[Heel n Toe]

Woah, woah, woah, people. I just called the notary public that lives across the street and he said the woman is 100% responsible for what happened to her and that Chris is in no way culpable for having left the treadmill running for such a short time so his settings and stats would still be there when he got back.

The fact that he usually leaves his towel and earbuds on the machine is another thing in Chris' favor.

Another thing is when this woman said "it shouldn't be running... it's the only one with a working TV." Just proved she was all too anxious to snag it and was probably looking at the TV instead of using reasonable situational awareness.

I was just kidding... I didn't call anyone, but I was once a jury foreman on a very similar case in federal court, and the clueless woman who didn't look where she was going in a "going out of business" discount store and tripped over an end aisle display as she was holding up and waving an item trying to get a cashier's attention for a price check didn't get a dime.

But the main thing I came here to say is, you have to take anything Ziggypants says with a grain of salt.

He's clearly trolling as usual.

Plus he's bringing his lefty, liberal biases in here... thinly disguised, but they're in play regardless.

Since it's Chris, someone with whom he disagrees politically, that should tell you everything you need to know about why he's just being a mindless yappy dog about the whole thing.

I sincerely doubt he'd be pulling this crap if it was one of his "comrades" who left the treadmill running.
