So I helped a coworker configure a Freesco box over the phone, then I went over and helped set up Gatermann’s PCs. Making Freesco work with a PPPoE connection is a bit of a drag, but with Google’s help we got it going. I also had to hack into his Web server because he forgot his password. So naturally I defaced his site while I was there. I also fixed his Apache configuration file. I’m such a nice guy…

Greeting:
Kindly get a real job and refrain from trying to peddle re-labeled bottles of vitamin C purchased at local establishments with “mart” in their name to my audience. They may be uneducated, but they clearly are not as stupid as you. As for your entreprenuerial endeavors, I find the best, most reliable way to make large sums of money is to inherit it.
My audience already knows that if they feel they need mood-improving drugs without first consulting a doctor or another qualified scientist such as myself, their best bet is to buy a bottle of vitamin B12.
