    Eesh. I have such a love-hate relationship with Apple. Steve Jobs lives round the block and goes jogging outside my parent-in-laws' house, a fact that I have mercilessly exploited when dealing with Apple customer service.

    This is an amazing cautionary quote that I hope many, many people will ponder.


    AT&T has decided to charge people who use an amazing use of bandwith. It is supply and demand, and perfectly within their right. Also, it is amazingly simple why a company would lock out competition when it comes to cell service. It is a business decision that may be bad for the Industry years down the road, but right now it is the equivelant of what is better, Xbox or Play Station.


    Companies need to make money, right? That is why they will change the systems OP procedures, change things around; am I correct? It is the same reason why Google has entered the phone business, why WoW went after Everquest. It is going to be interesting to see which one ends up like the Beta Max that I use as a coaster.

    Oh yeah. I'm pretty merciless with customer service stuff. One time a watch company were a month late fixing my watch and I got it fixed for free, plus a very nice girls' watch and a boy's watch which I gave away as student prizes.

    No you don't Skirata. One time in Class Mr. Boleslav was teaching about Rhomboids and other gemoteric freaks when a kid sneezed and Boleslav threw him out of the class for spreading Sars.

    then he forced the children to wear bags on their heads.

    That scenario has potential to actually be funny.

    I never knew you had such a dark side.
    Reality scripted TV.
    Chasing fifteen minutes of fame.
    Fight over fuel.
    Violence in school.
    The youth are as confused as I am.

    I am glad that Sigilstone is around to give his feel good magic biscuits to people who need a happy pick up.
