I threw a birthday party at a roller rink a couple of times, where you paid per guest. It was nothing like $30 a head, and they only charged for the number of people who showed up and ate there (on top of a base rate). Still, I've learned that even if you ask for an RSVP on an invitation, only about 10% of families will bother. If I used a venue where I had to pay for each person's reservation, you better believe I would call each and every invitee the night before the paying deadline and ask if they were coming or not.
I never had any Bratz dolls, so I was surprised that the doll face is so generically-shaped that such modeifications could be done at all. Apparently the eyes and the lips of the Bratz dolls aren't really shaped like that -just painted.
The hostess totally lost sight of the purpose of a child's birthday party. If you must stress your invitees about the cost, you cannot afford that type of party. And it isn't necessary.
That one about Kentucky is true, except for the part about having a feast. That's an exaggeration. It was just a couple of good old boys who were trying to show off how smart they were by identifying the meat by its taste.
That's the case in too many places. Zoning laws exist for a reason, and waivers should be hard to get for those who want to make a buck at the expense of the community. However, there should be a way to get waivers and exceptions for projects that improve the community and help its most vulnerable citizens.
Lisa, you've gone the extra mile to respond to the comment. I was about to just say we don't research every item from every list we link to for accuracy.
