THAT NEWBORN HAD IT COMIN’

I’m hopeful—and I’m an eternal pessimist.

Can I at least judge him for his offensive sartorial choices?

Cohen was listed as the defense attorney for four people charged of staging at least 10 accidents from 2000 to 2001 as part of a fraud ring.

And his base will respond with, “that kid probable deserved it for being a liberal, it’s not like our lord and savior Donald Trump performed an abortion. What? He paid for a porn star’s abortion? Um, well he is a changed man who has found god. What? That happened a week ago? FAKE NEWS!!1!!!”

2nd Gear: Wait, so the company with no realistic production plans claims that is lost 2 billion in sales based on the cosmetic appearance of competitor’s truck? Despite the fact that most of the design elements they claim as proprietary seem to be lifted right off 6-year old MAN streamlined prototype?

I would like to interrupt the Uber hate a little to remind everyone that traditional taxi companies were no picnic either. I do appreciate the presence of Uber in pushing change in the industry, and pushing to change outdated local ordinances that were anti-competitive. In my local metro area, taxi ordinances that…

It’ll be a moot point soon enough:
