Had jury duty this week and felt like I wasted a lot of time. I was there for two days, sitting around while I suppose the case was attempting a plea bargain. In the 11th hour, that is what happened. Case settled. So, approximately 100 people sat around for two days. Oh well, they only pay us $5.00 anyway. Not even worth my gas.

I found this article on a website called ’Legalize Marijuana’. Let me know what you think!!

Legalize Marijauna
The debate over the legalization of Cannabis sativa, more commonly known as marijuana, has been one of the most controversial issues ever to occur in the United States. Its use as a medicine has existed for thousands of years in many countries worldwide and is documented as far back as 2700 BC in ancient Chinese writings. Marijuana should be legalized for several reasons. First, the government could earn money from taxes on its sale. Its value to the medical world outweighs its potential abuse, and because of its importance to the paper and clothing industries. Legalization should be considered despite efforts made by groups, which say marijuana is a harmful drug that will increase crime rates and lead users to other more dangerous substances.

Has anyone ever used LegalZoom for legal advise? I have an idea I want to patent, but am not sure what to do. I don’t want to spend too much money, since my idea is just that, an idea. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

Watch your bank account and credit card online very closely. I found some errors in my bank account and fees that were not correct.

Make sure you have a will, especially a living will. If you should evr become incapacitated, your family will know what your wishes are. A friend recently shared that her father was seriously ill and his living will made it so much easier on the family, they knew what he type of treatment he wanted for his health care. If you love your family, this document is priceless.

Do you think people that are given public assistance should be drug tested?
Do you also think that if a women has more than one child, they should be cut off?
How can we continue supporting these people.

There is a little known law that if a company pays their bills and then files for bankruptcy, if you were one of the payees you can be forced to give back the funds. What this amounts to is that the company filing bankruptcy could pick and choose who to pay and could have paid someone in an attempt to hide some funds. Doesn’t seem fair to me if you do work and get paid fair and square that you would have to return money.

I hear the cameras on our company issued laptops are going to be activated. I think this is an invasion of privacy for anyone to see what I am doing in my own home. As long as I am working what do they care what I am wearing.

has anyone on here been or going through emotional/mental abuse? I am, and I’m having a difficult time with it. It is my husband, he controls, manulapitates, decieves me and others. He’s the ’Mr. Nice Guy to others, but I know his true nature. He has filed for divorce after I left him only 3 weeks. Had to come back after 6 months, no money, car broke. I left him twice. Last time I went to the YWCA, slept in my car in 10 degree weather, stayed with some friends, etc. He tried to have me evicted for no reason, calling the police and lying about me. After the officer left, they were good friends, and told me not to ever call them because I had a ppo against him but came back. I know I have to get a lawyer, but no money. I have a son that will be deployed in November, but due to my husbands lies about me, my son does not want to see me before he leaves. I had to ’buy’ my way into his wedding in June. Haven’t seen him since. My youngest, 15yo is getting into a lot of trouble and of course pot, drinking, sneeking out of the house. I had a lawyer that rolled over on me. After the hearing she had the documents that I had to sign if I agreed, but she turned them over, wrote out the spousal support I should get, turned it to the last page, told me to hurry and sign before he comes out (due to the ppo). Found out later that it wasn’t her motion, his lawyer wrote it up. I signed over the house, the car, and my custody of my son, temporarily. I now live with my ’husband’ in the same house. He’s making me move to the basement while his lawyer is motioning for legal separation, temporary until the divorce goes through. I don’t have any legal protection, and can’t afford it since he controls the money and I can’t work due to disability. Trying to get assistance for my disability, but takes a long time. All the while he does whatever he wants to me. BTW, the judge dismissed the ppo since I missed two court dates I was not aware of, but he was. I’m sure he through away the mail I was supposed to get for it. Is there ANYONE out there that can help me? Please. Due to his abuse I tried to commit suicide in April, then 3 days later my mom died. If anyone out there can help me, please contact me - email - joyburrows@ymail.com.
