    How does it make you feel when a rookie is called up and fills in admirably for a...

    I don't have any strong feelings on the topic. Good players will get their chances sooner or later. Sure, circumstances might mean their chances come later, but they will come.

    which is better? It all makes me wanna scream?

    Short sale is always better. It shows that you at least made an effort to repay your loan, even if you weren't able to repay the whole thing, its better than if you just walk away and dump the entire problem on the bank by letting them foreclose. In a short sale the bank may ask you to pay...

    anybody know about chevy venture vans?

    I have a 2000 Oldsmobile silhouette which is pretty much the exact same van. I had the exact same problem.

    I have broadband internet. My parents live very very close to me. I estimate the approximate straight line distance from the corner of my house to the corner of their house to be about 600-700feet. Are there any wireless routers that would cover this distance without constantly dropping the...

    Secure your network and don't give him the password. I would immediately respond to the letter. Write a polite letter describing what you just said.
