Supergirl to the Rescue February 10, 2016Posted by Ted in : CBS, Inspirational, Midseason, Saturday Night Live, Stephen Colbert, Supergirl, superheros, Tonight Show , add a comment
Hello out there and a big thank you to anybody who is still reading this blog. As usual, it has been a really long time since my last post, and I would apologize for that but, really, who cares at this point? You could say I've been recovering from a year-long case of the blahs, brought on by a combination of television apathy and writer's block. Of course, I realize that I disclosed way too much about my personal life in the last post, which probably played a role in my ex-sometimes-girlfriend Sierra's decision to relegate me to the romantic clearance bin. That's right, we're pretty much history now. After I tracked her down at a ritzy party last year, she made it clear that I was one step away from a restraining order. She loves me but she's not "in love" with me. It's not me, it's her. You know the routine. She needs space, so I'm going to give her several galaxies of it. I never could figure out what she was up to and why she was so secretive all the time, and I don't really care anymore whether she's a CIA agent or just a crazy woman with honesty issues. I still love her but it's probably best for my own sanity that we're not together. C'est la vie.
The upside to all of that drama is that I once again have unlimited me-time when I'm not working at the convenience store or doing chores for Mom around the house. In the last year I've been watching a lot of old shows on DVD (mostly Ghost Hunters and The Mentalist) and reading a few books, but I haven't felt like blogging again until recently, not just because of Sierra, but also due to the fact that there hasn't been much new to watch that's worth a damn, as far as broadcast TV goes. In my opinion, we've been in sort of a TV nether-zone for a while now, consisting mostly of crime dramas, superhero shows, and a few stubborn old reality TV shows that will probably be around forever like the cockroaches. Oh yes, and we mustn't forget those charming flesh-eating zombie shows and the zombies that watch them (apparently half of the US population).
Get Supergirl season 1 on Amazon
I was finally rescued from my state of TV apathy by a caped red and blue female known as Supergirl, who flew into my basement dwelling in the fall of last year and lifted my spirits with a light-hearted superhero drama that doesn't take itself too seriously. Lead actress Melissa Benoist is super-adorable as Kara Zor-El (aka Kara Danvers), cousin of Superman, who battles an assortment of cheesy super-villains and mean aliens, and still finds time to fetch coffee and bagels for her bitchy boss Cat Grant (played with impressive cold-heartedness by Calista Flockhart of Ally McBeal fame). Rounding out the cast is Winslow "Winn" Schott, her nerdy co-worker seeking an upgrade from friend status (Why does that seem familiar?), a tall, dark version of Jimmy Olsen, a secret agent sister, and Hank, the shape-shifting Martian. It all adds up to moderate levels of viewing enjoyment. Of course, superhero reboots have been the big trend in television and movies for the last several years, maybe the only trend. Why? Who Knows. People in general, I suppose, are feeling helpless with all the talk about terror and climate concerns and mystery diseases and a jittery economy, and would love to have some super-powered people in tights around who can make everything right. I'm no exception to this sentiment and so I don't mind being rescued by Supergirl every week. Maybe not the greatest show of all time, but an improvement over most of the other superhero dramas that have infested TV screens in recent years. Score one more for CBS. They are slow, but they do occasionally get it right.
Another recent win for CBS was their choice of Stephen Colbert to take over The Late Show after the departure of iconic funnyman David Letterman. When I was promoted to assistant manager at Majik Market a couple of years ago I started working regular day shifts instead of the overnight shift, and as a result I am now able to watch shows at night like a normal person instead of trying to remember to tape them on my VCR and watching them in the afternoon. I was a fan of Jay Leno, but rarely got to watch The Tonight Show on NBC before Leno was unceremoniously booted in favor of Jimmy Fallon. Jimmy is a talented enough guy, and I respect the fact that he has achieved so much in his career since leaving Saturday Night Live all those years ago, but his version of The Tonight Show just doesn't do much for me. Stephen Colbert's edgy, politically tinged humor on The Late Show is like a breath of fresh air, and a bold move for an old broadcast network like CBS. As with other late shows, I usually just watch the funny stuff in the first half and skip the celebrity interviews. To Colbert's credit, his guests seem to include more people who aren't movie stars — politicians, writers, musicians, and so forth. The show has been doing OK in the ratings, hovering around second place behind Fallon. I'm sincerely hoping the network keeps Colbert around for a while. As far as I can remember, the last late night talk show with this much brainpower was The Dennis Miller Show back in the early 90s, which lasted all of seven months.
I'm in a TV State of Mind April 25, 2012Posted by Ted in : 24, Dollhouse, DTV, Fringe, General, Heroes, Inspirational, Lost, Parks and Recreation, Reviews, Ringer, Sci-Fi, Supernatural, Terra Nova, The Office, The River, Touch, Whedonverse , add a comment
Spring is here and the concluding 2011-2012 network TV season has turned out to be one of the better ones in memory. Here's my take on some of the shows of the previous year:
The River
You may remember my rants about the DTV transition, which caused me to miss the last season of Lost because I couldn't pick up ABC anymore. That was not a good situation for a TV blogger to be in, but luckily my local ABC affiliate has since boosted their signal enough that I can now pick up their nebulous station.
As a result, I discovered The River, which became my favorite show of the season. It's sort of a cross between Lost, Blair Witch Project, and the Paranormal Activity movies. Set in the exotic locale of the Amazon jungle, The River really delivers the goods in terms of what makes for quality television: evil spirits, monsters, ghosts, conspiracies, native folklore, and even a demonic possession or two for good measure.
Admittedly, the premise of the show — a group of people on a boat navigating their way through a maze of rivers and fighting off various supernatural entities — seems a little too much like a video game. The River generally seeks to entertain without burdening its viewers with symbolism or deeper meanings. It dispenses with reality almost to the point of campiness at times, but that, for me, is usually more of a reason to watch than to change the channel.
I was surprised to read that this show hasn't done too well in the ratings, and ABC was rumored to be in talks to sell the show to a cable network. In short, the future of this show's not looking too good for those of us with only over-the-air channels.
Sarah Michelle Gellar's double reincarnation on her native CW network has been better than I expected. Ringer just finished up its first season with a fan-pleasing ending that tied up most of the loose ends, and provides a clean slate for the start of the next season, assuming there is one. The show's ratings haven't been the greatest, but they got a big boost for the season finale, which is encouraging news.
Now that the dual murder plots against the twins have been resolved, we will undoubtedly see more of a direct confrontation between the sisters, Bridget and Siobhan (pronounced "shi-bahn"), in future episodes, perhaps battling it out for the allegiance of their mutual husband, Andrew Martin.
This mystery drama gets to be a lot like a soap opera at times, but have I found myself watching every episode in spite of the obviously female target demographic. The show might have fallen flat with a lesser actress in the starring role, but Gellar's wit and energy has helped to keep this show interesting.
(Checking my notes, scribbled on a little piece of paper.)
Another thing I like about Ringer is the music. CW's habit of playing snippets of contemporary pop songs during their shows usually annoys me, but song choices on Ringer avoid the usual melodramatic route in favor of alterno-indie fare that has, on more than one occasion, sent me wandering off to the CW website to find out what the heck I was listening to.
Another interesting new show, which started mid-season, is the highly ambitious sci-fi-esque drama Touch by Heroes creator Tim Kring. The show follows the story of single father Martin Bohm and his mute, seemingly autistic son, Jake. The actor who plays Martin, a Kiefer something, looks a bit like 24's Jack Bauer.
