Updated Firefox; lost unsorted bookmarks and some bookmark tabs. I have no idea how to get them back despite using various web site suggestions. Why doesn't Firefox and Microsoft issue warnings about Updates: WARNING...UPDATING MAY WILL ROYALLY SCREW UP YOUR SETTINGS AND RUN-ABILITY. The one before this removed all my Toolbar Icons and shut down my Kaspersky Anti-Virus.

You can export your bookmarks i the future. And if you realley want it back roll back windows to a former saved version.

Neck is all discombobulated!!! Strained it overnight on Saturday. Can barely turn to my right. Need a new pillow!!! Not sure what to get, just know it won't be from the My Pillow guy cause he just annoys the living daylights out of me.

Would you have wanted to walk home instead?

Definitely not but doesn't help when you've got to buy a last minute long distance train ticket...

In the final days of my apartment of 24 years.
Still not able to find another place to rent because I don't have a "work history" and most of the available places have been taken by the Carr Fire survivors from last summer's catastrophic wildfire.

If I don't have success in the next 6 days, looks like I'll be homeless - how's that for stress?

Damn, that's really disturbing that no landlord will cut you any slack on the work history thing considering the circumstances, both yours and those in the general area.
Maybe you could say with a friend of family member for a short bit till things work out?
I know it's not the most appealing solution but it beats being outdoors and I think most of us have had to do it at one time or another in our lives.

Not many friends left in the area (most have passed away or moved away) and my only nearby relative is my Mom who's preparing to move because after the passing of my stepdad (USMC - Korea vet), the property is too much for her to handle.
None of this had to happen, but the property management is greedy as f**k and has been evicting tenants since the fire to "renovate" and re-rent at about $400 (or more) per unit.

I am very annoyed reading above and knowing i can not help. I would be willing to chip in into an advance in requested rent. Crowd funding the shit out of it.

Damn, so sorry to hear this.

Thanks guys, but I'll get the last laugh.
As everyone knows, I've been trying to rent another place with no luck but it looks like I might actually qualify for a home on some property on the edge of town that has a large shop.
The monthly payments would be a bit less than the monthly rent at some of these places and I might actually get my '62 Nova back on the road eventually. Oh, why isn't my Nova on the road now, you ask?
Well, the azzhole property management here (that took over 10 years ago) doesn't allow tenants to work on their cars...

Anyway, I'll keep everyone posted on the situation and hopefully, I'll be posting in the "What Cheered You Up Today?" thread soon.

And here's a photo of my '62 Chevy that was recently uncovered in the "packing up and moving stuff to storage" rush.

Good to read that Dave. I could offer you a room, but you'd have to immigrate to Australia.

Thanks Graeme!
While Aussies are about as close to Californians as it gets, I don't think I'd be comfortable with all the flora and fauna that wants to kill everyone - but one of these days, in the near future, I want to make the journey down under, so perhaps I'll hit you up for some space on your couch...how about that?

 

[Airframes]

Really good to hear that you can get a new place Dave. Hope it goes well for you.

62 Chevy Nova? You lucky dog you!!!!!!! The second car I had was one of those and oh how I still miss it. Gold with chrome rims and moon caps.

Driving home from work, I swatted at a fly buzzing around my head, caught the bow of my glasses and broke them right in half.

Dave, this is terrible. Have you considered running this by an attorney? The legal aid societies out there must be booming with business still from this catastrophie. These are homesteads affected, and you may have recourse you're unaware of. These legal aid windbags are typically volunteer, pro bono, and will at least hear you out and give you an opinion, without charge. Just an idea, if you hadn't considered it. Take your lease with you. What have you to lose?

 

[GrauGeist]

Still no word yet from the finance guys...I know they take their time, but the suspense is killin' me!

As for the legal angle, I reported the management company to the District Attorney and they said that the management company has good lawyers, because they timed it perfectly so as not to violate the emergency order that regulates rentals which was part of the State and Federal disaster declaration.
