What would you do?
What would you do if your landlord showed your apartment without giving notice first? Today I was sitting at home and was very startled by very hard banging at my door. It was the owner of the building I live in who had just purchased the building in April. He was standing there on his phone and I had to wait for him to get off it to figure out what was the purpose of his visit. He was there to show it with someone at his side. I was so upset and let him know that but I also permitted the viewing. It was so awkward having people come into my SPACE that I paid for without any warning whatsoever. He showed it to two different people back to back. I am so furious.

This is the letter that I sent to him giving my written notice and requesting 24 hrs notice even though it is already required by law.

Dear Tony and Pat,                             7/012011

I have decided to take the next step and move in with my significant other. We found a nice place on *** Ave for the two of us. I am writing to officially give 60 days’ notice as required by the early termination clause of the lease. I will be out of the apartment before September 1st. Please rest assured that the apartment will be left empty and that it will be clean. The apartment has been very good to me and I am sure you will not have any trouble renting it. Please give me 24 hours notice if you would like to show it or inspect it so that I can make sure it looks nice.

Given that I am giving 60 days notice including my conversation by phone with Tony today, and that I am willing to fully cooperate with showings of the apartment, I am requesting the return of my security deposit after moving out. In good faith I will pay my last month’s rent as required by the lease agreement. I do wish you both the best in your endeavors and hope that you will find a suitable tenant for the apartment.

Sincerely,

Libertad

Get that WWJD crucifix and hold it up exorcist-style at the jerk.
metalpeter - 08/12/11 17:41
Well the guy is a fool..... See that 24 hour notice kinda works both ways..... First of all I assume that he didn't give notice and walked in with key he could get his head blown off.....Granted that is extreme But it would be breaking and Entering... But the point is the same you aren't home and your roller skates are there or something and someone falls or trips and and someone gets hurt or something damaged there would be all kinds of problems for him... But more importantly from his side he doesn't come in to the mess from the sexy party the night before..... Not sure what I would do since I would be moving out anyways.......

My baby bunny's daddy filmed this...


After watching this I realize how much I miss my Coco bunny. He is so cute!!! He is with my baby bunny's daddy until sometime after Mike and I move. It will be the longest since going to Cuba that I have been away from him. Precious bunny brings cuteness to all!
metalpeter - 08/06/11 11:10
I was bit thrown as to who that was as well.... Looks like he is licking his paws like a cat would?
mike - 08/04/11 09:11
I guess that makes me the evil stepmother. Do the dishes and the washing Coco!
libertad - 08/04/11 06:57
He has two daddies. We have joint custody of him so we each have him about half the time.
tinypliny - 08/04/11 03:29
I am confused. Who is your baby bunny's daddy? If your "baby bunny" is coco then coco's "daddy" would be... you.

Linwood ass shooting


BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Authorities tell News 4 an NFTA Police officer was forced to open fire on a suspected car thief.

Just after 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, police were called to Linwood Avenue and Bryant Street. 40-year-old James Delacy, an NFTA Police officer who has been on the force for two years and was previously with the Erie County Sheriff's office, was on patrol spotted a stolen car with a suspect inside. The suspect took off running and Officer Delacy gave chase, eventually catching the large man, believed to weigh over 300 pounds.

The suspect started to get the better of the officer during the scuffle, gaining control of the officer's pepper spray and blasting the officer with it. Officer Delacy pulled his service weapon and shot the suspect in the rear end. The suspect has been identified as Kevin Allen of Buffalo, no age or address available.

Both Allen and Officer Delacy were taken to ECMC for their injuries. Both are expected to be okay. The NFTA has launched an internal investigation with the assistance of the Buffalo Police Department internal affairs division.

