Port Orange HOA Tells Residents Yard Statues Aren't Allowed {AOL Real Estate}
Apr 6th 2013 5:03AM I lived in a small Italian village whose local "Commune" or community 'government' dictated what colors one could paint front doors, gates, how many flower pots were safe for front porches, what materials could be used for roofing etc. etc. much the same as HOAs...the local commune had political affiliations...they were Communists...nt figuratively, literally. They were voted in members of The Communist Party...I find that HOAs lean more toward the FASCIST side but...just sayin
Bill McMachen of Michigan Buys Hundreds of Foreclosed Properties, Dirt Cheap {AOL Real Estate}
Aug 3rd 2012 10:59PM It's the sad way Capitalism now works in America...it's actually always been this way, just more rich to get richer (and not have to pay their fair share of taxes) and the poor get poorer (and have to be mandated to buy things they can't afford like healthcare) What a SAD country we have become! CEO'S STILL making huge bonuses after we bail them out, 627 homes lost in one county alone, unemployment UP because Congress has to play politics with a President they won't support (or a public they WON'T help with infrastructure jobs and cuts benefits and proposals that WILL create jobs)... It's a good thing there are men and women who BUY the PR that it's WORTH defending...

Bizarre baby names: banned in New Zealand {Gadling}
Jul 22nd 2011 1:39AM When a nation or nation's government begins dictating what one MAY or MAY NOT name their offspring, it ceases to become a free or Democratic nation.
New Zealand is one of the few "free" countries I have not visited and always wanted to visit...NOT ANY MORE. My tourist dollars will go elsewhere...where people are free to choose to name their children Ludwig or Joe however THEY choose. I happen to have two friends named BISHOP and I love them dearly and I will not visit any country who doesn't respect their name...as people should respect New Zealanders' names such as FLEUR (a New Zealand poet) or BASIL Dowling (another New Zealand poet) REIMKE Ensing...New Zealand seems to be a giant pot calling a kettle black....
How to Navigate Washington, D.C. Without Going Nuts {Gadling}
Jul 16th 2011 5:31PM What a crock! This bike company is AWFUL! A TOTAL waste of money because you are CHARGED for the time you spend looking for a station to get rid of the damn thing asap...
D.C.'s metro is the best I've ever taken! efficient, easy to use, goes EVERYWHERE, fast, cheap to use and amazingly CLEAN!!! Tourists (except maybe college kids who want to BIKE in that heat) beware of this misleading article...it was obviously 'lobbied' by the bike company and "you'll be sorry"...TAKE the Metro!

'Raising Hope' Actor Garret Dillahunt Sneaks Knife Through TSA, Tweets About It {PopEater}
Jun 28th 2011 12:22AM Perhaps he was trying to make a point that TSA should focus their attention on the people who REALLY DO have weapons instead of stripping 95 year old ladies of their DIAPERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Expert: Roger Ebert's Own Ailments May Have Desensitized Him {PopEater}
Jun 22nd 2011 1:16AM I'm disturbed when celebrities set examples for young people by drinking, taking pictures of it , tweeting it, then getting in a car and literally killing another human being...I'm grateful there wasn't another car on the road when Dunn decided to throw responsibility, his intelligence and rational sense out the window and drive 130 MPH after drinking. THAT's what his friends SHOULD be pissed about, NOT that Mr. Ebert called it like it IS and warned America's youth that actions like Dunn's is the REASON he died and to PLEASE not think of him as "cool" or even "acceptable".
