[readermail]HOLY SHIT PAM. I JUST GOT A LETTER IN THE MAIL THAT TOLD ME OF A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST PACIFIC BELL AND THEIR SHITTY DSL. WE COULD BE ENTITLED TO $20 (TWENTY AND 00/100 U.S. DOLLARS)!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WITH YOUR HALF? I USED TO TRY AND PUT A PRICE TAG ON THE DSL PAIN AND SUFFERING WE EXPERIENCED, NOT ONCE DID I THINK TWENTY DOLLARS (I JUST HAD TO WIPE EXCITEMENT SPIT OFF MY COMPUTER SCREEN FROM SAYING THAT NUMBER OUT LOUD). I’LL KEEP YOU POSTED. I’M OFF TO BUY GUM.[/readermail]
