Thread: Up in SF, on modem and iMac. Pity me.

    Argh, here I am, getting disconnected every 2-5 minutes, using the original "bondi blue" iMac resplended with the original "urinal puck" mouse. I'm dying here folks. Good news is though, I'll be back in LA on a P3 and DSL tomorrow night, so you can bet your quickly cooling off credit card that there will be more deals to come.

    What can I say about my trip? Hmm.

    EVER TRY TO GET ANY WORK DONE ON AN IMAC WITH 32MB OF RAM?!?!?!?!

    For anyone who thinks LA traffic is bad, go sit on the i80 near rush hour.

    Mission Cliffs is UNBELIEVABLE. I've never seen a sports climbing gym with a 50' high wall. Incredible.

    Anyone miss me?

    I set off about 6 car alarms at LAX with my exhaust system. I think it's time to get that replaced.

    Stuff in San Francisco is about 40-60% more expensive than in LA.

    6 cans of Pepsi makes me want to wizz.

    When it's 35 degrees, don't hop out of bed and step directly onto tile.

    I wonder if I have any email in my inbox from the last week.

    Ricki Lake is TRULY boring. Where do they dig up those guests?

    Our navigation buttons don't show up in IE on a Mac, but do in Nutscrape. Go figure.

    I've seen a total of 5 billboards up here with iMacs and the caption "The Internet Expressway". Speachless. Truly.

    Do not try to swallow anything larger than a tangerine. Furby's are too large, for example.

    When you're at the skylounge on the 39th floor of the Hilton, "company expense" is a beautiful phrase. Brings a tear to my eye.

    Dang it, was just disconnected again, due to "inactivity". Yep, all 3.5 minutes of inactivity. Come on, even AOL isn't that stingy.

    I wonder if I can eat a whole gallon tub of chocolate expresso swirl icecream. Hmm. One way to find out.

    After such a terrible time you deserve to have something to look forward to upon returning home. No not your fiancee but these delicious brownies I have made especially for you! Please enjoy them. If you feel like sharing them with BBS members please do so. Maybe this can be the next contest which was a brilliant idea.

    : eek: An iMAC? You're kidding, right? I pity you, you deserve more than just brownies, you deserve brownies, and a day of posting deals. I think i'm going through withdrawls!!! And by the way, everycd has stopped using the 1-800-EVERYCD number, so how do i cancel? I have tried sending multiple emails, but they won't respond. If you have any solution to this problem, please email me at [email protected]

    "I'll tell you Apex has his priorities messed up," said sbp as he gave a <font size=3>huge</font> <font color=brown>brownie</font> to Bloodymess after checking with Bloodymess's mommy. "As soon as Apex got home he rushed over to his fiancee's house instead of opening my <font size=3>BIG</font> box full of delicious <font color=brown>brownies</font> that I slaved over a hot stove to make. That's the last time I make Apex any <font color=brown>brownies</font>. I feel so... so unappreciated." <IMG src="http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Chip/7806/002.gif" alt="SOB">

    DARTH_MAUL and Leon <u>will get any <font color=brown>brownies</font> and anything else I make in the future!</u> They will at least acknowledge and be appreciative of me and my brownies unlike Apex.

    By the way that brown stain on my nose is really chocolate!

    Ya, I can see some green leaves baked into the brownies. Everybody who ate them in February must have had a fun time.
