All phone companies are like that, but especially Telus. They think they have some monopoly on phones or something. I also like how they try to back charge you on "services" you don't use like enchanced 911 service. They back charged my sister 50 cents for every month she owned her phone. She wanted to get rid of her phone but they would charge her a 20 dollar penalty for every month she still had on her 3 year contract. It ended up being cheaper if she just kept her phone and paid the back charges. Damn Telus!

Telus is a pretty rediculous company. after I lost my phone, I didn't worry about canceling it because it is pay as you go. I could still check my messages on it, and one day there were two drunken rambling messages by nobody I knew. so I figured I should go to the telus store here in the mall and cancel it. After they tried to sell me a new phone, they listened to me. They needed to check my ID to tell me that someone was indeed using my phone. she then wrote a # onto a sticky note and told me that I would have to call that # to disconect my phone. they will trust a voice over the phone, but not me in person to disconect myself from their system. still not sure why they even have a telus store anymore.

10 Things I Hate About Commandments

Well do something man, there not going to wait for you forever. Life doesn't wait for you.

naw, she's hella cute, yes; but I've got my sights set elsewhere at the moment.

Tay ask that chick out already. Or you'll end up like me, stuck in limbo/purgatory, and confused at hell at what to do.

Just do it man, take a chance.

One more over-the-top nerdy link: Girlfriend 6.0 vs. Wife 1.0 Comparative Trial

As if I need more reasons to buy the new Macbook, they continue to pour in like manna fr... forget it, I'm not using that analogy. I refuse.

In any case, the thing with these computers is that the motion sensor for the hard drive (to stop it in case of a sudden fall) is available to the OS (and hence, to user-written software). This allows novel programs such as the MacSaber (which, of course, makes the lightsaber whoosh sound when you swing your computer) to be written.

For people like me that like multiple desktops, though, it allows cool stuff like this.

I have randomly discovered two new things to love today:

1. corn dogs smothered in nacho cheese and garlic mayonnaise; it's like poutine but possibly even better (and probably about as healthy)

2. the girl at the cash register/front desk of the Londonderry Recreational Centre who had the cute navy-blue with tiny white-dots outfit and a matching navy-blue headband with tiny white stripes which was actually a man's TIE!!! Holy fuck that is cute. You have no idea. It's like if-you-tell-me-to-rip-my-penis-off-with-my-own-bare-hands-and-fuck-myself-with-razorblades-in-the-resulting-wound-I-will-stop-everything-right-at-that-moment-and-do-it-just-because-you-asked-me-to cute. There just isn't words for it.
