WT.. the girls in your sig.. the one on the right looks like Jeter.... and the one on the left looks pregnant..

1. Cause he wanted to hear the crowd chanting "who's your daddy" 2. "I am the biggest idiot.. ever. "

If I had filed for the exemption all along I wouldn't have either.

Thank you...

I know.. it's weird. I can get into some sports stories.. but nothing dealing with stats. And I can get on here, all day, but WSI only during lunch.

Thanks shuf... Manny anyone..??

Manny makes how much..? And PayRod makes how much..? I can't get onto sports sites here at work until noon .. thanks guys!!

Zero, your avitar skeerrsss me..

So why not make your point without calling the guy "a son of a b****"..? Would you like it for us to call your mom a b****?

Eye.. the assessor let me go back 3 years and get the refund. You have to go there in person though and fill out the exemption forms which was a pain in the ass cause I had to go all the way to the county building downtown... but for Will county I think that's just in Joliet. I'd try again if I were you. It was well worth it for me. It was about $700 per year. And I agree that the mortgage companies should say something. Although they are making $$ of your $$ sitting in escrow so I can see why they wouldn't. Edit.. whoops, I thought you said Will, not Lake..

He offered to do my closing..

It's not the buyers fault, and if I started a pissing contest to prove who's right, he'd be the one to suffer. It's good enough them knowing they effed up.

I did contact a new attny.. and I can hold them liable. But it's not a big deal. I got the $$ twice, and it's not mine. I have no interest in waging a war over a couple grand. The assessors's office is also involved as they should have issued a credit to the buyer, and they didn't. Then they would have called me for the money and I'd have had to send them a check versus the buyer. I'd rather deal with the buyer. Just aggrevating. And greasy.. I'm sure they are not all stupid. The one I am working with to close on some more property I bought on the 29th is actually great.

When I sold my townhouse it was brought to my attention that I had not filed for my yearly exemptions.. so that was a nice surprise as I got some extra cash. So now I find out that they OVERPAID me. They gave me the credit, AND they cut me a check. I asked them at the time why.. and they said it was correct. Luckily I figured it wasn't correct and I kept it in the back of my mind that I was going to have to pay the buyer the '03 taxes. I called my attny and she said "oops.." and the title company says.. "hmm.. don't understand how we messed that up.." I mean c'mon folks.. you do this for a living!! How can they be so careless..?? Luckily I planned on sending the guy a check.. I can't imagine someone who had not planned for it getting socked with a letter saying you owe someone a few grand. Morons.. I feel bad for the guy. But at least he was cool about it since I called him first telling him I would be sending him a check.

The binding is perfect. No dog ears in the entire book, and the spine has no "wrinkles". I'd guess the book hasn't been opened more than 50 times. I knew something was up when the lady called security over to lock it up.. but I had no idea. To be honest I had forgotten about it. I didn't even know who the sig was at first. I thought.. "damn.. some idiot ruined it".

Actually the CPL authenticated it with his family. I guess his estate will be sending a COA. I bought it about 2 months ago.. 7 books for $25 at a garage sale.

They only increased XM subscriptions by a few thousand. He ownes them already..

Ahhh, true. I'm not waiting 100 MORE years.. First I have to find out if the value is real. Then I better get it insured.. Maybe I'll sell it. it's kind of a cool thing to have though. Conversation starter at least.

Very nice... if the value I got is for real. Supposedly there are only 6 signed by Twain as Clemens and 4 of them are in his relatives possession. I'm being told it's worth over $20K.... I guess.. it could be. If someone is willing to pay that much. But if it's really worth that I might hang onto it. Imagine what it might be worth 20 years from now...

And you'd be wrong. It's rumored, and not official.. as Tim's "hiring" isn't either. Raffy is still the Sox 1B coach.. at least the check he got from them on the 15th indcates he still is..

Thank you!
