Yeah the truth is Steve you made how many bloody payments before coming to realize that you and the lass didn't like the vehicle contract you two had agreed to? You obviously wanted the car when the terms were presented, hence why you took it. Don't expect any sympathy now from the crowd for your mistake.

If anyone shows up for the show and brings popcorn you'd be bloody lucky. My guess is anyone willing to show up for this event will most likely be armed with a nice bag of rotten tomatoes for those mouthy Hoddinott moments.

T.J., just wait until CMA's Exterminator launches his attack on everyone involved with the VFC financing scandal - $18.4mil is peanuts compared to the punitive damages he and the wife will be planning out how to obtain (from the comfort of their teardrop of course). TD bank and their shareholders are going to be crying something fierce when their 'prime-time' litigation is complete.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- A federal jury in Oregon awarded $18.6 million to a woman who spent two years unsuccessfully trying to get Equifax Information Services to fix major mistakes on her credit report.

Julie Miller of Marion County was awarded $18.4 million in punitive damages and $180,000 in compensatory damages, though Friday's award against one of the nation's major credit bureaus is likely to be appealed, The Oregonian reported http://is.gd/VYkiIs ).

The jury was told she contacted Equifax eight times between 2009 and 2011 in an effort to correct inaccuracies, including erroneous accounts and collection attempts, as well as a wrong Social Security number and birthday. Her lawsuit alleged the Atlanta-based company failed to correct the mistakes.

"There was damage to her reputation, a breach of her privacy and the lost opportunity to seek credit," said Justin Baxter, a Portland attorney who worked on the case with his father and law partner, Michael Baxter. "She has a brother who is disabled and who can't get credit on his own, and she wasn't able to help him."

Tim Klein, an Equifax spokesman, declined to comment on specifics of the case, saying he didn't have any details about the decision from the Oregon Federal District Court.
