Does anyone know if you can sue a power company for damages to electronics or loss of important files/data?

I'm sure they have loopholes and high powered attorneys to use them. Your only hope is to stir up a lynch mob, bring the tar and lots of feathers and run those bastards out of business. Then you can take over and everything will be MUUUUUUUCH better.

HAHA that would be great! I could use some extra cash at the moment! Too bad theres no video...lol

That would only DETRACT from the story at hand. We want sensationalism...uh, I mean THEY want sensationalism. Make it all up and sell it as "real". Works for everyone else.

I get no respect.

Sure you do. I respect your vastly superior knowledge of porn and associated web sites.

Actually, there's that whole professional respect thing I just keep to myself when it comes to other IT folks.

Yeah, but have they blocked all real-time stock and news tickers? Those bastards are what REALLY chew up the bandwidth. I worked at a law firm where every atty wanted to have those tickers loaded, but then would complain that they couldn't do their online research due to lack of bandwidth. Oh, I also busted a $350/hr atty browsing porn for 7 hours in an 8 hour day, and he was billing it to a client. I watched my Internet gateway and saw his IP address visiting some places even Ivan wouldn't venture (and I'm not talking about midget porn either). When they confronted him, he tried to deny it. Since he was a partner in the firm, he got a firm reprimand...meaning that he was asked to try not to do that anymore. The very next day, he was at it again. One of the techs working for me refused to work on his computer because she said she didn't want to find out what "new additions" he had on his keyboard.

thank you! for years i've been wanting to know how to type

bauw bauw chicka bauw BAUW

as it sounds

I actually typed it out several ways before I found one I liked best.

They way this is playing out, it honestly DOES sound like adult entertainment. Old man, college girl, locked in a room, campus cops called out to take their turn...uh, help out. You could see if you could sell the story rights for some extra cash. Nobody ever said that stuff had to be TRUE.

Less stress vs. gym benefits. Heck, you could save money on a gym and just jog and work out around your home. Sure, you'll be starting a new career before too long, but do you want to start it with thinning hair? It looks worse on women than on men.

I have received the Time Traveler's Help request, the Christian Lover one, and many many others that I consider just simply odd...

However, this is by far the worst I've gotten...

There really are times I wish I knew who to report stuff like this to...

Ciels-

Report it to your ISP (Internet Service provider. Send that email as an attachment to another one you send to your ISP and see if they can find out more. Perhaps they'll blacklist that address or domain.

Uh, I've noticed that the following phrase seems to work here. You could try it on this guy: "So, how YOU doin'?"

Might be your video card going south, or a power problem with your monitor. Do you know anyone who could lend you either to test them?

Happy homecomings Katie! Glad you're safe and sound and headed back this way.

34 days and one carton. I need to falsify some more information. Although, 34 days is a long time in prison terms.

Well lookie here .. theres a little blushing icon..

Yeah, I know. I was just caught up in the novelty of actually blushing and forgot to use it.

Quote

Not the best brand.. but alright!

I wasn't aware that I still blush!

Quote

Nawww.. not grumpy.. just realistic! Hello ducky.

According to the thread title rules, that would be "rubber ducky".

Yeah, what the mama said. Glad to see you're at least able to post. Are you okay, other than being shaken up?

That's sort of what I figured. It was sort of like the old Sesame Street game. You know, "Which one of these is not like the others?" Sing it with me!

Only two had that "yippy-skippy" look about them, and I just figured they were the whuffos.

Quote

To quote myself from A Relationship Thread..

"Dating is Horseshit!"

Someone's a grumpy-bear...hello kitty.

Uh, the two NOT giving the secret finger signal?

Listen, joke 'em if they can't take a f*ck.

Quote

Ok, so now you fixed it...fine, but I still think you are slacking...

Yeah, and I refuse to pay that repost fine. I'll take it to court and get it thrown out on the grounds that I'm stupid. That usually works in our justice system, right?

Quote

All I have to say is:

64. Air Head

not that I have given any or any thing...I will never tell...

How the...? Where do you...? And what about the...? Do you have some sort of "Predator" camouflage, or was it a voyeur flight?

So here's the deal: don't call in sick until the first day you are feeling better, then tell them it just got immeasurably worse. then slink away and do whatever your little heart desires. As for how to get better? I can never remember what I did that turned the tide when I'm sick. Hope that helps.

Wishing your mom the best and sending all the positive energy and vibes in the whole wide world. I think I can manage that.

AAAAANNNNND I'm blind. Thanks.
