    Let me quailfy this.

    I had the flu. MCI called me 11 times in two hours.

    11 TIMES!

    I asked for a supervisor. She told me that, looking at their records, MCI had only called me once that day, and the Tennessee Don't Call list did not apply to them, since they were located out of state.

    With every other word a curse most foul, I asked here if, since I was on ANY don't call list, did it appear that I wanted their damn calls? And do business with a scummy company like MCI?

    Then I went into "Berserker Curse" mode and made her cry. Cold medicine leads REALLY creative word combinations.

    Yeah, I'm the vermin. Like hell.

    No fscking way! I am on every "Don't Call" list I can find. They have no right to bug me at home!

    They are the ones being dicks. The GD telemarketing industry says they don't want to call people who don't want to be called. That is bullshit. They work to get around any tech blocking method.

    I say let Bun-Bun have their asses!

    I simply do not understand people who duck telemarketers. They are the greatest free stress relievers in existance.

    Come home from work pissed (as in mad, not drunk), the phone rings, tear the jackass on the other end a new one. You don't know them, they are vermin, your karma is clean.

    I have made MCI telemarketers cry before.

    Hey, if they want respect they should pick up cans or work at MickeyD's...

    What planet are you from?

    Oh, yeah, nobody wants to hang out with the ugly rich guy. You know, the funny one with all the great stories about what he went through to get rich, and the cool house and lovely wife.

    After all, personality, drive and intelligence have *NOTHING* to do with becoming rich (it must all be about looks).

    Plus the fact that lots of money can't pay for plastic surgery.

    BTW, I am not really young and I don't know anybody who considers me stupid.

    Your statements on the other hand:

    Fuck all you ugly bastards, quit poluting the gene pool.

    seem to contradict themselves.

    The term is "fishing expedition". Say some cop or whatever has an ax to grind with you. They use a real or fake letterhead to get some dirt on you from ebay. They could turn it over to the press, blackmail you or use it to get a real warrant.

    Subject: GBA SP

    Hello,
    Is it true that you will not be releasing the black colored GBA SP in
    the US? I thought adults were your target market for the GBA SP.
    I am an adult and would prefer a black one. Please reconsider and sell
    the black model in the US.
    Thank you.

    I think there are basically three reasons France, Germany and Russia are against the U.S. on Iraq:

    - They have all sold Iraq materials that would rather not become public (nuclear/bio/chem production) including since 1991. (Yes the U.S. sold them some stuff too, and turned a blind eye pre-1991).

    - They are all owed money by Saddam for this material (and know they won't get shit after the U.S. destroys the Bath party).

    - They want to poke the U.S. in the eye.

    Let's be serious, these are the FRENCH we're talking about. Iraq had a big army in 1991 too.

    When was the last time they actually won a war? I'm not talking about riding our coat tails, I mean them doing the fighting. Crimea?

    The only part of the French military worth a damn is the Foreign Legion, which is made up primarily of NON-FRENCHMEN!

    As to being pissed on, I seem to recal they kind of like that sort of thing. It sure couldn't hurt their smell (yes, I have been to France, too many times).
