Hate Mail

This section is dedicated to all the bone heads that send me stupid e-mails.
Most of the time, I get these from complete strangers who have never e-mailed me before, and they decide to fire one off and blindside me.
There's certainly a lot of power when you're sitting behind a keyboard, isn't there?

Please feel free to e-mail them back a note!
But on the other side of the coin - if they reply back to me and apologize, I will promptly remove their name, e-mail address and their message.

Here's a tail of Justin Kuhns.

PLEASE NOTE: This Justin Kuhns is NOT RELATED to Justin P. Kuhns in Columbia, SC.
That Justin P. Kuhns is a fine, upstanding citizen with lofty goals and of high esteem.

Now, with that being said, please read on about the slimeball Justin Kuhns of Springfield, MO.

Back in July of 2002, Justin Kuhns sent me a money order for $25, for an autograph of Marilyn Burns and Paul Partain, along with this friendly letter.  I turned around and sent him an autograph of Marilyn and Paul right after I received his "payment".  When I tried to cash the money order with my bank a couple of months later, I came to find out that he had cancelled the money order.  It turns out that if I had cashed the money order within the first 2 weeks that it was issued, the money order would have cleared.  But, Justin, within his infinite wisdom, knew that if I hadn't cashed the money order within the first two weeks, that he could stop payment on the money order and keep his autograph that I had sent him AND keep his lousy $25 dollars.

Before I knew this, I got a letter from my bank explaining that the money order had a stop payment on it.  So I sent a friendly letter to Justin explaining the situation.  Would it surprise you that I haven't heard a word from him at all since then?
Would it surprise you, that after dropping a single message through AOL IM to him, that he logged off, and probably blocked me?

I told him, via his e-mail address, that I would hang on to this situation for YEARS to come, and that his cancelled check would remain on my desk until this issue was resolved.  I have kept my promise and continued to try to collect this debt from him since 2002 with no avail.  I know that one would dismiss this and write it off.  But I believe that if someone has $25, and couldn't pay it immediately, that if they have a good and honest heart, that they would at least be honest with me and work something out with me.  They would STAY IN COMMUNICATION with me about this little situation.  Believe me, I don't need the $25.  I'm not starving.  I've already paid Marilyn Burns and Paul Partain for the autograph sale out of my pocket a long time ago.

It's the PRINCIPLE of the matter.  And I want Justin Kuhns to PAY HIS DEBT.

His current address is 1424 Buena Vista, Springfield, MO (417) 693-7591 Hm & Cell.
His MySpace page is  http://www.myspace.com/liveconcertdvds.
His working e-mail address is dammmefather@aol.com
He uses AOL IM and his screen name is dammmefather.
He also uses the screen name of "Justin 666" at times.
He's an eBay user as well.  His eBay name is heartofmetal.

Here's a list of links, provided by Google, with reference to this dickhead, that proves to me that he's still alive and kicking in Missouri.

I urge you to drop Mr. Kuhns a line, to see how things are in his world, and ask him if my pursuit of him since July of 2002 has been worth the $25 he saved.
