Too Wild for me

30 January 2007 at 1:39 pm » Comments (0)

My superb ISP, WildIT has done it again and that’s the last straw.
For a period of 6 months, this small ISP company introduced changes to cover their “mistakes”. This week I received a notice from them and this time it grabbed me by the balls.
Before that, let’s look at the chronology of our frustration buildup:

March 2006 – ADSL line [...]



Account Suspended

Found out this morning that my web hosting account was suspended for no apparent reason. I lodged a support ticket and almost instantenously received a reply stating that my account has been reactivated. A couple of minutes later another email came through with an apology from the staff. Excuse: they accidentally suspended my account. Lost my [...]

The second batch of dinner was at Limor’s International, a family restaurant where they serve you one of the seven sins: gluttony. This time it’s for the apartment gang (Sonia and George) and a couple of bums (Oliver and Chan).
Being a first timer to the place, I found out the restaurant was popular and customers usually came [...]

Summer + Power outage + Air con ban

Yesterday the summer hit us with a 36 degrees heat. As a bonus, good old Victoria threw us a power outage and an air conditioner ban
Around 4pm, I received a call from George informing me that the whole Southbank went black. Now I wondered how the heck am I going to get home now.

A friend of mine sent this to my GMail and I can’t help laughing non stop for the next 5 minutes. I was a fan of Steven Seagal and I’ve heard of many jokes/critics/parody about him but this one really takes the cake.

To begin the next quarter of a century cycle, I booked the evening by going out dinner with the first batch of my B’Day celebration. The gang is from my sister’s whom she met, worked and stayed with once. Kimchi Grandma we went and a feast I spent. Ish, doesn’t rhyme that well.
And in return, [...]
