Nextel.. the hell continues..

Filed under Bad CS

re account.  I had them cancel the two lines after much pain. I was to return a phone to them in a dhl envelope which they would provide, non arrived. I’ve tried since last Friday night to have them send me a label.  Here’s the resultant mail.

Please check the notes on the account to see that the service was closed out on two lines and that there was a label supposed to be sent for the phone I was trying out. I’ve called in 5 times this last week to get a label sent, you’re system was updating on one occasion , the dept that was handling it was closed on two occasions I was dumped during transfer x2 and a nextel rep I called that was dealing with it transfed me to another party to deal with it who promptly said they can’t hear my call and dumped me.

What I would like is the label to return the nextel phone prior to you attempting to charge me for it. failing that please get the manager that called me prior to sort this whole mess out. Since it’s happening all over again I shouldn’t need to call this many times to have one simple request handled.

Regards

Digital TV and the Feds: Largesse with your loot. $40 and a fattened (nation of) calves to keep you a goggle eye

Feds unveil digital-TV subsidy details | CNET News.com

If that initial $890 million worth of coupons run out, NTIA has the power to ask Congress to hand over an additional $450 million, creating up to 11,250,000 more vouchers. Those coupons would be reserved, however, for households that self-certify that they rely solely on over-the-air broadcasts, as opposed to cable or satellite.

In short $40 to each family that wants to put money towards a set top converter which could so easily have been done by just giving a $40 off the taxes, you know for the people that fucking pay them! I’m surprised it’s not 100% rebate given the need by the state, the absolute need, for these crt cabbages that buy their low cal phosphorescent diet which are required to keep the illusion going. I think I’m bitter since I just had about 50% of the money I received in a bonus to pay off this kind of innovative theft :(

You must all really really want this?

Rep Tom Cole is a whore. Part 2 SCAM national leadership awards SCAM

Link to The return on my life investment » Blog Archive » Rep Cole is a whore. :)

Erin posted some rather disparaging comments re this phony solicitation to accept an award , i.e disguised fundraiser, for her part in community leadership. ( That’s funny, we’re the kind of people that want to be left alone) and she posted something exactly like this

 

Creddy  How a registered libertarian ended up on a republican community leader list to have dinner with the president. Personally I’d rather have dinner with satan if he existed, than to willfully spend anytime in the same room with Bush.
Her: Oh I’m so sorry to have bothered you.
Creddy: Oh no bother. One question though. Is this a privately funded group?
Her: No
Creddy: So your agency is using the same money to call and bother me that was forcefully and illegally taken from me in the first place.
Her: What?

I just received  a call from Jeanette Crotty on behalf of the mendacious congresscritter  tom cole. Not only are these people retarded , ignoring the annoyance of calling us in the first place , they know I that we hate statists and despise frauds , oh wait redundancy and there’s no way we’d support this regime unless they held a more obvious gun to our head.

More  from Flyteblog.com  re this scam.   I never thought anyone would best the FOP for annoying calls ..Congrats Cole  you truly are a leader to watch out for, and NOT in a goody way.   Since this man thinks it’s ok to tie up our resources  I’m wondering if we shouldn’t all be good citizens and return the favour:)

Sunday, er Monday weekend roundup..

Friday..   Weird day in general.   Toddler’s in many locations   some just have driving licences and  vote..:) 

Satday.. Home with the little one. Took him out to buy brakes and parts for the F(uck) ( Ford Truck) and  on the whole had a pleasant Dobh day. in the evening  take and bake pizza with 

Sunday. Erin had to go interview( practical test) at work which took out our only day together.  Placed Dobh with the grandparents and took off for the range. OMFG I can’t shoot anymore.. not one gun  I used to go weekly, sometimes more, and worked my way up to pretty tight groups with everything I owned.. now.  well they would ruin a person’s day  but  … I wonder if I need to look more closely at the old adage  “beware the man with only one gun , he probably knows how to use it:)   In the meantime I need practice.

Then we had lunch at the Skeptical Chymist in Scottsdale ( yep part of the Scottsdale Triangle  which Erin  ,  an Irish name meaning peace ( very funny joke ha ha)  wished to go along. They are seemingly THE place to celebrate the upcoming St Patricks’s  day ( I shit you not that’s on their flyer)    Ok  I wanted to try out the Irish Breakfast which claims to  have black pudding and whitepudding.  How did I find them?   well they were under the bacon THE SINGLE SLICE of bacon  which  surprised me   

All day Irish Breakfast…

Bacon rasher, sausage, black and white pudding, baked beans, two eggs, grilled tomato and toasted wheaten bread. Not a meal for light eaters.

