I just got a call from my bank's fraud protection......I got hit for almost 6000 dollars from my debit card being copied...physically copied and used to buy camera equipment last nite and this morning....I know I'll get it back but the annoyance is what pisses me off...WTF is this world coming too???? I wish I could get 10 mins alone w/ scum like this.....even when I lived on the street I didn't rob people....this sucks ass......there is only one place that could have copied my card....a restaurant I frequent in Ft. Lauderdale......it's the only place i ever let my card go out of my sight......unless the spyware was on my PC longer than I knew about...but that's a little paranoid.......man I get good news last week and poop news this week...anyone else feel like they're on a roller coaster for life????I have no cash on me unless I take time to go to the bank and stand on line now.....fuckin theives deserve to die.....if any of you kids on this site are little theives don't let me catch you...I don't care if you're robbing a grocery store.....even that affects me in the long run......be honest and be a fuckin man about your responsibilities in life......
 
I hope that you aren't responsible for any of that.
 
No I'll get it back.....but it just sucks......I have such crap luck...I went and screamed in my car after I got the call.....
 
I get so worried nowadays that there are still people like that. Where is the good sense of people these days? I am glad that you are not going to be stuck with that. I try to use cash all the time.Paypal even worries.
 
I have a decent system that usually works and keeps me from getting hit but they happened to hit my card when I had a shitload of cash in my 2nd checking account and that is what my debit card is overdraft protected from....I'm trying to buy a townhouse the end of this month and I put 8000 in that checking account to pay some fees and what not......they couldn't have planned it any better......it makes me wonder if this was from the spyware problem I've been having at home.....I hate carrying cash...if I have it in my pocket I spend it.....I keep track of all my card purchases though....I am one of the most careful people to not get hit like this and I got whacked....friggin scum.....I'm about ready to move to new zealand or Norway or some friggin other country...let the scum have this place...I atribute a lot of this poop mindset to who we have as roll models in this country......just turn on MTV and hear what these guys are saying to the kids.....I sound like such an old fart now.....I listen to Hip Hop too but what is out on there now is just crap.......I don't care what you have in your garage I care more about how you got it now...selling dope and robbing people and then writting songs about it making you more money is just really getting to be too much for me.......YOU ARE NOT WHAT YOU OWN......things you own do not define you.....who cares if you don't have the nicest crap on the block...I'd rather have something that I earned because I'll take care of it than some super nice thing I treat like crap.......I'll stop now cause I'm going to start ranting all day long if I don't.......I said It before and I say it now...LITTLE THEIVES DESERVE TO DIE!!!!!!!!
 
LOL...yeah I got a few job offers in carrolton.....close to Dallas...but I am stuck in S. Hell...at least until my daughter is 18 or my Ex falls on her face......which may happen sooner than I thought....
 
no man houston!! dallas is to far away.. "just grab the kid and run i tell ya.." lol
man i hope you the best.. you may be a smart ass sometimes but your a good guy and damn you got some bad luck.. if there was a way i could help i would but i dont see anything that anyone can really do.. it will all be better some day...
 
Man Plaid... you have got the shittiest luck i have ever seen! Track em down and beat the hell out of em! Shoot him in the knee caps or something...
 
I keep thinking it has to get better...my luck runs in cycles...I got news last week that just rocks....so I looked for a house and I got a bunch of bad poop through that....then I found one looks like a slam dunk so far....hoping to close by the end of the month.....adn now this......it goes up it goes down it goes up it goes down.....the waves of good/bad luck in my life are making me see sick....sick of seeing my luck go up and down......I have one more hearing to go to but it looks like the assholes pressing charges against me got arrested together...and their whole defense was trying to play them off as they were not in the club together, didn't know each other blah blah blah....well they got busted together selling coke...HAHAHAHAHA so next hearing we make a motion to dismiss their complaints based on the load of BS they fed the court.....as long as my bank doesn't keep my money too long I'll try not to get all heated....I'm gonna give myself a friggin heart attack if I don't.....this site rocks...I get to read cool RC stuff all day and vent my pised off feelings at the world all in one place.....I gotta get to one of the big bashes this year and meet all you guys.....
 
i guess i missed the stuff about court plaid cause I'm lost on that stuff.. hope you the best with the house..
 
