by the way, did you get any poison oak from our ride in Tecolote a few weeks ago? I sure did on both legs and my ski boots are rubbing the hell out of it. Driving me nuts.

Rookie mistake. Rather than buy a new road bike to fit your crappy road commute, you needed to buy a new house in a location that provided a dirt commute.

this decision was so much easier than giving up my happy renter existence - oh wait, there are other places to rent out there :lol:

incidentally, when the roof leaked and the water came down dripping in the living room I took a vid of it and send it to my landlady - her response: if you want to leave give me thirty days notice :shock:

as you say robo, rookie mistake :oops:

I feel like the last women he had before he turned gay.

Ask her if she's heard of the implied warranty of habitability. -- see note 139.

You have only been on a road bike once (albeit for a long ride) I hope your testicles have not shrunken so much that you did not immediately file a written complaint. If you have a valid complaint see Canaan's post (video tape of a roof leak) she cannot retaliate against you, ie. raise the rent or evict you for a certian period of time. Please don't let her get away with this I hate how many people have stories like this. On the other hand it makes all of the renters I have had really appreciative. Good luck.
