"This woman has been doing this "scam" for a while.  The police want to be notified when she's around.  This was discussed at one of our monthly meetings with Dist. 13 officers."

"Thanks for the tips, I'll give them a try. Once I write a letter to the owner of Joy Rice I'm going to throw away their menu to make sure I don't "weaken" at some point in the future. LOL."

I've ordered my last meal from Joy Rice Cafe on Wash. St.  About a year and a half ago they got a new "chef".  The minute I opened the box I knew it had changed.  It was not as good and was prepared diffferently.  I waited several months and tried again.  Food not bad.  It gripes me that they have a $10.00 minimum for delivery and have a $2;00 del. charge on top of that.  But -- I know that and deal with it.  Today my order came to just under $10.00 and ended up costing me $12.00 but that's my…See More

Scam

Read about this a while ago. Yesterday early a.m. a woman came into my office with a sob story. She had gotten out of her car to mail a letter and dropped her keys in the sewer. She called the sewer dept. but their trucks were busy cleaning out pipes. Her three kids ( this woman was far beyond child bearing age) were in the car. The locksmith was charging her $49.95 to make new keys and she only has $25.00. Could I lend her $25.00 until 11:00? When I asked where her car was she ignored that…See More
