Moose.

Apparently moose can stop a car well enough to kill people and sometimes walk away from it relatively unscathed.

E: I mean, not very often. Usually the moose will also be hosed up.

Apparently, the problem with moose is that they have (relatively) little, spindly legs, but big, heavy bodies at about the same height as the average car windscreen. In other words, they're perfectly designed to skim along the bonnet and mulch anyone in the passenger compartment when they get hit.

He's all over the place because the UK media feels it isn't doing its job properly unless it shovels racist uninformed cunts down your throat at every opportunity.

It makes money so it's good. Nevermind that it does real harm to people. People like to watch "straight talking" people who "tell it like it is" and "aren't afraid to speak their minds". You will notice that all of those are synonyms for "racist".

What I like about that article is how the man who won the settlement said he couldn't disclose terms of the settlement including how much that the cheques were for.

And then the Bank people tell the media how much the cheques were for.

Also how much he had in his account at the time. I know American data protection laws are a bit weaker than ours but even so that still seems like yet another settlement he can pick up.
