Seems like a good way to find deals on cars. I absolutely expect my friend to do this again in a few years when he no longer lives in New Orleans and can have a nicer car without worrying about on-street parking and potholes.

A friend of mine bought a salvage title for a vehicle that was stolen and then found. His explanation (and I know nothing about this world so I have no idea if it is true) was that when a car is stolen and missing for an extended period of time, the car is written off as salvaged because they dont know what was done…

But what has there been to operate while it has been stationary for 2 months. I’m not saying there isn’t stuff that needs to be done, but that would be helpful information when to the general public it seems like those guys are just sitting around playing cards and watching tv, and if so why do they have to do it on…

Since I’m not getting any of the furniture anyway, my only complaint is the countertops (not a marble fan), but since it doesn’t seem too gaudy I could live with it for a while. But I have always preferred white paint (maybe an accent wall) and I like the color of the cabinets and floors, which is what I’m really…

I hate “warm” yellow-ish lighting and put “sunlight” lighting LEDs anywhere I can.

Does 100 miles from international waters county as well?

I would have said enclosed golf cart, but point stands.

Here in Miami a woman accidentally sent her car off a local ferry in the Port of Miami inlet. When divers finally reached the car, her and her passenger were found in the backseat holding each other, I’m sure scared out of their minds, trying to find the last little pocket of air, but probably knowing it was a futile…

As the son and grandson of woodworker hobbyists, my god is this accurate.

State Farm screwing over my parents after Hurricane Andrew in 1992 (they dropped all homeowners but would happily keep auto or anything else). On principal my parents never used them again, even if it might have saved a few bucks on car insurance, etc. That mindset passed on to me and I have never even considered them…

All I see is batmobile and was trying to see if anyone else said it before I posted.

Agreed. You would think cops do not want the regular population armed for this exact reason. If we find the victim was armed, but was legally carrying, and of course we will never know for sure what they were thinking now, but seems reasonable to think hey I’m about to get jumped, let me defend myself and “stand my…

I cant watch the video at work, but unmarked car and police in street clothes (which is what it sounds like these cops were from the article) cannot expect to be treated like cops when they run up on people.

My parents have been married 44 years. They each have separate checking accounts - I don’t think any are joint. They can each use the other’s credit cards as needed, but it was always my dad paid mortgage and other similar bills, mom did groceries, dining out, and kid expenses. Their salaries weren’t even that…

God I wish they started something like this so there would be one more strike against the “they took our jobs” crowd. I dont see them asking to work the farms in Florida and now many of those farms cant find labor at the wages they “need” to pay to be profitable (that says something else about their business model)…

The Hyundai dealership in Doral was like that, at least a couple years ago when I was looking at Palisades when they first came out. Don’t know if they ever made a permanent structure for them.

Fair, I should have been clear that I am not assuming they are not legal residents, just that I think right wingers will make that assumption and those statements, whether they are or are not legal residents (even if it is actually proven they are legally here).

Exactly. Without comments what is the point? Now all I will have is the Defector comments.

I’m amazed at how well that works

The “they took our jobs” crowd will say it should have been legal US residents doing the work, but I dont see a whole lot of them wanting these god awful jobs. We run on immigrants being willing to do the jobs the rest of us dont want, and for the good or bad, being willing to do it for less pay than we would be…
