Hello

Yes,the last 2 days I couldn't connect to the internet and I was all confused and after all the stress I finally got a family friend around to look at my router thing,the net gear thing-y-ma-fuck and now it's all working again like as if Merlin has popped by and cast a spell or some shit.

Apparently I thought it was working but it wasn't even plugged in to the p c but I hadn't remembered to put it in ages ago anyway and was going through an AOL PPOE set up which some other wizard set up before when I had a glitch but the real Merlin said that was a load of old bollocks but anyway he tapped around and spoke to the AOL man on the phone to get new passwords and stuff and I sat there looking like I was paying attention.

so basically I am and will never consider myself a proper nerd even though I like the Revenge of the Nerds film and DEVO.(y)

Not everyone needs to know this stuff. I'm sure you know stuff that most nerds don't know.

I get paid my 40hrs to help people who don't know this stuff, and at times I have to remind myself that they are or could be WAY smarter than I am about other stuff. Different people have different skill sets.

I myself would love to be able to breakdance, but there's no way I'd figure it out, so I stick to what I'm good at.

that's the truth ruth.I suppose if I had opted to learn this stuff a few years ago I would be the same.
