The Best Buy repairman had come several times to fix the woman's television. But still on Friday he could not get it to work. So, officials say, the woman pulled out a .38-caliber handgun loaded with hollow-point rounds and told him: "You're not leaving until the TV is fixed."

Marlene Anne Bagnall, 44, of 1523 Davenport Drive was later arrested on charges of aggravated assault and false imprisonment.

Bagnall's husband told a sheriff's deputy she was diagnosed with a mental disorder for which she takes medication. She left the county jail early Saturday on $10,000 bail.

If you think you see weird stuff at your job, trying being a tech at your local computer store. What exactly do you tell someone who brings you a PC with bullet holes in it asking you to fix it? Thanks go out to Danny Weaver for the picture.

Guns don't kill computers, people do?

I've not had the urge to shoot my PC before but I have beaten the keyboard up a few times and a time or two I have have considered throwing the box itself against a wall.

I did Kick my computer up when I was pissed at it maybe thats why nothing on it works lol...BTW that lady is crazy but you gotta laugh

[starjax]

can't say I've had a customer bring one to me like that. considering we were the last computer place before hickville I think we were lucky. Now the guys I used to work with were gun nuts. we have taken a few out to the range and used them for target practice.

I even saw one of them use his tanto (the real thing, a jap. short sword) and carve one up really good with it. If you remember those ibm 350 pc's.... they have a steel support bar through the middle of the case. strong enough to deflect the tanto and send him to the hospital to have stitches when his hand slipped on the blade.....

needless to say a complete abscence of common sense occured at that time... lol.
