James Holzhauer, 34, a professional sports gambler, has 24 Jeopardy wins under his belt and the streak continues. UNBELIEVABLE! AND he's won a staggering 1.8 million USD.
I watch Jeopardy every day and this guy is by far the smartest guy with the guts to match. His speed on the button is second to none. He currently holds the top 13 largest single day winnings! He's absolutely amazing!!
Wednesday was his 25th win and his total is now $1,939,027.
He trails only Ken Jennings, with 74 victories and $2,520,700 in prize winnings.
His technique is unique because he goes from the bottom to the top and he's (almost) always right! He's just so unbelievably smart!
I bet he has a nice big cut cock to match his HUGE balls!!
Ken Jennings had 74 consecutive wins? YIKES! 5 programs per week.....frick! Ken Jennings had to be on Jeopardy every night for almost 15 weeks straight. That's impressive!
Yes, but as a viewer, we see only one episode daily. So every day for almost 15 weeks, straight, every time you flipped on your television to watch Jeopardy, you saw Ken Jennings.
We have had an enormous amount of rain and the water levels on the lakes are EXTREMELY high. My house is actually on the St. Clair River/Lake St. Clair, the lake that connects Lake Huron to Lake Erie. From my understanding, the water hasn't been this high since 1986. Bottom line, people have been sandbagging because water levels have gone over some seawalls. Short story, I have a high steel seawall HOWEVER my neighbor has a wooden seawall that is not as high. She is finally replacing her seawall as well as the other neighbor on her other side. This company rolled across my property in the winter, although I was unaware until he wanted his equipment and he had to ask me to move my car. We had a discussion then, he said my neighbor said it was okay for him to do so. I asked if she had been drinking that day and he said he thought she had dementia. Better reason to ask me. He's back again but this time the ground is so wet, he's left deep tire track marks bringing in his backhoe. When I touched base with him once again, he said the neighbor said that it was okay.... In my head, I have to be a "reasonable neighbor" but I'm unclear who is responsible for what happens to my property. Is it him or is it my neighbor?
To do seawall repair, I BELIEVE it is beyond local ordinances and permits, I BELIEVE that approvals are required from DEQ, Department of Environmental Quality. I think that the Army Corp of Engineers previously handled these matters.
What I want is a 24 hour notice prior to him rolling anything across my property so I can be there. I think I'm going to post "NO TRESPASSING" signs (super tacky) and send my neighbor a registered letter, signature required, telling her about the 24 hour notification and request an understanding of who will be responsible for repairing my property.
The caveat is my neighbor does has dementia and she has another woman helping her make decisions. This woman seems business savvy and I met her yesterday after I called the police. I don't understand how the lady helper thinks she can use the "your never home" excuse to justify things that "they" approved without bringing me into the loop. I'M PISSED!
With no proof of written consent from you to the trespassers, I would venture to say that those that crossed your property hold absolute responsibility as it is their equipment, and should know better. Let's hope they are a legitimate bonded and insured company. I would absolutely start with that company's leader for holding them responsible. Good luck!
Well, that's my thought. He should have all his "ducks in a row" so that he can proceed.
I knew my neighbor is/was a drinker so her judgment is often impaired. It was clear to me yesterday that my neighbor is unable to gather thought and communicate effectively because she is battling dementia. Yesterday was the first time I met the woman who identified herself as my neighbor's "friend". My guess is she is the friend is giving the "go ahead" approval. I'm don't want to be a difficult neighbor, I just want to understand WHO will be taking care of any damage!?
Ahhh, there's the key word, DAMAGE(S). I've found in my life as a owner of many properties the key phase when conversing about wrongdoing is to use the phrase, "I have damages". It's one thing to walk or drive across one's property and quite another to damage it. Easement or no easement, landlocked or not, damage is never OK.
The ground is SO wet and so much of it is clay, I highly doubt that the impressions created by his truck and backhoe are just going to plump up on its own. As far as the downspout, I can slide the piece back on but the fact that it was knocked off while he moved his equipment in, suggests that he was much too close to my house. I don't want to come home one day and find siding ripped off the house or "basement" windows broken and nobody knows what happened.
It is a pretty place to live and that's why I don't mind driving 48.6 miles (I say 50 miles because if I deviate from my normal route because of traffic or an accident, it increases mileage) to and from work each day.
That is complicated but I would think you are eligibal to get the yard repaired after the work is done.If there is no reasonable access to the area being worked on,the government may take that in consideration if you try to take action. Land locked is a term similar to what I think would be used there.Limited or no access other wise. In a land lock case, 8 feet of right of way has to be granted by the nearest access to a highway.
Repairing a seawall would be considered a nessasary thing unlike a swiming pool or patio.
There was a similar situation involving a new home and a old farm road near here. The rich folks didn't want the concrete trucks and what not to damage their new driveway. since the farmroad was there before they bought it and the land was legaly accessiable then,the law said 8 feet had to be granted and it kept the nieghbors driveway tore up for months,chickens were ran over,dog injured.BUT when the work was done, the folks that had built the house had to repair all damage and pay for the chickens and what not.
YOu do have rights here but since it is a seawall,you may have to wait to get the yard fixed until the work is done.
Barges are used to bring in the steel seawall panels, why couldn't he put his backhoe on the barge and figure out how to get it off? OR take his backhoe 3 houses down from me, run it through that neighbor's yard? The two houses having their seawalls changed out are in between the houses that would provide access. I want to "share the wealth".
Since I was not able to connect with the DEQ by way of phone, I connected by way of email. There has been no permit pulled at this time to do any seawall repair or replacement at my neighbor's house.
It may depend on if the bussiness is a contractor for a company having right of way. For example, is there a gas line on your land? Could be the bussiness is a contractor.
Is there a power line,water line?
You have rights but at the same time if a previous land owner gave right of way, easement or whatever to a company provideing service, your hands could be tied. They very well could be held responsiable for major damage to landscapeing or whatever.
No, this is private work, nothing relating to utilities. I don't know if I have to chase after DTE, it is the electric company for southeast Michigan OR the builder of the new homes across the street.... There was a wooded area across the street from me until a builder snapped up the property and built two homes. In order to get electricity to these homes, they installed a utility pole to run the power wires from the utility pole on my property at the road to the utility pole on the other side of the road. Whatever work was done, that grass was tore up, too.
You don't need legal advice for that. Your land is effectively posted to any major use. If you don't have signs then a person could go up to your door and knock, but what you describe is not permissible. Many states and counties have trespassing laws. Something like this is easy to research. Call your local sheriff but not 911 and tell the desk sergeant what happened and ask to see if you have any rights. --------------------------------------- added after 85 seconds

