How much did the handyman charge?

doubt few, if any, have ever recovered money from a fly by night contractor

It was the client that got arrested. I'm an electrical contractor. The project was remodeling a commercial space for an insurance office. When it was done, he didn't pay any of us our final draws. We all filed theft of services charges, and felonies were discovered during the investigation. He got three years in jail for the felonies but got out after 18 months.

Very common.


That's the game for many contractors sadly

For every story like this, there are dozens of times the contractor gets fricked over. It's not like contractors are just flush with cash constantly and can absorb hits like that all the time.

If you think the lawyers seem useless for your friends, try filing theft of services charges or liens. I've never received payment from a lien, and only one arrest from filing charges against a client. That only happened because several other contractors filed charges, and the investigation uncovered other crimes. I still didn't get paid, tho.
The amount of posters simping for KR on this site for a three game tournament is pretty sickening. frick that guy and frick his terrible product. The season doesn't hang on one weekend and no weekend is worth an annual subscription.

Can't drink all day if you don't start early
Missed the game today, but just watched the highlights. If you watched it, I'm sure there's a lot of drama missing. I will say that 8 minute clip seems to capture how tight and gritty the game had to have been. I'd embed it, but it looks like it's restricted.

Telemedicine is the answer

If they remove some of the restrictions. I've had an albuterol inhaler for years but telemedicine only allows for 3 prescription refills a year. That's really annoying. They've recently come out with an OTC inhaler but it isn't albuterol and doesn't work as well.

In Texas, prices for land along U.S. Route 67 near Dallas, which three years ago sold for between $20,000 to $40,000 an acre, have jumped to more than $350,000 an acre

Damn. My in-laws sold about 100 acres right on 67 a couple of years ago.

What can the Texas men here tell me about James Talarico

progs are disguising themselves as conservatives

The biggest tell is the TV ads that seem to be targeting other Dem candidates, but also refrain from mentioning that the commercial is also for a Dem candidate. They intentionally skirt around the party affiliation. Dead giveaway.
Her TV ads she's been running non-stop on DFW stations are pure AI. They even have an anime angry Trump and what I assume is Japanese writing at the end of them. No actual message, just OMB and look at how diverse this fake crowd is

Guidry working fast. Seems like he's pitching by the time it hits 15 on the clock

Perfect opportunity to show Jay what he can do for us next year

Was it Dardar that got CJJ's attention by homering off Anderson last year?
