Can a Single Member LLC sell its interest to the 'Sole Managing Partner' while in the middle of a lawsuit?

Hi Friends,

HINDSIGHT question; I once had an Fla. LLC where I was the only member making it a single member LLC. The LLC got sued and I was forced to hire a lawyer on a petty BS suit. The cheapest way out was to settle or pay 10's of thousands in Legal Fees.

  • HIND-sight I never thought about this question; Could I have sold the 100% interest in the company to myself?
  • If I was able to do so, I could have represented myself and turn the tables on the plaintiff.

Anyone know the answer to this?

Thanks for your help !

Which doctor should I see -- Cosmetic, ENT or ???

Hi Friends,

I have a deviated septum and have been living with it for decades. This past year, seems that might right side is getting more clogged with all the debris and crap in the air. I use 'apple cider' vinegar mixed with Saline and put a few drops in my nostril 1-3 times everyday to help clear it out. Gives me a little more air, but it still is not 100%.

  • ANYWAY, which doctor do I see for this... I know cosmetic surgeons do this -- but do ENT Dr's operate also?

Thanks for your help!

I want to take my bicycle -- do I need to request a special Car?

I have a bicycle that I want to take with me to the store (not a far ride, maybe 3 miles). Its a regular peddle bike and I can take the front wheel off to make it easy to fit.

I've regularly thrown it in my car and taken it to the beach, etc. BUT MY CAR is in the shop (why I'm riding bicycle).

  • Do I need to request a special vehicle ?

Tom Jones experienced prejudice for being a White singer who loved R&B. Never-the-less he ignored critics by inviting lots of Black artists to perform with him... 1969

"Things were different then," he said. "To get a black female singer on my show… you couldn't do certain songs if it had anything to do with relationships. 

"I couldn't believe it, because in Britain it's not like that... In Britain, on British television shows, I never had any trouble."

IN America things were different.

Tom's of American rhythm and blues helped Welsh singer score international hits and achieve fame and fortune. But, back in 1969, that love also gave him a taste of something far less pleasant.

Jones had just welcomed American singer Wilson Pickett to his TV show This is Tom Jones and had been thrilled with their soulful duet of the Beatles classic Hey Jude.

After post-show drinks, Jones told Pickett how much he loved singing R&B and that's when things got a bit "unlovely."

"He said 'That was an excuse for rhythm and blues,'" Jones recalled in an interview with CBC's The National.

Welsh singer Tom Jones published his autobiography Over the Top and Back in 2015. (Penguin Books )

"I said, 'It didn't seem like that to me.'  

"'No,' he said. 'Because you're white.'" 

Pickett went further. 

"'Before long we're not going to need you. We'll have our own TV shows,' Jones recalled the soul singer-songwriter saying.

"I said, 'Wait a minute. Whoa. What's going on? I just love singing it. You know what I mean?'

Jones is among a wide group of British musicians of the era — from the Rolling Stones to Eric Clapton to Joe Cocker — who were inspired by, embraced and borrowed heavily from black American peers.

He recalled that, as his 1965 hit It's not Unusual climbed the charts in the U.S., one black radio DJ found it hard to believe Jones was actually from Wales.

"'Whoever is singing this song is not white. He may be passing for white, but he's not white,'" Jones recalled the DJ saying.

In the years since, Jones has reinvented himself — singing everything from pop to rock to country. But it's R&B he still seems to cherish the most, harkening back to his days listening to BBC Radio as a child.

Alcoholics and drug addicts --- the damage they do to society ... Did they get away with these crimes ???

Every week I read of some alcoholic, careening into a car full of people who were minding their own business...they were either killed or maimed. Many of these drunks, and drug heads,... Simply shake their heads and say 'sorry!'. Sometimes they get long sentences, but none can make up for the loss and tragedy they caused.

How do these drunks pay for this in the next life... They can simply shrug their shoulders and say 'I'm a drug addict'... I'm a victim too.

It's sickening how many of these losers never face consequences or take responsibility. Many drunks just don't care.

How did they end up being drunks in the first place?

What is their karma?

Funk Master Rick James died today, 24 yrs ago -- he was 56yrs old!

James Ambrose Johnson Jr. was born on February 1, 1948, in Buffalo, New York, to Mabel (née Sims) and James Ambrose Johnson Sr. He was one of eight children. He was an altar boy and choir member at St. Bridget's Catholic Church.

Rick James's father, an autoworker, left the family when Rick James was 10. His mother was a dancer for Katherine Dunham, and later worked as a cleaner in the day, and as a numbers-runner for the Buffalo crime family at night to earn a living.

In 1964, Rick James dodged the US Military draft by fleeing to Toronto. To evade US military authorities, Rick James went under the assumed name "Ricky James Matthews". That same year, Rick James formed The Mynah Birds, a band that produced a fusion of soul, folk, and rock music.

The Mynah Birds, who eventually signed a recording deal with Motown Records in 1966. James's career with the group halted after military authorities discovered his whereabouts and eventually convicted him of desertion related charges. He served several months in jail.

