Ah, he's on the bike. That explains it. Putting along, he could be typing
and wardriving for access. Maybe his laptop doesn't do wireless. or he
hasn't found the button.

He's probably in jail, somewhere. And he's not allowed library
privileges because he was caught abusing some of the inmates.

They were caught abusing him, more like it, and he refused to press charges.

is making a bank deposit for me in the morning. It's just to save me a trip

Now lemme get this straight, you don't have a personal bank in JH.
Everybody has to have a local personal bank to conduct basic local
business and your mommy is conducting your business for you? You ARE
retarded. If she can conduct business by phone, why can't you?

Perhaps because it's HER money?

BTW, I had a little adventure attempting to pay the phone bill by
phone last night. We haven't been using the land line at all and we
are planning to drop it in favor of cell phones (we have 6 for a
family of five and my wife's two businesses) and cable connections.
Well, if you ignore the phone company long enough, they will
disconnect the line for you, so I tried to get reinstated just long
enough to pay up and cancel. First, I called the Customer Service
number on the bill - Business office is closed until Monday, but if I
stayed on the line, I could attempt to pay by phone. When I finally
got through the security check (code number on the bill, zip code and
last 4 digits of SSAN), the phone told me I owed "Zero dollars" and
refused to accept a payment. So I tried the on-line method at
att.com. I had no record of an account with them, so I tried to set
one up. Apparently we already have one tied to the phone number, so
it asked me for my login name and password. Not knowing what it might
be, I tried the login and password I usually use on throwaway accounts
(like newspapers that require a login to search their archives). That
didn't work, but there was a "forgot your password?" tab, so I clicked
that. It returned with a login name that I have never used and a
password hint that made me realize I had created the account when our
phone company was still called SBC. OK, finally logged in, they even
knew my bank account number already and accepted my payment as
requested. However, they still had the final word - "Service may not
be restored for 2 business days".

So now I have to email anyone who might wnat to call me and tell them
to use my cell phone number from now on.

IBM just had a huge scientific breakthrough in making data switches at
the molecular level. It will probably revolutionize the
industry...and is (As yet) much more feasible than "quantum
computing". IBM is probably good stock to hold on to right now.

Jeff you need to admit, you may have chosen the ski now / ski forever
lifestyle...That's fine...But it does come at a tremendous cost. One
in which virtually all people your age reject. That's because they
have closer ties to family, jobs...and other things in life which give
them jsut as much (if not more) fulfillment and joy.

It's Usenet, Jeff. Hell, it's the internet. Take what you want,
leave what you want.

Unfortunately one stock does not a portfolio make. With this
character, it's just name-dropping on a corporate level. IBM has had
its share of major miscues particularly in the late eighties which
required significant restructuring. That is why, effective
diversification is necessary. Proof - look at all those poor people
that had their retirement savings tied up in the Enron debacle. Ya
never know. However, it appears that Mr. Doofus again avoided
answering the question put to him. Big surprise.

What's the matter? You seem to be in a pensive mood. Very subdued.
100% correct but subdued.
