    Only people in SoFla would consider a $1 off coupon for a gun show to be worth buying a newspaper for!

    Good call. And the worthless HR people who do nothing but fire people.

    One of the funnier things in that oral history of Karate Kid was this from when they were shooting the Halloween dance fight scene and the Kobra Kai kids were dressed in skeleton outfits:

    Considering a rack copy is likely a buck ...

    Look at the top right corner, and it says the single rack copy is $1.88 ???

    Just a guess, but with sales tax, it's $2 when you pay for it at the counter.

    They probably don't use boxes anymore.

    Know who’s super-happy about this gaffe? Whoever signed off on that Lifestyle front in Denver a couple weeks ago.

    Why do you all disagree with Fredrick's stance on the suits. They are despicable in how they never complain about the moronic corporate edicts/layoffs. They are ruthless when they go through with the layoffs being smug with the folks who kept their jobs (of course with no raises EVER and the demand to work 60-80 and get paid for 40. That's why I praise the Colorado folks who stood up against the evil suits. F--k the suits. Sorry it's how I feel. Show some gumption. Stand up for the little guy.

    Because Fredrick looks at these issues with the nuance of a 10 year old. Fredrick doesn't understand that railing against evil "suits" makes Fredrick sound silly. Fredrick describes Fredrick's job as if Fredrick is trapped in some kind of gulag. Fredrick describes working conditions that anyone with even a small amount of talent or self-respect would have walked out on long ago. Fredrick pretends everyone around Fredrick is an idiot because that makes it easier for Fredrick to pretend the industry isn't drowning.

    If I may add to that fine screed, PC ... Fredrick has not yet put Fredrick's money where Fredrick's mouth is.
