OK, it's kinda interesting when it starts off, but after 7 pages or so, it gets a little dull... 19 pages is way too much to read through. I need instant gratification!

the funny parts are what resources they're using to track him down. they have 1 member who works as a fraud investigator for credit card company, another guy has access to insurance info, the moron posted his own car on another forum, so they unblocked his plate that he scratched out and they ran him on DMV and got his info, he said that he worked at a bestbuy so they called the store and bb hq asking for him.... it's actually pretty funny stuff if you have the time to wade through the "hi i'm from so and so board" you know, like i did
