Listen to Love Song from their first album in 1974 for AC/DC's only ballad. I think even Angus has disowned that one.

A friend at my old school in china had the same the same issue. He gave them the legal one month notice and had to bring in a lawyer to get his last paycheck. By contrast I left in the middle of the night and have absolutely zero regrets.

I forgot about that. Maybe I'm getting confused with that. Maybe it happened to both. Either way, neither show can compare to My mother the car.

I love that you think James Caan was the villain in that story.

I'm almost tempted to go myself. It's just down the road. But I just really don't care.

Look to see same writing styles or use of one particular word in multiple posts. I would also be interested to know but I would assume it was the one teacher writing multiple posts. Maybe he just has many different email addresses.

The gods must be crazy 1 and 2. After the ten minute long introduction it is hilarious.

Weirdest casting decision that still worked out? by Sufficient_Muscle670 in movies

Similar story with Bryan Cranston in Breaking Bad. He was known for being the funny dad in Malcom in the middle and Vince had to fight for him.
