Hat Trick


I just received a letter from Hotels.com saying that a laptop was stolen and my personal "may" have been on said laptop.

I mentioned before that the VA lost my information as well and a few months ago The Boston Globe decided that in lieu of any real news stories, they would just print customer's credit card numbers and send them out with the paper. The Globe did issue an apology, but they blamed it all on the Republicans.

Here's the rub, I have been out of the Army for almost 15 years. I only used Hotels.com once and I only get the Globe on Sunday. I am going to start demanding better comps from these companies for losing my info. So far all I keep getting are passwords to get free credit reports which need a UN interpreter to understand.

I should be entitled to several free hotel stays, free papers for a year and an M1A2 Bradley Fighting Vehicle. An Abram's Tank just would not fit in my parking space.
