Barbara Connors is suing the very city that worked to save her.

In 2005 while a passenger in her son-in-law’s SUV, she became an unfortunate victim in a auto accident when her son-in-law made a mistake and accelerated instead of braked.

The SUV went into the Conneticut river, and she remained submerged.

The towns brave rescuers went into actions getting equipment and divers into place, their heroism saved Barbara Connors.

She is not thankful.

No, instead of gratitude shes suing the city. Barbara Connors suffered brain damage from her 29 minutes underwater. Now shes maintaining that if the very small town had a specialized dive rescue team she would have been rescued sooner and not have brain damage now.

BE THANKFUL LADY! these divers took a risk to save you and life is a gift, not a right.

KinderStart.com

Kinderstart.com is claiming in the lawsuit that Google has them blacklisted. This theory seems to be incorrect because one would think that a blacklisted party wouldnt be found in google, and clearly kinderstart.com is listed in google.

In fact Kinderstart.com has more than 43000 listings indexed in google.

With regards to visibility in the google search engine, it really comes down googles “page rank”. page rank is how google determines the sites viability, and lists results in relation to their page rank. A page rank of zero would prevent kinderstart.com from apearing at the top of the list.

Kinderstart claims google is infringing on their right to free speech…

Of course I say that if google is forced to promote another search engine then someone is infringing on googles rights…

A lawsuit brought by a woman named Macie Meckler against the “old orchard mall” due to a excitable squirrel. This squirrel jumped upon the womans leg while she was visiting the outdoor mall.

Meckler had her confrontation with the squirell back in 2004. While she was running and  attempting to remove the squirel she fell and suffered severe injuries.

The suit says its the fault of the mall that the squirrel attacked her.

The suit claims that the squirrel was known and was allowed to remain on the property despite having harrassed customers before. And claims it was encouraged by employees who fed it.


Trees in “The Garden” heh, who woulda thought….

The plaintiff contends that the managment failed to warn her that squirrels live in trees.

Great way to net 50 grand hey?

Insurance Companies = Evil

Insurance companies are well hated for a reason. Sentry insurance is suing an 81 year old woman becuz the insurance company had to pay workers comp to a parcel delivery worker becuz that worker fall on some ice located on the the seniors property.

Insurance companies are largely frowned at because of some practices that, while legal, are considered immoral. Things like lying, or making people feel bullied, or denying katrina victims claims. theres been instances where the insurance company has compensated doctors to dispute claims as well.

Sentry Insurance profitted 245.5 million in the year 2005, and is now suing a senior citizen becuz it paid on one workers worker compensation.
Insurance companies want you to pay them, but they want to never process a claim. Oddly, they have lawyers, but they always advise you not to get one… Definately get one!
