I found out today by way of Amazon that someone had stolen $80.00 from My checking account via My debit card number, Well I canceled the card and I'm going to dispute the card when It clears, My bank will issue Me a new card in about 10 days... Humbug on someone in Oxnard CA.

I canceled the Amazon Transaction and left an explanation as to why, So much for 5 DVDs, Oh well their still there and after I get the $80.00 back who knows.

Not to be a wet blanket, or nay sayer, but I pulled dry bulk trailers for Ash Grove from the kilns to batch plants. It often required climbing up on top the trailer to unclog vents or open the manholes so the trailer didn't implode when the cement was getting sucked out. Things might be different nowadays with the powder trains, but no matter the trucking job, there's going to be some amount of physical activity required I'm afraid. The easiest I've encountered is my occasional weekend gig with a dump truck and pup trailer.
The most I have to do if pulling the trailer is to get out and sweep the tongue of the pup off after jack-knifing and dumping the truck across it. Running bobtail, I seldom have to leave the driver seat.


Example of a truck and pup. The ones we have just have a single airlift axle on the truck.

Well I'll see on or around the 1st as It's a drive to Riverside and the place I talked to doesn't know I weigh around 400lbs.

Nah, glads do that no matter how well you plant them. They are especially prone to falling if heavy with rain. The best thing to do with glads is to cut them just as the bottom flowers are opening and enjoy them inside. Marie has the absolute right idea.

I liked Yellow Glads, But then I planted what My Mom liked, Good soil in San Gabriel didn't hurt, We only sold the place cause the loan was going to reset beyond what We could pay, My Uncle had given the house to Mom and It was in terrible shape, Termites, a rubber tree next to the old foundation, No insulation, No AC(It had forced air heat though) and It was older as houses go than Moms Singer Sewing Machine which was made in 1912 and which I still have, the house was constructed with Balloon Framing and dimensionally true rough cut wood(splinters R US, the wood was not planed at all), the place was a neglected wreck and He said not to get any loan, the place needed paint, carpet, a new roof on the house and the garage, I roofed the garage Myself, a big tree in the backyard removed(a Sycamore I think, I remember raking the leaves and It's pointed balls or possibly their fruit or seed pods), It had an internal problem and had to be cut down as the center was hollow), the singer needs a new power cord though, Yeah I own a few antiques.

Since I signed My lease here back on March 25th 2011, that manager has left and there was a robbery, then a new manager came and went and now I hear from the maintenance guy Carlos that instead of $320 a month as stated in the signed lease, It's now the parks opinion that they want Me to pay $500 a month which I can not afford, I do need to get out of here, I wish I could afford this place, It's a mobile home on a foundation on It's own land that is move in ready, I just lack the money for moving, buying and closing costs, The mobile home is for $27,000.00 of course that's an impossible dream, Right now the USDA section 502 direct mortgage would be My only hope(Their not funded for any Direct Mortgage right now), of course their not funded for mortgages and under the Presidents Proposed FY2012 budget, the direct mortgage will be reduced from about $1.2 to about $211 Million, lovely, I may actually be evicted, Just cause I can't pay what the owner wants, I told the latest guy If I'm not allowed to pay the $320.00 as the written lease states that I sure won't be paying for the $116.00 in taxes that are due for 2007, I'd rather let the county have It. I wish I had some help, prayers won't help Me. there is this link here that asks people to sign a petition/letter to keep the cuts to the FX2012 USDA budget from happening as It's sent to ones elected Congressional Representatives and Senators and It's Here. I may be running out of time and options.

I would not go by what Carlos the Maintenance Man says-I would call the Manager directly.

That's just It, Carlos is the Manager now. And no I tried calling the parks number, It's a fax line now.

I'm really not sure what to do, man. If you signed a lease, I may be incorrect but I think they have to honor the lease's rate.

I would hope so too Blurf, I have the two page agreement here, It was signed by the 1st replacement manager who was offsite almost constantly. To attract a military couple in to this place the owner used the picture of a mobile home that doesn't exist in this place, Needless to say their gone as He got deployed again.

That last bit sounds like fraud/false advertising. And depending on what the lease agreement says about when and by how much the rent can be raised, the owner/manager may be about to commit a breach of contract against you.

You may want to contact the local BAR Association for a referral to a Lawyer or the State or Local Legal Aid group.

