That's not quite the scenario I envisioned. If you're on good terms with the parents that is an advantage. Its unfortunate that you must deal with their lack of control over their child/children. A home surveillance system that is visible could be a possible deterrent to those activities...

Sounds like you may have an HOA and deed restrictions. No parking on the street at certain times or some such tyranny. Perhaps you could feign interest in surveying your neighbors' (those who share your driveway and others in the neighborhood) opinion on changing the parking rules for the...

Some time ago I quit following my Congressman's positions because they were always contrary to mine. You can imagine how surprised I was to see this: Rep. Vern Buchanan. Side note: He pulled weight in the RNC at one time, unsure if this is still the case.

DC Internal Investigators have determined that the officer piloting that boat was obviously under a spell being cast by the foreign videographer.

Kerry ripPing pages from his notepad, rubbing his face and tugging at his collar, Hagel getting ignored, and Dempsey declining to speak, presumably because he as a General couldn't deny bombing is an act of war was an awesome 5 minutes of CSPAN all thanks to Rand. Ron Paul and Kucinich were...

Looking back I'm not sure why I thought this. Perhaps I was under the impression that the USDA legislature gave rise to those two agencies. Oh well.

When Lindsey Graham is primaried out of office, normally the connected senator would find himself a cozy lobbying position or join a firm with a nice gov't awarded contract. I want to be sure Lindsey Graham's time playing tyrant on the hill cannot be used to enrich himself further. Cronyism...

Reassured since Mr. Valluzzo's behavior prompted officers to use lethal force once on the scene, saving his girlfriend from x.

I have trouble enjoying movies where I have to ignore the stupidity in order to have a story. That guy presumably spent a lot of money to fortify his house (for good reason) and the system can be disarmed by his preteen daughter slapping a screen.

I'd park there too. If I wore that costume, I wouldn't cite fellow riders for parking where ever they wanted as long as it didn't interfere with normal foot traffic or cause danger to pedestrians getting on the sidewalk to that spot. So far I've been given the same treatment from those who do...

Confused constituents campaigning for a caring man because someone craftily compressed completely changing conditions on twenty percent of the US economy into a single buzzword.

While being all for property rights, it is not my job to subsidize one's ability to screen and trust those who get invited to a property. If the issue is with permission to be on the property at all, there are trespass laws. If the issue is damage to reputation due to videotaping, civil action...

Similar bill in TN. ETA: I recently became aware of Tyson's influence over Arkansas politicians, especially the Clinton's.

I've seen this photo several times and only now did I notice the old guy in the foreground... Nam vet is obviously unfazed.

If you unplug the small wire under your seat, that may do the trick.
