The things to do with those AO-Hell CDs... At least the floppies were formattable and could be used for something useful. Them CDs, and the way they can multiply in one's mail box... Oh, and the lattest container I've seen is like plaster board or something, surrounding the stupid thing.

On, what could be a funny side, someone in my appt complex (when I was getting mail) suggested we all just drop the CDs in AO-Hell's parking lot, and let them pay the trash removal people to clean the CDs up they keep littering our mail boxes with (FYI, where I live in Albuq, there is a local AO-Hell office here in the city...) Would be real funny if someone drove a truck full of AO-Hell CDs up to their door one day, and dumped them all there before they came to work, lol

AOL CD + 9 iron + boredom + free time = FUN.

What ya do is when ya go get yer mail leave the AO Hell CD in the mail box. Next day do the same, and so on. At the end of the week look'n see how many ya have. Or if ya have a large mail box leave them a month.


If ya have a mail slot in yer door, then you're outta luck. They'll just pile up on the floor.
