DO NOT BUY an LG Product
We bought a new LG french door refrigerator model # LFX25974ST on 4/7/12 from Home Depot. On 7/1/12 it stopped cooling. We notified Home Depot on 7/2/12 the morning we discovered the problem and they arranged a service appointment through the local LG authorized service company. They said they needed to order parts and it would be 2 to 4 business days for those parts to be delivered. They also advised us there was a "Known Issue" with the computer board that controlled the system. It took 10 days for the service tech to arrive to repair the system and when He did it turns out they had ordered the wrong part as it would not fit the refrigerator.
We have been without a working refrigerator for 12 days now and still have no idea exactly when a repair will be completed. LG's customer service had "no record" of the service call or request and has so far offered no solution to this problem.
I am beyond the point of anger at this and I will never buy another LG product willingly ever again. The lack of service is appalling and the fact they had a known issue and did not have the proper replacement parts available is just one of many problems I have experienced with the company.
Believe me you would be much better off buying a refrigerator from any other company than LG. Be warned LG's products are substandard and they have no desire to offer a reasonable solution when they break. DO NOT BUY AN LG FOR ANY REASON.

RIP Lennox Shame on the city of Belfast
Today a great injustice was done by an overreaching governmental body that refused to take even a common sense approach to law enforcement. Today the city government of Belfast Ireland murdered a family pet. A mixed breed family pet named Lennox was killed by the Belfast City Council in cold blood. I have lost much esteem I once held for the UK in general and for Belfast specifically. To use a tape measure to determine whether a Dog is dangerous is the height of insanity and to then kill an animal that has caused harm to no one is tantamount to murder and should be treated in exactly the same manner.
Hasn't the world learned through bitter experience that judging anything based solely on racial/breed traits is the refuge of the most vile and evil humans that have set foot on this planet? There are too many examples in humanities past of the use of the very same logic to perpetrate some of the most horrendous crimes against humanity to choose the one to which the Belfast City Council is most similar.
It is a truism that one can tell much about a civilization by how it treats its animals. Unfortunately today's actions by the city of Belfast speak volumes about the character of the leaders of that city and brings shame on the people of Belfast and the entire UK for allowing this to continue. This is truly a black mark on the honor of the entire country.
Today is the day all the people of the UK should take action to redress this issue. You should speak to your government and tell them they need to find another way, a way that does not punish the innocent for the crimes of the guilty. Whether those innocents are human or animal it is simply wrong to take an innocent life for no good reason. Particularly a life that had shown itself gentle and kind in ways many humans have yet to understand or at least it seems the Belfast City Government has yet to understand.
Shame, Shame,Shame that is really all that can be said about this and it is hoped that the so called humans that made this decision will come to the realization of their error and find a better way to address this issue in the future.
I write this with great sadness at the loss of an innocent life and with great hope that the good people of Belfast and the rest of the UK will rapidly find a way to keep this from happening again.

A picture of my new SWTOR pet
I picked him up on Tatooine during the Rackghoul epidemic. He doesn't do much but watch us as we run around.

I'm Baaack
Hi there,
I am back for a quick breather from the deep dark hole that has occupied quite a bit of my time. I must admit I have fallen off the wagon and I am now back addicted to MMORPG's. I have been spending almost all my free time playing Star Wars the Old Republic or as I like to call it Pixel Crack. I'm really not too sure how often I will be checking in here as you can see it's been almost 5 months since my last post. SWTOR has me firmly in its force enhanced grip and I'm not really sure I want it to let go just yet. I have been busy leveling characters, Crafting items and just running rampant across the galaxy. I guess I have to admit I am a big SWTOR Fan and just leave it at that. I would suggest anyone who likes online MMO's give this one a try. I have played almost all the really big ones and I think I like this one the best so far.

Updates: The political prisoners are all moved out to the gulags and the holding area has been renovated for other uses. The Feline tried to lay claim to the area but was removed by security personnel. The canines didn't seems to show much interest in the change at all. The canines are rather oblivious to most things I've noticed. The move was made without incident and completed easily all the prisoners moved are doing well in their new homes. There was one casualty in this although the medical staff say the loss was due to natural causes as the prisoner was not doing well to start with.
With the coming of autumn it is hoped things will cool down in the workers paradise and perhaps there will be more issues to report between the canines and the feline. As it sits right now the canines have the feline outnumbered and the feline has the canines outclassed. Which leaves us in a bit of a stalemate situation. Minor attacks have been carried out on both sides but neither has taken an obvious advantage. I had hoped with the coming of cooler weather the canines will come out of the dog days of summer and do something but so far its not happening.
I fear the stalemate will continue and my boredom with the situation will lead to drastic measures being taken. But for the time being I am simply enjoying some time off and having no political prisoners to have to manage is quite enjoyable. I think I will have to incarcerate one of the canines soon just to give the security/death squad troops something to do but we will deal with that in its time. Bored security/deathsquad troops is not a good thing, right now I have the different squads reporting on each other just to keep them busy.
So I think I will close this report on this note. Remember..I have crazy bored security/deathsquad troops and I'm not afraid to use em. So please for the sake of the monitors in this society speak clearly while your plotting. I mean mumbling is just rude and it gives the monitors a little too much leeway in reporting what you say and trust me you don't want them getting creative. Till next time remember We know what your up to........ and we wont tell if the check is big enough.
(Editors Note: This is the last of the historical record. I am not certain but I think I may be able to convince the Beloved Patriarch\Revered Leader\ President for Life to send me more updates as I understand there have been some changes to the workers paradise since these were written. You may have noticed a change in title for the author He informs me the addition was "forced" upon him by the insistence of his loving subjects...err fellow citizens. We will see if I can get him to give us any more updates in the future.)

OK ENOUGH OF THAT........
Lets just say SSDF this week and move on. I'm sure you all have something much more important to do than read this issue of the reports from the workers paradise and say to yourselves " Self, this looks the same as the last report." So in the interest of brevity which a far better writer than myself has already pointed out, "is the soul of wit". I will leave you gentle reader with this thought...... Tune in next week when you can hear the Feline say......
