You still haven't told us about the chain.

Gandalf used this trick on Beorn. Tell the story in dribs and drabs, it keeps the audience much more interested.

I reckon TW could learn from this technique.

:corn: again - does that make it an encorne?

Oh, I agree with you, I just want her to finish the story.

The Chain?
 

Ok so the cops tell me he can give away his stuff? BUT I have spent the last 6 months building a case on Hillbilly. sort of elderly exploitation thingy, i have witnesses, papers all kinds of goooooood stuff, PICTURES, so right now, there is 25 cords of full length trees just laying there covered in snow. Spring will be here soon, HillBilly only made off with 5 cords before snow came.... as soon as spring comes, he will be baCK FOR THE REST! My chiropracter gave me a Huge bright red CHAIN, to chain off the opening... the opening where you can get in to get at the trees....i was thinking of chaining it off????? to stop him????????? cause just telling him to stop doesnt seem to work. this guy is a sort of professional typpe of con, going from one sick old person to another just for STUFF? what do you think? You couldnt make this stuff up!!!!!LOL cindy

If he's that big a con artist, I doubt a chain draped over the entrance will stop him.

I Know?
 

I know? this is a true story, and i really dont know what to do... i am really really mad at this Hillbilly and i am going to get him.???? i've been all over the net trying to find out about timber theft, things like that. But Now the gun is gone???? i have no idea where it went, it is missing... i think hillbilly has that too. it is an odd gun, the cops were marveling at it, and now it has disappeared. so my boyfriend dave says......" its been alittle interesting...and alittle fun.... but alittle dangerous cause he had the gun" now the gun is gone so i think i can put up the chain without getting SHOT! and the chain will stop bill, because it will have no trespassing signs on it KEEP OUT, etc, and if he breaks it we will call the cops again, with no gun around, i might win!!????????????????????

I think Hillbilly sounds pretty sleazy, but unless you are able to get your dad declared by a court to be incompetent and you get a power of attorney (or whatever it's call) over him, you have to sit by and let your dad give away whatever he wants to his "friend". The cops already told you how it is.

SLEEZY
 

Oh yea, and this hilbilly is the type of guy who'll sit right at the kitchen table and make comments about getting stuff OUT of other people. quiet A CHARMING FELLOW HE IS????? SO I NEED A GOOD PLAN.

I think Glatt just gave you one

A man, a plan, a canal...Panama.

Sorry, thought this was the Palindrome Association thread.

hillbillie has no outstanding warrants? no priors? contact the financial crimes department of your state police. tell them that your relative is being swindled by a con artist, and provide them that 'gooood proof' you've collected. but try to be collected and calm about it. you type like a nutter.

what are you talking about!!????????????????????

bang! your! head!

HELLO LUMBERJIM
 

Hello lumberjim, sorry if i talk fast, but i am Not a nutter just a charged up woman on a war path, the local sherrifs did talk to him the nite they came, but i dont know what he said or what happened, we figured they must have ran his name. i think i made him pretty nervous, cause he has been gone mostly, except to take my father to the doctor once a month, trying to show how helpful he is. Hum that is a good idea! ! financial crimes division! i was wondering the same thing? if he did it to my ill father, he must sort of have a habit of doing this to other people. what is the lumbernet?????? i am also very curious. the last policeman i talked to, wanted me to call in social services. YUK! cindy
