I hope we figure out why. I don't want to use the downstairs until we do. It doesn't make sense tho. When it rained 12 inches last year the neighbors all had wet basements. Well, not all of them but several. But we were absolutley dry. Last night it rained only a couple inches and we are the ones with water!! We live in the country with our own well and septic. This water had to come up from the drain the goes under and around the house and then out to the road. ????? any body out there know? The clean up guy said something about the ground still being frozen except for just next to the house so the water all ran down next to the foundation. We have extra wide overhang and rain gutters so the water wasn't running off the roof. But that doesn't explain why the drain suddenly opened up and the water drained in a matter of minutes. Frown

The best things in life are furry....and flowers!

Think of a rock cliff and a waterfall..kind of what sounds like happened. The water was on the frozen ground with no place to go except toward the house and the thawed ground and then down. It probably built up fast around the foundation and with nowhere for it to drain off, it seeped inside probably through the floor drain. We had it happen one time and it forced it's way in through the basement shower drain! We ended up plugging it!

I never know what to think of things like that. I find myself feeling sorry for her, even though I have never really cared for her.

Apparently, by acting on a tip from an insider with prior knowledge, she defrauded the other investors. If that is theft, she ought to make restitution, certainly. No one is above the law. Yet I do think the law is often applied inequitably.

I also think there is a difference between crimes against property and crimes against persons. It's when the REAL bad guys get off easy that I become upset. A murderer should get more than a few years prison sentence.
