I just registered to this site after being a long time lurker to respond to your request. Just purchased an aeropress coffee machine and for about $35 it will meet all your requirements. Read the reviews on it, you won't regret the purchase. Best coffee you'll ever make hands down with 10 sec clean up, no on off switch to worry about because it's all manual using no electricy (other than getting heated water). It makes espresso type coffee that you can use as a base for lattes and cappuccinos too as well as a good cup of Americano coffee. Rivals coffee made at Starbucks and other gourmet shops. Everyone in your household can make their own coffee to their liking when they want to and at whatever temperature they wish. So portable you can take it camping, travelling or keep at your office desk. Best purchase I've made in a while. Five stars on amazon.com

Having moved from one state to another more than 15 times I have repeatedly run into this situation. First of all, the address on the vehicle registration MUST BE the primary address of the ownner of said vehicle. If the owner of said vehicle moves from one state to another they normally have 30 days to change the vehicle registration, although there are exceptions to that rule. By example, in the State of Florida it is common for people to primarily live up north, but they have a second seasonal domicle where they winter in Florida. The law in Florida says that if the primary owner is employed or has children registered in school in Florida, then they have established Florida as their primary residence and are required to change the vehicle registration within 30 days, but if they are not employed or have no children in school in Florida, then they claim their Florida address as a temporary domicile for up to one year. Note that the registration remains with the owner and is to be listed at the owners primary residence or place of business. In this case the owner is not changing residence so the vehicle registration must remain the same as the owners primary residence. However it also must be mentioned that if you loan a vehicle to someone and they are stopped by the police for any reason, the person operating that vehicle can be held in custody as a suspected auto theif until the police can confirm that they have legal permision to be operating that vehicle. You should check with your insurance company. Under most insurance policies if you permit others to repeatedly use your vehicle you are required to have that person listed as an additional driver on the policy. You should also know that if your daughter should be stopped by law enforcement for any reason they will automatically run the license plate to see what the owners name & address is. When they then check the operators drivers license and it does not match the owners informtion the cop could hold the operator as a suspected car theif until they can get confirmation that the operator has legal permission to operate that vehicle. I would write a letter granting the daughter permission to use the vehicle and have that letter notorized.

I think the important thing about my post is not to put your address in the unit. I don't have any documentation in my car at all with my addy on. I keep everything in my purse. I have the sand-baggie thing as well. We've yet to use it, 'cause so far we've been together when we needed the GPS, and I play around with it, and hold it, instead of having it on the dash. And gets thrown into the glove-compartment when we leave the car. These, XM radios and cellphones....there is always something out in the open for thieves to steal.

kkny, This thread was starting (and I referred to the other thread because that was where you wrote the line I thought was judgmental on your part) but I wasn't clear in my original post. I have quoted the line that I meant from that thread and I thought it is ridiculous that you are basically saying that SM's have a double standard regarding responsibility when you apparently have never made a mistake, except letting your registration expire. Maybe you are more perfect than I thought, so I apologize for thinking you might have ever done anything wrong or that your DD was a normal teenager with problems that normal teenagers have, I guess I am wrong there too. It must be nice to have a teenage girl that doesn't get moody, talk back occasionally, or do anything wrong, except get B's. Now, I envy you a little. We all have a right to express our opinions and disagree. It is more about the personal attacks against moral character. and I don't think your profession (or socioeconomic status), regardless of what it is, has anything to do with deserving to express your opinion, but perhaps it has been the way you write "I'm a professional" that makes it sound like you are saying you are better than the next person that isn't a "professional", when your being a professional has nothing to do with your opinions on step families. Some of the sleaziest criminals were "professionals" but that didn't make them better than the honest guy picking up garbage for a living. My careers have had some direct influence on my opinions because it's what I have experienced that caused me to have the opinions I have. And it's also my life experiences that I have learned from that formed my opinions, so that is why I have shared them. I made mistakes many years ago and I'm not the same person, I have learned and grown from it. I've been very open and honest about my life. I don't see that you are as open and honest, yet you lump SM's into a group and judge. finedreams, I don't think you were told not to talk about children, but if you only have one (that is problem free) and you use her as an example, then you should realize also that all kids are different. If you work with kids or have other experiences, then use that as an example. and I agree with you on cheating, it is never right. Is it really necessary to personally attack each other?
