Resolved Question: Pain and suffering lawsuit?
I’m sure these are hard cases to prove, but I do have a couple questions about this. Here’s the story:
My parents are good, hardworking people who have never had any problem with anyone in their lives. They work hard, are great to their family and friends and it sucks what they are going through right now…My dad and uncle decided to build some riverfront condos last year since they are both in the construction business. This was my dads first venture like this. Well, they ended up selling 5 of the six units they built, with my parents buying one as well. There is one they are unable to sell because the tenants insist on parking they’re boat haulers in the lot below the unit that is for sell. They have had prospective buyers who back out of the deal because of this. The one family that lives in one of the units have put my parents through hell. First they ripped out they’re walls, insisting that they have mold in them. My parents and they have brought people in to test and no mold was found. (During the building process, moisture was caught in the walls, but was dried out). My parents even offered to fix the walls, but they declined. Anyways…now they are going through with their lawsuit, and bringing air quality testers in and everything. They say my parents decieved them. My parents live there in this stupid condo association with stupid people who want everything for free. My mother cannot even walk outside her own home without these people harassing her about everything from the lawn, to the pool, to the flowers that were planted, etc. She cannot even live there in peace, in her own home. Even my father, who is the calmest man in the world is getting fed up. They can’t sell, because these people are doing everything in their power to sabotage my parents. Now my mom, who has never been on medication and who hates to take it, is on xanax. They are rude and obnoxious to my parents’ guests as well. They let their dog shit everywhere and don’t clean it up. The whole association is against my parents for the sole reason that they are the builders. Yet, I here them telling their friend and family how great the place is. There’s so much more to tell, but I’m just rambeling. Do you think my parents can counter sue with pain and suffering since they live among these people? Please advise…
Maybe pain and suffering is wrong type of lawsuit, but what can my parents counter with in this situation?
I’m sorry…in case the second person who answered looks at this again, they are owners, not tenants. This is not rental property.
Resolved Question: Why not consider St. Louis as your next travel desination???… here is all the info you need :o)?
Do Something Different!!!
My thoughts as a native St. Louisian….
St. Louis, Missouri is a great place to visit in November. Visit the Arch and take a romantic walk around Memorial Park as you look at the changing leaves and watch the Mississippi River roll lazily by below you.
It is a great city to be romantic… or to find romance.

Forest Park, officially opened to the public on June 24, 1876, is one of the largest urban parks in the United States. At 1,293 acres, it is approximately 500 acres larger than Central Park in New York.
Today it attracts more than 12 million visitors a year. It is more than a scenic backdrop to our city. It is an active participant and catalyst in the St. Louis community. Monuments, historic buildings, wildlife, waterways and landscapes combine to form a unique cultural institution that is vitally important to the entire St. Louis region. The park is recognized as an important gathering place where people of all ages, races and economic backgrounds can gather and mix in a positive way.
It is the home to the region’s major cultural institutions—the Zoo, Art Museum, History Museum, Science Center and the Muny Opera. It also serves as a sports center for golf, tennis, baseball, bicycling, boating, fishing, handball, ice skating, roller blading, jogging, rugby and more.

Resolved Question: can someone give me websites for old victorian bottles?
I have been collecting old glass bottles from East Tilbury in Essex, UK, for a few years now and have various glass bottles from Gordons Gin to United Daires/Dairy Crest to Poison Bottles to
Ink wells & Milk of Magnesia (blue) coloured bottles, but I find it hard to fing inforamtion on domestic type bottles which are not really worth anything in money terms… I have seen a local historian from our local musuem but he isn’t up to date with a lot of my bottles from London which were dumped along the riverfront!
