Re: TI-H: Jason Dyer
Hmm, alright i'll jump into it. How about before you
"e-bomb" him, talked to his parents first. Chances are,
his parents are going to be total dickheads. If you explain what
happened, I'm sure they'll do something about it. I mean, 24.50 is
a lot of money. It's also the time involved, a month and a half and
you got nothing. Just call them up first, then if they are
dickheads . . . I'll right back with another "talk you out of
it" letter. =)
Anyway, i really don't care, i just wanted to test out my new
signature. =) Like it?

Like inventing some new hardware for the TI.
