Since how long you are using Internet and..

I have been using the internet since the days of the bulliten boards. A server you dialed directly in to with your modem. As far as actual internet usage, I would say since probably around 1991. There were not many websites back then and they were much simpler. You didn't have streaming video and huge flashy graphics, low speed modems and dial up internet connections couldn't handle them. Chat was limited to forums and "IRC" (internet realy chat)clients. Yahoo was just a search engine back then. There was no such thing as instant messaging, or social network sites. My, how things have changed.

Who was your favorite teacher in all of your school years?

Between 1989 and 1991, I had a typing professor that was awesome. Because of her, I improved my typing and keyboarding skills. She rewarded us with chocolate kisses when we did well. I discovered chocolate was a fantastic motivator.

This Job Economy Sucks

I am sorry to hear that you lost your job. It can feel sole destroying to keep applying for jobs and to keep on getting rejection letters. In the early 1990s my country had a bad recession. In 1991 I had a fantastic job in a ship brokers in London and I had bought a nice little cottage in a village one and a half hours away from my job. I had hoped to work there for five years then get a job in a town near my cottage. However I was made redundant. I tried very hard to get another job but it was way too challenging. I had to let my cottage out and go off traveling overseas. I got a working holiday visa for Australia. With my savings I bought an airline ticket. So I traveled for just over one year with £400 a month coming in from renting out my home. I found lots of work in Australia. I worked as a children's nanny and as charity worker dressed up as a koala. If I had stayed at home my...

First time you went...

I was born in a county in the South East of England. I lived near the neighboring county and London so I went out of my county many times when I was a young child. The first trip I did out of my home country was by ferry and train. It was to France when I was a young child. The first time I went on a plane was when I was 14 years old. It was June 1987 and I flew from London to Athens. The first time I went another continent was when I was 18 to 19 years old. I went to Africa and the Caribbean in 1991.

The Hits Just Keep Coming...

Hi Lamb... I can relate to the pain you feel. I lost my mom from a terminal illness. I'm glad you got to see your mom. If you can, try not to focus on what is killing her, but focus that she is still alive and with you. So much time is wasted in anger. We don't think things are supposed to happen to us or our parents. My mom died at 69. I don't think I will live much past that .. I'm on oxygen at night. My oxygen levels get so low I could easily just not wake up any night I go to bed. I try not to focus on this and I just try to enjoy what I have left of my life.I feel bad that cancer is eating your mom up. Cancer has no respect of persons... it doesn't care who it feeds off from. Little children die every day with cancer. It hurts when anyone you love dies or you see them wasting away. If you had visited your mom you might have seen a more gradual change over time, but since you...

Bloody Telemarketers! it should be banned...

It is illegal for telemarketers to call cell phones. you can actually sue in your local small claims court. Go to www.ucan.org for everything you need to know to stop them and even turn the tables and profit from them. Min. $500 you could get from every telemarketer that calls you. And you can file a complaint with the FCC online and they will issue the telemarketers an $11,000 fine. The trick is be nice to them and act interested in whatever they are selling while getting all of their company info. Do some research online about the TCPA Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991

Total eclips of the sun,do you want to see?

If it's gonna be available in our area, I will be delightful to see it. But I have seen one back in 1991 when I was still in my third grade. It was not as strange as I have expected though. The erupting of Mt Pinatubo is more scary

is speilberg the best director

[i]hi harishkowshik:)[/i][b]Steven Allan Spielberg KBE (born December 18, 1946) is an American film director and producer. Spielberg is a three-time Academy Award winner and is the highest grossing filmmaker of all time; his films having made nearly $8 billion internationally. Forbes Magazine places Spielberg's net worth at $3 billion. As of 2006, Premiere listed him as the most powerful and influential figure in the motion picture industry. TIME named him in the '100 Greatest People of the Century'. At the end of the 20th century LIFE named him the most influential person of his generation. In a career that spans almost four decades, Spielberg's films have touched many themes and genres. During the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, three of his films, Jaws, E.T., and Jurassic Park became the highest grossing films for their time. During his early years as a director, his sci-fi and adventure...

Michael Jackson

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009) was America's most beloved recording artist, singer, songwriter, artist, record producer, arranger, dancer, father, choreographer, actor, author, philanthropist, child star, musical prodigy, day care provider, and businessman. Also known as the "King of Pop", Michael began to show an exceptional talent when he was 11, as the youngest member of the successful group, Jackson 5. As a solo artist, he had recorded five of the worlds' best selling albums: Off the Wall (1979), Thriller (1982), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I (1995). There is no disputing the fact that he is the greatest musical artist of all time. He was acquitted of sexual abuse charges in 1993 and again in 2005, hopefully putting an end once and for all to these shameful attempts at character assassination.

Have you ever needed a visa?

Several times, normally without too many problems. Going to India in 1991, I had to get a tourist visa, which took about two days. When I wanted to stay in Thailand beyond the foreseen four weeks (allowed to all tourists) a few years ago, I had to attend the tourist visa extension office in Bangkok. This took a few hours. And on the first occasion when I went to the United States, I needed a visa. This, again, I got in a matter of hours. That said, I have never been anywhere really difficult to get in. I have weighed up going to Myanmar/Burma, but not made it as yet.
