If 3 patrol cars speed through town with lights flashing and sirens blaring anytime anyone needs a manager's phone number, that's even worse, sheriff.

Over a freaking whopper! This was totally an abuse of power. I'd love to see what happened to make the employees feel so unsafe that they'd lock the doors.

Stalking. It was a typo.

If someone is attempting to use her card, maybe it's time to talk to police? That's illegal, right?

His mom is in assisted living, not a nursing home. My mom is also in assisted living. She's got a stove in her apartment, she can cook her own meals if she wants to! Until recently, she could drive herself to Walmart if she felt like it. She has decorated her apartment in her own style because--get this--it's her home!!

Plus he hasn't said one thing about pointing a camera at his mother's bathroom!

It is her home. How disheartening to see you think it isn't.

Do not give your senior pet to an animal rescue. I think the mental anguish they'd experience they'd suffer from feeling abandoned would hurt them so, so much.

Do your best. Talk to your vet and ask for guidance.

We all face this, eventually. It is hard to face that our cherished pet is aging, but it's our duty to see them through.

I do not know where I got this from, but I thought all dogs were male and all cats were female. I thought this while I had a dog named Betsy and a cat named Sebastian.

If that's not bad enough on its own, I think I was in first or second grade when I learned the surprising truth. I wasn't a dumb kid, either. I learned to read when I was about 3.5 yrs old and started 1st grade as a 5 yr old.

I'm now in my 70s and I still can't figure out where I got that from!

My gastro uses propofol. When they wake you up, you are wide awake. No stoned as balls over here, alas.

So, I've got a theory. She killed her pup not because it upset her by scattering the birds she hunted, but because it embarrassed her in front of the neighbors when it killed their chickens. Cricket wouldn't listen to her and it made her feel publicly ineffectual and weak. Being made to feel that way absolutely enraged her.

She's a massive POS and I really hope this ends her career.

So they'll be hoisted by their own petard, and they will deserve it.

I think you can sue the estate, but the executor follows the parameters of the will.

IANAL, so grain of salt.
