Kay Watters '65 (Greene)
Jim, "WOW" I haven't done another thing and just got back on, so I thank you for this information. I will plot and plan before I call AND write a letter tomorrow. I just hope it works. Joe King Fultz family are attorneys in this town so I have to be very careful what I do say. Did anyone note that Obama in his State of the Union speech said he would reinforce the FTC and FCC commissions to be able to help the individual person who contacts them for help and/or to report a fraudulent claim. As of now, it states they are unable to help resolve a complaint only to be made aware and/or investigate a corporation or such, from all the complaints sent to them. Perhaps this will help all of us soon. If you will go to Direct TV complaints, you can read hundreds of people similarly scammed. Dish too, Seems there is no integrity when it comes to satellite contracts.
Beau, when you are typing in the body of this page do you notice a bunch of options in the toolbar above the page you are typing from? Perhaps you can fix it from these.
That storm was something else. I was happy to leave and get to school early, in case trees and things started blowing around and/or a tornado touch down. As it was, got to school, sat down and the electricity went off....we couldn't see and were using flashlights to escort students down the hall to the restrooms. We surrendered and all left at 12:30. (We had to feed them sandwiches and chips so they would not leave hungry, no morning break either). No damage at my house, but my pond is completely full now and everything is back to normal.
On the Social Security issue, I receive a mo. check on my dead husband's S.S. But the government won't let you have two - I have to forego mine, being smaller of course. They penalize you if you work at a school and receive a pension, they won't allow you to collect on two. We have a teacher, who's husband died, and she has worked here for a long time, and I imagine makes more money than he, (his stopped accruing a long time ago when he died and her's keeps building so she has to keep working. I suspect she is over 65. Just the way of the world, politics - keeps us poor and working, while they become so affluent in the billions. I would like to see a law passed that would allow us to vote to fire polictians that refuse to work together, for the good of ALL AMERICANS.
