Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers.
So why did I do it? I could offer you a million answers, all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person, but that's going to change. I'm going to change. This is the last of that sort of thing. I'm cleaning up and I'm moving on, going straight and choosing life. I'm looking forward to it already. I'm going to be just like you. The job, the family, the fucking big television, the washing machine, the car, the compact disc and electrical tin opener, good health, low cholesterol, dental insurance, mortgage, starter home, leisurewear, luggage, three-piece suite, DIY, game shows, junk food, children, walks in the park, nine to five, good at golf, washing the car, choice of sweaters, family Christmas, indexed pension, tax exemption, clearing the gutters, getting by, looking ahead, to the day you die.
Maybe they should take the money they make on all of these XP sales in the campus bookstore and re-direct the possitive cash flow to IM training. How about a course on inter-campus firewalls? No...that would be too easy...let's just make every student, who already are on a tiny budget, spend more money for something that they don't need or want.

Umm...I'm not sure what 'Canada' you live in but in the Canada I live in you max out at $413 per pay period.....max. It doesn't matter what salary you were making before.
This is old news to us in Ontario, Canada. Both Rogers and Sympatico are implementing what they call a Bandwidth and Usage Tax. If you go over a certain amount you will 'fined'.
I understand that some people are using ALL of their bandwidth ALL of the time but why should the casual user have to suffer for their useage habbits?
I'm sorry guys but I just could not bring myself to buying one of these iMac ripoffs. Compaq's are bad enough without trying to copy an iMac......
I'll stick with white boxes.....

This was a 2 phase discovery:
:)
Phase 1 - Invent a sport where a piece of equipment that, at times, travels towards your face at 160 km/hour and weighs only 170 grams.
Phase 2 - Invent a way to grow teeth back due to resulting injury from Phase 1
It's a Canadian make-work program
All hail Big Beaver.
Gettin' beat down by the Canadians :)

Perfect example of uneducated IM staff. Hey..I hear they're pushing to make Windows 3.1 the new campus standard. Someone told them it's secure ;)
