This is what happens when voting is completely subjective and not really based on any specific statistical metric.

People not getting votes simply because they're not liked. Jeff Kent not being a Hall of Famer but Ryne Sandburg being in is an absolute joke.

Most mortgages default to handling taxes/insurance via escrow for you. They want to make sure it gets paid so the collateral is safe.
Basically this.

Plus, they get to reap the benefits of everyone's escrow money gaining interest for them, and not the buyer.

When you get a mortgage and homeowners insurance, you have the option of paying them separately, or together.

You chose to pay them together.

So the mortgage bank holds the insurance money for you, and then when you're insurance payment is due (because it isn't due monthly, like your mortgage), the mortgage company just wires them the money.

So, lets say your mortgage payment is $1700 a month. $1500 of it is to actually pay down your mortgage, and $200 is to pay your insurance.

This is basically making up your own rule. It's also the golden rule that Jesus taught.

It's the "Golden Rule" without all the other BS that is attached with Religion. And even if it's making up my "own rule" (even though I wasn't the one to make it up) it's a great rule to live by.

My fate in the afterlife shouldn't be based on how often I go into a building with a cross on the roof to express how much I believe, or whether I put a $5 bill or a $20 bill in the collection plate, etc. If I get to the "pearly gates" and whoever the gatekeeper is doesn't let me in because I didn't put enough money in the collection plate, or I ate meat on Fridays during Lent, but was otherwise a great person, I'm not sure that's a place I want to spend my days eternal anyway.

I have ZERO fear of what happens to me when I die, because I live my life giving everyone the respect they are due, even if they do not deserve it.

just don't be a dick. if there is a God, he will judge you based on your actions and he won't care how 'devoted' to him you are -- an omniscient being wouldn't be so vain.

This is basically the though I have as I try to live every day of my life.

A lot of Gen-X parents now have kids that are getting close to their own independence. At the age where they can hang out with their friends without it being a "play date".

So a lot of these moms are coming to grips with the fact that a lot of the other moms from sports and other group activities were more just acquaintances they had through their kids.

I kinda see it too. Now that my son is old enough to play middle school Baseball and has aged out of town ball, I don't see nearly as many parents as I used to when I coached his teams.
