    This is so funny to read you have to wonder if it is true.

    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.

    Yep, more of the same is the answer to his problem.

    If this is real it's a Stella Award.

    I hope that the judge not only laughs this nonsense out of court, but also penalizes the guy in some way for filing a frivolous suit, and hits him with a bill for the 4 years of cable he stole on top of that...subject to criminal penalties.
