New Terms and Conditions!

Ok, how many of you have *ever* read the terms and conditions?  But we still all check the box.  I had a vendor, who I pay money to, that had the new terms and conditions come up in the middle of updating some information on my site.  It was early Monday morning and I was in my usual foul humor!  So I blasted off an email about how stupid it was to change the terms and conditions in the middle of a contract and so forth.

I get an email back saying that if I didn't say that I agreed to the terms and conditions by Friday they were going to cancel my contract.  Guess I hit a nerve.  Anyway, I replied that I had in fact agreed to their terms and conditions in the same fashion everyone else had and if that wasn't good enough, go ahead and cancel my contract and I will sue!

Guess we will find out Friday what they decided since even though they are an Internet company, they cant seem to answer an email withing a couple of days.

oh, it's VRBO or Vacation Rentals By Owner if you were wondering who the control freaks are!

Side by Side Drivers from Daleville to Fincastle.

So it appears that the driving infection of the metropolitan areas of Virginia has spread to Botetourt County. We had the unfortunate experience of returning from the new Harry Potter movie at around 6 pm tonight.  When we got off the interstate at exit 150, traffic was pretty heavy.  Even on 81 it was a little thick.  The usual offenders were in the left lane, but we made it in pretty good time. The ride from I81 to Rt. 779 was the usual cluster f**k of idiots in both lanes.  When we got to the stoplight, the left turn lane was green.  This effectively ruined the usual strategy of letting the turning traffic scrape off the slowpokes in the left lane.  So here we go from Daleville to Fincastle, 8 miles of slowpoke hell.  I was able to work my way up to the idiot in the old pickup that was driving next to the same car in the left lane for 8 miles with about 100 cars behind him and tried to work past him but he won the asshole of the day award!  I...

Sea, Land, and Air or tax, tax, and tax?

The Virginia State police are operating their mega tax program this weekend on the interstates. The claim is they are going to make us safer by giving out tickets for not wearing our seat belts, even though they promised when the nanny's made the law, that it would be a secondary offense.There is some evidence that primary seat belt enforcement kills more pedestrians, since the drivers feel more secure and drive more aggressively. Let's talk about the speed limit. It's an arbitrary number that some unknown entity charges according to their mood. I can remember the interstate speed limit being everything from 45 to 80, the road didn't change so it must be an arbitrary number. Lots of places change the number to create speed trap tax income. I guess if they could they would do the whole state like out tax collecting State police. Didn't really feel safer today on 81 from Bristol to Blacksburg. Same number of idiots in the left lane. It just seemed like everything ...

Broken windows piss me off!

I woke up yesterday at the hotel in Glen Burnie, MD and the back passenger window of my truck was broken! All they took was some quarters that I had in the console. There was lots of other good stuff, tools, silver dollars and so forth there but these guys were going for quantity not quality. They apparently hit 22 cars at the Comfort Inn across the street and 10 or more at the Days Inn we were staying at. They did not get the work van for some reason. The manager said he would give me a discount on my room for the expense. It was his opinion that a glass place nearby was paying people to do it. He said an undercover cop was working the lot one night and caught a guy doing it and that's what his story as. That guy was just breaking them and one time just took a windshield out and threw it in the woods. Like to find out who the glass company is so I can go kick their ass!
