                My whole system had been infected, causing all sorts of damages to my web pages, and passing the virus on to my users. If you were here on Sunday 24th, you may want to seek out a virus scanner. While I have cleaned up the files on here, you may have it, and not even know it. All my computers here, that I used to access my websites with, had become infected. What a mess.

At the bottom of the first page, very easy to miss, it said &quot;Important Information located on the last page.&quot; So, I flip to the last page, and in fine print, I shit you not, it says &quot;Starting next month, your paper billing statement will incurr an addition $9.95 charge. To avoid this, go to blah blah blah... and sign up for electonic billing.&quot; WTF?!?</p><br />

<p>It is rare that a company makes their way onto this blog. Therefore, I would like to congradulate Partyka Chevrolet - Mazda - Isuzu - Truck on 200 Skiff Street in Hamden, CT 06517 for making it not once , but TWICE for their sleezy dealings. Congrats to Partyka!</p><p><i>I received a Post Card in the mail, that said the following:</i></p><p>URGENT RECALL NOTICE</p><p>We are sending this notice to inform you that your <i>'03 Mazda 6</i> is in need of an Important Safety Recall <i>SSP 71 Fan Control Module</i>. To ensure continued safe operation, schedule an appointment. Blah Blah Blah....</p><p><i>Why did this make the list?</i></p><p><i>#1. The Fan Control Module Recall was released <strong>3 YEARS</strong> ago</i></p><p><i>#2. All this recall did was shorten the length of time the fan would spin after the car was shut off, hardly a safety issue.</i></p><p><i>#3. If they did any research, they would know I already had this done.... 3 years ago.</i></p><p><i>#4. I never bought my car from them, so they should not care about me.</i></p><p><i>#5. The </i><i><b>ONLY</b> reason for this post card is to get me onto the car lot. Then, while I wait for this minor repair, they get a chance to low ball me on a trade in, and over charge me on a new model.</i></p><p>The other posting that involved this sleezy dealer can be found here: http://www.pebkac404.com/index.php?/archives/244-Stupid-Story-12-15-06.html</p><br />

<p><i>I have an IPod listed on ebay and I was sent this email:</i></p><p><font style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><b>Email: </b>Is it black or white?  Thank you, Karen</font></p><p><i>Of course, I had to reply in my usual tone:</i></p><p><b>My Reply: </b>The titles says white, the description says white, and the picture is white. When I ship it, I'll put in a black one.</p><p>People really are fucking idiots. As a side note, when I send out emails to people, I try to fit the entire thought into one sentence because I find that most people I deal with are incapable of reading more than one sentence in an email, therefore anything else I write after the period gets ignored, so I find that I use lots of comas and these elongated sentences that string together multiple thoughts without ever taking a breath for fear that whatever I have to say becomes ignored or forgotten anyways which is something that i simply can't for the life of me understand, oh by the way I never knew this before but it seems that my Dad actually reads this blog so I just wanted to give my Dad a shout out and wish him a Happy Birthday because I never had a chance to actually call him but it's not that I had forgotten I was just really busy that day being a Dad myself so i sure hope he can understand and thanks to everyone that actually reads this blog that I update every now and then, but never seems to be nearly as often as I come across these types of stupid people and situations. This sentence, however, no one will read.</p>

                I had a oil guy come out and do a yearly maintenance on my furnace. After he left, I noticed an oil leak, so I had them come back out. The tech guy comes out and says &quot;What the problem?&quot; I said &quot;I had yearly maintenance done on my furnace, and now it's leaking&quot;. He said &quot;You should have just left it the fuck alone.&quot; I wanted to ask if this was his professional opinion, but I had quickly descided he wasn't being very professional.

                <p>I have come to the realization that if I don't have money, I have problems. Alternativly, if I DO have money, I still have problems. WTF? </p><p>I opened up a savings account with FNBO Direct. It took me about a week of a grueling application designed to prove my identity. In the end, they pulled money from my normal checking account and all is good, right? I get an email asking for my check and license be faxed to them to prove my identity. Mind you, I've already gone through credit related questions and bank account numbers and what-not. It looks more like a fishing scam than anything else, so I call up the bank. </p><p>They honestly do want a voided check and my license, to protect my identity before I can pull the money OUT of the bank. Apparently my &quot;first born child&quot; was only to be allowed to put money in. OK, So before I send it to them, I will need to attach my account number to the fax, right? They may need to know who is randomly sending them blank checks via fax (which, by the way, does not sound very secure to me). </p><p>I look online, and all it shows is my last 4 numbers of the account. Alright, maybe they sent it via email when I signed up... nope. So I call back, and ask for my account number and they tell me I need to speak with a specialist. Hmm... how special do you have to be to give mean account number. But I wait again. When she comes on, she asks me for my &quot;second born child&quot; before discussing my account with me, again, to protect my identity. Fine. I'm me. We are square now, right? Nope. </p><p>Won't give out an account number over the phone. While I do understand that, why bother to give me the third degree before telling me that she won't help me? </p><p>The punchline; If you happen to be keeping track, they are still looking for a random check to be faxed to them without an account number attached. If I were to die, my wife won't know the account number either. OK, then, so just WHEN did they give me the account number? Back when I logged on the first time. If I didn't write it down, she can't help me. They don't give out numbers over the phone. She suggested I log in for the first time as the joint applicant, it would give me the account number then. So I logged in as the joint account holder, did it show me the account number? No, of course not. I guess will just have to drive to Omaha, Nebraska and speak with a teller.</p><br />
