Used Backhoe

Posts Tagged ‘Stop’

My oldest son just turned seventeen years old not long ago. He’s in very good shape for his age. He’s a state champion in wrestling and did quite well in swimming and run cross county, and is training for iron man contest. He also already has 9 credits from community college and is at top 50 of his class. So of course he’s very careful about what he eats, how he looks, and everything.
My daughter who is fifteen and my younger son who is twelve is opposite. My daughter and younger son are perfectly happy to stay home, watch television, play video game, and being on the computer. Also they are quite fond of sweet and junk foods which I try to limit.
My oldest son is always picking on them about this. He has complained that my younger son is getting chubby and my daughter is fat, blaming it on their life style. He also is always saying that if I keep this up, one day one of them will be carried out of their house on backhoe because they’re too fat.
Other day when my sister was here to visit us, my daughter was complaining that mosquito bit her a lot. My son hearing this, he replied “yeah may if you didn’t eat so much sweet, they wouldn’t bother you” This is kind of antic he’d pull off almost every time he open his mouth.
A couple months ago when we were on vacation at beach, my son bought a bodyboard to use at the beach which he offered to let my youngest son try. When my younger son didn’t show any interest, my old son throws a fit and blaming it on everybody encouraging the whole family to live a horrible lifestyle and being lazy. He always does this every time my youngest son doesn’t show interest in physical activity or unusual toys.
He’s also always calling them lazy and say television has rot their brain so much that they have no idea how to live. He also always talk to me about how he’s really convinced that television has fried their brain and point out thing such as how they’d not pay attention to their surrounding until commercial or something. I don’t know if he’s being serious or not, but he do it in a such serious manner that it is scary. He has even asked me to throw television out. Sometime he’d screw television up so it doesn’t work then wait for one of them turn on television and laugh as he watch them getting upset and throw fits.
This is making me so mad; I am getting frustrated with his attitude toward his sibling. I and my husband is always yelling at him about this and he’d just laugh and try to lead us into a argument about if other kids are actually leading a good life style. I don’t know what to do any more, I’m at my wits end.

i live in a subdivision where each house has at least 10 acres of land. I’ve lived here for a little over 5 years. About two years ago our neighbor started building his house, no problems. last year before summer vacation. he took his backhoe and started to cut trees down on my (parent’s) land. now this is key he did this WITHOUT MY PARENT’S PERMISSION!!! also we have another neighbor who used our driveway because he lives behind us and has no other way out. anyway i don’t believe that the neighbor cutting trees asked this neighbor. if that makes sense. in other words he just started cutting trees down on his own with no permission. anyway he finished connecting his land to my driveway. so there is a pathway from my driveway to his land. why? obviously to use my driveway. i don’t understand this because he already has a driveway, why use mine? my parents have sent him a letter a loooong time ago no response. we’ve put yellow caution/do not enter tape in the middle of the pathway. and he has cut through them twice. the second time was actually yesterday. i did not see him do this but who else would. my parents have talked with another neighbor who said at least 5 feet of land from our driveway is ours. so in other words he could cut trees down all he wants until he gets 5 feet from our driveway. Can we sue him? or at least do something where the law will take care of this because the yellow tape sure as hell isn’t. i honestly don’t know what to do because it is up to my parents but i would really like to see what you have to say. hopefully some suggestions and personal experiences will help me and my parents take care of this situation. Thank you.
Wendy: we talked to one neighbor. that’s hardly gossip.plus he’s already been in trouble with the county. now that the whole neighborhood know. i honestly don’t think he’s innocently cutting trees down.
however thank you all for your quick responses. hopefully my parents will call an attorney after i show them this. thank you.

I’m for it just for these reasons: Many people who are against horse slaughter are against it because all they see is the death of a magnificent creature… many times, a creature they have never REALLY known personally. They’ve seen the good sides, a gorgeous blood bay shining in the sun running across a field of grass blowing in the wind.
They haven’t seen the bad sides. The potentially terrifying horror stories that are possible with such a powerful creature. The expenses, the problems, behavioural, physical, mental.
Slaughter is needed because of quite a few reasons. Firstly… horses are expensive. Many people can’t afford to keep a horse around that is useless. They are expensive to feed and keep. If a horse is beyond use, many people just can’t afford to keep it. It’s got to go somewhere. Again, not many people are willing to take a useless horse. Even rescues can’t really afford to take something absolutely useless because they’ve got to be able to turn around and adopt a horse out to be able to keep taking in horses. So the horses would end up being abused and most likely starved to death by their owners.
Disposal of a body is even expensive. There are four main options… through euthanasia, you can either bury at a specific depth away from ground water… Rental of a backhoe and a means to get the 1200 lb body into the hole. Or cremation. Which is not overly common, requires a nearby facility, and a way to get the body to the facility. Donation to a large predator facility… trailer the horse there, employees put to sleep, end. Donation to science. Sometimes a University will pick up a body, but most times the body must be taken there. Lastly, the slaughter option. Another point is that most of the people against horse slaughter EAT MEAT. Most mammals are killed the same way, so why does everyone try to save the horses that are slaughtered?
