    Walking around the neighbourhood this afternoon we saw the following:

    A Honda Odyssey was backed into a driveway with a slight slope down to the street (i.e., the van was facing "downhill"). The right rear tire & wheel were off; it looked like brake work was in progress. For safety, a wheel chock had been carefully placed BEHIND the right front wheel.

    We kept walking, maybe a little quicker.

    I am sure the chock manufacturer failed to be clear and therefore negligent.

    I am sure Honda, the brake, wheel, and tire manufacturer, and anything related to the name Odyssey are guilty as well.

    I would be watching out for that minivan for a while...

    If he does sue Homer maybe he will win this car.

    (yes I do know that is not the homer we were talking about)
