It is God that multiplies our sorrows.... God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry | | The Following 2 Users Say Thank You to Joshua For This Useful Post: | |

Was that you (one of the movers) wearing the shades, double-strand pearl necklace, and the tan wife-beater undershirt?

Very funny. It was probably shot on a sound stage with actors somewhere in Los Angeles.

Two guys, Rhett and Link, are internet comedians who (among other things) make intentionally bad commercials for local businesses. You can watch some of there stuff here: Rhett&Link: Internetainment

I liked the part about the crescent wrench and the fence post. Nice touch.
