Replying to: tallman1 (Dec 20, 2008 8:43 am) So, I was collecting in a route that wasn't mine one day. I knocked on the door and a nasty old guy told me.." Oh, have I been waiting for YOU!" He went back into his house and emerged with a coffee can full of pennies. He raised the can in the air and threw them EVERYWHERE! All over his lawn, flowerbeda and the sidewalk! At the time, I think the monthly charge was 2.50 or something like that. Then he gave me a nasty smile and said " Here is your money you SOB,,,you will find your money where I've been finding my paper every morning!" I laughed at him and told him it wasn't my route and that he better start picking up the pennies before he tried cutting his grass!

Replying to: isellhondas (Dec 20, 2008 12:41 pm) I remember when a weeks worth of papers cost 45 cents when I had my first paper route. Those paper route days do bring back memories alright, good and bad. I found out there were some people who would try to beat a 12 year old kid out of that 45 cents. My Father used to ask, "How many weeks are you going to let that happen? That's your money they're keeping, you had to pay your route man that money now your a banker for them". At first I didn't get it then I finally woke up but only after I spoke up and told them they weren't getting anymore papers from me!  Car thing: I'll bet my last cold toes they were grinders. jmonroe |

Replying to: venture (Dec 20, 2008 9:37 pm) I am looking more at the Versa as it will be my car and used mostly for commuting and running errands. To replace my wifes car a Maxima would be good as hers would be used for trips, evenings out and stuff like that. But since it is her car its more her choice. |

I looking for an answer to a couple questions about leasing a car. Here are my questions. 1. If you are leasing the car for 24 months and the first payment is “waived”. How many payments will I make 23 or 24? 2. With a “sign and drive” lease. Are there any out of pocket expenses due at signing? Thanks for your help |
