Default OT-The Real Fast and the Furious?

Thought you'd enjoy this...i'll delete it in like a day...just wanted to know what you think of this. (besides a little thing about my car being there on this page). Rumor...remember i said rumor has it that this is the article where the story line originated. If its true...would be cool if he had some sort of retrobution for it.

Check out the vibe article

definately valid point - but when your a small business owner who didnt think ahead (sometimes b/c he is so nice, his naivete gets him taken advantage of) you get screwed and there isnt much you can do.... its sucks, but hopefully you learn from your mistakes.

cant have a valid case unless your image, identity or likeness are portrayed. (i think those are the 3.) they skirted around those issues pretty well.

i agree but having an article writen about you doesn't make one think a movie is coming. Most are happy with an article and not thinking i should reserve all rights. basically your taking on the whale and unless ya got a harpoon your pretty much gonna loose. Object is to either get that harpoon or plug the breather hole with a golf ball like George Kastanza
