Probably because it (OR wifey) would have broke the camera if he tried.

Hilarious!

Reminds me of a story my friends dad told me. One of his friends was getting divorced and his wife cleaned him out good even though he made all the money and she never worked. Anyway the court gave her his Corvette which was supposedly stored at his shop over the winter. When the divorce was over in the spring the ex was like where is the car, he said he wasn't sure. What she didn't know is he had put it in the pool about 3-4 months ago, so when she opened up the pool she found her car.

Maybe a "Wet Vac" will help?

Not along the same line as getting back at an ex-wife, but -

Back when Freightliner did their massive layoff in '09 after opening a new plant in Mexico, I heard that a couple weeks later some of the last trucks built before the layoff developed a rather nasty "aroma" after sitting in the hot Carolina sun for a few days...

Rumor was that one or more individuals had went back into the sleeper compartments of the cabs, lifted up the lower bunk to expose the storage compartments underneath, and shall we say, deposited a fully digested version of the previous night's dinner.

That’s great. Thanks for posting it.

Two things came to mind while reading that (besides the humor).

I can’t help but wonder with the cars age and low miles, if his purchasing it might have been one of the "final straws" for her.

Also – If he had posted a picture of her, with that write up, her attorney would have a hay-day in court with a defamation/slander issue to help drive (no pun…) her case home.



Yo, Randy - Check that out !! Staw and Hay in the same post with nothing to do with livestock !!

did this guy have a lawyer? Amazing how many people don't get a lawyer and get spanked during the divorce proceeding.

Also know a guy like this, he and his wife divorced, both doctors in the same field, in their early 30s, no kids, make the same amount of money. She got the house, car, 90 percent of the assets, and he gets to pay alimony to her. Difference is that the idiot didn't get himself a lawyer, and she did.
