Las Vegas Homeowners Association Scandal Claims 4th Victim {AOL Real Estate}
Mar 31st 2012 8:48PM I went to war with my HOA, and the battle ended up on the local television news station. The HOA was trying to force people to water their lawns during a severe drought, when the local government pleaded for everyone to conserve water, and I wouldn't turn on the sprinkler.

Trouble Blooms: Condo Board Sues Resident Over Flowers {AOL Real Estate}
Mar 20th 2012 9:01PM People who normally have no authority, and are granted two ounces of authority, immediately think they run the ocean. So many of these HOA and condo board members become members of the Gestapo.

A light sleeper's lament: six things you shouldn't do in a hotel {Gadling}
Jan 14th 2012 3:15PM A few hotels are now calling you up three hours before check out to let you know that you have to check out in three hours. One place called us up at 9:00am, then 10:00am, then 11:00am, and then at noon. When we weren't down in the lobby at 12:15pm, the man at the front desk came up to the room and threatened to kill me and my girlfriend. When I opened the door to let him try it, he ran off...

Obese passenger forces neighbor on US Airways flight to stand for 7 hours {Gadling}
Nov 24th 2011 12:31AM That happened to me, but I was able to move to another seat. If it was a full flight, I would've been forced to stand for my five hour flight or simply leave the aircraft. Since I have a serious spinal injury, that would've been my only option.

Nov 1st 2011 3:11PM While in Houston, I asked a TSA employee where the nearest bathroom was. He said he needed to see a boarding pass. I said I wasn't getting on the plane, and he once again asked me to provide a boarding pass. I sarcasitically said, "now you need a boarding pass to sit on a toilet..?"
