Random Musings - Day #203

The art of complaining was taken to a new level by Canadian country singer/songwriter, Dave Carroll. Whilst on a flight, he saw baggage handlers manhandling his guitar and that broke. He complained to stewards and the operator and got nothing. So what did he do? He penned a song and as part of duo Sons of Maxwell, "United break guitars" was released and the video became a big youtube hit. As a consequence, the share price of United airlines took a nosedive. Dave got his compensation!

I think London is made up of a bunch of part-timers. When I got on the tube to get back home from work, it wasn't even 4:30 and the tube was packed. A lot of people got on from Old Street.

"The Lord giveth, the lord taketh" is a slight misinterpretation. It is in fact supposed to be "the Lord gave and the Lord take hath taken away" (Job)
