    Don't you live in Buffalo now?

    You really want to throw stones from your McMansion up there?

    Me and the Amish? We'll bring hell and purgatory and disownment with us!



    Also, my only distaste for Berks is that I drive through it to get to work. Radnor Township, where ALL the rich folk live.

    Yeah, but I grew up in Berks and my parents are there so I have to stand up for them.

    Lancaster is actually a pretty cool place. I miss the easy access to awesome baked goods especially the lack of shoofly pie up here. Also you guys have better sushi and Indian food than Buffalo which is strange.

    I told you that sushi place rocked! A new one opened up across the street from me, which was really nice of it. It's also awesome.

    Where would you recommend for Indian? Spyro Gyro?

    And dude, I can mail you some shoofly if you've got a craving. Or at least the mix to make it.


    My lancaster pride is adoptive. Never grew up here, nor had I ever been here until I moved here.

    That place really did rock.

    My wife and I liked Taj Mahal on 741 just south of 30.

    A couple of my friends highly recommended Tulsi just off 741 on Columbia heading into Lancaster, but I left before I got the chance to try it.

    Thanks for the shoofly pie offer, but I found out Bird-in-Hand Bakeshop will mail me a pie so I should be able to survive if the hankering gets to strong.

    who would you sue if you got hurt not wearing your seat belt?

    that's like suing if you got hurt not wearing your bicycle helmet

    Remember the lady who sued because her coffee was too hot?

    The burgler that hurt himself and sued the home owners of the house he broke into?

    This is America son.

    Man people keep making fun of her for this. But a lot of people don't actully know anything about it.

    So yeah, maybe you think it is hot like "ohh noo it hurrts :(" And you just expect she got singed for something.

    Apparently she had second or third degree burns over most of her legs and a bunch of the skin just kind of fell off. Maybe they also put the cap on wrong or something I don't know. I'd want my medical bills payed for too.

    But really, America did go through an overly litigious period for a while there and I kind of hope it is over.

    Yeah, I think the prosecution even proved that the coffee had been heated past company standards.

    I think there was a guy who wanted to sue the owner of a house he was robbing because he got shot by him but it was thrown out.

    Couldn't you actually get away with that kind of thing in England these days because of their ridiculous self-defense laws or am I way off base.

    No idea. I know that defense of life and property will get you off pretty much every time in the US though you can still get charged with smaller crimes like illegal discharge of a weapon if it's not registered or something.

    A year or two back, a guy in New York shot a burglar in his home with an unregistered handgun, or rather, a handgun he was officially in the process of getting documentation for. There was a big hubbub about it. I don't remember how it turned out, though.

    Anyone remember the guy's name?

    Shit, Castle Doctrine will let you shoot at people on your neighbor's property in Texas, and walk free.

    It was a bit line from "Liar Liar."

    There is one way a burglar could sue (but he'd be in prison because he'd be admitting to burglary) and that's if you set up booby traps.