Plaid,

Hang in there man. You are a heads up guy with a great future I am sure. Just got to get through the poop. If I knew life was going be like this I would have never grown up.... wait.. I didn't Ha! Life is not fair that's for sure. Who ever came up with that saying wasn't just whistling freakin dixie! This guy my girl used to work for, great guy, nice as can be, has a son who is fighting his way through cancer and a daughter who just tried to commit suicide for the 5th time in 2 years... this time almost succeeding. I feel for you my friend. I know what you are going through. Not exactly going through, but similar experiences. I went to refinance my house 3 years ago, and found that the title had never been transfered from the previous owners that I bought the house from almost 2 years back. Of course I found this out at the table. I about had a heart attack. Could have gotten real ugly. Basically I was paying for a house that technically someone else owned. Sucked ass. Anyway.... if you ever need anything Plaid let me know and I will do what ever I can to help. Hang in there buddy. It does get better.... Take that TC3 out and drift a while... guarantee it will put a smile on your face! See ya..

thanks tom,
I'll finish it tonite, I just got a new ESC for it and a new batt pack......should be one hell of a screamer now......
 
and I just got a date during lunch.....my buddies sister in law moved down here a few months ago and she just dumped her boyfriend last month....fresh college grad...yum
 
I guess I'm on the upswing of luck again......unless she's psycho....wait they're all psycho....oh great more poop luck....
 
hopefully she will be hot and stacked.. and like to play with toys.. then she would be perfect..
 
well the hot and stacked part is there.. but she go a degree in criminal Psychology......I wonder if I'm supposed to be a case study......LOL
 
Plaidfish, i'm sorry to hear what has happened, but the bright side is you'll get your money back. I know what S**t luck is like, here's a taste of what i'm dealing with right now.
Last August my wife and I packed up everything and went to Hudson Florida to take care of the wifes ailing Father, who passed away on New Years Eve. We decided that Florida wasn't for us, so we made our plans to move back to Colorado. Three days before we were to leave, we got a call from the Coroner that our 18 year old son had died, apparently from suicide. I flew my wife and oldest son back to Colorado. My brother in law and me took off 2 days later to make the 1960 mile drive back, me in our Durango towing a 23' camper and my brother in law driving my van. We made it to Macon Georgia and the engine in my Astro Van blew up. 1250 bucks later we were back on the road with a rented uhaul and car dolly to tow the van. Once we got back, I had funeral costs and a multitude of other bills to pay. I managed to find a job within a week of being back, but last week the owner of the company decided the swing shift he had started wasn't cost efficent and I lost my job. The wife has been looking for work since we got back, but has had no luck. As it stands, we're getting down to our last dollar, and we are now facing that fact that we may lose the Durango and our House. All we have right now is our faith that God will get us through this.
I know all to well about the roller coaster ride, i've been dealing with it all year so far.

dude that really sucks.....sorry to hear that man....I have to say hearing things like that do make my problems seem petty...and I do reallize they are...it just sucks when you're in the middle of a bunch of petty issues.....I had one of those life changing scenarios that makes you try to see the better side of life many years ago....If I had not changed the person I was I would probably be dead or worse by now......I do realize I am lucky in many ways....I never would have thought I'd be in a position to enjoy something like RCs or to even be able to think of looking for a house...in the last 8 years since my daughter was born I count many blessings I have and don't really let that slip from my sight.....I feel for you man...I can't imagine what loosing a child is like and my deepest sympathies go out to you and your wife.......you just have to look at the positives in life or find some new ones...they are out there.....I know.....I have found many of them, and in places I didn't really expect to or even want to at first.....let's just say kharma has a way of coming back to you (good and bad).....mine just comeback at the same time it seems......
 
I'm sorry I posted that, I don't need to be posting my problems on these forums. If FastEddy or one of the mods see's a need to remove that post, please do so.
