[Highland Park] Girl Scout Cookie Orders through Tuesday
by Emily Viehland 22 Jan '12

22 Jan '12

Hi! My girls are selling Girl Scout Cookies. They have canvassed the immediate neighborhood, and would like to ask if any of our further-away neighbors would like to place an order. They have to hand in their sheets this Tuesday (Jan 24). Cookies will be ready for delivery the 3rd week of February, payment due upon delivery. Also at that point, girls will be setting up outside of grocery stores and other locations around town, probably for another 3 weeks. So, if you'd like to place an order, here's what you need to know: 1) Boxes are $4 each; a portion of the proceeds go to local scouts (ie individual troops). 2) Flavors are: Savannah Smiles (lemony), Trefoils (shortbread), Do-Si-Dos (PB sandwich cookie), Samoas, Dulce de Leche (milk caramel chip cookies), Thank U Berry Much (cranberry & white fudge chip cookies), Tagalongs (chocolate coated cookie with PB), & Thin Mints. 3) Write back or call me with the following info: Name, Address, Phone #, Order. Thanks in advance for supporting our local Girl Scouts! --Emily (King Ave) 412-362-5238 http://healthylivingconsultant.info/ 2012 *New Year Resolution* time is here! If you will be working on any of these in the New Year, I may be able to help you with: **Losing weight* **Exercising more* **Simple changes to improve your overall health* **Increasing income* **Gaining time freedom* * *

[Highland Park] Vintage Pinball Machine for sale - UPDATE with Specifications
by Pannny＠aol.com 22 Jan '12

22 Jan '12

Hello again, I'd like to thank all who responded with interest and with information as to where I could obtain additional information about this pinball machine. The sources provided were very beneficial. Because I received an overwhelming interest about the vintage pinball machine I decided to send out another email to the list serve since I now have the details The specs of the machine are: .........1954 Bally Machine Named Gay Times .........It is a bingo machine .........It works, lights up but gets stuck .........It is in the original cabinet with original paint .........It lights up .........Overall it is in very good condition .........It is presently located in New Kensington and would have to be taken from there. .........It needs to be brought up one flight of stairs. .........I would arrange a time convenient for all and be present. The lever is pulled to shoot the ball and then there are buttons that move the balls left, or right. I remember our family playing it and it was a lot of fun. It probably needs to be opened and the bingo holes lubricated which is where the balls get stuck. I'm asking $400 but may be willing to negotiate. Enclosed are photos of the game. Please email me if you are seriously interested in purchasing. I'll be happy to answer more questions as well. thanks again!! the back board of the game: This photo of the playing field was found on the internet. It's a much better photo that I was able to take but it is the exact same playing field. the entire pinball machine the leg of the machine - can easily be removed for easier transport In a message dated 1/1/2012 10:21:51 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, Pannny(a)aol.com writes: Happy 2012 Neighbours! I will have for sale a vintage pinball machine. It's probably from the 1950s.

Currently, I'm in the process of obtaining the information on the manufacturer of the machine, name of game, and condition of it. Please email me if you would be interested or can offer assistance with having it valued. thanks much!

Re: [Highland Park] Please clean-up after dogs.
by msranders 22 Jan '12

Why is everyone being so super polite about this? It is poop. It is gross. And it is rude to leave it lying about. The City of Pittsburgh requires dog owners to clean up after their pets. If you can not afford doggie bags or some other means of cleaning up, then you can not afford to take proper care of your dog in the City of Pittsburgh. Clean up the poop, people. http://www.pittsburghpa.gov/animalcontrol/owners.htm http://www.city.pittsburgh.pa.us/main/assets/stormwater/07_doggydoo.pdf Message: 2 Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2012 11:15:58 -0500 (EST) From: Deb <centersq1(a)aol.com> Subject: Re: [Highland Park] Please clean-up after dogs. To: jaisvolpe(a)gmail.com, neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com Message-ID: <8CEA66F183F5D2C-271C-189C0(a)webmail-d179.sysops.aol.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" As a responsible dog owner/walker myself, I second this request. I have witnessed others allowing their dogs to roam about the street, messing in other people's yards while the owner stands nonchalantly by and does nothing to clean up the mess. I have found feces on my sidewalk leading to my front door, in various places in my yard, and even draped over a beautiful new spring planting! It is really upsetting to me to see this. Our neighborhood is only as beautiful and sanitary and clean as we keep it. Please be a good neighbor and be responsible for your pets. I too, would hate to see someone fined, but am glad to know there is legal recourse. If you cannot afford doggie poop bags, ask one of your neighbors. I am sure someone would be able to help you out. Thanks.
