From Customerssuck.com:

"I received a call the other day from a lady who couldn't find her sports channels. I looked up her services and saw she should be receiving about 60 channels, many of which are for sports. I asked her which channels she was getting, and she told me she only gets 9 stations (chs. 1-9). I thought maybe her television was on the wrong channel and proceeded to troubleshoot with that in mind. Well, it turns out that wasn't the problem. Since 1992, she has only been getting 9 stations. According to her, this was because her remote control only had numbers 0-9 on it. When I explained to her she needed to press double digits into the remote control to get channels above 9, she then said she wanted credit all the way back to 1992. (What, for her stupidity????) She stated she was never told our remote worked differently than her old remote. After putting her on hold so I could regain my composure.... I told her all remotes only have number buttons from 0-9 and her old remote never had an "11", "12", "13" etc. button on it either!!!!! Please, people.... use a little common sense!!!!!!!"

From AlterNet: I Want My SUV

"To be fair, Ford actually has tried to make its SUVs play nice with other vehicles. For example, the new 2000 Excursion comes equipped with a solid-steel bar (called the Blocker Beam tm) attached to the front of its lower frame. Honest to God, it's a device designed to keep your car from sliding under the Excursion when it runs into you and your family."

What a relief.

Yes, it's a mouth wash that makes you want to quit smoking.

"The new mouth rinse is a product of the same creative mind that developed the first Xerox copy paper, Ciancio said. The product's data sheet describes it as a breath-freshening, germ-killing liquid that works like any normal mouthwash with one notable exception: For 5-8 hours after using it, "the taste of cigarette smoke is distorted to the point where the person will not smoke past the first puff.""

Got this in email and think it's funny enough to blog. This was supposedly sent to Dr.Laura in response to her claim that homosexuality is an abomination because it says so in the bible.

Dear Dr. Laura,
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's law. I have learned a great deal from you, and I try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind him that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination..... End of debate !

I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some of the specific laws and how to best follow them as a true believer.

When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord (Lev. 1:9). The problem is my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. How should I deal with this?

I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as it suggests in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her?

I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanliness (Lev. 15:19-24). The problem is, how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.

Lev. 25:44 states that I may buy slaves from the nations that are around us. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans but not Canadians. Can you clarify?

I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2 clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself?

A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination (Lev. 10:10), it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this?

Lev. 20:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear prescription glasses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle room here?

I know you have studied these things extensively, so I am confident that you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging.
