I wish...

[HarryW]

you could add music to a thread, I really feel like sharing my mp3 collection with the world

[fallnwrld]

If you wanna share use napster while its still free!

[SteveCRM]

you would have to leave a page open for about 20 minutes though...damn 56K modems!!! How much is the cheapest DSL that won't screw me over by being some fake company?

Good luck that would put you in the lightweight class.

[HarryW]

Hmm, methinks this is more of a stab at Iain than me

I can download a MP3 in like <2minutes..... I get a nice average of 60k

[HarryW]

*Rolls eyes* Any excuse to bring it up again

You know me harry... you know I am going to be bragging about this for another 2 weeks at least....

[HarryW]

Right now, I think my choice of music for this thread would by Metallica - So What (Hope someone knows the song)

[zmerlinz]

You shouyld stop bragging about your connection, some people still have 33k modems, e.g. me

and that is slow, and you make e very jealous


Merlin ¿

that is kind of the point of bragging.....



But I'll try to stop...

damn 33?

I had a 56k, but I didn't figure out how to tweak it to go faster until a week before I got DSL...

it's average was 26.4kbits

[zmerlinz]

damn i get an average download speed of 2.5k aaaggghhh and where i live yu can't get cable and your luky if you can isdn working out here, btw i live in the fens

Merlin ¿

[parksie]

Well, me might get ADSL one day if BT gets their f*****g act together .

[HarryW]

Of course, it would be small of me to brag about my cable connection here in Guildford. Good thing I'm so modest really.

Went down to Sydney and had a demo of cable.....oh boy that rocks. Immediately went for the sign up....then we were told you couldn't install on the central coast yet

*Dennis points finger over to where he thinks australia is and laughs at entire central cost*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Am getting asked if Regan won the election!

I am actually glad these dumb ****ing idiots in florida messed up, because on mad TV last night they had some VERY funny **** on about that...

they said this one couple were so confused they ate their ballot.....

and an Al Gore impersonator kept going on and on about those ballots, he kept saying how confusing they were, and he didn't know whether he would cirlce the name, or scratch the little dot with a penny.. hehehe...

and they had a clinton impersonator asking why they even need a president, he said that he made everything perfect, and if gore or bush came in office, they would just screw it up again.... hehehe


and the funniest part,
this is really true, they had it on the news...

there was this guy, he said
"I was the valedictorian of my high school, I have an IQ of 168, and I don't know who I voted for"


FÜCKING IDIOTS!!!!

how can a man have an IQ that almost matches mine(174 BTW... ) and get confused on a ballot, that has arrows that clearly point to the correct hole...
****, people are so fücking stupid.....

It's because they're Americans Dennis.

*Jehtro punches air with fists, laughing outload, points out the post to others in the office who also laugh out loud*

*L.A Dave scratches his head and asks what the joke is*

*Dennis adjusts his bikini top, and gets ready to reply

[barrk]

You walked right in to that one Dennis. Read before you post. Just a suggestion.

Ahhh, it's not so bad....
at least I have DSL, and well, jethro doesn't... and thats all that matters... if it takes me months, I'll make him jealous yet...

It's because they're Americans Dennis.

I actually agree with you jethro, a majority of the americans are fücking idiots... there is a very small percentage that are smarter than cock roaches...

I am not putting down america, because I love this place, and wouldn't wan't to live anyplace else,with the exception of Germany... but the people over here are sooo damn stupid. I apologize to any americans on this board, but americans and almost anybody who immigrates here, are idiots...

you talk to some people over here, and they just look at you like they are retarded..... it pisses me off sooooo much....

[barrk]

Don't make Jethro too mad. I'm planning on moving to his refugee camp in Australia for any Americans smart enough to realize that we are in HUGE trouble if Bush wins. He promised decent beer. I hope he lives up to his word. So be nice or he won't let any of us in.

at least if bush wins we'll be able to have guns to fight the corrupt military system..........

Actually l use the modems in the office Dennis, 56k running on unix boxes........way quick.........but......not as quick as cable.....damn.

[kedaman]

that goes for any other modem user too and others in general!

I have 10Mbps cable and i don't pay a ****!

if you've got 10Mbps then why do I get faster averaged download speeds than you?

[HarryW]

at least if bush wins we'll be able to have guns to fight the corrupt military system..........

Yeah give all the civilian nutters guns too, so long as every nutter has a gun everything will be much better..

*Harry mutters to himself, and nods at Jethro's posts*

[barrk]

Yep...denniswrenn is scary sometimes isn't he? What's even scarier is that he's just a kid spouting off the rhetoric he hears from the adults around him.

exactly...
in one small town they passed a law that, if you don't have a gun in your house, you get a fine.. hehehehe

Hey.... I know many people, adult, teen, etc.. that beleive the military, well not necesarily the military, but the government is corrupt....

look at this bullshit with the election... gore is being a pain in the ass,
he completely changes his opinions and beleifs to suit himself..
it doesn't matter how much he enforces it if it's against bush, but when the shoe's on the other foot, so is his opinion...

I think they should elect me to be president...

that way, if anybody purposly killed somebody, in cold blood, they would be executed... no exceptions... he took a life, his life will be taken...

and tougher illegal immigrant laws... I am so sick of these people coming into america, taking our jobs(this doesn't apply to me yet), and crowding the road(neither does this) and not even being an american citizen, or even a legal immigrant...


Ok, thats enough talk now... don't want to get too many enemy's....

No system can truly be free of corruption totally. Our political system consist of people...good and bad people both. A good system is set up so checks and balances stop the corruption before it has a chance to spread. We have many checks and balances in our government...many more checks than we have corruption.

well, any corruption is bad corruption...

if the world was going to last for more than 100 years, this would cause USA's downfall, as it did with the roman government, christiandom, and many other systems..

[barrk]

The US has already lasted for over 100 years. Corruption unchecked is a very bad thing. That is one reason why we have a government to ensure that the corruption isn't allowed to spread, that the laws of the constitution are upheld and that no ONE corrupt person or group of corrupt people can inflict their will upon the citizens. That is why it is so important that we let the process work but also watch it to make sure it still works for everyone...not just for a few.

Kathryn now gets off her soap box and goes to have a cigarette.

it doesn't matter how good we are(we as in America)

the romans were the world power for over 600 years, and they fell like a rock!

[barrk]

It could happen to us too...if we let it. We need to be vigilant. We need to pay attention. We need to practice tolerance...even with smart-ass kids. The world is changing and that's not necessarily a bad thing. We need to make sure we are part of the change and don't just go on blindly believing something because our parents, friends, media tells us to. I'm not saying that we won't fall but we can help it evolve into something we all can live with..not just a few people can. We need to participate in the world around us instead of just playing the part of the arrogant american. The Romans fell, in part, because of these reasons. Think...don't just accept.
