    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.

    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.

    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!

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    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.