The son, Jake, has a habit of writing down pages of repetitive numbers, which seem to manifest themselves as signposts in the lives of random people, who are brought together in various beneficial and tear-jerking ways. "Aha!" you say. "It's the old numerology-and-clairvoyance-masquerading-as-physics routine." Apparently, it is Jake's heavenly-designated task to make sure that these various characters connect with each other for their mutual benefit, resulting in bucketfuls of sunshine and rainbows and happily-ever-afters.
As with Heroes, there are a lot of things I like about this show, and also some things I don't like. The most annoying of the latter — I hate to say it — is the eleven-year-old son Jake. Not only does he refuse to talk, he throws a fit whenever he is touched by another person. Also, he likes to wander off by himself and doesn't respond to anything his father says to him. Dad spends most of the show on a wild goose chase, running after his son yelling "Jake! Jake! Where are you going Jake?" Somebody needs to call Nanny 911, and fast.
Even more nerve-grating are the kid's pompous monologues that start and end the show, meant to impart deep wisdom to us, the unwashed viewers. It is unclear in these moments whether we are hearing Jake's thoughts or if he periodically sneaks off with a tape recorder while no one's looking, as if to say, "Ha, ha, the joke's on you! You thought I was mute, but it turns out I'm just a brat!"
This is a show in dire need of a villain. My suggestion would be this: since the kid has already assumed the role of villain in my life, why not let him be Officially Evil on the show too? Give him telekinetic powers in addition to his clairvoyant ability, and maybe he could use his knack with numbers to create chaos and confusion instead of Hallmark card moments. Then bring back a few super-powered characters from Heroes to teach the wayward tyke some important life lessons.
The whole Touch experience feels a little bit like Josh Whedon's Dollhouse, another show that I tried hard to like and stuck with for the duration of its short life. Except with smiley faces instead of brooding post-apocalyptic irony. When I contemplate the future of this show, the cosmic number receiver in my gourde keeps saying 86. That's not good, unless it refers to the number of episodes that will be aired.
Fringe is still hanging in there after four years on FOX, but the ratings this season have hit rock bottom. Still somewhat of a confusing mess with the alternate timelines and what not, it remains one of the better shows on television.
I think I've finally put my finger on what's holding this series back: it relies too much on the stand-alone stories and has become too predictable, too much like a police procedural drama. I would like to see Fringe as a true serial drama with one long never-ending story arc. Then, instead of staying bogged down in the lab, let the setting change on a regular basis and don't anchor the show to any specific location. I know that's a lot to ask, but there it is. A new direction for the series might be just what it needs to boost its viewership again.
Terra Nova
I started out making fun of this show, but ended up liking it a lot. Having an army of executive producers turned out to be an effective strategy. The dinosaurs, thankfully, were not the central focus of the series, but more like part of the scenery. The real theme of the show was the power struggle that goes on in a small developing community and the ways people learn to co-operate for their common good. Like so many great network sci-fi shows of the past, it now appears that Terra Nova has been cancelled after one season.
This old standby of the CW network was less interesting without the Cass and Bobby characters this season. Luckily, both have rematerialized in the later episodes in slightly altered forms — Bobby as a ghost, and Cass unable to remember that he's an angel. I have a feeling this show has yet another slam-bang season finale in store for us.
The Office
I checked out this show's Facebook page early in the season and found a lot of predictable "This show sucks without Steve Carell" type comments. Personally, I think the quality of the show has stayed pretty high this season, except for a couple of weak episodes like the one where Andy gets a butt tattoo as a gimmick to boost the morale of the sales team. That episode was so bad I went online to find out who wrote it. Turned out that it was Paul Lieberstein, the guy who plays Toby. Hmmm, maybe we shouldn't be letting the actors write the show? Just a thought.
Otherwise, The Office has stayed entertaining and has not yet devolved into the kind of unbridled childish stupidness that afflicts certain other NBC sitcoms. This is probably due to the continued involvement of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the producers of the original British version of the show.
Parks and Recreation
Another excellent sitcom that NBC has still not found a way to screw up. Leslie Knope has taken leave from the Parks and Rec Board to run for Mayor of Pawnee, and it will be interesting to see what happens now that Mr. Swanson had appointed the icy April as a Knope's unlikely temporary replacement. Undoubtedly, many enquiries into P&R issues will be met with a cold stare and a distant, apathetic attitude.
Well, that wraps up my review of shows I watched last season. To be honest, I'm kind of glad that summertime is approaching so I can ease up on the television and get out and see the sun and maybe read a couple of books.
There is never a shortage of people in my life to remind me that all this watching of TV is a waste of time. They say that life is short, and should be spent doing things like climbing mountains, attending wine tastings, or memorizing the value of pi to a hundred decimals. What they don't understand is that television is more than a time-wasting device for me. After putting in almost 50 hours a week at the local convenience store, I need a way to relax. When I get home in the morning after one of my grueling all-night shifts spent ringing up people's cigarettes and energy drinks, nothing helps relieve the stress better than popping in a videotape of one of my favorite shows.
The TV world, in my opinion, is far superior to the real one. Everything there is interesting and nicely scripted — well, at least in the good shows. The people are quick-witted, sharply dressed, and usually know the right thing to do in every situation. There are no problems that can't be resolved, no scenarios that are too far-fetched, no laws of physics that can't be broken. That's the universe I want to live in.
Recently it occurred to me that I might somehow live to be pretty old. Hopefully by then I won't be living in Mom's basement anymore. Not that it bothers me to be living here at age 38. I happened to have been blessed with a cool Mom. Times have been tough and she understands that, plus I'm sure she appreciates the yard work I do in addition to the $150 in rent I pay her every month. If it ain't broken, don't fix it.
What was I saying? Oh yeah, I was saying that one day I would be old and hobbling around with a cane and I would think back on what I had achieved in my life. Would I regret the fact that I had spent all of my years on the couch in front of the tube and writing a blog about it? Would I think that my life had been wasted? No way, people. This is what I was born for and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Summer Viewing Report 2010 September 16, 2010Posted by Ted in : America's Got Talent, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, DTV, ER, Friends, General, Hell's Kitchen, Inspirational, Lost, PBS, Reality TV, Reviews, Sci-Fi, Supernatural, The X-Files, Whedonverse , add a comment
The DTV Nightmare Part IV: In spite of the umpteen public service announcements that promised all I had to do was hook up a digital converter box and my TV viewing would not be affected in the slightest by the digital television transition, I discovered after the switch that I was unable to receive my local ABC affiliate — in spite of buying two different antennas for that purpose — and was unable to watch the final season of Lost. Not the biggest surprise of my life. It's OK, I'll just pick up Lost on DVD. That show's definitely worth owning. I've already started to accept the fact that this could the beginning of the end of free over-the-air television, thanks to the greedy telecom companies wanting to usurp all the extra bandwidth, and I could eventually be forced to pay for cable or satellite television for the first time in my life. Honestly, the thought of paying a monthly fee for TV makes my stomach turn, but I guess I'll just cross that bridge when I get to it. I may have to change the name of my blog to Book Wormhole. God knows, I have plenty of books to read.
So maybe the fact that one of the major networks is out of my life for the foreseeable future accounted for the lack of things to watch on TV this summer. Although, that seems unlikely, since Lost is the only show I can remember watching on ABC since The Six Million Dollar Man. I guess part of the problem is I'm finally getting tired of some of the summer reality junk that used to amuse me on occasion. I once again elected to miss the circus of stupidity called Big Brother, and sidestepped the parade of wasted lives know as America's Got Talent. I chose to opt out of Chef Ramsey's masochistic cooking school for a second season in a row, maybe I'll be bored enough to watch him next time Hell's Kitchen rolls around, and yes, there will be a next time. There's always a next time for these abusive British types.
Supernatural reruns: This CW show has been pretty amazing for the last couple of seasons in spite of the fact that I never particularly liked the Winchester brothers. Their melodramatic bickering and overwrought machismo are still annoying at times, but the show consistently delivers interesting, well written stories, with witty dialogue reminiscent of Buffy in her heyday (but don't tell Dean I said that).
Need To Know: I tuned in to the new PBS public affairs program, needing to know if the show was a worthy replacement for the recently ended Bill Moyers' Journal. It's not a bad program, but they seem to take more of an apologist stance on American foreign policy than I would have hoped for. In other words, more of the same warmed over middle-of-the-road opinions you can hear anywhere else. Well, we can look on the bright side. Maybe the talk radio Nazis will quit calling PBS liberal now that Moyers is gone. Of course, they would have to actually watch the network to figure that out, which seems unlikely.
Ghost Story / Circle of Fear: Lucky for me, I have a small stockpile of DVDs of favorite TV shows from the past. These are a real lifesaver at times when there's nothing on but infomercials or court shows. Receiving top billing here in the crawlspace this summer was an old childhood favorite, which had never been officially released on DVD, but I was enthused to find it for sale as a bootleg. It was a supernatural-themed anthology show (meaning that each episode was a stand-alone story with a different set of characters) called Ghost Story, which was renamed Circle of Fear in its second and final season. The program is very similar in style to Rod Serling's Night Gallery. This show originally aired in the early 70s, but I discovered through reruns in the 80s. The passing decades have only made it more appealing — the old cars, the clothes, the psychedelic music and directing style all add up to a nostalgia high for this aging potato. Plus, Sebastian Cabot adds a touch of class as a mysterious innkeeper who introduces each episode.
Hangin' out with my Friends: Other shows in my DVD player recently included the first seasons of X-Files, ER, and Friends. You might not believe this, but I was actually going through an extended "I don't watch TV" phase back in the 90s when the early seasons of these shows where on. But I fell off the wagon hard in 1996 when I discovered them, along with Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Seinfeld. That was the year I became a TV fanatic. I couldn't believe how much good stuff was on, and so happily rejoined the ranks of the low-brow and unrefined. My renewed friendship with the glowing box has gone on for 14 years now.
So sue me. I'm sure you anti-TV snobs that read that last paragraph will recognize me as a traitor to your cause, and call for an immediate intervention on my behalf. No doubt, you'll have me sent to a TV watchers' rehabilitation center somewhere, where my treatment will consist of a rigid daily regimen of life affirming get-em-off-the-couch activities, including skydiving, bungee jumping, horseback riding, cake decorating, metallurgy, tightrope walking, bee keeping, long distance swimming, marble sculpting, barehand tree climbing, helicopter piloting, CPR classes, square dancing, jazzercise, tennis, karate, taekwondo, tai chi, feng shui, and advanced survivalist training. Evening hours will be dedicated to group therapy and the speed reading of great literary classics. Concurrent with these activities, I'm guessing, will be daily deprogramming sessions involving the use of psychoactive medications and the forced viewing of Clockwork Orange-style propaganda videos. At the end of my 60 day stay I will roll my eyes at any suggestion of watching TV, and join the ranks of the sweater-wearing latte sippers at my local trendy bookstore.
Christmas with Jack Bauer, Part 3 January 2, 2009Posted by Ted in : 24, Holiday Posts, Inspirational , 2comments
I knew my interview with Jack Bauer had gone awry when I found myself being lifted out of my chair by the shirt collar, and slammed against his refrigerator. "You're starting to sound a lot like a terrorist, pal!" he snarled.
"Hey, uh, that kinda hurts."
"Hurts? How'd you like to know what real pain feels like? I knew when I saw you that you were one of these purse-carrying liberal elitists. But now I think it's even worse than that. Give me one reason to believe you're not working for Al Qaeda!"
I implored him to look in my shirt pocket. He pulled out a box of Tic-Tacs and frowned, then wasted no time in tying me to a chair. After a couple of solid backhands to the face, he plugged in a power cord and touched together the stripped wires at the other end, causing a spark. "You're going to tell me who you're working for", he growled.
"You really know how to throw a Christmas party," I said, perhaps a little too casually. "I bet Martha Stewart would be so proud. I don't YAAARRRGHH YIYIYIYI vugindamsonuva GARRRRRRGH YIYIYIYIYI YIYIYIIYIYYI buzabadooba YOOOWWWW IYYIYIYIYIY subaluzzabunaguzza." (Rough translation: "Ouch.")
I decided it was in the best interest of the country to tell him everything. I confessed my admiration of French cuisine and culture. I admitted to having written passages from the Communist Manifesto on public restroom stalls. I divulged my secret dream to raise the taxes of gun owners and abolish all religions except Scientology. I acknowledged my status as a United Nations spy and a champion disco dancer. I confessed my habits of sticking my chewed gum under tables, and embarrassing my family members with drunken air guitar solos. I told him about the piece of candy I stole from the Civitans box at the Golden Corral, and the copy of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish that I never returned to the public library. I gave him Bin Laden's street address, email, cell phone and fax numbers, plus my old high school locker combination and my mother's revised banana bread recipe.
Thirty minutes into the bathtub water boarding session, Bauer's phone rang. He dried off his hands and answered it.. "Bauer here. What's the situation? Yeah, OK. I'll be right down." He hung up and then threw me a towel. "Looks like you're off the hook. They've got an emergency down at headquarters." He grabbed his keys and I followed him out the front door.
"You're letting me go?"
"I'm not done with you yet, but I've got bigger problems right now."
I stood dazed as he attached a pizza delivery sign to the top of his '92 Tercel and backed out of the driveway. He yelled from his car, "Don't worry, Crawlspace. I'll find you, and you'll wish I didn't."
(The new season of 24 starts January 11th.)
Candy Wrapper Revelations September 6, 2008Posted by Ted in : General, Inspirational, Snacks , 2comments
As you know, here at TV Crawlspace we consider snacks to be a necessary ingredient in the TV watching experience. After sampling a pack of M&M's the other night I thought I spotted a typo on the wrapper. What seemed to be the problem was the apostrophe between the second M and the s. Was it possible that the package designers fell prey to the old pitfall of using an inappropriate apostrophe before the 's' in a plural noun? My inner punctuation zealot jumped for joy at this thought. "The inclusion of the apostrophe implies ownership," I proudly proclaimed. "In order for it to be valid, the word M&M's would have to be followed with a second noun." That's when I noticed the tiny words at the bottom of the logo, "Chocolate Candies". There they were. Two little words that meant so much. All was right on my candy wrapper.
This question of who owns the candies prompted me to do a little internet research. It turns out that M&M's were named after the first owners of the candy's patent, Forrest Mars Sr. and R. Bruce Murrie, who purchased the rights in 1929. The full name of the product, hypothetically, would read "Mars and Murrie's Chocolate Candies". Mr. Mars went on to amass a personal fortune of four billion dollars from the sale his little colorful creations. Kind of adds new meaning to the phrase "living the sweet life".
