re: LSWA Football Week 3 High School Poll

[quote]The Mandeville/Curtis score shocked me when I first saw it. And to see that they had the shoot-out with Rummel, I think that Rummel should be top-10 while Mandeville should have a few votes too.[/quote]
Mandeville has a very good team, mostly due to its offense. Had 500+ yards in offense ...

I respectfully disagree. Here's the best helmet in CFB: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zfai0H7c8io/SGwKoAW2QuI/AAAAAAAABOY/h1e10-U9nRo/s400/SMU+Helmet.jpg...

[quote]I don't much like Lance. I think he's an arrogant douchebag who spent a good portion of his career bullying the peloton. I'm a cycling fan, but I don't love Lance. I tend to like the crazed climbers than the methodical planners. Give me Chiappucci, not Indurain. I know tactical guys tend to w...

Not a punk move for the following reasons:
1. the problem was Schleck's own fault, not bad luck (he flubbed the shift--it wasn't a mechanical failure);
2. It was a critical time in the race;
3. Contador followed the third and fourth-placed riders - he couldn't afford to sacrifice any ...

Russian - you're right, but... The depositor/account holder is the customer, not the payee, and the bank is obligated to honor a draft drawn on its depositor's account. In fact, it can't refus...

Nothing in the La. version of the NIL that permits this. If it's not in the contract, it's not allowed, particularly where, as here, there is a schedule of charges listed in your deposit agreement.
Windshield argument doesn't work for me because you're the actor and you're the only one affected....
re: Cashing a REGIONS check at a Regions bank

Your check is an order to your bank to pay the presenter. To the extent the presenter has to pay ($5, let's say) he has been shortchanged by having accepted your check in payment. He may then seek to recover the $5 from you, or otherwise refuse to accept your check. After all, he doesn't have to ...

LSUD -- You're probably okay if it the interior work was completed in 2009. Imports of Chinese drywall had ended by then, I believe. I should have qualified my statement by stating a range of 2005-2007. 2008 may be iffy....

re: Home Inspectors

TTiger, most recently, I've seen $500-750 for a basic inspection. Haven't seen what a drywall inspection would run, but it would probably be much more, if destructive and/or chem testing were involved. Most would have to farm this part out to a lab, hence the upcharge....
re: Home Inspectors
Posted by PresterJohn on 12/23/09 at 10:54 pm
Read the disclaimer language in the home inspection contract and/or report. Typically, if a home inspector misses something, your recovery is limited to the amount that you paid him. Not worth much, IMO. If you're looking for drywall issues, have him take samples. Better yet, make sure that you,...
re: Cashing a REGIONS check at a Regions bank
Posted by PresterJohn on 12/23/09 at 10:46 pm
The check is the checking account holder's order to the bank to pay the person identified on the check. The bank's refusal to honor that demand unless it collects a fee is a breach of the bank's agreement with the account holder. Please tell me what law relieves the bank of this obligation. (Note...
