 DK> So take every story like that....... and I was that manager. Our stories

 AP> You know back in 1992 I was working at Circut City.  I was an

 AP> When I finally (and firmly) told him it was 7 years past it's warranty
 AP> he finally resolved to the fact that it wasn't going to happen and he

 AP> well sir you can stick that VCR up your ass.

 AP> Now I heard that like at least five or six times a day and had a

 AP> To that he picked up the VCR and threw it at me opening a gash on my

 AP> Meanwhile I was bleeding heavily and the EMT's got there.  My blood
