  1. Haven't watched this show in ages. After this episode, I'm out again.
  2. I haven't watched Judge Judy in quite a while and the foreclosure case reminded me why I stopped watching. Granted both litigants were obnoxious but so was JJ. Her repeatedly yelling at the defendant "What did you hire her for", was annoying. She could have moved on, which she eventually did, and let the plaintiff testify. To me, her yelling and talking down to the litigants has gotten old. I know some will say I don't have to watch and I agree. So once again I'm taking a break from Judy.
  3. Hi gang - I don't watch JJ regularly anymore but I want to tell you guys about what happened to my granddaughter that belies one of JJ's favorite pronouncements "no one has full coverage insurance on a car over a certain age". Well my granddaughter had a 2009 Saturn Vue, which had full coverage insurance. A couple of weeks ago she slid on ice and crashed into a pole in a parking lot. While she is looking at the damage, a bus comes along, slides on the ice and clips her car and pushes it further into the pole. The insurance adjuster declared the car totaled. With the money she collected from her insurance, she was able to get Chevy Trax on a 2 years lease, which she prepaid. Now she has a new car, no car payment, and time to decide her next move regarding another car. Glad she kept her car fully insured.
  4. My nephew and his wife, both college graduates and employed, just told the family they are expecting their first child in June. After many happy congratulations texts and phone calls, they admitted they are happy and terrified. So it's not necessarily crazy for Haley's character to react like she has.
  5. I'm out!! I'll come back after the mid-season break, when I assume the "let's get Boden" arc for this season, will be over.
  6. So sorry tiftgril. Sending you endless virtual hugs.
  7. Talk about different strokes. I've never been a fan of Dylan, so I can't get with the Dylan love.
  8. Because they are too busy coming up with ideas for the next time Boden's job is in jeopardy.
  9. Are the writers so short on storylines that they have to have a Boden's job in jeopardy/51 under scrutiny plot every season? How can so many of the highers up in the department have a vendetta against Boden or 51? This is getting old!!
  10. In 2013/14 I visited my son and his family in Houston. They had a three bedroom house and four children. I was going to be there for three to four months. I stayed at an extended stay hotel. Free WiFi, TV, a kitchenette, maidservice, and a bathroom. It cost $700 a month. I don't understand how people pay $700 for a ROOM in someone's apartment!! I realize prices vary by location but it is still better option than living with a loon.
  11. In the sixties I dated a young man whose father was a big wig in the union and his mother was doctor. When each of their three kids turned eighteen they gave them $5,000 in cash to keep on hand in case of emergencies. The parents kept a larger amount in cash (in a safe) for the the same reason. This was over fifty years ago and it's still mind boggling to me. I'm sure Judge Judy would not believe this either. My sister in law still keeps large amounts of cash in her house in a family member needs cash in a hurry.
  12. OT: meowmommy try downloading the Hiya app to your cell phone, names show up on the calls.
  13. Her sentence wasn't necessarily surprising. It is one of the problems with the justice system. Race, economic status, and/or connections often play a part in sentencing. Sometime it's not a level playing field.
  14. I had tried to watch Hot Bench when it started but after watching an episode or so, I bailed. Now since TPC is in reruns and I can't watch JJ anymore, I decided to give the show another try. I've watched 4-5 episodes (all new to me) and I can't believe JJ has anything to with this show. From the small sample I've seen, the judges appear to be more in tune with the real world and they have a sense of humor. I don't think I'll watch it on a regular basis but it is a refreshing change.
  15. I thought the "cabin" case was on TPC.
  16. @stewedsquash you are welcome. Enjoy!!
  17. Maybe I'm getting sensitive but I have to say am uncomfortable with calling the litigants "savages" and "animals". There should be better descriptors to use without sounding so offensive.
  18. Bookbub and Digitalbookspot are sites where you can download free ebooks. I like both sites because they ask for your preferred type of books (mine are cozy mysteries) and the free books are tailored to your preference. Of course they send other types too but the majority are in your preferred area. I have a Kindle and an older Nook and I have a large library on both device thanks to these sites. Some of the ebooks may cost between 99 cents to $2.99, but I stick with the freebies.
  19. Bad, bad, bad, on every level. No even my favorite, Phil, could save this wreck of an episode.
  20. Biden probably won't do that. Someone else will expose Grissom when for the ninety-ninth time they try to fire Boden and/or close 51.
  21. Several years ago a possum got in my daughter's fenced yard. We can only assume the when her two labs were let out, they discovered the possum. My son-in-law found the possum's remains the early next morning when he was leaving for work. It was gruesome. Of course, the possum wasn't someone's pet but the point is that what the dogs did was instinct, no one's fault. The plaintiff, in her griet, needed to blame someone.
  22. Baghaggis so sorry for your loss.
  23. I haven't watched JJ in a few weeks because she was really annoying me. Today I went to visit a friend and she was watching JJ. I sit down and JJ ask the plaintiff what year was his car, he said 2013, she says "so you had liability insurance" the plaintiff responds "no I had full coverage because there was a note on the car". Why the hell would she think a person (who actually has insurance) wouldn't have full coverage on a 4-5 year old car? She really doesn't have any concept of how the non one percent lives. Don't know how the case ended because I went and sat on the porch until the show was over.
