Sure, like he'd press charges for assault
Doubt it very seriously. Besides, it'd be worth a night in jail to slug a slimeball like that...
Charges
Phone/internet with Verizon - $51 total/month
Dish Network I think is around $60/month
paypal charges
Is it to late for you to call the company and inform them what has happened to you and ask them to cut you a paper check and then have it cashed somewhere else for a small fee?
The dentist we go to charges
We have insurance. Have you asked your primary care doctor if there is a clinic or something like that to take care of your husband's dental care? It's worth a shot. I had heard something about dentists in training offering cleaning and such for a much cheaper rate. I think the obstacle would be if they found a cavity or whatever. Good luck to you! By the way, we are on the East Coast, so not sure if prices vary by region or not.
The 100K came way after the drug charges
The arrest came say 15 or 20 years before the 100K and the way they spend their money that $100K probably not around too long.
I pay $40.00 for a haircut, color and to get my eyebrows done. She charges $30.00, but I pay her $4

My dentist office charges if you miss - sm
your appt. (or don't call and cancel 24-hours ahead) But they had me sign a paper acknowledging that they told me this and that I agree to the terms. This sounds totally bogus and a scam to boot. Good luck.
Mine charges $12 (shocking!!) only other profession I know of
whose wages have gone down like MTs - and you do not tip if it is the owner of the shop is my understanding
McDonalds charges a $1 dine-in fee if you eat inside.
I don't tip those who bus the tables. I don't tip the person taking my order. I don't feel the need to tip those people - they are making an hourly rate for the job they do and it does not require hardly any skill at all.
Really think court case, child abuse charges
when another mother breastfed her child past a so called normal age. The poster says do not worry about what others think and the kids did not have to wear braces, but what about emotional issues that might come to pass with a 6 year old still on the boob? Most in this country, I am sure, would agree with these posts that you overstepped bounds in a mother-child relationship when this happened. Some things just should not happen.
French Press..
I have never personally had one, but a physician I worked for did and he would grind his own beans every morning and make his own coffee in it, rather than just the regular stuff we drank. I believe I tasted it once and it was very good, stronger than the regular coffee but of course that may depend on the type of beans you grind, etc. He was a coffee-fanitic!
french press
Love mine! I started with a glass one but then found a thermal one which will keep the coffee hot longer.
I have an HP, but and I sort of have to press
out, but I've got it down now. I think I know what you are talking about, but it just sort of pops out, once you press down on it. Then you have to set the new one in there and click it in by pushing it towards the back. I hope this makes sense. Also, I try to say nice things to my printer, so it will act right. This always worked for faulty copiers and fax machines when I worked on-site. People think I'm weird, can you tell? 
Call the Press!
Does your town have a/several TV stations that "investigate" these kinds of scams? TV stations love this kind of stuff, would expose the store in public. (Years ago I did some freelance transcription for an attorney who served as "city attorney," saw her on TV all the time when they showed tapings of the common council meetings here in town. Upon completion of the project I did for her she said she couldn't pay me, that it would take her a few months--or something stupid like that before she'd have the funds. (And, her husband was the city engineer! Never doubted her ability to pay). After two or three weeks of calling her looking for the money I finally sent her a certified letter, a very persuasive note letting her know that maybe the mayor might like to know how she treats her "hired help." She sent the check to me within 2 days of her receipt of the letter.) Moral of the story: Find some bigger weight to throw around. Best of luck to you. (PS: What about the state attorney general--fraud, etc., maybe you're not the only one they've done this to, put together a class action suit. That's a hornet's nest and takes forever though. Then the darned company declares bankrupty. But it's poetic justice even though you didn't recoup your money. They have to quit being crooks.)

Lighthearted Press
This is from the website of Christine Davis, who wrote For Every Dog an Angel, one of the things that helped me through the desolate time after I lost my beloved girldog, Noni.

There may be some ideas about how to talk to your mom in here.
It has been 2 years, I have 2 new dogs who are wonderful, but still. Not a day goes by.
And don't forget to press 1 for English - or is it 2?

Has anyone used a French press coffee maker? sm
if so, did you like it or dislike it? Thanks!
Here is the news from Associated Press on Swayze...Yes, he has cancer, but doing well. sm
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Patrick Swayze's doctor is "optimistic" about his prognosis for battling pancreatic cancer, and the "Dirty Dancing" actor's upcoming cable pilot is still in contention to become a series.
With the writer's strike over, the A&E pilot "The Beast," starring Swayze as an unorthodox FBI agent, is being considered to be turned into a series by the cable network. If that happens, the "Dirty Dancing" and "Ghost" star hopes to continue to be part of the show, his representative Annett Wolf told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Swayze has been undergoing treatment for the disease, Wolf confirmed in a statement. The National Cancer Institute estimates there will be 37,680 new cases of pancreatic cancer in 2008 with 34,290 deaths in the U.S.; only five percent of patients live more than five years after being diagnosed.
"Patrick has a very limited amount of disease and he appears to be responding well to treatment thus far," Swayze's physician Dr. George Fisher said in a statement released by Wolf. "All of the reports stating the timeframe of his prognosis and his physical side effects are absolutely untrue. We are considerably more optimistic."
Wolf said Swayze, 55, shot "The Beast" pilot last December and isn't currently working on any new projects. A&E issued a statement Wednesday stating "The Beast" was still in contention to become one of the network's new original drama series and wished Swayze a speedy recovery.

and he sounded so scripted in the press release
not like it was coming from his heart at all. Am sad for his family. I sure would not have been the adoring wife, on stage with him. She ought to have him ducking and dodging. To whom much is given, much is expected, but he certainly has fallen short. No integrity. Maybe when he hits bottom, he'll look 'up'.
