AMSTERDAM (AP) — Dutch prosecutors are charging a 42-year-old woman with stalking after she allegedly called her ex-boyfriend 65,000 times in the past year.

The 62-year-old victim from The Hague filed a police complaint in August due to the persistent phone calls. Police arrested the suspected stalker Monday, seizing several cell phones and computers from her home in Rotterdam.

Hague prosecution spokeswoman Nicolette Stoel said Thursday the woman argued to judges at a preliminary hearing she had a relationship with the man and the number of calls she placed to him wasn't excessive. The man denied they had a relationship.

The court ordered her not to contact him again.

    That's an average of 178 times...a day!

    What was so important that she needed to speak to him that many times? Oh, he probably forget to mow the lawn...

    You'd let it go on for 2 days first? Screw that...I'd be pissed after the first day after about 20 calls.

    along the same lines from Uncle John's 4th Bathroom Reader, p. 48

    In 1940, A. Douglas Thompson, a Tennessee paper boy, was delivering his papers when he was attacked and bitten by a neighborhood dog. Thompson had it taken to a pound. It was released to its owner a few days later.

    But the owner of the dog, Gertrude Jamieson, was so upset at Thompson for impounding her pet that she began harassing him with obscene phone calls several times a day. She kept it up - for 43 years. Finally in 1983, at the age of 85, she stopped calling Thompson (who by now was age 59) - but not because she had forgiven him. The only reason she stopped calling was because she had suffered a minor stroke and was confined to a hospital room without a telephone.

    It's not stalking. It's extensive research. Some people are so SENSITIVE.