Phart might be partially right. If there are utilities in your property then they could access them, but, they have to advice you prior to doing any work except in an emergency. You could protest the work and seek a court order to desist until there's a court hearing.

I don't consider myself tough, I just don't think I'm a pushover or stupid.
I balance financial records for a major health insurance company. I work closely with our Finance department as well as legal AND I used to watch some television but it was more like Judge Judy and Law & Order kinda stuff. One of the things that I've learned from my working career is "get it in writing".
Bella, I won't apologize for my share of those names you've been called here, but, taking it on the chin certainly makes you a very tough lady. If I was a man with a hat, I'd tip that hat to you for that.
Of course, why would you feel any remorse or apologize? You feel completely justified with your name calling, you hate me that's all the reason you need.
I do not have any influence over what people say to you or about you in this thread or any thread. I will make the choice to ignore you.
Why would I? You know very well you are not blameless either. You are fond of saying, " I do not have any influence over what people say to you or about you in this thread or any thread." If you choose to believe that, ok. If you do though, I'll start believing you've been hitting the scotch a lot more than a shot or two.
What other people say about me I can take it up with them. You, on the other hand, I have to take up with you.
I will make the choice to ignore you. Can you really do that? Because every time you've said that previously you came back to tweak my nose. Lets co-exist. You know why I'm here and it's not to be friendly to you. Still, the above comment was sincere and my way to be nice to you.
For those curious about M&M's new flavor, Mexican Jalapeño Peanut, I tried a couple and in my opinion, they were strange.
I'm not sure that my palate is refined enough to understand the art of infusion and I've said this before, I'm more of a purist. My tastebuds might not be challenged enough so this is my interpretation of the candy I had. When I opened the bag, I did not notice anything different regarding the aroma, same thought when I initially popped the candy in my mouth and began to chew. The heat came after the chewing was almost over and in my opinion, the heat and taste provided was that of Jalapeño. If anyone else has tried this candy, I would be curious to know what your thoughts were.
Hey my kids were fighting over the Jelly Belly/Harry Potter Every flavor jelly beans when they first came out. "Give me a grass flavored one, no! You ate the only soap flavored one. I wanna try the vomit, ooo I want one of the earwax, Mom he won't give me a dirt flavored one." So yeah, I drug them in on the taste test too. As always with kids it was definately worth the price of admission. 😆😆🤣😂
One hundred years ago, there was a candy called SNAPS. They were tubular shaped, black licorice with a color coating that contained flavor. The colors were brownish/tan, green and white. One kinda tasted like banana and one tasted like it was made with a hint of soap and for whatever reason, I liked them.
That red shit isn't licorice, blast it! It doesn't taste like licorice (truly one of the most disgusting flavors on Earth). It's frickin' RED flavored. It can't be licorice if it doesn't taste like licorice!
You don't need to differentiate.
That would be like feeling a need to differentiate between apples and elephants.

JustWill and I have blocked each other. There are times when one or the other wants information to be conveyed to the other. We both look at the relevant threads when we are not signed in. I’d suggest unblocking each other, but, this way we have a buffer to prevent knee jerk reactions to the stupidities we both spout.
There's no such thing as red or black licorice anymore. There's just red or black Twizlers.

It has to do with a neighbor authorizing a business to move large equipment across my property without my knowledge or consent.

I have an insatiable curiosity and an irrational fear of missing out.
After seeing that, and knowing I had those on hand, I gathered a few test subjects (my kids) and I and we tried it...
