seriously the fuckin answering machine has been around a while, who doesn't know how it operates? So why in the name of all that is holy, do I have to listen to the fuckin Hal 9000 explain to me how to leave a message... AFTER just listening to a fuckin recorded message from the person I am calling?
I know people aren't sharp but do you really have to have the instructions twice? Do you need to hear a message of the nimrod actually still explaining "after the tone leave me a short message, your name and a number and i'll blah blah". Then Hal comes on and tells you to "speak after the tone".
At least with sprint you have the option to just press 1 right away and skip everything but I hate the providers that do not allow this option, cause they want to torture you. Cause if you do press one, it just prolongs the pain cause then they explain "one is not a recognized function.... now I will start explaining everything from the begining SUCKER!!!"

Quote:The trademark infringement lawsuit being brought against rap star Jay-Z by former wrestling star Diamond Dallas Page now is also targeting Jay-Z's clothing line, Roc-A-Wear. DDP claims that he owns the rights to the Diamond Cutter hand gesture that Jay-Z has been doing lately and has now put on certain items in his clothing line. The lawsuit is expected to remain in the discovery period until April 2007.
DDP's people sent out the following statement yesterday.
Federal Judge Grants Motion to Add Roc-A-Wear to Pro Wrestling Champion, Diamond Dallas Page's Lawsuit Against Rap Mogul Jay-Z
(LA, California) A federal judge granted a motion to add Roc-A-Wear owners Roc Apparel Group LLC, Urban Menswear LLC and Roc-A-Wear Licensing LLC to a trademark and copyright infringement suit filed by Professional Wrestler Diamond Dallas Page. The suit, originally filed December 2, 2005, claims the hip-hop heavyweight has illegally adopted Page's trademark hand gesture—the "Diamond Cutter"—as his own.
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles Federal Court, accuses Jay-Z and Roc-A-Fella Records of trademark and copyright infringement as well as misappropriation of the hand symbol. Page is seeking an injunction (meaning Jay-Z would be prohibited from using the gesture) and unspecified monetary damages.
Earlier this year, Diamond Dallas Page discovered that Jay Z's clothing line, Roc-A-Wear manufactured and sold merchandise displaying the diamond cutter symbol, which prompted the request that the clothing line be included in the lawsuit. Page started using the hand sign to promote his persona on television while working for World Championship Wrestling in 1996. As his popularity increased, so did the recognition of the sign as his trademark, by fans, athletes and celebrities.
As Page has moved on from wrestling to other entertainment and business ventures, he has continued to us the sign as a brand-building logo. Currently, his "Yoga For Regular Guys" DVD series and book, and his soon to be released "Own Your Life" motivational audio book features the symbol. The well-loved wrestler also says he used the symbol on monthly PPV events, WCW live events, and media appearances, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Page goes on to assert that as his success as a wrestler grew, so did sales of his merchandise, including t-shirts, hats, stationary, posters and action figures, which featured the Diamond Cutter Trademark. The infringement claim also states that, "[m]any athletes and celebrities also flashed the Diamond Cutter sports celebration move. "In Game 6 of the 1998 NBA finals against the Chicago Bulls, Karl Malone, the Utah Jazz star basketball player, flashed the Diamond Cutter Trademark during the game and referred to the symbol as Plaintiff's hand sign. Similarly, former professional football player and Dallas Cowboy star running back, Herschel Walker used the Diamond Cutter Trademark after a 64 yard touchdown run and also acknowledged that it was Plaintiff's signature trademark."
Page is currently shooting the movie Gallow Walker in South Africa with Wesley Snipes and is not available for comment

So I'm at work today, and this chick walks in to fill out some paperwork. From the moment she walks in, she is totally hitting on me. I mean it is blatantly obvious, sexual innuendo and all.
She was cute, definitely doable. Plus, I love the spanish chicks with their big ass and DSL (Dick Sucking Lips). Also, she is blonde, which also moves her up the list.
She wanted my phone number, but I wouldn't give it up. I am happily engaged and I really do not want to go down that road.
So, what would you have done?
