damn leroy!
this one is for you all to comment on! please, please, please tell me what you all think of this insanity! come on now, leroy.....Leroy Greer said in a lawsuit filed this week in a federal court in Texas that he bought flowers for his girlfriend through 1-800-Flowers. He asked to keep his purchase private.
Greer said he was referred to the company's privacy policy, which states that customers can ask 1-800-Flowers not to share personal information with "third parties."
But, the lawsuit says, 1-800-Flowers sent a thank-you note to his house and his wife saw it. When she called the company, 1-800-Flowers faxed her a copy of the receipt from Greer's secret purchase.
The receipt revealed that Greer had sent another woman a dozen long-stemmed red roses, along with a note that read, "Just wanted to say that I love you and you mean the world to me!" according to court documents.
The couple was already going through what Greer's attorney described as an amicable divorce.
After learning of the affair, Greer's wife asked for a $300,000 divorce settlement in addition to child support, said Kennitra Foote, Greer's attorney.
"That thank-you note is going to cost him money," Foote said.
Greer is asking for $1 million for breach of contract and deceptive trade practices.
"This is not a moral issue," Foote said. "The issue is, is 1-800-Flowers in the business of causing divorce or are they in the business of sending flowers and sticking to their privacy policy?"
A 1-800-Flowers spokesman said the company does not comment on pending litigation. In a statement, spokesman Steven Jarmon said, "We take all matters relating to our customers seriously; however, we are not responsible for an individual's personal conduct." source - aol news.

Dang, I just posted this....a day late. lol I wish I had just checked here and just pointed folks this way.
Anyway, Leroy is an idiot! First of all, his wife is not a "third party". I don't care whether they were "getting" a divorce or not. The reason why he was trying so hard to keep is secret is because he knew he was wrong. What an idiot!!! 1-800-FLOWERS should sue him for wasting their time!
Dude is a joke. He should just pick up his face and move on.
Let me get this straight: the lawyer is charging that the flower distributor is responsible for this fumb duck's divorce...even though he and his wife were already negotiating an "amicable divorce." I want to laugh, but I'm afraid that 1-800-FLOWERS will settle just to end the public spectacle. Wow.
How's life, DC? Are you posting any new podcasts soon?
It's a case of "don't shoot the messenger"...shoot the idiot who thought he would get away with this mess instead.
He screwed up, and as usual with idiots, he wants to put the blame on someone else other than accepting his own fault.
