Moved into an RV park in GA, I will order cable internet, but I have found a wireless hit working. Not mine.

So do I pay/get my own or suck off this?

Second issue: cracked lip- won't heal- what do I use? not chapstick or blistex, not working.

3rd issue: here with friend in a 5 day trip- she's miserable cuz fighting with her love and drama/fighting is their thing?

So- how's everyone else doing?

Well as for the internet access just suck off it as long as you can. Then order if it ever cuts out. spend the money on your lady instead

Oh and I'm just fine tonight. Was going to see a local band tonight then decided to stay home do the laundry and relax

vaseline on a stubborn lip works well for me, or wrap your lips around your lady friend...

You can, it's just not an automatic option any more for some reason. You can still type it in manually. The vB Code List: http://forums.macnn.com/misc.php?do=bbcode#url

I had this freeloading bum on my network but now I check it regularly and kick anyone off that isn't supposed to have access.

I f**king hate people like yourself. I work very hard and pay for all my services why should I have to support your thieving ass. Get a better job and stop leeching off others. Bum!

If you don't want anyone using your stuff then protect it. You have locks on the doors of your house for pretty much the same reason. Do the same thing with your wireless.

Some people give wireless access away. A friend has a very fast connection and he is using a desktop. But he hooked up a wireless router. Why? So those who want to connect can. He's also the same guy who'll invite anyone in for a beer and a sandwich. Just a nice generous guy.

And don't try the "child porn trail" argument. They know who is downloading that stuff.

Whoa Whoa Whoa. Down boy!

I have a job AND I go to school AND I support a mortgage and my new rent.

I pay for everything incl music ****tard.

I was actually going to talk to people in the park to see if they wanted to share the cost.

So eff off and get over yourself.

Remember- assume- makes an ass out of "u" and an ass out of me"

BTW, it's pretty effing easy to lock your network ****tard.

Don't mind him. Ignorance usually causes people to be iceholes.

I was about to say that. If you don't want to share, then password the network.

Its like leaving your stuff on the street. If you want it all to yourself, then put it in your house.

Kudos to that guy who shares his connection and gives free beer and sandwiches.

BORROW it. Don't buy it. You can put it back later.

Second issue: cracked lip- won't heal- what do I use? not chapstick or blistex, not working.

Tell your girlfriend to stop punching you in the mouth in your fights. No, seriously, drink more water and use antibiotic ointment that is vaseline-based from your local grocery store or pharmacy. Try not to lick your lips, though.

3rd issue: here with friend in a 5 day trip- she's miserable cuz fighting with her love and drama/fighting is their thing?

Bring her cups of coffee in the morning, breakfast, rub her feet, neck, back, and tell her that she's wonderful...the rest of the time ignore her - works great in my house.



So- how's everyone else doing?

Good! Good luck to you!

Order cable Internet. Enjoy what you're getting for free until the cable is installed and working. Once you have your own, use whatever tools you need to find whose WiFi you're using now and let them know that you found them and that they're unprotected. Offer to help them secure their network so they'll be safer.

All pro, no con, you wind up looking like a good neighbor.

Why would I be so nice to a friend? I don't wanna rub her feet neck and back- I'll just go with the ignore part.
