The Advantages Of Not Being on ICQ (IMing)

I miss my fast internet connection, but I have noticed just today, that

being not on ICQ at the moment (since it would be too expensive!), has one advantage; No more weird people, at least at the moment. I seem to be a magnet for Chinese and Egypts on ICQ 🙁 .

It wasn’t be that bad, if it wouldn’t always be the same schematic;

“Hi! Can we be friends?”

and:

“Can you teach me English?”

Plus Egypts mostly end up this way:

– “What’s your name?”

me: “Joerg”

– “Oh, I love girls!”

me: “Ahem! Joerg is a male name and if you were looking up my ICQ User Details you would have noticed that.

Then those nice questions like:

“Do you speak Chinese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Arabic, Romanian, French, Portuguese?” And I say NOOOOOOOOOOO, god damn!

I really don’t miss those weird people from ICQ 😛 But I miss my normal nice people and friends. 🙁

(includes real life friends who use ICQ and ex-classmates).

I hope next week, cable internet rockz my PC! Wish me luck!

Anybody who wants to express his sincere condolences about my lost internet connection (read here for more info about that sad event 🙁 ) may please send them to my email address!

Holy Crap Am I stupid!

Today in the morning, I spent 3 hours (no joke!) to connect all devices of my PC plus TV, VCR, stereo (and still 2 computers yet to connect!) and [b]holy crap[/b] I forgot how to connect my stero to my sound card (into which jack!) I have noticed, I have used a different one than in past and the quality is [b]amazingly better![/b] Bite my ass, I did a computer education with CCI graduation and still, I missed that fact, arghhh!

Well, doesn’t matter, the sound quality is amazing now! 😀

Back On A Bad Line

Hi! After 7 days no entry, I am back on the net, but not on ICQ yet!

Well, I have got my PC running and a temporary dial-up modem connection. Very slow, way too slow! And some people sent me emails with over 500 kb attachments!

I needed over 5 minutes till all my emails were fetched!

Last Monday, 2 technicans from the cable company were here, checking the cable box in the cellar. This house will get a new one, and a new 3-way

receptacle (cable TV, cable radio and cable modem). But I won’t connect my home phone to it, because the cable provider has completely over-expensive phone

rates.

So, I sticked with the main (ex-monopoly) phone company, which supports the use of CallByCall providers for cheaper phoning.

The cable company said, I should get internet next week (at least a date when the cable box in the cellar will get replaced with a cable internet enabled

one).
