  3. Personally, I always get good customer service, from various different companys. My method: (Rule 1) Don't call them up and say, "Heh, asshole, your goddamn gloves are a piece of shit. I've worn them twice and they're coming apart. Fix the fuckers or talk to my attorney." ...this is guaranteed to get you totally shithouse service and a nasty attitude from the customer service rep. (Rule 2) Be very nice and cooperative with the customer service rep. Tell them about all of their product you own, and how happy you are with it. Tell them the item in question is failing for some reason and would they please help you out. Basically kiss ass and pump em' up. They will literally bend over backwards for you at that point. ...works for me!

    TRUE COLORS

    Be careful what you wear (or don't wear), when working under your vehicle...especially in public. A couple drove their car to K-Mart, only to have their car break down in the parking lot. The man told his wife to carry on with her shopping, while he fixed the car there in the lot. The wife returned later to see a small group of people near the car. On closer inspection, she saw a pair of male legs protruding from under the chassis. Although the man was in shorts, his lack of underwear turned private parts into glaringly public ones. Unable to stand the embarrassment she dutifully stepped forward, quickly put her hand up his shorts, and tucked everything back into place. On regaining her feet, she looked across the hood and found her husband-who was standing idly by. The mechanic, however, had to have three stitches in his head...

The crusty old managing partner finally passed away, but his firm kept receiving calls asking to speak with him. "I'm sorry, he's dead," was the standard answer. Finally, the receptionist who fielded the calls began to realize it was always the same voice, so she asked who it was and why he kept calling. The reply: "I used to be one of his junior associates, and I just like to hear you say it." [ 03-23-2002: Message edited by: trask ]

    Joke 4

    An old couple was sitting on the porch in their rockers, when the wife took her cane and hit him on the head as hard as she could. After he got over the stun he asked,"What was that for?" "That's for all the bad sex you've been giving me over the years", she replied. After a while the husband took his cane and hit her so hard it knocked her completely out of the chair. As she got back in the chair and gathered herself she asked,"Now what was that for?" He replied, "For knowing the difference."
  21. I soloed Candy Burkhalter...a very climactic experience.
