  1. That's going to be difficult in GMail. They don't really offer a way to export email. There is an app I found while Googling this question, but I don't think that will help either. It is designed to export email from one account to another, and will be in a format that the lawyer probably can't open up, so it will be worthless data.   There are ways to use a dedicated email app, like Outlook, to open GMail, but any other program that offers a way to save the emails to disk, you will have a similar problem. If you are using Thunderbird and they are using Outlook, they won't be able to open your files. You have to be using the exact same email application. And, at least with Outlook, I think you have to save each email to disk one at a time.   I like the idea of printing each email to a .PDF file, but GMail does not offer a way to select multiple emails and print them all. You have to open each email and select print. That will take a long time. I did find this web site that describes an app you can install to Chrome (if you use that browser) and print multiple pages. Not sure of your techiness level, but the page is here: http://www.thegooru.com/how-to-print-emails-in-bulk-in-gmail/ . Looks like it saves it right to a pdf format too.
  2. Unless they have large attachments, I would just forward them to the attorney several at a time as attachments. From Outlook, just highlight the first message, then hold shift and click the last message to highlight all of them, Then right-click any of the highlighted messages and select "Forward". All of the highlighted messages will become attachments to a new email. Maybe do them in batches of 50 or so.   If you have a few non-related messages mixed within the bunch, after you do the shift-click to select all of them, hold down control, and click on the individual messages you don't want to have selected for forwarding. Although, I would probably just create a separate folder to organize all of the pertinent emails into so they aren't mingled in with other email.
  3. My son and daughter-in-law were living (and renting) in one of my rentals when they got married. They wanted a starter home and asked if I would sell them the rental. I agreed to sell it, and gave them a really good price, but still within the low end range of what houses are selling for in that neighborhood. I still had a hefty mortgage on it, so I had to be able to pay it off. My daughter-in-law had a savings account that her family had been setting aside for her to use for a house, and it had a considerable balance. So, their mortgage on the house is a few hundred bucks a month.   Our other son bought a house that was at the top end of his affordability level at the time, and had nothing to speak of  to put down on it. for a while they struggled to make payments each month. His perception is that I basically "gave" my other son a house. It has caused all kinds of turmoil and heartbreak within the family.   My recommendation is don't give the house to him. It will only make your daughters feel cheated.   Consider selling it and buying a cabin in the woods that you all can use as a getaway. Or sell it and split the cash among all the kids, or put into a trust to purchase a home for each of them. 
  4. Recall back to the beginning of the show. Carol was a meek housewife to an abusive husband. I think he got a beat down once for manhandling her, didn't he? I guess that's why Carol is so intense about this guy being abusive to his wife and kid. For some reason I feel a twist coming on. The kid never said his dad was the abusive one. My gut says we will find out that the truth is the wife is the abusive one, and Rick will have to put HER down. That may be why the husband so desperately wants to be friends with Rick. Plus the kid cozying up to Carol makes me think he is looking for a mother figure.   I also find it very disturbing that the culture of Alexandria is to run away and to leave their friends behind when faced with danger. Didn't the one construction worker say something like, "It's what we do".   Hate on me if you want, but I'm not sad to see Noah go. I never liked his character all that much. I thought he was weak. His carelessness in his old home neighborhood is one of the reasons Tyrese got bit.   The priest has completely lost it. A lot of the "horrible things" Rick's group has done, was to save his own skin. And he failed to mention how he locked his own parishioners out of the church when they were seeking shelter. At least Rick's group never killed innocents.
  5. According to the shooters story, he was aiming for someone else, which who he had a disagreement with. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that the intended target was a black man. The shooter should be charged also with attempted murder of the target. If the target is black, the cops should make a big deal about prosecuting him to the full extent of the law on that charge. After all - black lives matter, right
  6. My last pair of glasses I bought at Walmart. My doctor convinced be to try the transitional lenses instead of bifocals, saying they offered much better range than just the two strengths of a bifocal. I got the lenses and frames from Walmart, and tried them for a few weeks before I couldn't stand it anymore. I was constantly moving my head around searching for the right place to look through the lens. I went back to Walmart and they happily changed my lenses out for standard bifocals, at no cost. Although there was no refund either, since I think the transitionals cost more.   The pair I have now, I got at the doctors office. They convinced me to try transitionals again, saying the problem I had with the last pair was that they were "Walmart lenses", and theirs are not cheap ones. I paid probably more than double what I paid at Walmart, and while these are marginally better, I'm still searching for that sweet spot, and half the time I just look over the top of the rims for close up stuff.
  7. Sean Penn is another POS hypocrite that hates guns and America, who has a new action movie coming out portraying him as a badass tough guy, ex soldier, saving the world using guns. I can usually separate the art from the artist, but with Penn, I can't even stand to look at him. He literally disgusts me so bad that I refuse to watch anything he is in.   I may watch Neeson's new movie, but I'll wait till I can watch it for free. 
  8. I got one just like that from Buds in Sevierville a few months back. It was in great shape and super clean - did not have all the cosmoline all over it that you hear stories about. I did take it down to refinish the wood. While I had it all apart, just for the sake of doing it, I disassembled the bolt, and found a hidden cache of cosmoline. The importer did a good job of cleaning the exterior, but overlooked the details. I'd recommend doing the same with yours. Plus, you'll learn more about how your rifle works.