After solving that mystery, something else caught my attention. Standing over on the right side of the wrapper was the jaded looking spokescandy known to M&M-o-philes as Red. Like a carnival booth attendant, he pointed a solicitous finger and seemed to urge passersby to partake in the contents of the little brown package. I tried to imagine what he might be saying:
"What's the matter kid, life got you down? I got just the thing you need. Nothing like a sugar fix to make you forget about your problems. For a while at least. Then you'll be back for more. Old man Mars got filthy rich off of desperate little kids like you. So what's got you down, exactly? Let me take a guess. Your playstation game doesn't work anymore? Your Barbie doll lost an arm? That's nothin'. I hate to break it to ya, but it's all downhill from here. You got twelve years of school to look forward to, and each grade is tougher than the last one. Then you work a crap job until you're old and gray. That's the game of life, and if you don't play you end up dead in the gutter with the rats and the junkies. Take it from Red, the biggest thrill in your life will be these little chocolate candies here. Eat all you want, we got a whole warehouse full. These things won't melt in your hand like that other cheap sh**."
Just then I imagined a large shoe coming down on our affable spokescandy, crushing him into the sidewalk. That's the way it goes in the school of hard knocks.

Discovering Subtle Feelings
In Works Bluesy and Spiritual
Orchestra of St. Luke's
Carnegie Hall
The Orchestra of St. Luke's is an excellent outfit week in and week out: more so than many another band of more glamorous repute; so much so that its reliability is too easily taken for granted. Alas, this fact comes most forcibly to mind when things go less than swimmingly, as happened on Wednesday evening, with Andre Previn. The problem was not so much isolated glitches, although there were many, as a blatancy bordering on crudeness in some of the woodwind playing and a rawness in the violas.
Still, so much went well in performances of Copland's ''Appalachian Spring'' and Mozart's Symphony No. 39 that it seems mean-spirited to complain. Indeed, it was probably the lovely, seamless exchanges among hushed solo strings at the start of ''Appalachian Spring'' that disposed a listener toward an unreasonably high standard in the first place.
The rest of the program consisted of Mr. Previn's music, the song cycle ''Honey and Rue'' and the ''Vocalise,'' sung by Harolyn Blackwell. Despite her finely focused soprano and her meticulous enunciation of Toni Morrison's atmospheric song texts, Ms. Blackwell's contribution did not always carry easily over the instruments.
But what did come across was gorgeous. The unaccompanied ''Do You Know Him?'' was a tour de force, and Ms. Blackwell found fine shades of feeling in the intermittently bluesy and spiritual-like ''Take My Mother Home.''
Myron Lutzke, the orchestra's principal cellist and a prime example of its prevailing excellence and reliability, rivaled Ms. Blackwell in beauty of tone and phrasing at the start of the ''Vocalise.'' JAMES R. OESTREICHContinue reading the main story

The events that I am about to tell you are true facts that occurred over a 7 year span after we moved into the old house!! So let me start at the beginning.
We lived in a small house in a small town for 18 years. There our family grew. We had 2 boys and 12 years later had a girl. The boys grew like crazy, and the baby girl too. Our small house seemed it was becoming smaller with our growing family. So with the boys at the age of 16 and 17 and the girl at the age of 6, we decided to move. So in 2006 we moved to another small near by town into a much larger house with a full basement.
The house was old, still with the original shingle siding, was built in the 1920's. But it had been renovated 6 years prior to our moving in, so it was very nice for its age.
Our first day after completely moving in, my husband and I were washing the walls in the bathroom when we heard a womans voice call out " Hello ". My husband and I, with the same response at the same time said " Come in " . We both waited for a few seconds for someone to appear, but no one did! We both checked the house and checked outside of the house and no one was there either! We both just kind of laughed about it and went on with our cleaning.
A couple years went by and friends of the family had a baby boy and they would come and visit us on a regular basis, and weird things started happening during and after their visits. The basement door, which was located in the kitchen, knob would jiggle then turn and open all by itself, especialy if I was doing dishes and standing right next to the door! So being afraid the door would open when our friends came to visit with the baby, now a toddler, we put a hook & eye latch way up on the door where the toddler couldn't reach it. Our friends and their toddler were coming to visit one afternoon, so I latched the hook & eye latch before they arrived to keep the toddler safe from falling down the basement stairs. Our friends arrived and we had a good evening meal. I was washing dishes after the meal and the toddler was running around and playing in the kitchen. I really wasn't paying much attention to the toddler, when all of a sudden the basement door knob started to jiggle. I seen the toddler had both hands on the door. I looked up real quick to double check the hook & eye latch and the hook popped up out of the eye latch and the door knob turned and opened. The toddler fell down 4 steps to the first plain of the basement stairs, busted his lip and left a sizable knot on his forehead. I had never been so scared in my life! The occurrances stopped for a few months after that.
When we moved into the old house, being older in age, the boys made there rooms down in the basement. There they had more privacy and their friends could come and hang out with them down there. They had a friend come over and spend the night and play video games. They had fallen asleep in the real early morning hours. Our son awoke and seen his friend standing in the farthest corner of the basement. He thought that his friend was urinating in the corner. So our son yelled out his name several times, thinking maybe his friend was sleep walking or something to that nature. It was fairly dark in the basement so our son could not see that his friend was still sleeping on the couch. His friend finaly woke up and said " hey, im still on the couch, who are you talking to?" Our son then got really scared and said "no one" then ran upstairs and got on the computer and remained there until daylight broke!
A couple of weeks later our daughter was in the basement with our son playing. Our son went upstairs to get them a drink and left my daughter in the basement by herself. When our son returned to the basement, our daughter was on the bed frightened stiff and sobbing. Our son snached her up and brought her upstairs to me in a panic! After calming her down she told me that when her brother went upstairs to get them a drink she got scared, then she said it felt like someone had put their arm around her and rested their hand on her side, like someone was trying to comfort her! I did not let her go to the basement alone or be left alone in the basement every again!
I was now convinced that ther was something in our house!!!
In the first few years, living in the old house, we discussed moving several times due to the things that were happening, but financialy we were unable to.
Our second son, at 19, moved out of the house, and our eldest son moved his pregnant girlfriend in with us. They were both now living in the basement. But before the babe was born we moved them upstairs. We did not want our grandbaby living in the basement. Now no one was living in the basement anymore!!!
So we fixed up a room upstairs for our son and his grilfriend and soon coming baby boy. They had put the babys dresser in the new rooms closet, and our son was putting baby clothes in its drawers getting ready for the babes arrival. He quickly came out of the closet and said his back felt like it was on fire! He lifted his shirt and there were several scratches on his back in places he couldn't reach himself! The scratches were in three's, like something with three sharp points had scratched him!
The babe came a couple of months later and thats when all hell broke lose in the house! The occurances started happening more often and they got worse in nature.
The babe had a problem maintaining its temperature in the first few week, and had to wear new born hats. Everynight someone or something would pull the hat from the babes head and it would end up on the across the room on the floor! This was very disturbing! Eventualy the babe didn't have to wear the hats anymore and that stress was over!
A musical mobile was gotten for the babe, but would turn on and off by itself and the volume would turn up by itself very frequently. The babe was not resting well from this, so the batteries were taken out of the mobile only for it to come on without them! The mobile was then removed from the room and thrown away!
A couple of days went by and the mother and the babe were in the room. The closet door flew open and a painted wooden star of my daughters come flying out of the closet and landed on the floor upside down in front of them! Our son had a pit bull at the time and started growling at the closet. The dog done this for several minutes. The mother was so frightened she would not go into the room by herself anymore or let the babe sleep in the room by ithimself anymore either!
Occurrances just kept happening! The doors to our bedrooms across the hall from one another would slowly open and then slam shut on their own! Objects that were in my husband and myselfs bedroom, that were located on my dresser, were neatly lined up in arow in front of my dresser on the floor!
