RP detectives - a puzzle for you all
Comments (13)Thank you all for participating. Yes, the western Pennsylvania bit was a deliberate clue from long ago. Rouan and I don't really see ourselves as being all that much alike. From within a family, you tend to see the differences, not the similarities. I like dogs, she prefers cats; I like books with sad endings, she hates them; I grow roses, she grows herbs. By the way, there are three more sisters and a brother. None of the others are on the forum, though, so there are no more surprises lurking. Pat, thank you for being brave and going first. Nothing ventured... And thank you, Janalyn. I'll tell our parents you said so....See MoreCalling All Plate Detectives....
Comments (5)Well, I just went back to replacements and lo and behold, that is the pattern name and they have none. But they do have pictures of all four of my plates, so perhaps they've had them in the past. Off to eBay, etsy and Ruby Lane! Gardenweb-----the source of all knowledge! Thank you again, P&H and Fori!!!...See MoreCalling all color experts!!
Comments (4)Will BM White Dove walls (matte) and trim (satin) work with SW Pure White ceilings? Pure White will probably look a little more gray than you expect on the ceiling but it still works with WD. Also, will Farrow and Ball Cromarty kitchen cabinets work with this white color combo? It breaks my rule of thumb that the *white* trim color needs to have less chroma than the wall color in order to be perceived and crisp and clean. Doesn't mean White Dove and Cromarty doesn't work; they naturally harmonize in terms of hue because they belong to the same hue family. Just means you need to sample, test and make sure the combo is the look/vibe you're after....See MoreInteresting call from a detective in Waco about our old car
Comments (16)Annie, I believe Mtn. is right. If I did a private sale I could be liable for damages, but with a dealership I'm pretty sure we're safe, especially after three years and I already gave the detective all info. I'm sure there's a paper trail someplace. Besides, if I could be in trouble I'm sure he would have told me. He was just shocked the dealer's name wasn't anywhere on the title saying it was "transferred" or whatever. Arcy, the legal system isn't as black and white as you suggest. I'm a 100% positive this has happened many many times, and if the person traded at a dealership, that's even better. LOL Dlm! He alluded to the car being in a bad neighborhood & I'm sure there was suspicious goings on for him run a check on the car. And I could sort of tell that he may have the perp in custody or the car was involved in a crime. Something was going down to run a check on the car. One time DH & I took a day trip and stopped at a roadside diner in a small town. Our young & chatty waitress started telling us about her sister's recent accident. She was in a parking space changing her baby's diaper in the backseat while she stood in front of the open car door. A teenager who was driving his grandmother's car ran right into the door which shut on her, and she was badly hurt. She did nothing wrong. DH gave the waitress his card, they hired him, and he won a significant settlement for the mom. Don't you lawyers love how some clients just fall into your hands? :) Memo to self. Do not let my grandchildren drive my car when they turn 16....See MoreJ K
