – but this one has been reliable ….
Participant[quote=andymajumder]
I am from India and trust me there are lots of really wealthy folks in India. I would say 0.1% of Indians are really wealthy, with net worth at least 10M+, that would be around 1.2M people. [/quote]
I’m not so sure about this, unless things have changed quickly. Last summer there were 14,800 multimillionaires in India (defined as having assets over $10 million U.S.) according to this article: http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-08-06/news/52514243_1_millionaires-india-home-russia-and-india
That would result in a rate of multimillionaires in India of .0012% You are off by a factor of 100.
Participant[quote=FlyerInHi][quote=spdrun]Personally, I’m pulling for high unemployment AND a high min wage in the next recession. People replaced by automation can’t buy homes.[/quote]
I like your anti-establishment views, but you’re a much bigger ass than I am.
Why would you not want all Americans to live well in nice comfortable homes and have decent paying jobs? The rising tides lift all boats.[/quote]
+1. He’s miserable and he loves company.
ParticipantNot sure whether this one was posted here on another thread. The Dad looks like Tom Kean (sp?) from the Blacklist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgecKI8XJ18
