I am going through WoW withdrawl, most of you have no idea what this is.
But it is painful, it has been weeks, BUT...

(evil laugh)

I'll leave you with a picture from the archives...

until tomorow.

Thanks Paul!

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.

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.

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!

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.
