” Let he among us without sin be the first to condemn”?

This is a quote from the musical Rent. I think people who condemn those of us who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered should think about themselves before they condemn us for being who we are. Do you agree?
Yes I am aware that this quote is (somewhat differently) in the bible but I like the word condemn so I used that quote.
Ester - Did you not read that I quoted Rent, not the bible?
Helen - Being *** is NOT A CHOICE. And for the 3rd time, I did not quote the bible I quoted Rent.

Is it legal to rent out a room or a condo if you don’t have a landlord’s license?

…Specifically, in Oregon, if the laws differ by state.

Thank you.

Help me go over my budget for an apartment? Anyone? Is $250 enough for food and whatever?

I am thinking of moving out out of my moms house and I am working out my budget.. so far this is what I have…

I get about 1200-1300 a month, but 1200 is the absolute lowest I ever make.

Rent - 629 (Includes all utilities but water)
Water - 15 ( Flat Rate )
Car Insurance - 100
Gas - ~80-90/Month (might be less since I am moving closer to work)
Cell Phone - 70

That leaves me with $306 - I am considering getting High Speed Internet and Digital Cable, but that would only leave me with about 210. Is 210 enough for food and stuff (Tp, Toothpase, Deoderant, ect) or should I skip the interet and cable? I can live with dial up if I have too, I used to have it before, and its like what $10 a month? I might just fork out the $30 a month for internet instead, that way I can download TV shows and put them on DVD’s?

What do you guys think? 306 a month enough for food and stuff?

Leaving a Month to Month Lease. What about my last months rent? (Cali)?

Hi,
Heres my question:
Three people are renting a house on a month to month lease. The landlord has last months rent and a deposit from each person. I took my name off the lease, the remaining roomates are willing to sublet my room after I am gone. I know I have no way to get my deposit back until they all move out, but what about my last months rent? Can I use that for my actual last month living there? Or do I have to leave that with the landlord and get the sublet person to reimburse me?

Would it be cheaper to buy a Costa Rica vacation package from Hotels.com or separately?

I’m planning a short trip to Costa Rica for about 5-6 days. Would it be cheaper to buy a vacation package deal from hotels.com or buy airfare separately online and then book hotels locally when I get there? Where would be a good and cheap place to stay in San Jose and Quepos? What are the availability around this time of year? What is the best traveling method from San Jose to Quepos?
