#2 Man, it's not the cable it's the Devil's Tool Tivo that made me an addict. I used ta watch football and disasters... now I have 18 hours of the Wonder Years that I just can't delete and can't watch either.

#3 After all it's nobodies fault for anything they do to themselves anymore. I'm having anxiety attacks, lets sue the freaking lawyers. Works for me

#4 Tommorow, he will probably get the cable bill for service back charges to August 99, plus interest, penalty charges, and disconnect fees. Shark bites hurt!

#5 That's It!! I'm suing Fred Pruitt. I've repeatedly requested that this site stop being so damn entertaining and informative. The only reason i'm attracted to this site is because of the proximity of its server to my house. Fred, you're gonna pay my Federal Hill rent for the rest of my life...bwaaahaaahaaaaa.....

#6 Chris,
Rantburg is about the only thing that's kept me from completely going postal and start playing "Muslims and Cowboys" in my neck of the woods. If you sue Fred, and Rantburg closes down, then I may not be able to restrain myself. It would be all your fault. Lucky for you, I hate lawyers. On the other hand, the government itself taught me some really nasty ways to turn human beings into wallpaper paste....... 8^)

#7 Hey, I hate the cable company as much as the next guy, but I have to piss on the fire:

...after Dumouchel showed up with a small claims complaint

Anyone can file in small claims court (up to 5K limit here in MA), just ask my ex-girlfriend. For that reason I highly doubt a lawyer's involved. He's dumb as dirt for doing this after getting a free ride for almost 4 years, though.

#8 He ain't as dumb as a guy I know. He called the cable company to come out and fix his black box when it broke.