  9. Yeah, I think Carol got the chocolate as a cover story. She went for it first. In case she got caught, she had her story of why she was in the room. The threat to the kid was genius too. It was so over the top, nobody would believe the kid even if he did tell someone. If confronted about the kid, she can just confess about the chocolate and say he was mistaken / lying, or she could even blame the chocolate theft on the kid and turn it around onto him.
  10. Pics of the crash site: And later in the waiting room of the hospital:
  11. I was reading an article someone had written where their theory is that the wolves are actually Rick's group, and that they could become the aggressors. Given Rick's comment at the end of the show, it kinda fits.   There were several Easter Eggs hidden in this episode. One was on Rick's new Constable badge, a Latin phrase that translates to "We will Rise again". That could be interpreted to support the above theory.   The comic book was actually a real comic written by the show's creator, Robert Kirkland.
  12. Most people ducked out of work today, and those who didn't were leaving early to beat the ice. My wife called and asked me to please come home before the ice got so bad I'd be stuck. So, I came on home, driving down perfectly fine roads. No snow, no ice, just some puddles.   :panic:
  13. The first things I install are MS Security Essentials and Chrome.   I've also been using Keepass a lot lately. I've been making an effort this year to not use the same password for everything, and to use a really long and strong password for each site. The cool thing about Keepass is you can create an entry for each password, and include the URL. Then from Keepass you just open the entry, click the URL, which opens the site, and press Ctrl-V to have Keepass enter your username and password for you on the web page.   Other than that, I install VMware Player. I like to run VM's on my PC to try out different OS', or if I am "surfing" and may end up on an untrusted web page, I use the VM. That way if I get a virus, it craps up my VM, and not my whole PC. I even have one VM where the disk reverts back to a known state if I power the VM off. If I do get anything on this drive, just powering it off makes it like nothing ever happened.
  14. As far as the ACA, using TurboTax, they just ask you if you had health care coverage during the previous year. There is also a new box on your W-2 form (box 12b with code DD) that lists how much your employer contributed to your health care. It is just there for informational purposes for now, but I think that in a year or two, that will be included in the income portion of your taxes. Mine was $12k, so that means I'll have to pay tax on $12k more of income, that I didn't have to pay in the past, and with no noticeable padding of my wallet.
  15. We have rental properties, and the first year to do taxes after buying one of the properties, I thought I need a pro to help me out, so I went down to the H&R Block office. A few months later I bought a book on tax deductions for landlords, and chapter one talked about depreciation of basis. It a big deal for rental property, and H&R completely overlooked it. They made it right by filing an amended return for me, but it was that fact that I had to point it out to them that led me to think I could do it on my own. Plus they charged me like $400!   I have been using TurboTax ever since. They have an online version specifically geared for landlords, and it's very easy to use. I did my taxes this year in about two hours, and that included gathering up all my receipts and paperwork and updating some personal spreadsheets. It was even on sale when I did mine, so it only cost me $59.
  16. I kept thinking that one of the group would have to shoot one of the guns they "loaned" them, and find out the bullets were blanks. Seems odd that even the trusted townspeople had to turn in their guns when they are done with them   For some reason I felt like everything that went on was a set up by the townspeople. Even the disagreement / thrown punches by the kid and Glenn. It just felt like they acted all of that out for some other purpose. Also, the girl sneaking out right there where Carl would see her seemed suspect, then pausing briefly so Carl could catch up and see her disappear into the woods.    Daryl carrying the possum into the interview was classic. Then seeing him gut it right on the porch of their new house was funny. He definitely seems out of place in this new town. I'm surprised the congresswoman didn't put him on the supply run team. 
  17. I heard on the news this morning that Facebook shut down the kid's page. His video is still up on YouTube.
  18. In the words of Dr. McCoy:   "He's dead, Jim"   RIP Spock
  19.   Are there other warships named after anyone whose service was generally unremarkable, and whose only claim to fame was being seriously wounded? I'm sure there are ships named after people who have been wounded or died, but they usually suffered from being extraordinary.
  20. Somebody explain to me why he was even arrested. Is it illegal to even posess a gun in NJ? Seems like if it was unloaded and out of reach by being in the glove box, transportation law would have kicked in. How are you supposed to get a gun from the store to the house?
  21.   That's right. TN does not require a survey for any private property. I didn't get a survey for any of the five houses I have bought.  In subdivision type neighborhoods, it is assumed the property lines are well established. If you don't make a deal of it now, you'll have a harder time later.
  22. I would definitely send a certified letter to both him and his realtor. If you live in a city, I might even get the city involved, and let them do the dirty work if the neighbor is being a jerk about it. If you can prove it's over the line, you might be able to convince him (through the realtor or city) to quit-claim the fence over to you, then it's yours before any new owners show up. Then you can decide what to do with it: tear it down,  move it or leave it. But make sure the realtor makes it clear to the new owners who it belongs to.   In most city neighborhoods that have regular shaped rectangle lots, there are metal pins at every corner of your lot. They are like pieces of rebar hammered into the ground. Sometimes they are cemented into the curb by the road. If you can find these yourself, it would be pretty easy to eyeball or snap a line between them for visual proof. Of course for the back corner you'll have to walk across "your neighbors" property on the other side off the fence.
  23. Well, darn. The video has been removed.
  24. Many dentists will work with you on making payments. You should call around and ask.
  25. Yikes, the forecast is calling for below zero temps in the morning!  :panic:
