			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I ordered a server from Dell a few weeks ago. It was accidentally shipped to my coworker Tina in Bremerton. I&#8217;ve been pestering for her to deliver it to me ever since.</p>
<p><span style="color: #663300;">[tinag@talk] That&#8217;s it. You get off my back if you </span><span style="font-style: italic; color: #663300;">ever</span><span style="color: #663300;"> want to see your server.</span></p>
<p>[ralphh@talk] What? Where is it? Is it okay? <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">What have you done?</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #663300;">[tinag@talk] First, to prove that I still have it, here&#8217;s a picture of &#8230; it.</span><br />
<a href="http://ralph.hogaboom.org/images/hostageserver200601.JPG"><img src="http://ralph.hogaboom.org/images/hostageserver200601.JPG" alt="" hspace="10" vspace="10" width="150" align="left" /></a><br />
I actually gasped when I opened the picture of my server, bound and blindfolded.</p>
<p><span style="color: #663300;">[tinag@talk] Second, tomorrow you will receive, in the mail, the power button. The day after, a CD drive. On the third day, you&#8217;ll receive the power cable. And so on. To be perfectly clear: </span><span style="font-style: italic; color: #663300;">if you ever want to see your server in one piece, you will leave me alone starting right now.</span></p>
<p>[ralphh@talk] Listen, Tina, we can reason. I know you&#8217;re hurting inside, deep down. That&#8217;s the only thing that could cause this. But we can work through it. As a team! We can find &#8230;. we can find you some help, some professional help.</p>
<p><span style="color: #663333;">[tinag@talk] Bye for now.</span></p>
<p>[system@talk] User tinag has closed the conversation window.</p>
