I'm on the same page as you. I hate phone calls. Txt me or email me or even IM me so I can get to you when I am ready. Or evaluate what you want to discuss and decide if I want to ignore you all together.
I can't agree more with this. Just recently a friend was telling me about the TV Show "My Worse Enemy" and to me it sounded like something I might want to watch and actually wanted to watch. So I started to DVR the show, but it was already a few months in.
So I thought well I'll go download and watch the first 5 or so episodes that I missed and catch up. Because I hate watching a show from the middle, other then a sitcom. So I went on the NBC site and look for the episodes, but they didn't have the first 5 episodes. They start at Episode 5 or 6 only, and then only have snippets of the previous ones.
So I went on bit torrent sites, only to find no one shared out the first episode. Then I thought I'd try Hulu and they didn't have the first 4 episodes.
So what the hell? Since I can't watch the show, I deleted the DVR shows and canceled the recordings. If I can't catch up then I'll never watch it. If they would have made the content freely available after it aired, I would have watched all the episodes in question and then would have caught up on the DVR shows, and then started watching them live.
So yes they are shooting themselves in the foot, because now I'm done with the desire or interest to ever see the show.
I don't agree that Police tracked him down with old fashioned detective work. They only caught him because he was dumb enough to try and ask for money at a park and go pick it up.
"But on December 3, police intercepted an email demanding a large sum of money be "dropped off" at a local park, and the man was arrested by undercover officers."

Face
Should start spreading the superintendent's face on a bunch of different bodies and make it go viral.

Yeah, Original source of article, commentators are saying it's not stock, but modified to look like stock.
So Mad
This story just pisses me off. I'm so mad right now that the system even is allowed to work this way. I just had to vent.
THANKS!!
I hope they change positions.
