Joe,

JM>  The cab company here filed suit against LYFT and UBER and lost.

  There was a lawsuit filed in the local court between a new cab company
and a long time one. Yet, I supported the new cab company, because of
the attitude, etc. of the long time cab companies (i.e. unsafe driving,
speeding, taking the longest way around, etc.).

JM>  Of course more people have cars now, the pop. has declined a lot, etc.

  If you combine Little Rock and North Little Rock (the Arkansas River
divides the two cities), you have well over 200,000...otherwise you
don't.

JM>  Like the old joke: Don't drink and drive.  You might hit a bump and spill
JM>your drink.  :)

  I don't drink and drive, but I swig at stoplights. <G>

JM>  I was going to visit an FOAF and slipping a cup of coffee when the lid
JM>came loose spilling coffee all over the front of my tee-shirt. :)
JM>  (And it was too late to change it).

  Never mind the lawsuit of the women who spilled hot coffee from
McDonald's into her groin. She sued in court, and won. I could care less
about coffee myself, but I know well enough that in most cases, it's
hot.

JM>  It's supposed to but who knows what the evil geniuses in WA state are up
JM>to?  :)

  That sounds like an oxymoron. :P

JM>  It was funny when I was telling about my (then) upcoming trip and meeting
JM>people I only know online.  They were aghast I would meet strangers, like
JM>you guys are axe murderers or something.  (Other than some deranged person,
JM>why would anyone want to murder a

  Sort of like the deal with the guy picked up a hitchhiker. After
awhile, the rider asked the driver if he was worried that he might have
picked up a serial killer. He was told "what are the odds that the one
who picked you up is also a serial killer??" <G>. It's like the scene
from "Silver Streak", where Richard Pryor asked Gene Wilder what the
cops wanted him for. When Wilder said "Murder", Pryor said "Drop me off
anywhere along here". <G>

JM>  I drove up in the cart and said "Hello little girl, would you like a
JM>ride?  I have candy?"  She quickly replied, "Show me the candy first".  I
JM>nearly fell out of the cart laughing.

  LOL.

JM>  And he had a somewhat thick French accent.

  Interesting.

JM>  He died several years ago.

  There'll never be another one like him.

JM>>   I know Borge and Liberace are dead now...and I think both Rowan and
JM>> Martin are gone as well.

JM>  Yep.

  Rowan And Martin's Laugh-In launched the careers of so many folks. You
bet your sweet bippy. <G>
