Okies... So here's the reader's digest version. I'm trying to get my hands on an Apple USB Dial-Up Modem Model MA034Z/A for a little project I'm working on. I remembered ehMac to be the headquarters for the Apple People of Canuckistan and wanted to post a WANTED ad in the classifieds here -- but after reiding the Rules and Guidelines, I found that I need at least 30 posts to post in the classified section.
This has given rise to an rare opportunity -- I will answer any questions you dare to ask me. Questions can be anything, even personal. No question is off limits.
I will be completely honest and candid. I will not lie or misrepresent the truth in my response either directly or through omission.
Quite simply... you get to ask a perfect stranger absolutely anything you're twisted/perverted/curious/mundane mind can think of and it would be taboo. And you'll get an answer!
So... Let me have it!

First question: do you think your method of getting around the Classifieds rules this way will work?
Answer: It was not and is not my intent to break, get around, or subvert ehMac's rules or policies for the classified pages. Rather than doing something stupid like starting a thread about nothing and posting 30 times in a row which I believe would be breaking the rules, I came up with this idea as a creative and offbeat way to chat with complete strangers and perhaps get to know them a bit and maybe help them to get to know me.
Think of it like an ice breaker you might use if you walked in alone to a bar full of people you have never met. The conversation may not be profound or helpful... but at least it may prove to be entertaining.

Answer: Two reasons for not doing this. First off I'm rather hard up for cash right now -- it was my plan to see if someone wanted to swap for one or a couple of the potentially useful gadgets that I am not using. Or I was thinking of offering my design services in some way or another.
Second reason is that as of about two weeks ago, Apple Canada and Apple US stopped selling the item.
Next!

Answer: No. But I might as well be. Pickering is lovingly know by is denizens as P.Town and it is lacking in just about everything. It's not urban enough to be city life. It's not suburban enough to be full of soccer cougar mom's for the 20-something single guy to philander on a daily basis. And it's not country enough to enjoy any sort of connection with nature.
Pickering's most significant attraction is the wind turbine at Pickering Power Generation station. It's a nice thing to look at for all of about 10 minutes.
That's not even mentioning the quality of my apartment.

I can't call you Froggy-san yet as i don't know you and thus i will not attach the suffix to your name.
You want me to ask you any question...... do you really expect to reach 30 posts by starting this thread? Why don't you start a more controversial or newsworthy thread that'll linger longer?
Oh, Froggy-San, I beseech thee! What is the meaning of life?
