Sweetbabygirl: You'll often see several abbreviations. The second letters are: H is Husband, W is Wife, S is Son, D is Daughter, BF is Boyfriend, GF is Girlfried, etc. The first letter 'D' can mean darling, dearest, darned, or depending on your mood, a few other descriptive word!

This is the SECOND dumb question I've asked, and this one is shameful, but....what are frequent flyer miles, and how are they good if you are a traveler?

(Note: I've only been on a plane once, and that was to go to New Orleans)

Most airlines offer a frequent flyer program. The number of miles you fly accumulate in your frequent flyer account, and when you get to a certain amount, you can redeem those miles for either upgrades in seating, or free trips.

For example, I have a United frequent flyer membership. If a fly a 2000 mile airline trip, I get 2000 miles in my account. Once I get to 40,000 miles, I get take a free round trip on United anywhere in the states.

There are also other ways to accumulate miles. I have a United Mastercard, so for every dollar I charge, I also get a mile. You can accumulate them thru long distance phone companies, hotel rentals, car rentals too.

Hope that helps!

A post by Mware, commenting on expected snowfall has me wondering...

Why are snowfall amount predictions always in even numbers?

I see 2-4 inches, 10-14 inches, and as Mware posted 24-32 inches.

Why not 7-9 inches, or 21-27 inches?

Okay I'll try again. I lost my last post
This one won't be as long
My questions is this I had a photographer that I hired to do my wedding about 3 1/2 yrs ago
I can not find her to finish my service rendered
her name is on the back of my proofs but she is not listed in the pone book
My Dh knew her as she use to be a photographer at a strip club he usta go to
Well she no longer works there and I can't find her !!
I have tried to copy these pictures at Target or Walmart on those copy machines but she has copy rights and I can not copy till I get a release form or something of that nature
How long are these rights of hers good for ?
Also if I am going to be making my own copies I think I need to get a hold of her as she has not completed her works with me and I would like a lg. amount of money back that she owes me for services not rendered
Any ideas on what my next step should be ??
Do we have any photographers that know about this copy right ?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Halfunit - Ever see an 11 inch ruler in the store?

Halfunit - They are predicting 1-3" of snow here. I've seen odd numbers used frequently. We get snowfall during about 5 months of the year, in case that makes any difference.

Liz - you might try looking at Troubleshooter.com. They are a consumer help service, and an 800 number you can call. They are often helpful in tracking folks down, and they can tell you what your rights might be.

Personally, I'd scan the photos myself to make prints, since she never finished the work and you can't find her.

Thank you so much Karuuna
I thought I killed this thread LOL
almost no response for 5 hrs.
I don't have a scanner and of course I thought about that
But I really think about the money I spent on a profesional photographer (in some ways)
If she would not have been a friend of my DH I would have never hired her
I will try checking out troubleshooter .com
Thanks again

Lizadee: I was researching the question for you but not able to come up with anything. The copyright office in DC is closed today due to incliment weather (I called and got a recording).

I have a friend who owned a photography (both shooting & processing) business for many years that I will be calling this evening. He closed his business a couple of years ago and I would think he would know what became of the photos he's taken over the years.

I'll post back here after I've talked to him.

Until then, if you find your answer at troubleshooter.com, please let us know.

Hey... I know we have a someone on this board who married her BF and they became wedding photograhers together.. but for the life of me I can't think of her name...HELP!

Ok, I just did a search of The Best Date thread because I was pretty sure that was where I saw her story and it's Meggieprice, (I think) Maybe she knows?
