so bored...
Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet.. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and, with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. This made him a super calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.

Well, you know. I do what I can.
So I'm selling a phone on craigslist...a guy calls me this morning wanting to buy my phone...I go to meet up with him at a QT gas station in Decatur, Ga....to make a long story short, there were two guys and they robbed me for my phone and drove off.........well....long story short....my car is faster than theirs and they quickly found out that I had an assault rifle in the car...my phone was promptly returned to me. Then next thing I know, I get a call a few hours later from someone telling me they saw my story on the news...but the guys who robbed me are on the news crying victim (saying they got robbed). Well anyway I went to Dekalb County Police and showed them the receipt for the purchase of the phone, craigslist ads, and online auction ads, and I easily proved I own the phone. Now there's a warrant out for the arrest of the guy who is on the news pretending to be a victim. Moral of the story: You guys out there who use Craigslist..BE CAREFUL!!....especially in Atlanta.
Here's a link to the story (this is what the robber told them): http://www.wsbtv.com/news/28442577/detail.html
Update: The guy who gave the bogus news story is now in police custody (as of 9pm last night) and is facing robbery charges. I interviewed with the reported today and they will broadcast an updated story today. I will post it up when it airs.
Update:
The robbers are in police custody now and Channel 2 news has aired the corrected story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tTwkq8usas
wow, what a great story.
Which ever way it went... BBC son, BBC.
omfg thats epic, there are LOTS of craigslist robberies (myself included, but got my laptop back), and i love hearing the retaliation stories, this is on the top 3 for sure
EDIT: just read the article, wtf is wrong with the media?!? they still make it seem like you are the bad guy, id demand a redaction or reprint with the facts
THUG LIFE!

Yeah I spoke with Tom Jones over at Channel 2 and informed him of what really happened and the fact that the police will be picking him up (if they haven't already). I also pointed out to him the inconsistencies in his story (the same inconsistencies the detectives noticed from the beginning). He said, when they ran the story they weren't able to speak to anyone besides the guy who robbed me...so they didn't have anything real to go on....my thing is if you couldn't do any fact checking then why the heck did you run the story?!....
hahaha thats hilarious, they were speaking to the CRIMINALS, and let them go anything for a story
at least it had a happy ending!
Story is confusing. It starts of correct talking about the seller got robbed but half way through the article they make it seem like the buyer went after the seller with a gun.

Yeah he's definitely a dumb criminal. He could have just left, and we would have only had a phone number to go on, and probably would never have caught him. But because he was dumb enough to get on the news, and make a false statement to the police, they have his information. And as it turned out, HE HAD PRIORS TOO! lol The cops showed me a picture lineup and had me pick him out. Now he'll soon be behind bars where he belongs.

i bought my S4G off craigslist, cash in hand, and the system ive worked out for buying/selling work pretty well for tech.
i got him to put my sim in the new fone, turn it on and show its carrier unlocked, if all is well, do the handoff, let him count the ducketts, and we were on each others way in less than 5 min
also it was done in a subway station, so lots of ppl, lots of cameras and a friend standing nearby nonchalantly
but if you have an assault rifle, he is your best friend in that situation

I took the plunge a few years back and had a three piece suit custom tailored for me. It fits me like a glove, as I haven't expanded or contracted since high school. But it doesn't work for every occasion, because I chose brown polyester, no lie. I look like a banker from the 70s, but I like to think I pull it off.

I've got a tux for xmas work do's, and just bought a 3 piece suit for my wedding this saturday.
£72 from Jacomo with their 25% discount on first orders
i wear a suit everyday for work. I currently own 14 suits (seven summer / seven winter) so i can have two at the dry cleaners every week while rotating through five. Then I buy 2 new suits every 10 months and ditch the oldest. Even though i live in Philly, i have a tailor in NYC who makes them for me. The pricing all depends on materials selected and since i go through them so quickly, I generally get a medium grade. Custom suits are the way to go because a good tailor can hide some little weight changes.
Oh, i also own three tuxes. Not custom, just bought them off the rack but good names like Burberry, Hickey Freeman and Boss. Had them tailored as well...
I love suits! Most of my jobs i've had through the years requires me to wear a suit, so i don't really have a choice. But i love them so it's not a problem.
I wear them for work.

So i'll give you the background information before you watch the vid. Recently we ordered a few pizzas and wings from a ny pizzeria. They showed up literally 2 hours late (delivered), and when he got there we still tipped him and soon realize after he left that we only got 20 out of our 50 wings. We called and the kids at the pizza shop pass the phone around laughing like its a joke. We complained about the wait and the missing wings but they really didn't care. We were all pretty blown away since we had the guys on speaker phone.
Anyways, a few minutes later my friend found a peace of hair in his pizza. It was cooked right into the cheese so gross. My other friend than called and told him he wants to speak to the manager and what had happened. Again the pizza guys played games not believing us and so on. The "manager" than says f it bring the pizza in we'll give you money for THAT pizza alone. We hung up and drove over. This is what happened, wait for the end haha. . .
Mod edit: Inappropriate.
BTW since my idiot friend didn't realize the window was going to break while he was bare ass, first instinct was to book it. Until we realized we got it delivered to my friends house :whyme: . The home owner went back to the store to pay for the window, while the cops showed up and so on. In total it was like a $400 window.
The worst part is, that pizza place DEF wouldn't of filed a police report because it would of been very bad publicity on the pizzeria.
Okkk........ummm......can you cum over again.....
You guys are assholes. Also immature. Also, order pizza from a pizzeria you know/like.
And from my days as a window installer, your buddy overpaid by about $320. Mazel Tov.

