    Maybe he should go ask someone from New York who was convicted for a DUI and had his car impounded and auctioned off and is now left with no vehicle and a $20,000 car loan /i

    This is not a solution. Don't get me wrong drunk driving is a serious problem, and as someone who got caught right on the legal limit once it's no frigging fun on the other side either.

    But seizing citizens possessions is not the solution to crime be it drunk driving, prostitution, or drug related, and goes against the original founders wanted.

    [I]n the Classifieds section, ... The latter ad points readers to a website where they can receive, without proof of age, access to "Adult Sex Ed" materials."

            When a retired law enforcement agent, now a consultant for MIM, went to this website and clicked the word "Cunnilingus," he observed. . . a photo that "depicted a naked female lying on her back with her right leg lifted near her right breast as a male engaged in oral/vaginal sex upon her genitals"... Some may call that "Adult Sex Ed," but we call it "pornography." That's pornography made available at the family supermarket.

  10. Re:HuH on 'Til Tech Do Us Part · · Score: 1

    kbielefe,

    Thanks for the comment. I may be exaggerating a bit about it being six months but it took some time. It's strange when another person moves in and it really was just figuring out why it was happening because it's not like she was doing it to be vindictive.

    1) She is anal retentive, hell so am I about some things probably why we tolerate each other so well. Anyway she would go through the DVR " cleaning up" which meant deleting stuff sitting around, not because we were out of room but just because her logic was if a show sits XX weeks you MUST have seen it right? by explaining 3/4 still was enough cause shows rotated out if need be we broke her incessant need to delete stuff to make more room on a 3/4 full 40hr HD.

    2) We established a you bump my show make sure to re-record it another time and vice versa. This was also partly my fault and we both had to just learn to accommodate the other.

    3) The hardest one was shows we both watch, if the DVR is on when it records it leaves a show at the end when you go back to watch it, which she would assume meant I had watched it and would delete it after she viewed the show. I wish these things had a system to let other users know if they had seen stuff.

    Anyway it just boiled down to talking more to each other and getting into the habit of asking before removing stuff off the box. I agree with you about having a dvr being able to just hit pause and pay attention to someone without interrupting is great.

    Do you find yourself reaching for the remote when your away from your DVR? I hate it cause you get so used to having rewind.. ;)

    Ahh the toilet seat issue..

    Actually interesting enough on that issue the two warring parties have met and decided on a mutual peace accord. Since both parties would not concede defeat, nor recognize the others principles as better or right to existence, it was issued that the only logical step was to cease warring on this matter, lay down arms & establish normal trade relations until broken by either party.

    Almost 5 years now and the peace accord has held.

    Trying calling the Corp Office and ask to speak to the CEO's Office. When you get the office ask to speak to the Executive (or public) Leason for the CEO.

    I have done this a few times for my previous boss once for Verizon the other Qwest, and have seen him do it as well and it works. These people have the ear of executive personnel & can get things done.

    1) Look up the CEO's name so you can ask for his office by name

    2) Be NICE!! Explain your frustration in as much factual detail as possible and let them know the base issue.

    3) Don't use this unless you have exhausted your other options (which it sounds like you have) as these people are busy, and you will need to provide dates and time of when you called who you spoke to etc..

    Good luck
