MontrealReporter Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Hi! I am a reporter working for a major French media station based in Montreal, Canada. I am looking for anyone who could provide me any kind of information regarding the one that you call “TheLemon”. As you probably know he is well known here in Montreal, Canada and we get from time to time gossip about his activities which are hurting the local dealerships badly. I spoke to one of our local Ford dealers who said that the FordLemon saga was the worst nightmare possible for a business. He said they had to hire extra staff just to take care of problems created by the FordLemon’s Crew. Last thing we heard is that Mr. Schreiber (The head of the FordLemon's crew) has serious health problems and that he was planning to sell his website and everything related to it. Since this would be unusual I feel like I have to cover the story and we have tried to get in touch with him but he refuses to divulge any information saying everything we had to know was already on his website. I know he is posting here and I don’t have enough time to read all his posts. Did he ever mention to anyone of you his final intention? I once came across a man who did work for him in the past and he was telling me that he put in his will that the website had to be maintained forever. Now recently I heard he wants to put it up for auction. I’m looking for him to reply to a few of my questions. I know he will probably read my post and hopefully he will clarify this himself, if not any info from you guys would be appreciated. I am sorry to have taken so much of your time. Regards, The reporter P.S. I have nothing against Ford as I own one and I am very satisfied with it. No problems to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) "What the hell did you say in french?" quote from Kyle "Your full of shit" en francais. Reporter: You with the Journal?

Roadrunner Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 (edited) This is strangely hilarious. Also, this is inaccurate: http://fordlemon.com/images/disclaimer/billford.jpg Edited January 10, 2007 by Roadrunner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevenJ Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Lemon, would you please just kick the bucket already? It would do all of us a favor. It isn't like you even had a real problem like a transmission grenading or cracked head gaskets. It was just stinking mildew in the air conditioning system. I am sure Satan is holding a special spot for you along with Otis. That's what you get for never replacing your cabin air filter.... dumbass!

Edstock Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 "I am a reporter working for a major French media station based in Montreal, Canada." Épatant. Now, who are you, and what is the media outlet? Professional journalists stand up and be counted. Like, dude, this isn't like reporting the Montreal crime scene back when the Rock Machine was kicking butt, when a colleague of yours got drilled 3 or 4 times. BTW, he survived. So, enough with the anonymity, already. Of course Fordlemon's a jerk, but, he's our jerk, see? He inspires wonderful prose from a good half-dozen people around here, who get stroked up over some inane piece of twaddle he's posted. It's a marvellous polemical exercize. I just wish his graphics weren't so bad and so large. Thanks for playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 In Quebecois it would be "T'es plein d'marde mon esti" There you go. I rest my case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLemon Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 There you go. I rest my case. I see you are from Quebec City.... What a nice place to be every year on June 24th for "La Saint-Jean Baptist"......Esti! There's people smoking and drinking everywhere dans les belles autobus de la ville de quebec! Quebec city is the only place in the world where you can see people smoking weed and drinking beer in front of the parlement (parlement = our local white house...hahaha) with the cops watching! Their job is only to make sure people won't go pee on the building..... They won't arrest you if you don't pee on the fuckin parlement! ha ha ha ha ha! Incroyable mais vrai! Around 5 am you can't see the streets anymore..... There's a shitload of empty bottles,beer cans and dead bodies etc..... It's cool! It's too bad that people from Quebec City still buy Ford products..... Maybe we should translate all our website in French....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it weren't for June 24th, I thought you were talking about Victoria BC. It may be a parliament in your mind, Our White House equivient is in Ottawa. You know Federal Government and all that. If you translate the site I still wouldn't go there, Je suis Anglais so sorry no dice. Good luck in your future endevours Monseiur Citron.