A few days later our daughter went into the babes bedroom to get a recieving blanket for the babe, who was in the front room with the rest of the family. My daughter knocked a vase with a flower in it off the shelf and onto the floor and just left it there. None of us knew she did this. A few minutes later I was headed to the bathroom, which was next to the babes room. When I entered the hallway there set the vase upright with the flower in it! I was very puzzled and went back to the living room and started asking questions about the vase. Thats when our daughter told us she had knocked the vase over and just left it because she did not like being in the room for very long! We took the vase back to the babes bedroom and placed it back on the shelf and made a few statement about how wierd the event was, closed the door and we all returned to the living room. Wasn't long the babe needed a diaper. My son opened the door and started yelling for us. When we got the room the stack of recieving blankets had been thrown across the room. They had to have been thrown very hard because one got stuck way up on the curtain rod and the rest slid down the wall onto the bed.
A few more days had passed. Our son went to the bedroom for closthes for the babe. when he tried to to open the door it had been wedged shut somehow. He managed to push the door open a couple of inches, only to see the babys bed had been pushed in front of the door. That was enough to scare my son and his girlfriend to take the babe and move out of the house!
I attained some Holy Water and anointed all the doors, windows of the house. The occurances in the house were rare after their departure. It was several months before the either of them would step foot back into the old house. When they finaly did come back for short visits things would start happening again.
On one such visit, we were making sandwiches for everyone. When my daughter was done making her own sandwich she put all the food away. I watched her do this, and we both went to the living room to eat. I forgot my drink i the kitchen, so i got right back up to go get it. Only less than a minute had passed, and on the counter was the bread open with two slices of bread laying on the opened end of the bag!
When they visited again a week or so later, I was doing laundry. I save plastic laundy soap and fabric softener bottles for recycling and store them in the corner of the laundry room. I left the laundry room and forgot that i had not started the dryer. So i turned immediatly around and opened the laundry room door. There on the floor were all the plastic bottles lined up from the laundry room door to the outside door! All spaced perfectly even. All lables and handles pointed the same direction!
My husband and I then agreed we were going to make every effort to find another place to live. 7 years of being frightened was enough!
So we found an aprtment in another near by small town. The rent was much cheaper than the old house and the older boys gone with their families now made it financialy able for us to move.
As soon as we started going through the house, packing, deciding what to take and what would come with us and what would be donated to charity, the occurances started up again!
My daughter was now sleeping in the front room where she could be closer to her father and myself. She felt safer there. So we put her mattress in front of the computer on the floor. I woke up about 3 a.m. to check on her, when i notice something would block the power light on the compute then move back out of the way making the light visible again. This happened 3 times in about 20 seconds. This startled me, so i got out of bed real quick to check on her! Then my daughters cell phone lit up and turned direction on its own, laying right by my daughter on her blanket! This scared the living daylights out of me and i made come to our room to sleep. She remained in our room for a few days but soon tired of being in the room with us. She decided she would be ok in the front room and for us not to worry about her. 2 nights later she was pulled half off her bed by something!
We were really close to having everything packed and ready to move in a week or so. Then me or my husband would be woke up every night by something yelling "HEY" in our ears. It was not human!! It was EVIL!! It was ash in color and had sunken black eyes and shape of a human head. It had a longated stretched mouth with rotted teeth. We have both seen same image of this thing when woken up!!!
We left the house within the week! We left a bunch of our belongins there! What ever was in that house could have it all!
Everything was quiet in our new apartment for the first couple of weeks so i decided to write my story down for a paranormal show on tv. The next morning our son, the one who has the babe and lives in the same apartment complex, was knocking on back door. He wanted to toast some bread. But when i left my bedroom headed for back door to let him in, there were banans laying on the floor in a circle with one directly in the middle. I let him in real quick for him to see the bananas on the floor. The rest of the bananas were still in a bunch but dangling off edge of counter. I picked the bananas up and replaced them to counter and me and my son discussed what had just happened. Our son was standing waiting for his toast to pop up when he looked down in the sink. He told me to come here and look in the sink, and there was an upside down pentagram drawn in dish soap!!!!
Scared, my son went and got some virgin olive oil and i was rubbing it on the top of all my door facings, commanding the demon to leave in the name of Jesus Christ!! My daughter started to feel light headed and sick so i put the olive oil on her forehead in the shape of a cross and demanded the demon to leave her alone, i done this to my husband and myself and was headed back to my son to put the oil on him when he was picked up from the floor by something and thrown clear across my kitchen and landed on the floor up against the stove!!! I tried to put the oil on my sons forehead then but he was in a panic and would not let me. He said he felt immense pressure in his chest then he was thrown!! He lifted his shirt and there were the scratches of three again this time in a X pattern and a welt in the shape of a cross on his forehead!!
My son then admitted he had done some kind of ritual with an old rare book of mine, called " The Sermons of Satan" he confided to me the book had told him to do this ritual, and being a non believer, he done it then burnt the pages of the book. I just thought the book was in a box still from when we moved into the old house, but he had used it in a very bad way, and then gave the book to a friend of his!! He is a believer now!!!
These are the true facts and events that have occurred up untill June 15th, 2013
I thought things were better since June 15th , so i started telling my what had happened to our family to some friends. Now things are starting to happen again and i dont want it to get out of control again. Everything that i have tried to protect my family has failed and i dont know what else to do!! My family needs help!!

Indeed, 10 men and women with brain tumors (but none of the "controls") recalled 12 hours or more of use every day--a number that stretches credibility. In a substudy of Interphone, researchers embedded phones with special software to track phone usage. When this log was compared with the "recalled" usage, there were wide and random variations: some users underreported, while others overreported use.Mukherjee's article is intended to make a larger point: that there is a reasonable desire to want to find a true cause for an inexplicable illness or impairment, whether it's autism in your child or cancer in your partner's brain. We reach out for what we think are causative effects, whether or not the research ultimately backs this up. The Internet needs a kind of medal to hand out to writers who can summarize vast arrays of information into accurate, sensible, and fair articles that don't trivialize multiple facets of a complex issue into "on the one hand, on the other hand" presentations.

American Gigolo (1980)
117 mins
Gere Gets His Gear Off
Giving pleasure to women, I'm meant to feel guilty about that - Julian
Over the years you read things about certain movies making you want to watch them. One of those movies for me has been "American Gigolo" starring Richard Gere, a movie which having read a few reviews caused me to be intrigued. Sadly having now watched it twice I can honestly say "American Gigolo" didn't live up to my expectations, in fact I found the actual storyline rather dull and not that entertaining. But "American Gigolo" appears to not be a movie about storyline in the traditional sense rather the exploration of two pivotal characters. As such "American Gigolo" appears to be a movie which works at a different level, a deeper sub context rather than purely on face value.
Having worked his way up Julian (Richard Gere - Amelia) is now a popular male prostitute, making a living by sleeping with older women who live in and around Los Angeles. But whilst he sleeps with women for a living he finds himself falling for Michelle (Lauren Hutton), the wife of a Senator who he picks up in a bar. But when one of his clients is found dead he finds himself the number one suspect on Detective Sunday's (Hector Elizondo - Runaway Bride) list. Unable to prove his innocence despite having been with another woman at the time of the murder it appears that he is being framed for the killing and there is nothing he can do to stop himself from going inside for it.
So watching "American Gigolo" purely for basic entertainment is not the greatest experience. After setting up the character of Julian who makes a living from sleeping with older women it then falls into becoming a rather mundane thriller. Julian gets set up for a murder of a woman he is paid to bed and we watch his life spiral further and further out of control as he is unable to prove his innocence. At the same time he finds himself falling for a married woman that he initially sets out to bed for money but it turns into more as the movie progresses. The thing is that none of this is that interesting and quite ordinary compared to many other thrillers, it has some nice moments some wonderfully crafted scenes but they are just brief moments in what appears to be a dull movie.
