Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Somebody stole my name. Well Grump really is inadequate at this point. The Internet is the home of the village idiot.* No staring at me. Stop it right now! I'm not going to take any more abuse – however accurate.

First the minor one and then I will move on to the support gurus at Full Tilt. I started to register on Facebooks. I wanted to be someone's friend for some stupid reason. (stupid: see idiot) and didn't really complete the registration in annoyance with the questions. But, they got an email address. It was a throw away email address that identified their site as the source. So, this email address that was entered just one time in its history and only on Facebooks is getting spam referencing my Facebooks chatting with some bimbo who now wants me to click over to her personal site in Russia. Right! Just give me a second...

OK, you recall I downloaded the update to Full Tilt. This was post their doing site maintenance. I wrote them they repeatedly crashed their application on my machine. Well, the form responses arrived telling me to do everything but blame them. It was obviously my internet connection and I needed to fill in a whole list of responses so they could tell me how to fix my machine. As a joke, I did that and got another similar letter asking for the same info again.
The sad thing is that there are folks out there that accept that tech support and their congressmen are wiser than they are. Big mistake. But, some of us know how the smoke in our ass got there.
BTW, it appears they've fixed it. I can now (knock on wood) play the start of SnGs and Tournaments without the application crashing. Seeing I haven't had to download another update, my guess is the server upgrade included malformed packets. Those are the things the bad guys use to try to break into our system. Maybe Microsoft got something right and so it was bye-bye FT application when it crashed the stack.

*Can I still say idiots? I know retard – however descriptive – is out. Now I have a lovely cousin that is Down's Syndrome and I would never say that in front of her. But, I am glad Emanuel and all those self-serving idiots that vote for all that PC crap get hoisted on their own petards now and then. How can they say retard is out? He was talking about Congress!!!
Man! talk about a media frenzy over something lacking even the sound bite. I am loving it.

At work they’ve banned us from going to Facebook (or Basefook as we like to call it). That’s great for me, not tempted to waste time, although I go there briefly most nights.
