I'm busy and I don't have time to look for my checkbook." - Stephen, VA "I was in jail for 30 days and wasn't even there this month! Why should i pay if i wasn't there? Only my dog was there so maybe i will pay a small portion of the rent since he is a small dog!" -David L. Kona, Hawaii "There are rust stains developing on the toilets and they won't come out. My plumber says you need to replace these two toilets, so I will hold back the rent for the two new toilets."