But on the other hand "American Gigolo" has a deeper level as we watch the development of two pivotal characters, Julian and Michelle as they fall in love. On one hand we have Julian who up until meeting Michelle had been emotionless when it comes to being with a women, it's a business a lonely one at that. And although he lives a nice lifestyle due to what he does it means little to him. What is interesting is the way director Paul Schrader works the character of Julian because although being basically a prostitute we like him because he seems in some way to care for the women he is paid to sleep with, providing some form of physical service to fill a need in their lives. As such we are lead to care for him when it becomes obvious he is being framed for murder.
Then there is Michelle, the society wife of a Senator and through her relationship with Julian we watch her change as she experiences love, an element lacking from her marriage. As such we are lead to wonder whether she will save Julian from being framed, providing an alibi or will her social standing and the wealth she has end up meaning more to her than love. It's this deeper level, this character development where "American Gigolo" is quite impressive but it is a level that for many won't be apparent, in fact it wasn't till my second watch that I picked up on it. And as such those watching "American Gigolo" for simple entertainment, an edge of your seat thriller will most likely be left numb by the dull storyline.
What is surprising is that for a movie which is all about a male prostitute "American Gigolo" is actually rather tame when it comes to the sexual nature. Oh there are brief moments of nudity and a few sex scenes but it all feels very restrained never wanting to become a form of titillation. Even the sex scene where a husband watches and tells Julian what he wants him to do to his wife isn't really that shocking.
As for the acting well it has to be said that Richard Gere is very impressive through out "American Gigolo". From those early scenes where his character is built as the prostitute with a heart Gere is convincing, smooth and sexy yet never over egging it to turn Julian into a caricature. Yet as his life spirals out of control Gere finds the right emotion, thrown in to turmoil as all that he has worked for is being destroyed. The scene where he ransacks his apartment in search of some stolen property is a brilliant series of scenes delivering fear and emotion in every second.
Alongside Gere is Lauren Hutton as Michelle and she is Gere's equal throughout developing her character from this semi cold Senator's wife to one who basically begins to feel again through her relationship with Julian. It's a solid performance and as the storyline leads us to understand that Michelle has to make a decision between money and love the performance from Hutton delivers every aspect of this conflict.
What this all boils down to is that watching "American Gigolo" for pure entertainment, for a thrilling storyline surrounding a male prostitute the chances are you will be left slightly numb even disappointed by a not so exciting storyline. But if you want a movie which works at a deeper level, an exploration of characters then "American Gigolo" works. Which ever you want what is impressive about "American Gigolo" is the performances of Richard Gere and Lauren Hutton who never fail to deliver solid and interesting characters.

Rogaine is a topical, over-the-counter medical treatment to help people grow hair in balding or thinning areas on the scalp. Although Rogaine may take several months to start regrowing hair, certain side effects from using the ointment may occur within minutes of using the drug. Other side effects, such as unwanted hair growth, may take months to manifest. Consider these facts from Drugs.com about the side effects of Rogaine.
Decreased Blood Pressure
The active ingredient in Rogaine dilates the blood vessels, which can cause your blood pressure to unexpectedly decrease within 30 minutes of using the solution.
Eye Irritation
If the Rogaine solution gets into or around your eyes, you may have irritation or burning that can be relived by flushing your eyes with water.
Scalp Irritation
Rogaine may cause side effects such as burning, irritation and itching on the scalp where the solution was applied.
Excessive Hair Growth
Excessive hair growth is a side effect of Rogaine that may occur in areas where you do not want more hair, such as the back or chest.
Dizziness, fainting or sudden development of a rapid heartbeat are serious side effects of Rogaine that require prompt medical treatment.
Weight Gain
Swelling in the hands and feet and unexplained weight gain are side effects of Rogaine that are not common and should be evaluated by a physician.
Allergic Reaction
Rogaine may cause symptoms of an allergic reaction, such as an itchy rash, hives and shortness of breath. It may cause swelling of the face and tongue, which can be life-threatening emergencies.

LAKEWOOD, WASHINGTON -- Lowes of Lakewood, WA hired Emerald Installation of Bremerton, Wa to install 800 sq' of flooring in our home. These installers NEVER FINISHED THE JOB!!! These installers also used a knife to open the plastic on the top of the new PERGO flooring boxes. The installers slashed the top boards on 36 boxes. Then they installed the sliced boards without even looking at them. The installers wore dirty filthy knee pads that had some glue or grease on them. This was ground into our new flooring and does not come out with approved Pergo cleaners. This "voided" our manufacturer's warranty.
My wife asked them nicely if they could "close the door" behind them while travelling from their flooring saws back and forth to the inside job. They pointed a finger in her face and said, "NO," then walked off. She asked this to keep out the flies and mosquitoes. Our home filled with flies and mosquitoes. They damage our front porch by not putting surface protection under their saws and did not use personal SAFETY equipment i.e. safety glasses, gloves or even dust masks. The crew spoke "Russian" language while working and this made us uncomfortable.
The transition molding pieces under our bedroom doors were never finished and ruined our carpet in the bedrooms they installed it wrong. So the ENTIRE floor needs replacing or our money back. That was at the two week mark. Finally after waiting a month with our furniture under tarps on the porch and multiple delays to get painters in and molding installers, we'd had enough to make my wife cry. They offered of "some" boards getting sawed out and replaced, which Pergo Tech. support still wouldn't give us a warranty etc.
We were sitting in lawn chairs on a blanket waiting for a resolution that never came. Still waiting for "worthless corporate" to give us our $3,587 dollars back. This Veteran and Senior family are victims of contractor fraud. Thank god, I got pictures!!
ARLINGTON, TEXAS -- In October of 2015, I purchased almost $15,000 of bamboo flooring from Lowe's in Arlington. I was given a one year unconditional warranty. The floors were install early November 2015, and within a few days, the floors were buckling and popping up. We waited until January 2016 to have the floors replaced under their "guarantee", and within about 6-8 weeks, the flooring began buckling. It took almost 9 months to get any true response from Lowe's, and then the finger-pointing started.
Lowe's hired an independent flooring expert. I am in the building services industry and have the same credentials as their expert. He told me my suspicions were correct... the installer nailed the baseboards to the bamboo so that the floor wouldn't float. Next Lowe's, after several weeks of non-communication with us, sent this to the installer's insurance company Nationwide. They sent the most rude, know-it-all to look at the floors, and I knew right then that they would deny any responsibility on the installer's side.
Sure enough, I received a call from Brian at Nationwide today and they have completely denied the claim. They said it was our fault and it was moisture, although we had 2 moisture barriers installed and the moisture reading was a 4, which is normal. Lowe's said they "guarantee" their moisture barrier up to a 9. Now I am out $15,000 of absolutely worthless flooring, and since this was the final project of a $45-50,000 complete house remodel, everything is beautiful except my flooring. 80% of the total money we spent on the remodel came from Lowe's.
The contracting company that did most of our remodel told us to stay away from Lowe's and they'd had horrendous experiences with them. I wish we had listened and had used Home Depot instead. Now I'm hopping mad and have worthless, ugly flooring that looks like the waves of the ocean.
KETTERING, OHIO -- Lowe's store 0207. Install date. 17 Feb. 2017. Lowe's installer, Ultimate Home Flooring, installed floor tile over condensation drain. We have a Lowe's installed Geospring hybrid heat pump water heater. Like an AC, excess water is expelled through a hose. The installer apparently wasn't familiar with this type of water heater, and put flooring over the part of the drain needed for the condensate. Water bounced off the floor, under the baseboard, and eventually through the main part of the galley kitchen. Water came out between planks. Four-month-old floor had to be ripped out, baseboards and lower drywall moldy and ripped out.
