This would be funny, if it wasn't real 

Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and
Hillary Clinton.

Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when
Bush's daddy made war on him; a good guy when Cheney did
business with him; and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't
find Bin Laden" diversion.

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is Communist, but
trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of
international harmony.

The United States should get out of the United Nations, and
our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions
against Iraq.

A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but
multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all
mankind without regulation.

The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops
in speeches, while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.

If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.

A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time
allies, then demand their cooperation and money.

Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy, but
providing health care to all Americans is socialism. HMOs and
insurance companies have the best interests of the public at
heart.

Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science,
but creationism should be taught in schools. A president lying
about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense, but a
president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands
die is solid defense policy.

Government should limit itself to the powers named in the
Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring
the Internet.

The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but
George Bush's driving record is none of our business.

Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're
a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness and you need our
prayers for your recovery.

You support states' rights, but the Attorney General can tell
states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt.

What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest,
but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

I think some of these points could be applied to me, especialy these 2:

Don't ever try to force the issue, or make crazy demands that he choose between his computer and you. Remember, his computer has been there for him his whole life; you are a new interloper he hasn't quite grasped yet.

The geek dude has long work habits and tends to bring his work home with him. He seems permanently connected to his hard disk. You must at least appear interested in his work. Generally, a solid understanding of the computer is a must; if you cannot master this, you should at least be able to talk the talk. Remember most geeks are anal and they get stressed about details which appear insignificant.

I love situations like this.
Last year in Juli I ordered a Airride Suspesion kit from EC-Parts in Berlin and told them that I leave Berlin at the end of August. Gues what happened … the kit didn't arive, of corse it was not theyr fault, it was the vendor that didn't deliver the parts ( Bullokstyle ) but since I went to Stuttgart and Bullokstyle was in aceptable distance from Stuttgart I decided to let them built it in.
Since the first day the suspension was mounted, the rear valves have a problem. When I come in the morning to the car, or after a longer standing, the rear is quite up in the air, rather like a Jeep then a tuned car.
Since I don't realy have the time to change the valves myself I decided to wait with it until I'm in Berlin again and let EC-Parts do it. Well now I'm in Berlin since 2 Months, this is my last week, actualy my last 2 days and nothing happened until now.
Every week there was something new, "no time", "bullock style didn't call back" ….
ok I finaly got an apointment for Thursday ( today ) and I went on tuesday to EC-Parts to check if they can reach the valves or if I have to get my music out and offered them if I should leave the car there and they could start whenever they want.
"oh no, I'm not sure if the parts are here, I will call you as soon as I know if the parts are here" well … no call, today is thursday so I called to ask if they forgot about me.
"Oh it's not our business anymore, you talked with the service, this is actualy a separate company, I done my job ordering the parts and the parts are here since monday" oh greaaat!
NOW this is customer suport! thank you very much! ok anyway I hope they will finish it by tomorrow or else I will be quite angry, not that I'm not already ….

Here it is, my new "Adorini Humidor Chianti medium" hope it will arrive until Monday. This will give enough space for the cigars I will bring back from Cuba What a pity for all out of the US that can't enjoy a real Cuban ciagr ( I'm not mean at all, am I? ) This was once again one of that lessons … you try to save money and save on the wrong place, a tip for all of you that want a humidor, get a good one right from the beginning. Oh almost forgot to mention, I ordered it yesterday from Humidor Discount and guess what, they already sent out the package, yesterday …
I'll make some pics when I filled the Humidor

Once again I had to talk on the phone with one of my favourite German company, the big, bad Magenta coloured T-Com. I had to pay a bill, but since I have a Austrian bank account I need IBAN and SWIFT/BIC for the transaction but they wrote only the IBAN on that bill, now this is the first real stupid thing! So what should I do … call T-Com, the ones responsible for bills, so I assumed they have at least a clue about banking.

Me: "Hello"
TC: "Hello"
Me: "I would need the SWIFT Code so I can pay the bill"
TC: "what's that?"
Me: "For a bank transaction outside of Germany I need IBAN and SWIFT, I got the IBAN but the swift, also called BIC Code, is missing"
TC: "I think you are wrong here, you have to call T-Online"
Me: "No, I called the number that's on the bill"
TC: "ehhhm… one moment please"
*beep**beep*
yes … she hung up!

ok I'm used to this so I called again, got someone else on the phone. the usual Hi, bla bla .. this time, she first wanted my customer number and then my address to verify. haeh??? ok then back to my problem.
Me: "I need the SWIFT Code …."
TC: "You don't get that from us, you get that from your bank"
Me: "What? I'm talking about IBAN and SWIFT or BIC, I know them for my bank, but I have to pay YOU money so I need YOUR SWIFT not mine"
TC: "No they don't have that, I have to ask my bank"
Me: "Oh this is getting to stupid, you are all so unbelievable stupid, you can all kiss my ass"
*beep**beep*
this time I hung up
