old student org

Tue, 02 Mar 2010 00:58:41 GMT

Does anyone remeber what that student organization was that focused on sex education and gave away condoms... I don't think they had been in opperation since 2006 or so, but they shared an office with Take Back the Night, FMLA, and probably a few others.

Parking Enforcement Nazi

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 12:13:23 GMT

Apparently the parking enforcement fascist likes to go around and make threats to people who challenge his authority. This jackass threatened to call cops and have me arrested for calling him a jackass and proceded to tell me that he knows my name, where I live and would give me a ticket even if I was legally parked to teach me a lesson about fucking with the person and said that he is above the law. I guess since 9/11? its okay to push people around under the ruse of national security and god forbid, we can't have any dissent whatsoever. Anyway if you had a run-in with this person? His badge Number is 019 and the complaint line is 845-255-1332.

make them dog friendly

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 19:10:20 GMT

I used to bring my corgi into MuddyCup back when they were the one place that were dog friendly, they pretty much changed their policy so they're not so dog friendly now, I found a way I can still bring my dog in without much grief, and it works for any business.
just buy a personalized service dog tag to put on their collar, they're easy to get offline, pretty cheap, and if anyone makes a fuss, you can just point to the tag, and they have to let you in. far as the legality goes, they legally can't ask for proof, and really just have to take your word for it, but the tag makes things much easier.
there's already a few people in town who've done this, it woks great

free furniture!

Thu, 23 Jul 2009 16:24:58 GMT

So my landlord has informed us that we are to get rid of all our furniture... even the stuff that was there when we moved in.

So I have a dresser up for grabs, today and tomorrow. 36" wide, 18" deep, 43" high. Four drawers; none of them stick, but the top one is missing a handle on the left side. It's a blond colored wood, with some light green paint on the edged of the drawers; not really noticeable.

The dresser is free, but you'll have to move it down two flights of stairs either today or friday.

Shoot me an email and I'll give you the address: CyhiraethX7(at)yahoo(dot)com

ps: I also have a shelf thing, a nightstand, and a stool up for grabs!

Mon, 20 Jul 2009 18:25:23 GMT

Thanks in advance!

KITTEN IN NEED OF GOOD HOME

Tue, 12 May 2009 01:02:15 GMT

Hi, I've been taking care of this kitten for the past 8 months. Originally, one of my friends was supposed to take him by the end of the school year when he moved into an apartment...but that never happened. He gets along with other cats, knows the commands, "come", "no" and sometimes "down", is very playful (he loves socks and playing in the bathtub for some reason), is litterbox trained, loves to snuggle at night and purring...he's the sweetest little thing, and I want him to go to a good nurturing home since my friend cannot take him anymore.

If you or anyone you know is interested email me for more information:

Dell Dimension 4600 + 19inch flat monitor for 150$ and banjo for 150$

Sun, 03 May 2009 05:04:17 GMT

Hi everyone,
I'm selling my desktop computer, a Dell Dimension 4600 + 19inch flat screen monitor for 150$. The specs are: Pentium 4 2.40GHz/256MB/40GB
I live in the village so you can come by and check it out if you are interested.

I bought this Prust tackhead back in January for 200$ and I'm selling it now for $150. It's a great banjo, an excellent gateway to fretless playing. I'm selling it in order to buy a more expensive fretted banjo (the Prust is currently my only banjo.) The banjo is strung with nylguts. I don't have photos on hand but it looks exactly as Prust advertises them: http://www.chloesgarden.com/Banjos%20on%20Web/Prust%20Banjos/Tackhead.htm
I use the banjo in all the songs on on my myspace: www.myspace.com/terrydignon.
