Then I would think that for that to stick, one would have to live by the tenants of their respective religion, one of the oldest laws on the books being thou shall not steal. Perhaps he rendered the warranty null and void?

I'd like to say it's a sad story, but you know if he'd been captured, he'd have been off to his next crime in a matter of days.

[neal1960]

Yes, got that. But didn't understand why. Must have been something he/she said, and I missed it. Getting slow in my old age.
Thanks.

[Tax-chick]

I would think that, too, but the "once saved, always saved" position has a considerable following.

[Tax-chick]

I don't know why ... this comment was odd, but hardly Zotworthy. He/she must have gotten in trouble on another thread.

This year's runaway winner was Mr. Merv Grazinski of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Mr. Grazinski purchased a brand new Winnebago Motor home. On his trip home from an OU football game, having driven onto the freeway, he set the cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the driver's seat to go into the back and make himself a cup of coffee. Not surprisingly the RV left the freeway, crashed and overturned. Mr. Grazinski sued Winnebago for not advising him in the owner's manual that he could not actually do this. The jury awarded him $1,750,000 plus a new Winnebago Motor home. The company actually changed their manuals on the basis of this suit just in case there were any other complete morons buying their recreational vehicles"


An urban myth-no?

There are NO run-down sections in Asheville - but not all are on par with Biltmore Village!

[Ursus arctos horribilis]

Well it was not a SUV homicide, the MSM would not have missed the chance for their mantra of killer SUV's.

[Tax-chick]

An urban myth-no?

I suspect so. The story has been kicking around for several years.

[neal1960]

Hmmmm...Sounds like another Lawn Chair Larry.

[Tax-chick]

My bad ... Snopes.com says versions of this story have been circulated since the 1970's.

[lilylangtree]

Dunno. Rec'd the list Sunday evening via email from my elderly (sometimes risque) auntie who resides in Indiana.

[Tax-chick]

Snopes says they're all fiction, and that the version you posted has been circulating since 2002.

Oh boy, a person who signed up today making pronouncements on what God is and isn't doing.

Apparently God isn't out spotting trolls this afternoon.

BS, I lived there for 7 years from 1993-2000. The section down past Biltmore Village near the college wasn't only not 'on par' with Biltmore Village it was run down. Section just past the main portion of Patton Avenue is not somewhere I would want to be broken down either. Used to be an old fish camp down there on the right going out of town. Other side of Asheville just outside of town, also the section down where the convention center was reasonably not safe. There are several parts of Asheville that were run down and not somewhere I would want my car to break down. Oakley is one of them

[flashbunny]

I spoke to soon....apparently the Mod Gods have struck down this troll...

[flashbunny]

and I used the wrong version of 'too'. Doh!

[lilylangtree]

Thank you!

[Old Professer]

He can have him.

[trubluolyguy]

Hehehehehe.


Gotta love that instant karmic retribution.
