Author Topic: Central Services At Your Service! Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA. USA (1774.21 miles northeast of Dallas) Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-23-2001 08:26 PM                        Yes, there apparently is a real air conditioning company in Fairfax, VA. called "Central Services." When I first saw these trucks about a month ago, it took me a few minutes to stop laughing and take this picture. I wonder how good they are at installing ductwork... I wouldn't normally post this, but it's just too funny not to share. (For those who don't get this, I recommend watching the film "Brazil." You'll understand soon enough.)  |  IP: Logged Jerry Chase Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1068 From: Margate, FL, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 05-23-2001 09:54 PM                       *Snort* <kafka, kafka>  |  IP: Logged Paul Turner Expert Film Handler Posts: 115 From: Corvallis, OR, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 05-24-2001 12:13 AM                     Very Funny. I wonder if DiNero is a silent partner . . . .  |  IP: Logged William Hooper Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1879 From: Mobile, AL USA Registered: Jun 99 posted 05-24-2001 01:07 AM                        Hmm...I think the dragon is sleeping, Scott.  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.

If anyone is asleep, it is our "friends" at Network Solutions (aka "the InterNIC"), who, as it happens, bear a surprising resemblance to the Central Services employees with respect to the "quality" of their service.  |  IP: Logged Jesse Skeen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1517 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Aug 2000 posted 05-24-2001 02:01 PM                     "We do the work, you do the pleasure!" In Stockton, CA, where I sometimes make trips to for thrift-store pillaging, there is a supermarket called S-Mart, the same name as the store "Ash" worked at in "Army of Darkness".

But I'll dig out Brazil and that'll be my movie for tonite.  |  IP: Logged
