at the café again

Free internet rocks. There is a huge mall 6 miles from my apartment. It has a Macy's, which I find strange, being that I grew up in western NY. Anyways, there is a Barnes and Noble of immense proportions. It has a free internet/Starbucks café. How cool, although I am boycotting Starbucks.... overpriced burnt coffee...yum!

Just thought I'd add to Metalpeter's thought . Sony has a ying yang like sign on there cell phones.

And Ladycroft, I would take you up on your tomato offer, but I don't think you want to drive to PA. Thanks anyway.

The one thing I miss about buffalo, is the roadways and driving. People in the Pittsburgh PA area drive like insane people. Nobody drive less than 15 over the speed limit. I almost died yesterday because someone cut me off at 70 in a 50mph work zone. And the roads are confusing down here. Road names take right turns at intersections, and there are 4 different Washington's within 5 miles of each other.

from the free Carnegie library

I can't wait, I have a cable guy coming on tuesday to install coimcast cable and a modem line. I wonder if the service is any better than Adelphia. The rates are just as high. $58 a month. Why are broadband connections so pricey??
Anybody have any thoughts?
It would be so nice if there was a free open wireless network everywhere!
Yes, some jobs would be lost, but there will always be a need for support and help desk people.

my first post from Carnegie PA

The big move is partially over. I can't wait till I have broadband access from my apt.!
I am posting this entry from a café with free wi-fi. At least I can drive 5 minutes away and get access. It is very weird to not be "connected"! This is the first time in 6 years I haven't had access.
Well, I got to go, I have to contact the school and do some more unpacking.

Pictures coming soon!

World of Warcraft Community!!

Yesterday, while playing WoW, a character walked up to me and asked if I would help them out with a quest. I always help if I am not busy myself. But I was on a quest with a group of people.

This character then asked again, and told me that he/she was the child of a different character I had met a day or two earlier. So, I convinced my current group to help this poor loner out. In the end, we all completed our quests and everyone was happy!

Later on that evening, the father of the kid I just helped, logged online just to thank me for helping his kid. How cool is that.

I just thought this was a great example of what (e:strip) is all about. Building a community to help counteract the effects of the computer in todays society.

on a less philosophical note,

My character in WoW is
Llolth

I am on the Skywall server.
send me a message if you want to team up, it would be cool to meet an estrip'r on the online world.

looking for work and WoW

Soon, I will be a job searcher again. It has been a while since I had to go on an interview. After I move to PA on 08.07.05, I will need to look for a job.Lukily, I haven't had to do much interviewing in my life, jobs have just sort of "fallen into my lap." This may seem like a good thing, but now I have little experience to draw on.

Do any of you (e:strip)'rs have ideas of where I can start looking in Pittsburgh, Pa. In reality, I am just looking for someplace to start networking.

I haven't tried to publish from my phone as of yet, but I plan on trying to do so in the next few days. Paul, I will let you know if there seem to be any bugs.

Lastly, here is a screenshot of my character in World of Warcraft.

Poultrygeist and World of Warcraft

I wanted to go to the open auditions, but sadly I am moving to Carnegie, PA on August 7. Since the filming doesn't start till later in the month, I felt it a waste of my time. Time is so precious!
I have been playing World of Warcraft lately, that game is so addictive.

Are any (e:strip)'rs currently playing World of Warcraft???
If so, maybe we can have a virtual meeting. Let me know what server you are on and your character's name, and I will send ytou m y info!

Sorry, this post is just my random thoughts at the time....

I have a new computer at work, and I decided that the new mac keyboards are harder to type on than the older black, G4 keyboards. I don't like the angle:(

Back to moving,
I am going to miss Buffalo and the friends I have here, but it is time to move. AIP here I come. I plan on posting often, to give you buffalonians a taste of Pittsburgh!

too long it has been

i haven't posted in a couple weeks. Guess between work and my best friend being home from Las vegas, my computer has been put on the back burner. That's ok, it's good to get away from computers once in a while.

I have been busy though, I put new tires and rims on my truck, and I also had new gears, gaskits, bearings, and u-joints installed. $2400! Crazy huh?
Hopefully that will be tha last of the upgrades for a while.

I had a great couple of weeks !! Steve was home, and I took a monday off and we spent it at Silver Lake. We went tubing and water skiing with his family's 1970 boat. It was fun though, I couldn't get up on the water skis!
Her is a picture I took as the sun was going down.

On july 2nd, My friends and I went to the Buffalo Hills village to see Charlie Daniels and His Band. It was crazy! I haven't seen so many lawnchairs in one place before. The proceeds all go to charity, and they have the largest fireworks show this side of the Mississippi!! $15 a ticket, and they sold 17,000!
Hereare some shots of the concert and the fireworks.

Lately I have been playind World of Warcraft! The game is really fun. If you don't know, the game is played online on the Warcraft servers and with other players. It is a fantasy rpg with the option of group quests!

I plan on uploading some screenshots, because the game creators built in a screenshot function. Genius!!!

I have to go to bed, it's almost 11pm and I am driving to Pittsburgh PA at 4am to go apartment searching. Plus I am tired from my 24th birthday yesterday!
Hope everyone has a safe weekend.
