The ED-iot Strikes (#0g) & Fox Management Group (#88)

All quiet on the ED-iot front.
Putting the signage in a frame seems to have stopped ED-iot's vandalism.

Wednesday's total for Fox Management Group's still-unpaid bill...winding up the year at $187.66, from an original $75! (No billing for New Years' Day, but Friday will be billed.)
I'm undecided as to what to do at year's end; take it as a write-off loss on my taxes, sic the Better Business Bureau-suggested collection agency on Mara, or...both?

Merry Christmas!

It's doubtful the ED-iot will learn his lesson even as Scrooge did...

The ED-iot Strikes (#24) & Fox Management Group (#84)

I encased the poster in a plastic box frame and mounted it on the door.
If the ED-iot tries to remove it, he's in for a surprise!
Well, he removed it, but since it was inscribed "stolen by Eddie Foss" on the back of the frame, he just left it in the hallway on the floor!

Wednesday's total for Fox Management Group's still-unpaid bill...$180.25, from an original $75!

The ED-iot Strikes (#21,22 & 23) & Fox Management Group (#82)

The ED-iot struck thrice, Saturday and Sunday morning, then Monday between 1-2pm.
After stealing 23 posters, you would think even an ED-iot would have the brains to realize his tactics are ineffective...
Nonetheless, he has a surprise waiting if he tries to remove any more of them...

Mail has come and we're still waiting on the assessment bill for January, 2009, with the 5% increase the Board voted to impose so their buddy, art therapist Eddie Foss, could retain his $10 a month basement living space instead of renting it to us for $150 a month (an income increase of over 1,400%)...
I believe Mara Fox is using the same tactic as the credit card companies, sending the invoice late so that payment is received late, thus allowing her to impose a late charge.
(Plus, I think it likely that the invoices are arriving late so as to prevent people from noticing that the assessments have gone, up until after Christmas, at which point, the billpayers will be so frantic to get bills paid they won't even notice the increase!)
Of course, we send payment via Priority Mail (with Delivery Confirmation) before the 1st of the month, whether we receive an invoice or not. (The postage is tax-deductable.)
For the record, Mara Feldman-Fox tried this trick on us once before, and had to retract the late fee and apologize since we had documentation of on-time payment!
She won't get away with it, with us at any rate!

Monday's total for Fox Management Group's still-unpaid bill...$176.70, from an original $75!

The ED-iot Strikes (#20) & Fox Management Group (#81)

The ED-iot struck early this morning. By 6:30am the poster was gone. Of course it was replaced...

The ED-iot Strikes (#0b) & Fox Management Group (#79)

No poster removal for the past couple of days.
It's probably because the ED-iot's entered and exited thru the back, and hasn't passed thru the lobby area.

The ED-iot Strikes (#16 & 17) & Fox Management Group (#77)

The ED-iot struck again, before 8 am on Sunday morning and 7am on Monday morning, both times just as Eddie Foss was in the hallway.
Interpret as you will!

Monday's total for Fox Management Group's still-unpaid bill...$168.13, from an original $75!
Will they top $200 before the end of the year? Probably not.
I don't count weekends or holidays. So Christmas is a no-bill day. However, I do count Christmas Eve and Boxing Day after, which is a Friday...

The ED-iot Strikes (#0) & Fox Management Group (#75)

Posters were not removed as of blog-posting time (about 6pm).
Perhaps the ED-iot has learned his lesson.
Personally, I wouldn't bet on it.

Considering a new poster.
Perhaps a tie-in with Frost/Nixon...
Asked "Isn't what you did illegal?", who said...
"When the President does it, it's NOT illegal?"
Was it
President Richard M. Nixon?
Board President Eddie Foss?
...or BOTH?
I like that...

The ED-iot Strikes (#14) & Fox Management Group (#73 & 74)

The ED-iot didn't strike until today, coinciding with Eddie Foss' arrival.
Interpret as you will.

Intend to use the Blagojevich arrest for a new poster comparing George Ryan, Rod B, & Eddie!
How about...
George Ryan--GONE!
Rod Blagojevich--GOING!
Eddie Foss--SOON TO GO???
Needs work, but the concept's valid...

The ED-iot Strikes (#0) & Fox Management Group (#69)

Not, it's not a typo.
Eddie Foss is home. His blue Toyota sits just outside my window, yet the signage on my door is still intact as of 3:15 pm! So the #0 numbering in the header is correct, so far!
Has the Ed-iot learned his lesson?
We'll see...

UPDATE 4pm...Eddie's car is gone and so is the sign on my door! (I'll add it to tomorow's total. I don't want to change the header.) A new poster has already gone up.
In other news, the FOX-XX SUV is here as is Kommissar Krengelis with an elderly, but distinguished, white-haired man. Could he be Stuart Fox? (The number between 50-75 could be his age!)
