Your story describes why they should be much harsher on violations. You were driving around in a car so poorly maintained it dumped oil on the road. I ride a motorcycle. Vehicles like yours put me in huge danger on a regular basis with oil and coolant leaks on the road surface. Of course you probably did not think…

And this is why I don't cut people a break on registration.

I did a couple of years in prison for drug stuff. You would think that walking out of the prison a free man was the most liberating feeling I have ever had. Incorrect. The most liberated I have ever felt is when, after 6 years of doing some combination of all of these things listed EVERY TIME I DROVE THE CAR, I…

LED lights are not found on police cars.

You hit someone, you're fired. I wish more people understood that. If I deck someone at my office, I expect to be 1.) arrested, and 2.) fired.

This goes beyond “not being a nice person.” He assaulted a producer for the show for 30 seconds. No matter how much money you bring in, workplace violence tends to get people fired.

He should've just molested children for decades. Then they would've protected him as much as possible.

Wow. Wow.

And now because they complained they are a risk to the organization.

Agreed. I can't tell you how many people I've talked to who said they went to HR to complain about something - harassment, racism, unpaid overtime, shitty treatment from a boss, whatever - only to find themselves out on their ass later, and that it's so unfair.

I watched my wife give blood, sweat and tears for a Fortune 50 company, including laying almost all of her team of 50 off. And then they layed her off.

Aren't you a big man? He explained his opinion in detail with a rational, logical argument and all you come up with are baseless character assassinations. Get a clue loser.

Except he actually paid for that and listed Zevon as a co-writer.

The songs sound similar in feel and in vibe. Borrowing feel and vibe is NOT what copyright law is meant to protect. It is meant to protect a specific expression. Imagine if J.K. Rowling could build a case against any author who pens a serial fantasy coming-of-age story about a young boy. Are there not likely thousands…

It is not, stop it. I hate Robin Thicke as much as the next guy, but they are not the same. The most similar elements are: the beat is very close and they both have an electric piano sound. Chord progression is different, vocal melody is different, lyrics are different. And there are plenty of song that share the…

See...people like CrazyWater here are the problem. As a musician, it is quite obvious that there was no ripping off going on. I doubt Pharrell even took any inspiration at all from Gaye's song. To a musical troglodyte like CrazyWater, they sound similar. It's a bit like saying that one book ripped off another because…

This will likely either be overturned on an appeal or settled for some amount of money less than $7.3 million prior to an appeal.

Yeah these suits are insane. The Sam Smith/Tom Petty lawsuit was crazy too - why did Smith have to pay royalties for Stay With Me's resemblance to I Won't Back Down, when Petty has said on record that he didn't care about The Strokes admittedly stealing the riff from American Girl for Last Night, and when the Chili…

Notice how that guy actually made objective musical arguments whereas your only recourse was insult. Are you even musically educated?

Looking forward to Sid and Marty Kroft going after the Marley estate!
