I have no huge problem with this. As an isolated incident, it's nice, but why don't they do it for everyone? I hate it when one thing changes and people act like all is right with the world.

Like, when one corrupt cop is exposed, everyone goes, "Thank gawd, the problem is solved, now we can put our heads back in the sand."

Or when one classified file is de-classified, people go, "Thank gawd, now the government has no more secrets."

:eatu

Yea, I guess whatever keeps the little freak happy.

"Jonathan, who has autism, meticulously collected more than 500 Hot Wheels."

I think it should read, ".....obsessively collected more than 500 Hot Wheels."

He started when he was 2? 2? Really.

Actually, it was moo and duh who collected the 500 cars, unless the tard has a job. How did Hot Wheels even find out about this unless the family contacted them to try to get a hand out? I'm sure if I lost something in a fire and contacted the company it wouldn't be replaced for me free of charge because I'm not a moooooooo!
