In Bristow, Virginia a seventy five year old woman named Mona Shaw ‘stuck it to the man’… with a hammer.

Mona Shaw was attempting to have Comcast’s new “Triple play” (Phone, internet and cable) service installed in her home, to no avail. She waited several days only to recieve incomplete service which eventually left her without phone, internet or cable of any kind.

After waiting in an office for a manger for two hours before being informed that he had left for the day, Mona went home. She returned the next day, entered the comcast office and smashed the keyboard, monitor and a phone with the hammer she had brought before being restrained and indicted for “disorderly conduct”, or what comcast calls “innapropriate action”.

Shaw is being hailed as a hero by many in the area, but she claims not to perceive her behavior in this way. She says, “I just had a hissy fit…I figured, ‘Hey, my telephone is screwed up, (now) so is yours.”
