It's time for him to bend over - http://www.bewarehomeandgarden.com/

I'd appreciate it if you can pass this to other boards that your on. I really want to spread the word here! Alot of the New England sites are going to be getting this info along with some of the local media. It's time for him to pay the piper... one way or another!

Will do

Don't forget Uncle Marc's "Tip of the day"

Avoid Quest Racing in Worcester Mass unless you enjoy a similar ******* that Uncle Tom took

I almost had to clean my monitor off after reading that

Hi Matt: I printed the Final Notice form and sent it to him in a Christmas card. Today was "D Day". He didn't pay me so the website went live and they will be handling the collections. Hopefully they are ruthless!

It would be nice but I'm not planning on it. I sent this info to channels 6, 10 and 12 plus it will goto other media tonight. I'd like someone to pick up the story.

I've received e-mail from people that said they are going to "call him for an estimate", sign him up for gay ****, hate mail ect... I won't condone this but... if it makes you happy then it will make me happy too

It's on most of the f-body, GTO and Corvette sites. Just go for anything If your on sites that have to do with guns, fishing, ince skaing, gardening, ATVs, home entertainment, hunting ect... Doesn't have to be New England specific sites. Actually, ice skating sites would be great because his wife does that!

Thanks for the advice!

I'm actually enjoying this a little. Just scored another e-mail address for him -

jonnie_busy@yahoo.com

I replied to one of the ads that he has posted on Craigslist -

http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-...d710%2d3850%22

Of course, that was done under a different e-mail account. I told him that I had some rooms that needed to be painted and asked if he was interested. He replied yes and asked if I have a contact number. I'm so tempted to reply with something like "Hey, I just found a website that lists your company and says that you screwed the guy".

Anyone else want to e-mail him through Craigslist?

Be careful, don't be guilty of "harassment". Have fun, but don't leave a trace....why give the guy any means to counter with anything.

I've been told that I should be fine as long as I keep the info true to what happened.