Because of the location, I wasn't aware of the problem for months. Reported day I discovered it. I'm not handy at all, but if I was installing a floor, and saw a hose suspended a few inches over a drain, I would not install flooring under the hose. Only realized what was happening 14 June 2017, reported that day. We babysit a 4-month old grandson, reported mold to Lowe's. No one came down. Lowe's hasn't responded quickly. Expected someone down that day. Restoration company ripped everything out.
CORONA, CALIFORNIA -- Lowe's offered us a great discount on top-of-the-line laminate flooring and installation. The flooring installer sub-contractor arrived at our home and found linoleum under the carpet. He stated "We do not install flooring over linoleum, you can have the linoleum removed" (at a hefty cost) and promptly left. No ifs, ands, or buts. It turns out, the Lowe's contract, in fine print, states that the flooring cannot be installed over linoleum.
I contacted a number of flooring contractors and they stated that there's no problem with installing flooring over the linoleum as long as it's not damaged. I had to pay a lot more $$ for an outside contractor. The moral of the story is, find out what kind of flooring you have before you start your purchase. Ask questions about the sellers contract provisions. We still got a good deal on flooring but it went above budget.
CHULA VISTA, CALIFORNIA -- In 2009 I contracted with Lowe's to replace existing flooring with ceramic tile in four rooms. The installation and with some small deficiencies I was satisfied. The deficiencies included failure to remove and replace baseboards to fit with changed flooring products and in a few small areas openings were left where the flooring did not meet the base board. These openings are large enough to allow entrance of small animals but no problems have occurred as a result.
My complaint is with the long term reliability of the flooring installation and Lowe's' cavalier attitude about my complaint. In 2016 (six years after installation) the tile began to "buckle" in several places. When I went to Lowe's to complain, I was told that installations are guaranteed for only one year regardless of the quality of the installation and the only help they could offer was to contact the original or another contractor to have them give me an estimate for the repair of the damage. The contractor provided by Lowe's could not verify that they had done the original work because their records did not go back that far.
I am quite satisfied with the quality and the speed of the repair work recently completed although I still believe that Lowe's should have paid for the repairs since ceramic installation done properly should last indefinitely barring any catastrophe. Maybe the most irritating thing about the incident was Lowe's employees' total indifference to my situation. The attitude was "Lowe's accepts no responsibility for anything and if you are unhappy that's just too bad."
WOODSTOCK, VIRGINIA -- It took Lowe's two and a half months to install our laminate floors. Our kitchen backsplash will take more than seven weeks if the current installation date holds up (already rescheduled four times). We expected better for $6,000!
LOVELAND, COLORADO -- First off, let me say that the independent contractors used by Lowe's to install my laminate flooring did an excellent job. They were efficient, courteous and thorough. Would gladly work with them again, except for the fact that they work with Lowe's. Once Lowe's gets you to commit to their flooring, they do not care about the consumer. We were told by them, that our flooring order was local so it would only be a week for us to wait to have the floor installed. Since we were removing our old flooring ourselves, we immediately removed it, so that we were prepared for the installers.
After a couple of days, we called Lowe's wondering when the laminate would be delivered. This is when we were told it was still on order and would not be in for another week. So we asked to schedule the installers, but they would not do that until the flooring was delivered. When it was finally delivered, we had to call Lowe's because they did not call us, to schedule the installers. Again, we asked to schedule the installers, but were told the scheduler would call us back.
Two days later, we were contacted, so they could schedule us in a week and a half for the install. So with our rush to get the flooring removed because we believed the salesperson in the flooring section, and the wait for the delivery and the installers to call us, we were three weeks without flooring. I forgot to mention that when they ordered the material, they did not order the quarter rounds we needed. So we had to have them order these so they would get here by time the installers were finished.
They arrived the first day of the install, but we had to pick them up, because they would not deliver them, even though they were the ones that screwed up and did not order them with the rest of the flooring that was delivered. The next day when the installers go to install them, they discovered they were broken and crap. So once again, I had to contact Lowe's, but they would not order them until we brought in the old ones. So after I went back down and ordered them, the guys in the flooring section acted like it was my fault they had to reorder them… Extremely poor customer service.
When the quarter rounds finally did come in, and we finally got the installer to come back out, they sent a totally different crew. I would not have these guys build a chicken coop if I needed one. I wasn't there when they came, otherwise it would have been a different story; but when I did get home, my wife showed me the job they did. They were in a hurry to get to another job. They did a half ass job in installing the quarter rounds they did install, and they didn't even install all of them. They also were supposed to tack down an area of carpet that goes into our bedroom; but they did not have the equipment with them.
So once again, we had to contact Lowe's about this, and they did send the original crew back out the next day, and everything was fixed. But I will never have Lowe's do any flooring for me again!!! We love the Pergo flooring we did get, but next time we will purchase it from Home Depot.
LEESBURG, FLORIDA -- I Rented a home in The Villages Florida. My landlord wanted to put wood floors and so they contacted Lowe's in Leesburg, Fl. A subcontractor, Keller Interiors was to come and do the job. A group of about 10 young punks come out. After they left I was putting things back on the floor, and noticed that 1 of my Money Rose were missing. I called the manager of Lowes in Leesburg Fl and she told me to make a police report and I did.
The officer came out and called Keller Interiors and they told the officer they sub the job out and would not give the officer the name of the subcontractor. Bottom line, I thought I was letting Keller Interiors in to do the job. Lowe's is well aware of what they are doing, but Lowe's does not tell the customers, so I let a bunch of thieves and punks in my house.
BLOOMINGTON, INDIANA -- If you have plenty of time and I mean are able to push back your moving day by weeks then you may have no problem Lowe's. In order to get someone to work on your job you talk to sales representative at Lowe's who puts in a work order to Keller Flooring Contractors who then contacts someone local to do the job. So... when you have a problem like we did, not enough carpet was delivered. You have to call Lowe's who then calls Keller flooring contractors who then contacts the people doing the work.
A week later they send someone out to measure the areas - not finish and the whole process starts over again. That was our carpet experience. As for the tile, Keller Flooring Contractors would not send enough laborers to get our floors done in a timely manner. A job that was supposed to take five days ended up taking 2 1/2 weeks. The quality of work was there but they definitely needed more help on our job to finish it up. Not to mention the countless days/hours spent when the laborers had to go back to Lowe's to pick up more material because the wrong amount was sent. Terrible experience. Never using Lowe's again for flooring.
FRANKLIN, WISCONSIN -- Lowe's flooring installation...BEWARE. Our family decided to install tile flooring in the section of our house that is built on concrete slab. We went to our local Lowe's store and looked at flooring. We really liked the Rialto White 12x12 tile. Not knowing how to install tile, we asked Lowe's to send one of their contractors out to measure our floor and give us an estimate. There was a $35.00 non-refundable estimate fee that would be rolled into the job if we signed with Lowe's. We were told that for installation, Lowe's charges $5.97 per square foot.
On Tuesday July 24, the measurer and installer, ** came to measure. He was friendly and told us he was second generation in his company. This gave us confidence in his expertise. The next Thursday, 7-26 we went to the store to collect some samples of the tile, and while there were handed the estimate. The amount of tile indicated as needed on the form was 805 square feet for tile, amounting to $1,762.95 for the tile. The amount for the installation was $5.97 x 805, or $4,805.85. There were incidentals, like thinset and grout. The total was $6,807.64.
