manufacturer will bend over backwards to keep you happy.


Kind words from a narcissistic asshole who thinks he owns a "lobster boat".

Jeez, next thing you know it will be raining cats and dogs.


Did you know that that phrase is supposed to have originated in 17th
century England when heavy rain would occasionally carry along dead
animals like cats and dogs in the gutters?

Well, now you do.

It also comes from mythology. Witches, who often took the form of
their familiars - cats, are supposed to have ridden the wind. Dogs and
wolves were attendants to Odin, the god of storms and sailors
associated them with rain. Well, some evidence would be nice. There
doesn't appear to be any to support this notion.

Pretty cool huh?


Where does the expression about raining assholes come from?

Lead by example Wayne. You have turned into a Reggie wannabee.




Amazing, isn't it?
