    Got a new phone this weekend. Between all the overage and international calls, we were getting hit for about $150 per month on our cell phone bill each month, and that was just for basic phones with basic service. We never went over our minute alotment or texts each month, just got reamed by calls to Canada, and nickel and dimed to death with minute service fees. So we started looking elsewhere and found out we could get top of the line phones and service for about what we were already paying. First thing, i now understand completely why they call them 'crackberry's' The sad thing though is that I still don't get any service in my office. It's like the black hole of mobile service here. I can go 2 or 3 levels underground, in the basement and get a great signal, but not in my office. To make things even better, they have shut off the wi-fi here at work. So i managed to get myself addicted to my blackberry and now facebook, and I can't even check them now. You gotta love poetic justice.
    On a side note, I see I have a fangroup now by all the negative marks on some of my inane posts. Thanks everyone

    It has to do with whether or not your service provider recognizes texts to Canada as domestic or international. If you get the same message when trying to send to multiple people in Canada, that's likely the case. Perhaps there's a different package you can get that would include texts to Canada or within North America for the same price?

    Trolling regional forums is just poor form. You have failed as a troll, but you have succeeded in being a douche. However, your posts have been quite entertaining, so I gave you a +1

    Bangladeshi man beheaded to redden bricks
    A Bangladeshi man was beheaded by labourers who burnt his head in a kiln in the belief this would redden their bricks, police said on Sunday.
    Published: 5:02PM GMT 21 Mar 2010
    Four suspects were arrested for murdering the 26-year-old bricklayer in a remote town in northern Bangladesh on the instructions of the brick-field's owners, said Golam Sarwar Bhuiyan, a local police chief.
    "They said the owners were unhappy as the brick-field was not producing reddish bricks despite enough heating. A fortune teller then suggested that the brick-field needed a human sacrifice," he said.
    Police were searching for the owners and the fortune teller, he added.
    Red bricks are in huge demand in Bangladesh's countryside as the colour is seen as proof the bricks have been baked properly.

    Sorry to hear about the gal stones Marylin
    So, my mom's in town... YAY! Except she brought her friend with her and her friend is SUPER selfish. Last night her friend said "we're going to Olive Garden tomorrow night" and I said "Oh, who's we?" and she said "Oh just me and your mom"... Then last night when they were leaving I asked my mom when she wanted to go shopping today (she wants to buy me a new outfit) and my mom said "in the morning" and her friend said "Well, we want to go for a swim first!!!". You know what? Screw you mom's friend. You can go swimming anytime at pools, I don't get to see my mom very often. If she really wants to go for a swim she can go and my mom and I can go shopping.
    So basically my mom's here this weekend, but it looks like I'm not going to get to see her much.

    If you are a human being as science knows it, you are unable to answer the questions truthfully before April 1. Plain and simple. Unable, as the questions are phrased very specific (did live, not assume to live) and contain a specific date (4-1-2010).
    You can get hit by a bus tomorrow, your husband can have a stroke or heart attack, and something tragic can happen to your son or daughter as well. The fact that people even assume it's easy to predict what happens to the about 300,000,000 US residents within the next 2 weeks is proposterous and proof that people don't take the Census seriously. Hence, there you have it: a huge waste of taxpayers' money.

    That bit is easy enough for the government to interpret. If you put "A-M-E-R-I-C-A-N" for your race, you are either retarded, or a borderline nutjob conservative.
    Make no mistake here,it is conservatives by and large who object to this information being collected about them. Saying that its racist or racial profiling is a red herring. They are just scared that the big bad government is keeping files on them and are going to come take them away for their beliefs (or some other conservative rambling).

    Sometimes you just need to provide more beer.
    If you could have beer in your threads, people would definitely like you more no matter what off-the-mark thing you might say!
