Life is GOOD!!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

I got my money back from the bank after the fraudulent charges!! I love my bank! $86 was deposited this morning. I'm so happy. And I got the best compliment from one of my mortgagors today at work. Apparently I'm the sweetest, nicest person and have a calming influence on people. Life is just good! B-)

1. Well, they're happy because it's not the bank's fault the crime happened..

Just like how it's not the gun seller's fault for when a murder or rape takes place or how kazaa and napster aren't guilty when copyrighted music is downloaded!

(well, 2 out of 3 ain't bad...)

Kewl that you got your money back without issue, though! :toast:

2. Please tell me you're not one of those sympathetic to record companies!!

Did you know that when the cd burners were invented they made sure they got a cut of every blank CD bought to offset the money they MIGHT lose due to them? They are already getting paid. They are just greedy bastards not deserving of your sympathy.

3. I did not know that..

I'll take you at your word on that but I would LOVE to see a link or two. I have other beefs with the record companies, this would add to them.

4. Exactly what you asked for...

Here are several links, though not all of them deal with the CD issue:
