😃 😊 😀  Police Identify Body Found in Erie Canal in Fairport Over the Weekend PUBLISHED 12:34 PM ET Nov. 02, 2020 FAIRPORT, N.Y. — Police have released the identity of a body that was pulled from the Erie Canal over the weekend. Someone walking along the towpath made the discovery on Sunday. Police are currently awaiting autopsy results on Michael Parry, 61, of Fairport. They do not believe foul play was involved in his death. So, I even helped Mike Parry on the last day he lived. He called me on Saturday afternoon, if I could read a letter from housing authority. He was put on waiting list. I gave him some butane for his lighter.  I sat at the Perinton Park pavilion with Mike & his buddy for about 1hr 15m, talking about World Series, the Bills, The Jets, the weather change , the religious inspirational text messages I sent, him going to Mass at COTA , etc. Last I saw him was at 6pm , as they were walking on canal path to village . I called the Fairport PD ...

# 17. I was always afraid to do so, especially in high school.😀 #24 Mom always defeated me when I challenged her to tennis. 😉 RULES TO TEACH YOUR SON /DAUGHTER  1.

In a negotiation, never make the first offer. Blackjack Stand when your hand is 12-16 when the dealer has 2-6.  5. Request the late check-out. Why not ? 6. When entrusted with a secret, keep it. Children do better, than adults.  7. Hold your heroes to a higher standard. 💯  8. Return a borrowed car with a full tank of gas. Without question. 9. Play with passion or don’t play at all.

UBER, TAXES, JUDGING OTHERS

October 17, 2017 UBER, TAXES, JUDGING OTHERS.. Friends, family, Much in the news & social media these days about harassment. But, something else has been bothering me. At a recent meal out in a restaurant , the discussion was about Uber, cost, convience & tipping etc. I said I have had pleasant experiences and that tipping is now allowed. Drivers have always been polite and on time.  I also stated that Uber failed to educate their drivers that driving costs, gasoline, maintenance etc are tax deductible , or by the use of a flat mileage expense. I said my recent driver was a young Afro American woman, and she had no idea. I quickly educated her on this, she knew she had to declare income because Uber provides a 1099, but knew nothing about deducting expenses. One in my party scoffed , and said "Yeah, if she even files an income tax return " I said the IRS will follow up on 1099 income statements issued by UBER. The person in my party answered with a laugh, yeah righ...
