For the last three days, when I try to go to www.foxnews.com I get a web page saying "This Wiki is not available". Is anyone else living in CR having this problem?

Weird. I just moved into a new apartment a few days ago and it just started happening then. The internet provided here is super slow, so I went by Amnet yesterday to sign up for my own service. They are supposed to be coming today. I hope that fixes the problem.

I've overcome two major hurdles. I'm living without air conditioning and now I'm living without hot water.

Point of clarification - I do have a "suicide shower", which is a heating element attached to the nozzle of your shower head. It delivers lukewarm water, which is one helluva lot better than cold water, but a far cry from hot water. Still, better than nothing. So no worries, no shrinkage :lol:

Here is a little trick that works sometimes with older suicide showers. Turn the water down a bit. The less water going through the hotter it will get.. Also, play around with the settings. It's been a while since I had one so good luck.

Took me a few days to figure that out. I can get a trickle of really hot water, or a stronger stream of lukewarm water.

I'm damned careful not to touch that thing while I'm showering. I had them move it up about two feet before I moved in since it was almost touching my head.

Nope. I got my own package from Amnet, and it's on par with what I had with Uverse in the USA. Except it goes out more often, but not that often.

You have not missed much. But I should not say that.

Na, not much . Just the jobs report showing that endless unemployment checks do not encourage people to look for and accept a job :idea:

Keep drinking the Kool Aid or Pouring it.
