Can I just put a mailbox up without permission?

admin — Wed, 28 Apr 2010 13:34:28 +0000

We live in a rural area and our house is right in the middle part of a "Y" in the road. We have about an acre and a half and our driveway goes from one road to the other. Our address and mailbox for some reason is at the road at the back side of our house. This makes it weird because people coming to my house arrive at the back and think it is the front. Then they start knocking on my basement door.

I went to the post office to ask them about it and they told me to call "911" because they were the ones who assigned addresses. So I called and explained. They offered to change my address to 211 on the other street which is in front of my house but said I would have to change it on all of my credit cards, mortgage paperwork, …everything. That would be very complicated at this point.

My questions is, Why cant I just keep the address I have and ALSO put up a mailbox on the road at the front of my house with the numbers 211 on it? The mailman drives that road anyway and it would be on the correct side of the street for him as well. Is there anything illegal about doing this? So is it legal to just put up a mailbox without asking permission?

Additional Details
I run a small business from home and therefore have more traffic than normal coming to my house for the first time. I do have a sign on the basement door but no-one seems to read it… But at the same time I don’t like people driving up from the back because it is not landscaped like the front. Also, I don’t think I can just move the mailbox I have because the two streets have different names and totally different addresses. I think the real issue here is guiding new visitors to my house to the front of my house and not the back.

If you use the same address you can put up as many mail boxes as you want, you only need permission if you want a different address.~

worried/neighbor issue…?

admin — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 06:40:24 +0000

Ok, I’m raising my 15 y/o sister, alone,in rural western maryland and am very worried about my sister’s safety, let me explain..This guy, in his early 30′s, moved into the house next to us( about 20 yards away), he was in prison for 2 years due to drugs,and he is involved with a kkk type group, he always has his buddies over and they’re always outside working on cars and stuff , these guys are major creeps, they started yelling sexual stuff to my little sis when she is outside, My boyfriend and I talked to him about it once and he was polite and said he understood, the next day I woke up and found my tires slashed and our mailbox gone, also, really strange smells come from the house when he has windows open, (it almost made me gag once), and he is beginning to fill his yard with junk, he must have 20 cars around the property. anyhow, my boyfriend said he would stay with us as much as possible, moving isnt an option right now, just looking for ways to deal with this until we can move..

I’d be worried too!!

Call the police if you see anything suspicious. Report everything that happens.

And good luck finding a new home!!

Trance Of The Monarch Butterfly CYBERPUNK Opera Intro – Jakobs Paranormal Diary – Blood Moon Clan

admin — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 19:24:13 +0000

EXCERPT from interview with the PennSYLtranceSYLvania Bloodmoon Clan in the MYSTERIOUS FOG by Juniors Cave Magazine.
Isaac: Elaborate a little about whom were your biggest influences in the music industry and why?
LionStar: My influences are cinema, music, conspiracy theories and the paranormal. I’ll tell you a story. I went to a park across the Susquehanna river located in Marietti Pa with Jennifer. While at the park an old man with a long white beard rode up on a bike to us and started a conversation. He was very nice talking about his life growing up living by the river. Where he worked and so on. Talked about his family. How he was in the military and so on. Then out of the blue he asked us if we had read and believed in the Bible. Sort of jokingly I said I had read the Dead Sea Scrolls. Which I hadn’t at that time. He said then maybe I know of the final book. The scroll that was never found. He began talking about a great 2nd flood coming. A flood not in the Bible. Rattling off things he claimed was never written in Bible but was going to occur but was found in the final book of the Dead Sea Scrolls. He talked of a scroll found that was written by a Susquehannock Indian hundreds of years ago and placed in a cave by the river. We thought he might be crazy at that point. Telling us very strange and interesting stories and so on about the coming end of the world. And of things not written in the Bible. And what will happen on Earth when the final end comes. He spoke of a coming Angel Nation and of Angels coming up the river with Jesus walking on water and all the animals in the area running to the edge of the river as the Angels were to confront an army of Reptilian Demons at the 7 Gates of in Hellam. We sat there listening, wondering who is this guy. After awhile we thought that maybe we should leave and get away from this old man as I thought maybe at some point he was going to pull out his penis or something and show it to us or do something else perverted. Finally we told him it was great listening to his stories and started to leave. We turned around while getting in the car and he seemed to have vanished. While driving home I thought now that was weird.
Later on the next day while reading the Monday York Daily paper, I came across the obituary section and there he was. A picture of him. He had died 2 days before on a Friday. His obituary had everything in it he told us about where he worked. His time in the military. Where is relatives lived and so on. I showed it to Jennifer. This really freaked us out to say the least.
Jakob wrote the song We’re All Going To Heaven on the LP about the ghost.
After that, I began to have strange extremely real and vivid dreams and weird like memories like having a cinematic motion picture reel running through my brain of encountering strange beings at night in my house. Like I was awake and asleep at the same time. I began to get strange phone calls with an unknown caller. I’d answer and no one would speak. I would only hear strange breathing sounds on the other end of the line. Then the roof pounding started. The creaking and pounding on the roof would sometimes go on for hours during the evening and then would stop completely all at once. Sometimes it sounded like a giant bird had landed on the roof. Jennifer would sometimes freak out saying, what in the world is wrong with the roof! During the day Buzzards started to sit on the rooftop of my house. Around 6 to 8 of them. They didn’t seem to be afraid when I went outside to look at them. They would just sit there and stare at me.
I finally received a note in my mailbox. Your in the game was scrolled on a piece of paper. Strange lights began to circle my house at night and once around 6 spheres came into my bedroom and flew around the ceiling. That exact same night a neighbor experienced the spheres up the road called me in the morning to asked if I saw the lights. She said 6 light spheres circled above her barn for around 15 minutes then took off into the night sky. And, then during full moons on winter nights there seem to be strange large tall birdlike creatures in the woods roosting high up in the trees standing on large tree limbs. Silhouettes in the darkness.
I would watch them from a distance from my rural backwoods log home. They seem to be roosting. Almost standing motionless on large tree limbs with their features sometimes blowing in the night breeze. Like ghost figures. Sometimes the trees would make a strange soft like screaming sounds like giant tree limbs being rubbed together. I dared to walk into the woods to investigate.
Which led me to read the Mothman Prophecies. Jakob claims to be able to speak to Buzzards. READ FULL INTERVIEW http://paranormalcinema.com/trumpet-templar/index.php?/blog/1/entry-4-interview-with-the-pennsyltrancesylvania-blood-moon-clan-in-the-mysterious-fog/

Why are mailboxes in my town at the curb instead of at the front door?

admin — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 04:13:37 +0000

We live in suburbia, just 12 miles outside of downtown Los Angeles. The town to the east of us gets its mail delivered to the front door of the house, but our mail goes to boxes at the curb, often across the street. As a result, mail is often stolen here. Why can’t we get ours at the house? Are we living with the heritage of once having been a "rural" community?
I understand that delivering the mail to a curbside mailbox is much easier to a postal employee in a Jeep. What I don’t understand is why the people in the town (Pasadena) next door get theirs at the door, and don’t have to pay more for that service.

Usually because there are no sidewalks on those streets
