I think when you trust someone, and they take from you, it's more like rape than theft.

My family has been to court several times over theft in the past. One thing we did was invent the home choose concept of choosing carpets in europe. The slogun we used was copied by a rival and we won in court.

More recently, a man I thought of as a mentor and friend, promised to turn my hobby of writing screenplays into a reality. To cut a long story short, he stole my concept, my idea, re-wrote my screenplay, and shot the movie without giving me a cent.

These things are sent to try us . . .
eww thats bad ........i know it happens all the time, but hell whats wrong with asking, people can ask others if they may use something, and if you use it change it all, once in a while i need to nag about it ....lol see it as "comming out stress" for the last hard working weeks of the year 2004! Still with the "bugs"and clusterfucks in networking, it was a good 2004! Will go for a even better 2005 and "copieng (i hate that word) bugs" wont stop me from that !
