Anyhow, it got worse. They blocked most of the sites people go on, including huffington post, explosm, many news sites, and other sites that we like to spend our time on since we are so bored. Even ESPN was blocked for a time before an angry mob demanded why ESPN was blocked.
The tech guy said that the admins are debating blocking everything except for email programs. That includes facebook.
This is getting rediculous, I cant stay here anymore.
Its a miracle the Org and Twcenter arent blocked, but many posts are blocked so thats really annoying. Plus the backroom is blocked, have to access this thread by linking to it from the subscription email I get.
Sorry to hear about it, pal. Just take it one day at a time.

I have to agree with Lemur on this, you absolutely said the right thing and it is fantastic that you did so.

What institution are you in in? One of these orthodox religious schools? If so get out of there
Re: The continuation of my Israel experience thread
Yeah I know. I leave for a tour of Eastern Europe March 18th. I get back March 26th. My flight home is for March 28th.
Yeah, its an Orthodox institution, though not at orthodox as those Jews who throw rocks at people.
Re: The continuation of my Israel experience thread
If you want to gtfu out of there any sooner let me know

It will make a fantastic comedy as well.
In more important news, my parents just gave me the OK to leave for Passover and not come back.
VICTORY!

Re: The continuation of my Israel experience thread
Well, to me, this thread is very interesting. I'm actually visiting Israel in June this year, so I'm wondering what it's like to be there.

I suggest an immediately journey to Las Vegas to fill up on deleterious activities you were denied.
