I think once the check is cut the car is never fixed. Instead you find an unscrupulous body shop willing to fabricate an invoice for the insurance company for a share of the payout.

Guys, guys, guys…I need the name calling, the insults, the strawman arguments, the DRAMA…what is this “Thanks” and “no problem” crap all about?

/s if it wasn’t obvious

Edit: Apparently one person doesn’t have a sense of humor. Yay!

“Tryin’ to catch me…” [server error - Please contact the Site Admins for support]

Oof, now that’s a big fail

Easy solution: Town should say yes, but charge $650 million.

They should pull a TicketMaster: $30k for staffing and a $649,970,000 “facility fee”.

Soju ranges from 12%-54%. Plus, soju is not well-distilled; it has impurities that vodka does not.

Edited: We’re likely both right. I was in Korea in 1999; back then the alcohol ABV values were quite a bit higher than today. I am also going to guess that the soju ABV content was skewed quite high around the Army bases. For reasons. I also could be wrong. It’s been known to happen.

Thanks for offering your perspective and some history

I read that sentence in my head in a Dwight Schrute voice.

Mom: “We have CERN particle accelerator at home.”

Jesus, buy that woman a kickstand

It’s designed to keep the prongs from collapsing or extending during manufacturing and shipping.

“Hmm, new compound, eh? Let’s taste it.”

I’d give you Lemmy Gold if it existed!

I agree, the headline is unclear. It should be “gets her bag stolen” or as you suggested, “had her bag stolen”.

Better yet, the main object of this sentence, her bag, should be at the front of the headline. “Bag stolen from Britain’s Crime Minister” is funnier (in my opinion), more concise, and eliminates the “where”, which can be put in a byline/sub-headline, or just left in the article as a gem for the reader to find.

Agreed. The best part of Dave Matthews went into the Chicago River.

He must be…he’s celebrating his 35th wedding anniversary this year.

But really, how can you say no to that face?

And in case you think ‘hero’ is too good a label for JBJ, check out his foundation, what he’s done and continues to do, for folks in impoverished communities.

I’ve not met the guy but I can only imagine he’s a class act.
