This is a great reminder of not jumping to conclusions without having all of the facts. The cell phone video suggests a much different picture than what actually happened.  

Always good to hear from the 5-year olds.

I always love hiring moving companies - my fiance and her sister hired a mover, they went to a large company as they wanted a reputable mover, the contract was signed with them and upon moving day another company showed up- a piano mover in fact, the packed up everything and my fiance’s sister was uncomfortable as…

Her route includes 6 days and all miles in the quote, along with a hefty $1300 one-way the wrong way surcharge.

I just read through the whole complaint. Damn, it’s even worse than this article makes it out to be. What’s really telling is that the top brass were repeatedly informed about the problems - the DFEH tried to resolve this without litigation and Activision had multiple companies do audits over workplace discrimination…

“It seems more like an attempt a suicide, with the idea of “if God wants it””

It seems more like an attempt a suicide, with the idea of “if God wants it” or something inane. Regardless of her “tribulations,” driving down a street at triple digit speeds and no attempt to control the vehicle was not going to end well - this ended up being he best possible outcome in that no one was significantly…

Just here to say that a Karaoke version of Yello’s Oh Yeah is a phenomenally horrible idea and Parnell SELLS it. (“It” being what a bad idea it is.)

IIRC, former NJ Gov Tom Kean came from a very well to do family. When Standard Oil was parted out, Kean’s family were “knighted” as Standard Oil of NJ, making them extremely wealthy. I do not recall Tom Kean ever had a real job in business, he chose to go the Kennedy route and claim public service as his vocation.…

The bottom line in criticizing a business should be, were the customers well served or not? By that standard, and by the environmental standards of the time, SO did a pretty good job. In hindsight, people should have focused more on the environment and less on the monopoly aspect.  

I admit, I use a C-clamp still for most normal single or dual piston calipers.

Wow, what a waste of brake fluid and clean up time. Unless you're planning to flush your brakes, just reset the piston(s), and push the fluid back up to the master cylinder.

Standard was eventually broken into smaller companies which resulted in Rockefeller becoming even richer.

I’m glad she found him, whipped his ass, got her car back and lived to tell it on video. My friend is laughing at this because a fool stole the battery from my car when the temperature was in the low teens.

This will be the truck driver's Longest Day, for he has moved A Bridge Too Far.

They should have given them mandolines and enjoyed the show....woulda been like the opening scene from Blade

A tourniquet can be made of cheesecloth and a chicken bone.

“Denise [Van Outen] can’t use sharp knives, so she used blunt knives for everything”

As they say in the video. This isn’t a radiator circulating hot coolant through an internal combustion engine. It’s not even 2psi of pressure.
