I'm sorry to query the list about this when I know it's been done before. Anyone have a compiled list of previously recommended roofers? I could use one....

Hi neighbors, I'm looking for house cleaner recommendations. I recall seeing several come across the list several weeks ago, but I wasn't in the market then and didn't save them. We're looking for someone to come once a month. Thanks. Max Junker

[Highland Park] Suspicious person near park entrance
by Susuboombatz＠aol.com 05 Feb '10

05 Feb '10

Wanted to share this with all of you.... this afternoon, (Thursday 2/4) around 1:00pm, I was driving on Bunker Hill headed towards the lower reservoir. I noticed a male, walking slowly and carrying a rake and broom......I thought it was really strange so I turned around near the tennis courts and saw him on Greystone knocking on the doors of a couple of the first houses on that street. I drove to the entrance of the park and pulled over near the water fountain and watched him. He proceeded to walk on N. Highland and go to a couple more houses so I then parked across the street from the one house he was at for more than 5 minutes.... then I called 911. I explained it was a non-emergency call - just something was suspicious in the area. The 911 operator asked me for a description, etc., and while I was talking to her; he walked to the houses on Bunker Hill - in the 'no outlet' section... I could see he went to the first home there; but I wanted to finished my call to the operator before following him again. After my call - I drove around the park to see if I could spot him; no luck so I drove on the 'no outlet' part of Bunker Hill to see if he was still around. I made it to the end and could not see him; but as I turned around in someone's driveway, I saw him on the street below... I guess he walked down the steps that have a red railing (I have lived here a LONG time and never been on that part of Bunker Hill nor did I know there were steps there!!) anyway; he was walking on that street. Is that part of High Park Place ?? He ended up walking slowly towards the steps; I suppose to go back onto Bunker Hill; but by that time I was late for my appointment and hoped the police would be around to maybe check him out, etc. Just wanted to remind everyone to lock EVERYTHING!! Homes and vehicles!! Just be aware of everyone! His description: male; about 19 to 23 yrs old; African-American; thin build; about 5' 7" to 5' 9"; clothing: black hoodie with white design on front; black pants and black work boot style footwear. Thanks much! also- thanks to the HP Community Council meeting on 1/21 where Zone 5 police and detectives were on hand to talk about the recent car and home incidents. The one detective said while he was outside waiting for the meeting to start he and the other detectives saw a young male going to a house right across from St. Andrews Church (meeting site) and he had a rake......if I recall correctly the detectives then went to the home and the homeowner did not know the youth.....I do not recall if any more was said about that situation.

[Highland Park] wanted: short-term lease on furnished apt.
by William Hula 04 Feb '10

04 Feb '10

A colleague is moving to Pittsburgh to take a job at the hospital where I work, and he's coming alone while his family stays behind in Texas to sell their home. He's in the market for a furnished (at least minimally) apartment convenient to Oakland, for a month-to-month or short-term lease. I'll pass along any replies I get to him. Thanks, Will
