Somebody tried that with **my** cup, I’d threaten to break his fingers. I don’t **care** that Pac Bell is changing their name, that cup has been with me for years and has sentimental value and might even become a collectors item now that Pac Bell doesn’t use that name any more!

I’m sure non-pacific-coasters don’t get 'em. I do, and I hate them about 60% as much as the Verizon guy. Aah, who am I kidding? I hate everyone on TV commercials…

You know, folks, Dell _does_ have a zero tolerance policy towards drugs and arrests. This could very well spell the end of the guy’s career as a Dell pitchman! 😃

As usual, I agreed with [what James Lileks had to say](http://lileks.com/bleats/archive/03/0203/021203.html) about the incident, cause like it or not, Dell Dude is a seldom sung hero of 9-11.

Just want to say that I’m stunned that so many of you have come out in favor of an astonishingly repressive drug policy simply because someone you find annoying got hit by it.

(Sheesh, this is _possession_. It’s not like he’s accused of selling it to babies or anything.)

Learn something every day, I guess.