Point #11 does say this: This agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties. It may not be changed orally. This agreement may be amended or modified only in writing that has been executed by both parties hereto.
point #4 says: that I have an option to renew.

As to the fraud/false advertising that was mentioned to Me by the last manager to be here before He moved out and left for Barstow, I don't get out much. No I don't totally trust them, Local legal aid will have to do, the manager who signed the agreement said It was approved by the owner, but She's gone now. the owners didn't want to have a manager on site at one point and have said something about not having a maintenance guy on site either. From what I've heard they paid near $2 Million for the park back in 2007 and they think that people will pay high amounts for rent out here, Most would rather live in Barstow If they had to pay higher amounts, Me I can't move into an apartment as I can't afford the rent and moving just to Barstow would require about $450 I was told. Plus I have a Cat and I can't give Her up as I said I wouldn't, It wouldn't be fair to Grace, She follows Me around the house like She wants to just be near Me 24/7. Carlos will get back to Me sometime soon He said.

I think I'll scan in the agreement in the morning, As It's 12 points long.

Good luck Victor. Definitely check into some sort of legal authority to help, most counties have them, I know we do. Keep us posted my friend.

Thanks KB7RZF.

Considering what happened Yesterday with the latest Manager(Carlos the maintenance guy, Musical Managers, 3rd in 3 months), He said the rent would be $500 and I told Him that I have a 12 month lease at $320 per month, I decided to scan in the lease. Plus I have an option to renew, I was offered month to month, 6 months or 12 months, I took 12 months, Starting in July I need to try and sock away as close to $200 a month(except in September as I have the DMV that month) for the remaining 8 months or until March 2012 when the lease will either be renewed or expire and I have My doubts about renewing It, Heck I don't exactly trust the owners. I can't call Carlos(Not our Carlos here) as the number to the Manager is now just a Fax line...

I would write a letter expressing your concerns and send it Receipt Request/Delivery Confirmation to the Management otherwise it's all oral and not useable in court (I think).

It seems the Manager who signed the agreement didn't file things, So of course the owners don't have any idea that It existed, I'm getting a copy made and giving them one. I found a phone number to a Legal Aid that's local to Me, Carlos here has been around for a while, He told Me the office was robbed of some $8,000.00 Carlos said recently an so the owners weren't getting much beyond the people who wrote a check like Me, Mine was deposited as usual of course and I checked already. Paper trail, don't pay without It. I just got back from a small hike to find Carlos that I almost didn't make, Carlos was installing some new dual pane vinyl windows in some old mobile homes that have tenants, At the owners expense, this has been going on for a bit.

If I'm doing My math right, I should have nearly $1600.00 or so saved up by February, Saving is not easy, As I can be impulsive. :o But then I figure I have the Warp engine controls tied into them... ;)

On a lighter 'pair o docs', Evga makes a GTX580 with 3GB of ram thats water cooled)My ST1500 isn't certified for even one GTX590, Just GTX580 cards), Does anybody have a pair of them and what size power supply do You use If Ya have them?

No I still haven't gotten beyond the htpc pc yet, As I still need to install a fan in It, Then install a water block on an Evga P55 Classified 200 motherboard and install blocks on 3 or 4 GTX295 cards.

In specific situations, parol evidence (oral) is admissible under the rules of evidence.

I had a bit more time today to look over your posts in regards to the contract provisions of the lease.

A few points:
1. An option to renew is not the same as an irrevocable right to renew. Just because you can doesn't mean you can compel them to renew your contract.
2. I got pretty confused in the 'he said she said.' Simply put, if Manager didn't offer you a contract with X price for X duration to which you signed, you likely won't have a legal claim in a court of equity on the basis of my brief reading of the above.
3. In contract law, there must be what's known as a meeting of the minds. For example if offer A is for $400/mo/12mo and you counter offer with $250/mo/month by month, there can be no meeting of the minds and therefore no contract. With each new offer you received, provided you did not agree to the same in writing, there likely won't be a legally binding contract.

This isn't legal advice, but what I would suggest is attempting to have a contract drawn up with terms both you and the current manager can agree to and have it signed and notarized then recorded. Your local legal aid dept might be able to help you with this situation. If not, I can probably point you to a lawyer who might be able to help.
