Four Star Body Shop

April 19, 2011 By Mark Draughn Leave a Comment

By the way, the body shop that repaired my Toyota RAV4 after the goose strike incident is the Four Star Body Shop run by Loukas Pergantas. They've been repairing bits and pieces of my cars for about five years now, and they've always done a great job. And when it's something that I'm paying for out-of-pocket, they've been good about controlling the cost. Four Star Body Shop5424 … [Read more...] about Four Star Body Shop

Sprint. Still Fuckers After All Of These Years.

April 10, 2011 By Mark Draughn 3 Comments

One of the most productive posts on my blog has been this Sprint-bashing post from 2005. It's still the top Google result for "sprint fuckers" and the #2 result for "fucking sprint" and "fuck sprint". (I should probably be using this to establish my social media SEO cred.)

December 24, 2008 By Mark Draughn Leave a Comment

Well, not quite, but this isn't good. After last year's problems with lead paint in children's toys, Congress passed new laws to regulate the industry. Without changes to strict new safety rules...mom-and-pop toy makers and retailers could be forced to conduct testing and labeling they can't afford, even if they use materials as benign as unfinished wood, organic cotton and … [Read more...] about The Congress That Stole Christmas

Sallie Mae is a Nightmare

August 8, 2007 By Mark Draughn 36 Comments

Woman of the Law has a really good rant about a customer service nightmare with Sallie Mae, her student load provider. I'm hoping the links in this post will improve her search engine score for the phrase "nightmare with Sallie Mae". Or maybe I should link to it with the more traditional "Sallie Mae sucks," or my personal favorite, "Fucking Sallie Mae!" In any case, I wish … [Read more...] about Sallie Mae is a Nightmare
