    If they send a summary of your property LOOK AT IT CLOSELY!
    1. listed as a contemporary
    No a modified A frame , which assesses lower
    2. They STILL have our garage listed at 2x' s the actual footage.
    We fought this last time and they still haven't changed it
    3. They have us listed as natural gas.
    There is no natural gas in this area it's all propane required.
    I'm going down next week to demand a viewing of our file. This should have all the info from last battle and pics and the two paid independent assessments we got. The twit gave me more ammo and she's about to feel the sting.

    What is the over under on gallons of boat gas I go thru this weekend? I will have 18 gallons in the tank and another 6 gallons on standby. I am predicting at least another 12 gallons.

    I just don't need another banking holiday yet. Need to spread them out more...

    We just had Memorial Day and we're only 3 weeks from Independence Day. There's a big gap between President's Day until Memorial Day. Stick one in there. Make April Fool's Day a national holiday; since we're largely a nation of Fools and all.

    42 gallons, and a promise to come back Independence Day weekend, so 72 gallons in total. It won't double because a few of your sons friends are going to be reluctant to participate Independence Day weekend after taking heed to your subtle "hints".

    :lol:

    Not sure if Canada still does this since it continues to become more and more leftist stupid, but, when I was a kid Good Friday and Easter Monday used to both be national holidays. A four day weekend during that time of year was always great.

    as a Midwest kid growing up in the 80s, our Spring Break always started on Good Friday then went thru the following week.
    Sometime around when I went to college they moved it up so that Easter Sunday was in effect the last day of Spring Break.

    But it was just a local thing, not a national banking holiday or anything. As an adult, that stretch of no holidays from mid February- Memorial Day seems to take forever.

    I realize how whiny this sounds especially to the self employed; but hey it's the Rant Thread. Don't wanna hear people complain then go over to the BTIL thread.

    I hide the regular gas out in the shed, boat gas is clearly visible in the garage. I am going to have to be the boat driver simply can not trust inexperience/drunkeness with other boats on the lake.

    Ok I agree BUT...watch the conservative twins on the subject . They hit the nail on the head concerning this subject.
    I wish I couldn't but can't from this.

    to be clear, I think it's worth celebrating.

    I just want them to spread the holidays around a bit.

    I do have to say it went well this weekend, my Son made sure everything was put away even the coolers are empty. They all left before noon that was a bonus.

    Do what Doc says BUT start asking question AND do your own research. Certain supplements ,vitamins/ minerals can help reduce BP. Also cutting certain foods. I'm now off meds with weight loss and supplements. Dr. Appt. Wednesday so will see how that's going.