After various stints in local bands, Rick moved to California and got a record deal with MCA in 1972, and released his first album. It was a minor rhythm and blues masterpiece but disappeared almost immediately.

Shorly thereafter Rick moved back to NY and formed the locally popular Stone City Band in his hometown of Buffalo. In 1977, James found success as a recording artist after signing with Motown's Gordy Records, releasing the album Come Get It in 1978 which produced the hits "You and I" and "Mary Jane".

In 1981, James released his most successful album, Street Songs, which included career-defining hits such as "Give It to Me Baby" and "Super Freak", the latter song becoming his biggest crossover single, mixing elements of funk, disco, rock, and new wave. James was also known for his soulful ballads such as "Fire & Desire" and "Ebony Eyes".

He was known as the King of Funk and lived a wild ride life --- eventually succumbing to various health conditions of diabetes, a stroke, pacemaker, and heart attack. His autopsy found alprazolam (Xanax), diazepam (Valium), bupropion (Wellbutrin), citalopram (Celexa), hydrocodone, chlorpheniramine, methamphetamine, cocaine and digoxin (Digitalis) in his blood. However, the coroner stated that "none of the drugs or drug combinations were found to be at levels that were life-threatening in and of themselves --- "He died from pulmonary disease in 2004 at the age of 56."

* Attached is his well-know R&B hit 'Mary Jane' -- an ode to one of his favorite drugs 'Marijuana.'!

Single controlled server with multiple linked websites --- best for SEO?

Hi Friends,

I heard this idea, years ago but NOW, there's several 'gurus' pushing this SEO system.

Here it is ; YOU create Multiple 'small websites' that share links in the same market niche. By linking numerous websites, all focused in one section of town, somehow enables its CREATOR to achieve 1rst page results in their 'business specialty.'

EX. A plumber creates 30 websites all located in his city of choice. All are plumbing service related, service, supplies, etc. He then links them together and 'very soon' he'll start ranking (page 1)for his plumbing services. (so the gurus claim).

PROBLEM; How does he get it done without obtaining all new IP addresses for each site he puts up?

IF HE doesn't, google will surely find him fast and 'Throttle him to hell.'

  • QUESTION(s); are their hosting services that allow 1 user to create numerous IP addresses under 1 party control?
  • If not, would a VPN enable the user to do this?

What do you think -- Thoughts/comments?

Thanks for your help!

Father of Georgia high school shooting suspect convicted of second-degree murder, involuntary manslaughter

IS THIS a new trend --- will they hold parents accountable for their Teenage kids who 'kill people in their cars?'

The father of a Georgia high school shooting suspect was convicted of second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter on Tuesday.

Colin Gray, the father of accused Apalachee High School mass shooter Colt Gray, has been found guilty by a jury in Barrow County.

Colt Gray allegedly killed two 14-year-old students and two teachers during the September 2024 shooting in Winder. 
The father was found guilty on all counts and is facing up to 180 years in prison. He will be sentenced at a later date. 

Gray was motionless, looking down and to the side while seated at the defense table as the guilty verdict was read. Minutes later, deputies placed him in handcuffs and led him out of the courtroom.

Under Georgia law, second-degree murder involves causing the death of a child while committing the crime of cruelty to children. Jurors convicted Gray of second-degree murder in the deaths of the two students and involuntary manslaughter in the killings of the two teachers.

In addition, jurors convicted him of multiple counts of cruelty to children in the second degree and reckless conduct. Colin Gray had pleaded not guilty to all counts.

Finding Electricians or Tradespeople --- all lead to a referral service --- No Real Workers !

While searching for an Electrician, I've noticed 'dozens of generic' photos of Blue collar workers (look like stock photos) of every race and creed and all pointing to similar phone numbers.

I called one of the numbers and talked a female, who asked me 'Do you need an electrician?' --- then 'What city is the work being done?' -- to which I responded 'Who are you and want's your license number?' -- she then confided in me 'We are a referral company' !

Huh?

What do I need a referral company for --- I want to talk to an electrician --- do any of them advertise on Facebook?

What a joke !

Carly Simon Reveals Parkinson’s Disease Diagnosis: ‘I Have Not Stopped Living and I Have Not Stopped Working’ !

Carly Simon has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.

The 83-year-old singer-songwriter, best known for her 1972 hit “You’re So Vain,” revealed the news on Monday in a statement obtained by Variety. “So many people have written to me, kindly wondering about my relative silence, asking how I am and what I have been doing. The truth is, I’ve been learning how to live with Parkinson’s disease,” Simon said.

“It has taken me some time to understand the diagnosis, to adjust to it, and to decide how much I wanted to say about it publicly,” she continued. “Parkinson’s is different for everyone, and it can be unpredictable. Some days I’m so tired I can’t get the day moving at all. On others, it gives me a little more room to move, think, work, and feel like myself.”

Carly is also battling skin cancer and has several treatments and surgery.

We're rooting for Carly -- she's such a nice person and great musician song writer...

Its hard to believe she's 83... !
