This entry will probably end up as a collection of various topics, hence the name.
Just went shopping, nothing worthwhile happened during that bland experience. Check my mailbox and found 1 publication from the city council, my weekly Humo, a letter reminding me that I hadn't made a yearly donation yet - done now - and some promotional pamphlet for Record Bank.
I have a very clear sign on my mailbox stating that I don't want to receive such mailings yet they refuse to honor my wish. Makes one wonder how correct they are when it comes to financial transactions, doesn't it? Ah well... no time to waste fretting about it, just another company on my shit list.
Yes, call me stubborn or even foolish, but I do keep a mental list of companies I'll never deal with due to their arrogance or non-compliance. In fact if they come up with a really good deal or promotion, I'll request all information, make them work for it and then when all is about to be finalized, back out and tell them I can't do business with them. If they feel right abusing my valuable time, I can waste some of their resources as well. It's the only way to make them understand. Ok, enough about that now...
Time to update/patch your windows installations, people. Over 20MB worth of patches have been released today fixing vulnerabilities in windows XP, Office,...
Anything else? Nah, that'll be it for today.

I have the same sign on the letterbox; but lately people seem to ignore it and push in unrequested 'litter'; mostly from Aldi (cheap supermarket)! They 'spam' me every week now! And for the record: don't deal with record bank; they have a very bad reputation (apart from being on your shit list already)!
