meow...

Tom's internet is still down. Apparently, their new ISP is completely inept and can't figure out why the hell it won't work. So he's still offline even though the modem is all hooked up. And he's rather depressed about it... *sighs sadly* It breaks my heart... T_T I wish I could help him...

For Tom, if you read this later:

modem: from mo(dulator) + dem(odulator)

A device for transmitting usually digital data over telephone wires by modulating the data into an audio signal to send it and demodulating an audio signal into data to receive it.

So, I guess technically your dad is right, but it's still called a DSL modem.

Hm, help?

Can anybody suggest a nice font that looks like scribbly handwriting? Kinda like the one on the splash-art of restrictedsection.org? Like that, maybe even the same since it looks nifty for titles and all, but also something that you can use in an actual text, i.e. something you can read well for a while. It should look like old handwriting, like people used to write their letters and journal entries. Help would be appreciated a lot!

Funny joke

Sabby just sent me this funny joke:

One of the funniest "most-embarrassing-moment" stories I've come upon in a long time was about a lady who picked up several items at a discount store. When she finally got up to the checker, she learned that one of her items had no price tag. Imagine her embarrassment when the checker got on the intercom and boomed out for all the store to hear: "Price check on lane thirteen, Tampax, supersize."

That was bad enough, but somebody at the rear of the store apparently misunderstood the word "Tampax" for "Thumbtacks."

In a business-like tone, a voice boomed back over the intercom: "Do you want the kind you push in with your thumb or the kind you pound in with a hammer?"
