Well before it's to late, it was nice meeting you all on this forum, perhaps we can get out the pigeons to send request for help on OSX issues. Turn off our computers for 3 months to save power because the power companies told us we can only use so much and wait for the pigeons to return with a reply.

Its about time the government took the Internet off the companies and people who built it, and gave all control of it to AT&T. One of my staff sent me an Internet on Friday that didn't reach me until today! The Internet is, after all, just a system of tubes. Google Earth and YouTube are blocking my tubes so it takes longer for my Internets to come through.

*sigh*

OK, I know I shouldn't even say this or even be thinking it....


....but she's got major cameltoe in that video! (Sorry, I couldn't resist....yes, I'm sick...you should know that by now... )

In all seriousness, it is something not to take lightly.