I should have read it more carefully it really is in the singular.   ( they missed out the beans too:( )  This was not a lot of food by US or Irish standards and maybe my hopes were raised but the white pudding had  one bites worth and the black pudding two.  Lesson learned  Menu = blarney.   I was so fecked off I wanted to give out to them   but, they have draught cider and I had a couple and that was nice enough to make me forget about it.  In the past the foods been ok ( Like you can get great food in Ireland, ok  I seemingly can’t ;) )  but this was one a mighty letdown..   

Saw. “This movie is not yet rated”  which  has suspected shows up the MPAA to be a bunch of jerks, lying jerks and  well you get the picture. It’s a little too heavy on the casual link between  violence on screen and reality which  is a large failing of anyone arguing against censorship  when advocating that maybe they should restrict other people and we can all be equally repressed:)  On the whole though good work  and a very interesting, often hilarious documentary.

Lastly bargain AC DC  all the videos  under nine bucks  at Sam’s club..  Who says that Rock and roll ain’t noise polution :)

Greasy bastards from the Illinois Dept of Revenue – forget the planet, save yourself from them first.

Biofuel and the Taxman

The agents informed the Wetzels that they were interested in their car, a 1986 Volkswagen Golf, that David Wetzel converted to run primarily from vegetable oil but also partly on diesel.

Wetzel uses recycled vegetable oil, which he picks up weekly from an organization that uses it for frying food at its dining facility.

“They told me I am required to have a license and am obligated to pay a motor fuel tax,” David Wetzel recalled. “Mr. May also told me the tax would be retroactive.”

Further on within the story you find that there’s mechanism in force for him to pay this tax but thats no reason to not send armed goons and the threat of felony charges for a man exhibiting the kind of ingenuity that used to be a hallmark of the American experience which now seems more mythical than reality. I bet the Wrights today would have closed down for breach of the peace, hell in Boston they’d be charged with possessing an infernal machine but these are more enlightened… oh sorry I drifted off there.

Classically Liberal: Vagina gets girls suspended from school.

Another look at why public school is an education in itself:)

Now of you want an indication of exactly how moronic this alleged
educator is consider this. Principal Moron says the girls were not
suspended for saying the word “vagina”. Oh, no, not at all. They were
suspended for not obeying his order to not say the word vagina. To
quote the head moron himself: “the girls were punished not because of
what they said but because they disobeyed orders not to say it.” That
is not censorship, he says, but insubordination. And this man is in
charge of people teaching children! This man shouldn’t even be a
janitor at a school.

Note I didn’t call him names  I am merely quoting an article  about a pompous asshole:)

Enabling the crazy with fairy tales that they will get a second chance.

Detective: Sex offender said he’d apologize in heaven – CNN.com

A convicted sex offender on trial in the abduction and slaying of 9-year-old Jessica Lunsford told authorities that he hoped to meet her in heaven and apologize, a detective testified Tuesday.

Sickening, nauseating and on the whole par for the course when invisible friends are encouraged for those that can’t even grasp consensual reality. That’s why most politics here frustrates me,  we’re all up in “saving the children  yet devote millions of man hours a year to enforcing the slightest little bullshit rules and infractions re public mores  that over time change. 

This is your choice. Take out these evil fucks now or spend your time paying  black and whites to chase down those only harming themselves,  their fuel economy , the and lay off the people that squeal their tires by accident ( illegal in mesa, those that come to the door to answer the cops  and have a dog run out by accident getting a “dog at large” citation  etc etc…  

This is seriously the choice you have made?

Reckless Loop 101 drivers put people’s lives at risk

Passenger cars aren’t made for driving that fast.

Then they couldn’t be clocked at that speed:) What’s up with the newspaper eating police cock, ( going to call it copoganda*) rather than taking a real story , say look at the evidence re the “danger” re speed on the accidents they have. How come the German’s have a lower death rate per passenger mile with many roads having no speed limit? Maybe look at the revenue generation, the dubious legality of the tickets being issued to people of the wrong gender, race and even those on board planes 2000 miles away all sworn by a law enforcer to be that person. Same old story the comments are good though most of the slaves are happy with their chains, in fact they like the shine from the AZ dawns..

 After a light savaging by conservative hair band Ann Coulter that questioned  his, well something that I am not sure about.  If someone were to call me a faggot than I won’t take offense. Why?  Well you can’t argue on one hand that  this is an offensive word while claiming to be equal  with the subject.   In other words why would someone into equality give a rats arse about being labeled, even incorrectly as such.  Here’s  Mr  America …

“In America, we strive for equality and embrace diversity. The kind of hateful language she used has no place in political debate or our society at large. I believe it is our moral responsibility to speak out against that kind of bigotry and prejudice every time we encounter it.”

