I wanted to leave a comment about the story on the bull dog calender. I love bulldogs i have to of my own and i also have a 4 yr old son that loves them. my dogs were not raised to fight but to protect us and they have scared i kow at least 5 criminals off of my property. if they had not been there what would have happen to me and my son. My two dogs are the most loyal animals i have ever owned. So please stop showing so much hatred against thier breed. Most idiots believe everything they hear on the media. Kristal Lebo
Kristal,
I looked up the story, and it seems Ken Foster agrees with you. I’m a dog lover too. Thanks for writing! Melanie
Melanie,
This is now the 3rd time I have contacted you about this matter. I am totally deaf and HAVE to use the closed captioning on my TV. Unfortunately, channel 6 closed captioning has been a problem for quite some time now. The words are so garbled the entire context does not make sense. If there are mistakes on the closed captioning you can normally figure out what the captionist is trying to say, but channel 6, is so messed up you can’t make out the words at all. I can’t be the only deaf person in the New Orleans or Northshore area having this same problem. It shouldn’t be my cable companies fault because the other channels aren’t having the same captioning problems. Please, please rectify this problem as soon as possible. I miss my NBC shows!!!
D. Bartley Weiss
Mr. Weiss,
I am so sorry for your troubles. I forwarded the problem to the proper authorities, but I will check on the progress for a solution. You are right, you must watch your NBC shows! Keep me posted, and Happy Holidays. Melanie
I want to know if there is any help out there! my husband and i have been looking to purchase a house. we finally found one and it was a foreclosed house through hud. we put our bid in in oct. it was accepted and we had a contract with them and that we were suppose to close by dec. 11 well two days before closing we find out that hud never did the lead paint removal that was suppose to be done by them before closing so we had to extend our contract do to there neglect. me and my husband put our 30 day notice in at our house we were renting thing we were going to be closed in dec. big mistake. after phone calls and calls the work is finally done now because of there delay we have to go and get extensions on our intrest rates and some other issues for our loan. now they have all the paper work as of today 1/8/09 and there still saying we cant close untill the 1/23/09 when in the contract it states they only need 10 days to get the paper ready so we can close. i have had to live in a packed up house with 4 children our christmas was the worst. and this house buying process has been the worst. why dont they have to follow the contract when we do??? we were almost homeless because of there neglect to do there job, you would think the way the housing market is today they they would be on the ball to sell houses.
I don’t really know where to turn for help concerning this tragedy. Someone suggested that I contact Melanie Hebert at channel 6 news as an option. I am writing concerning my little cousin Amanda who is a 20 year old single mother of a 6 month old son named Devin who was born 9-11-08. Devin tragically passed away this past Sunday March 15, 2008 from SIDS. Amanda lives paycheck to paycheck and did not have life insurance for Devin. She does not have the funds needed to have a burial for her son. I am unable to help her with the expenses needed at this time as I am in a financial crisis myself. I wanted to see if there was anyway possible to make a public announcement regarding her situation in hopes that we can have anyone who felt it in their heart to donate could do so at the Garden of Memories. I apologize if this is not the kind of thing you handle, I just didn’t know where else to turn. Please advise me if there is another person or agency that handles these types of situations that I could contact. I have never been in this type of situation and I am not sure if such an agency even exists so please excuse my ignorance as I am just desperate and reaching at straws. Thank you for your time, and again any information would be greatly appreciated.
I HAVE NEVER CONTACTED YOU ALL FOR ANY HELP, RIGHT NOW I NEED TO LET THE COMMUNITY THAT THE BUY HERE PAY HERE COMPANYS FOR CARS ARE REALLY SCAMERS. THEY ARE TAKING STUGGLING MOTHERS MONEY!!!!!!!!
Please help, we have a girlscout leader who has stolen over 10 k from her troop here in East Orlando. The council seems more concerned about a neagtive story coming out in girlscouts and they see, to be trying to squash the issue, meanwhile 18 2nd grader girls from Arbor Ridge, Riverdale,Lawton Chiles and UnionPark elemnatary school cant go to Wet n Wild, Build a bear, Young Chef Acadamy as promised because this woman lied to and betrayed them!!! We (the parents)want her to face up to her actions, pay back the girls, and be banned from dealing with scouts or other children to prevent further heartbreak and dissapointment.
I sent in my story on Tues. Sept. 8,2009, concerning the the New Orleans East Neighborhood swamp in my backyard. Someone e- mailed me back asking for numbers to contact me. I would really appreciate any help being offered to get this problem taken care of. Since my e- mail was written, I saw some men in a boat tying rope with balls attached from each side of this bayou to keep it from coming near there property. So now it barely moves now, it’s stuck near all of the other people’s property. I have pictures of this as well, eve
