I received 4 calls in one fucking day from these assholes. They are really quick to hang up too, so I don't even get to fuck with them like I like to. So, if you are reading this posting and have some spare time on your hands, why not call them?

They've got a nice mail box system that I explored for a few seconds. Mailbox numbers seem to be four digits, and there's a directory that you can punch in the name of the person who's mailbox you are looking for. Their "do not call" list seems to be a sham, so I didn't touch it.

It would be a just punishment if these people all personally received various STDs.

I will also note that the previous math problem of the week

x(x+1)(x+2)(x+3)+1 == (x^2+3x+6)^2

Yeah, I kick ass. The next POW is pissing me off though.

X is a 5 digit number.
When X has a one after it, it is three times as much as when x has a one before it.
What is X?

So I wrote a quick proggy to test for this, and it didn't find shit. Then Chad mentioned that it could be a binary number. After a quick test, no it couldn't. What about hex? I dunno. I'm trying that out now. I'll report back later.