We'll have more on this story on News 4 at 5 and 6

(e:Uncutsaniflush) told me about this.

what is it about butts today?

on the gayle king show this morning, she was talking about some ass slasher who is cutting young women in washington dc in retail shops.
metalpeter - 07/28/11 17:45
So lets see if I get this Correct NFTA the people who watch out for the buses and I guess the Air Port went after a stolen Car? Somehow I don't think he is supposed to do that.... A robbery maybe or an a attack... Maybe a car stolen from one of there lots.. Why not chase him with the car why not follow and call into the regular cops.... Why try to take down a guy much bigger then you.... To me of course I'm sure there is stuff the left out sounds like bad policing to me......

Local air quality improvement?
So hopefully this is for real that Tonawanda Coke will reduce their benzene output by 2/3rds. Sometimes I can smell the pollution from this company it is really makes it hard for me to breath.

Tonawanda Coke agrees to reduce benzene emissionsBy Janice L. Habuda



Benzene emissions from Tonawanda Coke Corp. will continue to fall under agreements signed this week between the company and regulatory agencies, officials announced Wednesday.

Regional leaders from the federal Environmental Protection Agency and the state Department of Environmental Conservation discussed the agreements at a news conference outside the Kenmore-Town of Tonawanda Municipal Building, where they also announced that grants totaling $230,000 have been awarded to two groups involved in local environmental efforts.

“Our work on Tonawanda Coke is a work in progress,” said Judith A. Enck, the EPA’s regional administrator. “We’re not done. It’s continuing.”

According to Enck, the agreements, combined with earlier efforts, will reduce emissions of benzene—a known carcinogen — from the River Road facility by at least two-thirds.

“We are focused . . . on the benzene emissions because benzene has been linked to cancer, to blood disorders and to reproductive problems,” Enck said.

Officials did not give a timeline for the two-thirds reduction or any details on current benzene emission levels.

A yearlong air-quality study, performed by the DEC during 2007 and 2008, established that Tonawanda Coke is the predominant source of benzene in the town’s industrial zone.

The agreements with the state and federal environmental agencies require the company to make significant repairs to — and eventually replace — the ammonia scrubber system, among other things.

“That is Phase 1 of our enforcement together,” said Abby Snyder, regional director for the DEC. “The first thing we wanted to target was reducing benzene emissions.”

A total of $230,000 in EPA grants will go to environmental initiatives for local businesses and residents.

A $130,000 pollution prevention grant was awarded to the New York State Pollution Prevention Institute, which is based at Rochester Institute of Technology. It will be used to lend technical assistance to businesses in the town, conduct detailed environmental assessments of their manufacturing processes and improve operations to significantly reduce their environmental impacts.

A $100,000 Community Action for a Renewed Environment grant went to the Clean Air Coalition of Western New York, a citizens group that initiated air testing on its own several years ago to investigate residents’ illnesses. The coalition will work with residents to prioritize environmental risks and concerns they want addressed.

“Finally, the voice of the Tonawanda community was heard,” said Sen. Charles E. Schumer, D-N. Y. “This agreement, spearheaded by the EPA, along with DEC, [proves] that a community can band together and stand up for their simple right to breathe clean air.”

Rep. Louise M. Slaughter, D-Fairport, applauded the development. “Clean air is a basic human right, and I’m proud of my friends at the Clean Air Coalition for leading the fight on behalf of everyone in Tonawanda,” she said.

Whatever. I am going with the logic. More pollution = less ticks!
libertad - 07/21/11 21:25
I think it is probably just as evasive in this area. Maybe a little less so just for the fact that we have less wooded areas.
tinypliny - 07/21/11 20:29
Aren't you concerned that if this is successful, the ticks from Monroe county might invade Erie?!
libertad - 07/21/11 18:04
It is also questioning the company and if they really will do what they have agreed to. I feel bad for people around the plant but I definitely can on heavily cloud covered days smell the pollution from this plant. I can tell it is from that because it has the same stench that you smell when you cross the grand island bridge.
metalpeter - 07/21/11 17:04
Like the ? in your tittle so yes the Air will be less bad for you and that is a good thing... But I still wouldn't call it clean.....
