Here I Am

Dear Mr. XXX

We are sorry to hear that you had problems with your computer at such an
early stage. However, a final report on your computer was done and the
conclusion was that the computer crashed due to ubiquitous amounts of gay
pornography on the hard drive. While it is not apple's goal to discriminate
against people of different orientations, it is our goal to lead our
customers to safe internet experiences.


Apple
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is an exact copy and paste from support@apple.com. My friend bought a new ibook less than 6 months ago and the hard drive was faulty. After giving him the run around for about a month, and finally replacing the hard drive about 2 weeks ago, he gets this email.
First of all, the problem is fixed, the customer is happy, why send out an ignorant email? Second of all, I think Apple computer, and graphics, music, and VIDEO come to mind. Macs are made to be multimedia computers. How and why they would possibly blame their faulty hard drive on videos, regardless of the content of the video, is beyond me. THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE MADE FOR. And support@apple.com, my friend wants his porn back...

I own an older model ibook, and use it frequently for many different purposes. Seeing the way that Apple behaved toward this customer makes me seriously not want to ever purchase an Apple product. The attitude seems to be to sell something, and then not give a damn whether it works 6 months later or not. I dunno...

It has been so long since I've posted on here, I don't even know where to start. Um... Well, work is going well, I have a boyfriend now, my friend Walter from Pittsburgh is moving down here, and my car is fucked up.

Yeah, I am hoping to get a promotion at work within the next week or so. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but more on that later. I don't want to jinx myself.

I got a new cell phone, it's fabulous... I was so tired of my other one, I'm so glad I don't have to be seen in public with that thing anymore. Yeah, it was that bad. Consequently, after getting the new phone, my first flip phone, btw, I was attached to it 24/7 for several days, and I'm quite scared of seeing my phone bill. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be like that commercial where the phone bill breaks the dining room table... Ouch.

OK, so Matt, my boyfriend. How'd that happen? Well, we met at Starbucks, and that was a month ago tomorrow. We've only been dating for a couple weeks though. Matt is super sweet and funny and oh yeah, hot... LOL. Hi Matt! He's coming over later after he gets off work.
Matt lives in North Tampa, so it's a little far, but up until this point that hasn't really been an issue.

Last Thursday, on my way to work, I put my foot on the brake, and it went all the way to the floor. I lost almost all brake pressure. I drove like an elderly person the rest of the way to work. I was only a couple blocks away, so that's a good thing.
I took my car to a garage last night, and the guy called me at work this morning at 8:30 and told me it was gonna be at least a grand to fix it. There are some other problems going on as well, but that is just so overwhelming. I just got my Florida plates and license plate and switched over my insurance, which, let me tell ya, is not cheap. And now my car is undrivable. ARGH. Such is life... I need a cigarette.

Ah, much better now. I really should write in this thing more often...

So yeah, Walter is coming down to live in Tampa. He will be here on Sunday. I'm so excited, I can't wait to see him.

OK, that's it for now. I'm gonna go eat something now. :)
