    How much is a two bedroom apartment (nice one with amenities and safe neighborhood) run in your neck of the woods? Just out of curiosity. I lived a block away from the Queen Mary, and in 1994 it was $1150 per month rent for two bed two bath. Couldn't imagine what it is now.

    I pay $1,050 ++ in the Portland area. I recall my aunt saying she paid something like $1,500 in San Diego in the early 90's.

    I have no Idea. I don't live in a city. My son pays about $900/month room and board to live on campus in Portland.

    What can I say, it has been around for a while.


    A thought on how to look at unions, Contractual Labor VS At will employees who do not have a contract.

    Rent a apartment, you need a contract
    Small load, you need a contract
    This forum is a contracted service.

    Yet something as employment is not contracted. A friend use to work for car dealership as a manager, he needed a contract 'cause the dealer was always changing the rules on how he was paid.

    I've changed addresses and have to register down here. I'm really surprised at the ourcome of most of the measures. Ordie must be having a freaking heart attack.

    You need to return home soon as we are circling the wagons. Bring water and decent magazines.

    Noooo! That will send them over here and they may decide to stay.

    It's either refugee ship or sealed boxcars, like Lenin.
