Wow! I can't top that. Good for him. His deeds made me feel good and that's worth something.

I would pay off my mortgage and buy a couple houses in nice places all over the country.

My boss is a PITA however I can't see wasting time and money being vindictive, but whatever floats your boat

Personally, I'd turn into vapor with that sort of cash.. but I also really hope that he frames this:

Makes for a funny news story, but not my cup-a-joe. Depending on the sum, I'd figure out a way for me and my loved ones to disappear ("vapor" as Chris put it). BUH-BYE!

I'd start a spoof website that employed top writers, who'd pump out cool fake news stories.

Since Cindy & I have a trust set up, I'd try to see if we could collect anonymously. If not, a name change and a move would be in order after helping less fortunate friends and the local no kill animal shelter. What else? Not much....we're both in our 70's now. Pretty set in our routines, not interested in the things younger people do.

Still. I find that article funny as hell. Reminds me of an event over 1/2 century ago when somebody had a load of gravel delivered to the local High School principal, blocking his garage door. (Good points by both Tabs and Vash.)

The engineering side of my brain has an issue with the claim that 10,000 tons of manure got dumped in 15 minutes. Reporters aren't the brightest...

Not what I'd do, anyway. I wouldn't spend even a moment looking in the rearview mirror...

15 minutes plus whatever time it took him to wake up and make the call in the first place.

I won't win the lottery because i don't buy tickets.
but if I did win, I'd make darned sure that very few people ever knew.

Can you imagine the leeches and negative attention that guy is drawing to himself?
He's going to re-gert that.

Do the math. 10,000 tons would be about 3,000 loads from an average 10 axle truck. It would be around 30,000 cubic yards.

Capisce?