This estimate puzzled me greatly. The reason was that my husband and son measured the amount of flooring that we had, and the total they came up with was 663 square feet (another company had measured our floor and reported it was 680 square feet, at least in the ballpark). This was supposed to be an experienced professional doing the measuring, but the numbers were greatly different. I know that there is a percentage added to the amount of tile you get for waste. But adding the 10% extra for waste would only bring the total of tile needed to 725 square feet.
We would not expect to purchase more that with experienced, professional installers on the job. So they expected us to purchase 80 square feet we did not need. I know we could return this, but it would be stupid, and inconvenient. Then there is the issue that in the estimate we got it stated that we would be charged the installation on the 805 square feet on the form, not the actual 663 square feet being installed. We were expected to pay to install phantom flooring.
So Lowe's wanted us to buy a large amount of product we did not need, and then pay an installation fee on it, whether or not we needed it. This seems to be a nice arrangement for the business. We would have paid around $1,000.00 more for the job than needed.
Even adding in a few square feet if we measured poorly, this seems to be padding the charge excessively. When we first called Lowe's and spoke to ** in flooring, he said they figure the footage according to the measurements they are given. So their measurements must have been close to that.
When I asked why we were being charged for 805 square feet of installation, he said the installers are paid for every square foot of product that goes out the door (not the amount of square footage to be installed)! I then called ** who did the measurement. I asked why the square footage was so high, and told him what our figures were. He said his measurements were close to ours, and that we should call Lowe's again, perhaps have a remeasure and have someone else install it, and quickly ended the call.
I called Lowe's again and was told I should call the central office. I spoke to an **, who took my complaint. Someone from the central office said the manager of the store would call me. The manager of the Lowe's, ** called me, and I spoke to her and told her the situation. She said she would look into it. I said I felt cheated, like someone tried to take advantage of us.
Later, ** from flooring called to ask if we would be using their installation service. I explained the situation to him, said I had no longer any trust in the integrity of Lowe's, and would also try to get the tile elsewhere. I stated that there was something wrong with this, and I would be putting this information into a review to warn others. I also called the FTC. I also let the BBB know.
I also want my $35.00 measurement and estimate fee returned. I have no problem paying a fee when I know about it, but I do not like paying someone to try to rip me off. I will pursue this. The final thought is that we feel so insulted that someone in this process considered us so stupid and gullible that they could blatantly inflate the charges on our job. Do we look that ignorant? Or do they just do this to all their customers? Makes you think. I have since read reviews where the same thing was tried on others.

Explore Singapore's many shopping districts with this handy guide to some of the city's most popular hotspots.
Shopping is widely considered a national pastime for Singaporeans And it's no wonder, given that a stroll down iconic shopping belt Orchard Road will leave you struck by the ubiquitous brand names that flank the boulevard. Many flea markets also pop up in the city, which appeal to the intrepid bargain-hunter. No matter your budget, here are some tips to master the art of retail therapy on the island.
1. Mark your calendars for sales season
If you love the thrill of unbelievable discounts, head to the island during the Great Singapore Sale, affectionately known to locals as GSS. This is an annual island-wide event that takes place over ten weeks from June to August, where retailers offer massively slashed prices (up to 70%)––you'll do a double take at every turn.
Shopaholics, get your credit cards ready with deals for electronics, fashion, homeware, dining, and just about anything under the sun.
Insider tip: head off the beaten track for jaw-dropping finds. Sniff out quirky collectibles at quaint neighbourhood Tiong Bahru, where old-school charm meets indie cool. Or spend hours picking out trendy (and ridiculously cheap) clothes and Singapore souvenirs at the sprawling Bugis Street Market, with over 600 stalls across three levels.
For shoppers who thirst for the unique, hipster haven Haji Lane is just a stone's throw away with its line-up of eclectic boutiques.
As for those who missed the GSS season, fret not. The end of the year heralds another slew of sales to mark Christmas, New Year, and Chinese New Year celebrations––one of the perks of Singapore's multiculturalism.
2. Nab steals at pop-up markets
There's nothing like a good ol' flea market for original bargains. Enter the flea's modern cousin––the pop-up market.
Check these out for locally made knick-knacks, affordable art, and artisanal products. From vintage clothing bazaars to handmade craft displays, the city has markets that will cater to any taste.
As for vintage lovers, trawl the weekly China Square Central Flea market. There, you'll be rewarded with rare records, toys, books, and even watches. For insatiable shoppers with a thinned-out wallet, try your luck at Fleawhere's regular fleas at Lucky Plaza's top floors (we hear that clothes go for as low as S$1)
3. Power up with handy shopping services
Not everyone has the luxury of time to scour the malls or districts for that one-of-a-kind deal. Maximise your minutes by taking advantage of personal shopping services.
Navigate through six floors and 380 labels at Robinsons The Heeren with the help of a personal shopper who'll dispense style tips, for free, to take your look up a notch. Or head to retail and lifestyle giant TANGS — with a minimum purchase, enjoy delivery services right to your hotel doorstep.
Opt for the VIP treatment with The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands®'by-appointment-only personal shopping service, where you'll be treated to a complimentary scent profiling session by perfume house Penhaligon's as well as afternoon tea at TWG Tea Salon and Boutique.
As for a spot of last-minute retail therapy before your flight, get a leg up on duty-free shopping with iShop Changi. Simply head online, order that bottle of wine and pick it up before you hit the gates.
4. Do it all at multi-label stores
Opt for an immersive experience when you shop. Multi-concept stores enhance the retail experience with dining options, workshops, and custom services so that you walk out with an extra spring in your step.
Get a Japanese-inspired haircut, collectibles from Taiwanese and Dutch designers, and handcrafted perfume––all in a single space––at Orchard Central's PACT, an emporium that houses eight brands of furniture, homeware, clothing, and lifestyle products.
For the artsy among us, take a trip down avant-garde lane at salon-slash-shop SUPERSPACE,which carries local brands Mashup and RÊVASSEUR––you might have seen these standout pieces on the runways of Seoul and New York's fashion weeks.
Take home something crafted by your own hands, too, when you sign up for a floral arrangement workshop at design-centric retailer Naiise.
5. Master your tax refunds
After the heady whirl of swiping that credit card and lugging a mountain of shopping bags, it's time to do that necessary evil––your tax refunds. For visitors to Singapore, the process of getting back some dough is easy. Make sure you're eligible: with purchase of over S$100, you can claim the Goods and Services Tax (GST) paid on your purchases at participating retail shops when you finally head home. Use the electronic Tourist Refund Scheme (eTRS) for hassle-free refunds. All you have to do is choose a single credit or debit card as a Token for tagging purchases, then retrieve all that in one go when applying for a refund at the self-help kiosk at the airport.

This upload was 3rd in the Experimental Ambient chart , 7th in the Breaks chart , 7th in the Breakbeat chart , 14th in the Eclectic chart and 47th in the Electronic chart .
Label head Fragile X is back on podcast duty this month. It's another sonically aesthetic mix that twists and turns it's way through your eardrums. It kicks off with an array of unobtrusive sounds and layers that fuse elements of ambient, progressive breaks and futuristic sounds before diving off the deep end and into some faster paced breakbeats and complex rhythms with a darker tone. The sonic and experimental side of things remains at the forefront throughout with the drops of ambience and unique breakdowns remaining littered throughout creating a slightly frenetic but always harmonious second half of the mix that slides and swerves among all sorts of dynamic textures. The result is an expansive mix that provides an introspective into the eclectic world of electronic music.
A - ki - ra :)
Nice clash of styles in this mix. Little bit of everything.
Some really high octane vibes. Massive thumbs up.
