Ahhh Charter

Some of my readers will find this amusing.

Cable TV made a West Bend man addicted to TV, caused his wife to be overweight and his kids to be lazy, he says.

And he’s threatening to sue the cable company.

Timothy Dumouchel of West Bend wants $5,000 or three computers, and a lifetime supply of free Internet service from Charter Communications to settle what he says will be a small claims suit.

Dumouchel blames Charter for his TV addiction, his wife’s 50-pound weight gain and his children’s being “lazy channel surfers,” according to a Fond du Lac police report.

Apparently he called 4 years ago to have his cable cancelled, and they stopped billing him but didn't disconnect his cable. Sounds about par for the course for Charter. The funny part is that he thinks he'd get some sort of better quality Internet service out of them ;)