I hate planes. Being 6'2" might be the reason.
I took a 9 hour trip by train to Niagara Falls, and I enjoyed it. I had internet on it, though very slow, and had A LOT of leg room. ANd it was cheaper than a plane.
Longest trip about 18 hrs, ~7,500 miles. 1 stop and wasn't able to get off plane for that stop. Long day!
I was traveling last week. I was flying home from Malta, so i "had to" fly to Rome, missed my next flight to Oslo, so i had to buy a new ticket, almost lost that flight too. Got to Oslo, had to wait for two hours there and then it was off to Bergen.
Total time = Around 12 hours (it could have taken 4 )
I love flying, and it's fun with free wifi 10000 feet up in the air, but i hate Airports. After this trip, i've added Rome's airport on my blacklist of airports to avoid in the future. It was the worst thing i've ever experienced. Stay away.
Speaking of Airports, the Dublin airport is awesome. It's like a Guinness Wonderland, with bartenders wondering why you are drinking a few pints of guinness at 5 in the morning.

Many a time I've been sat at the bar in an airport at 6am, waiting for it to open so I can start my week-long drink binge that involves a flight, a week somewhere hot and nasty, and then a return flight. It's pretty much drinks ahoy the whole time! I might add that last time I did that we were at the bar till 6:30 when our plane left at about 6:45. How dare the captain interrupt our pints!
I do love flying, but I agree with LM. Airports are a pain. Anyone been to the airport in Bodrum, Turkey? It was nice enough when we landed but it was like the most packed out oven in the world when we had a 3 hour wait for our plane on the way back. I was out of cash too so couldn't simply drink my way through it!
I actually like airports. I like how everything works there. They did loose my baggage at Heathrow though, which ended up going to France and getting to me 1.5 months later, and I was leaving Poland in 2 more weeks.
Also the Dusseldorf airport is nice and clean, a lot of walking though.
And I wanted to drink on the plane, but they had those tiny cans of heineken for $10, of which I only bought two, and on the airport I still don't know how much I paid but I gave the guy $10, and he gave me back €1 lol. On my way back, I somehow paid with USD that I was left with €15 which was enough for some awesome toast and 2 more pints of Guinness. the last pint I just took the glass, and went to chill at my gate waiting for the plane, and everyone was looking weird at me. I think it was 7 in the morning.

lol yeah, you do get some funny looks knocking a few back when it's not even double figures o'clock.
I like airports when they're fully open, and especially if they're air conditioned when in a hot country. My problem is we always go for cheap "lads" holidays and the flights before about 7pm are always the cheapest. We get to the airport typically about 3am and there's nothing open except a coffee shop that doesn't sell anything other than coffee, tea and yesterday's leftovers. Now that I don't like.
Bummer about your luggage at Heathrow. I've thankfully never had that happen yet. Hope it never does!

I like airports when they're fully open, and especially if they're air conditioned when in a hot country. My problem is we always go for cheap "lads" holidays and the flights before about 7pm are always the cheapest. We get to the airport typically about 3am and there's nothing open except a coffee shop that doesn't sell anything other than coffee, tea and yesterday's leftovers. Now that I don't like.
Bummer about your luggage at Heathrow. I've thankfully never had that happen yet. Hope it never does!

Well my stuff was lost because my flight from JFK was late 3 hours because of heavy rain and a fuel spill. lol. I had to wait in a line for 2 hours to book a room in a hotel. They put me in Renaissance, with free food vouchers, so I could eat as much as I want, but stupid me didn't know that the airline would pay for the minibar as well. lol.

Lol, well I did get to the hotel at 21:00 and my flight to Warsaw was at 7:30...and I went to sleep at 1 without drinking. They had some really comfortable beds though. I think it's like a 3 or 4 star hotel. lol

I was a little drunk already, and blasting music through my headphones which I'm sure everyone heard.
My longest trip: 22 hrs. Minneapolis, USA to New Delhi, IND
Trip was soooo long but the Abu Dhabi airport was really cool!

I was traveling last week. I was flying home from Malta, so i "had to" fly to Rome, missed my next flight to Oslo, so i had to buy a new ticket, almost lost that flight too. Got to Oslo, had to wait for two hours there and then it was off to Bergen.
Total time = Around 12 hours (it could have taken 4 )
I love flying, and it's fun with free wifi 10000 feet up in the air, but i hate Airports. After this trip, i've added Rome's airport on my blacklist of airports to avoid in the future. It was the worst thing i've ever experienced. Stay away.