Mr Edwards,  striving for equal opportunity is one thing, one I agree with, actual equality though is something far scarier and needs to be countered as a  kind of bigotry and prejudice every time :)     Edwards,  First fucking amendment.. you don’t get it do you ? 

Ah no,  he doesn’t  here’s some more from him

Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards says Jesus would be appalled at how the United States has ignored the plight of the suffering, and that he believes children should have private time to pray at school.

Oh  crap

“I think that Jesus would be disappointed in our ignoring the plight of those around us who are suffering and our focus on our own selfish short-term needs,” Edwards

Joy to the world.. another person taking on the mantle of forced equality. 

And when I’m faced with difficult decisions, which I regularly am, I very often go to him in prayer.

Get this -YET-  another person that hears voices in his heads thinks he’s the best steward for the world’s largest war machine

Because I am a sinner and selfish, like every human being on the planet.

Ok  now I take offense,   Hey fuck knuckles I was being civil ( ish)  and here you go calling my family names. So telling my 18 month old child that he’s a fucking sinner has you so far in the hypocritical zone that I really don’t think you are making a case for morality coming from Jesus  your homeboy. 

 Are you not the same man that was just explaining how tolerance is a goal, equality is a goal yet  your world view is that we’re all EQUALLY bad,  gee thanks.

Best Buy: Yet another reason I don’t shop with these people. Alternate prices lists in store

Connecticut News from The Hartford Courant ::: State, Regions, & Towns On courant.com

State Attorney General Richard Blumenthal ordered the investigation into Best Buy’s practices on Feb. 9 after my column disclosed the website and showed how employees at two Connecticut stores used it to deny customers a $150 discount on a computer advertised on BestBuy.com.

Interesting, totally believable , and I’m sure that nothing will come of it.    Even if it it did the chances of those affected benefiting seems slim  to Karen Carpenter( I really need to update that line it’s dating me horribly)   When the state sues ,on your behalf , the last few settlements have been hideously biased in favor of the attorneys on the state side and, ironically, in favour of the defendant.  

MS:  You get a discount on buying new software…oh way to punish
Netflix:  You get to upgrade for a month. ( punishment?  you get advertise to those harmed?  bs)
Carfax:   Free car report or discount on their services.. WTF  there’s a pattern here.

This is why most class actions that I could have been a party to have been  refused. In the case of the MS one I didn’t believe in it,  Netflix was needlessly optimistic marketing  and had they the brains, ok I know I mentioned marketing , to just tell the truth and make an offer  for  up to x DVD  but seemingly honesty versus coercion is not en vogue. What is though   is state AG’s  raking in the cash for the damaged party for  the community while those genuinely affected  get nothing. 

Wonder why it’s so hard to sue those that “own” the courts

Today I had a Sunday go to meeting bun.. ( First non theist "church"

Holy shit,  has hell frozen over?  Er no it doesn’t exist and besides it would need to exist first.  Anyway it was the inaugaral  meeting of the first non theist “church” , there’s still debate over using that part as a word, I mean  from the Greek,”house of the lord” it seems to have an insurmountable issues.  That being said I totally arsed up the recording  due to unfamiliarity with the recorder (which I own so I am in the dumbass club tonight)   It’s very early days yet I probably am going to assist with the web community and recording / podcasting the  sermons and trying to get more people involved that way.

Come on in , we have no sin:)  More on this soon but I don’t have the time tonight.

Again , why do I carry a gun?

 It’s amusing the kind of conversation I can have in my car re guns. Ie. that thing safe,  it’s not going to go off and…

…. while this chat is taking place while 4 controlled explosions are occurring in my metal shopping cart at 40mph  a mere 3.5 feet from his head.  It’s amazing how people treat machines that they are familiar within in relation to those that they are not.

Australian state bans YouTube from schools to curb bullying – Breaking – Technology – theage.com.au

Obviously I was never bullied due to a lack of the internet connection in the mid 80′s. This reaction from the state sucks because I like people posting their crimes online, I fucking love it and whole heartedly endorse people providing their own petard :) DV or otherwise. Usual bullshit, Oh my prisoner abuse, ban digital cameras.. have a war on, don’t let people take pictures of the aftermath etc.

Then even more annoyingly

Girls were 2 1/2 times more likely than boys to be victims, the newspaper said.

A copy of the study was not immediately available.
