All my posting has been from this laptop, but since I’m getting laid off, the laptop has to go back.
I’m soon to be computerless. I’ll check back once more tomorrow…then I’m gone. Don’t say anything neat or interesting until I get a computer or my own, OK? I’d hate to miss anything.
I wonder when the withdrawals will start?
So, Goodbye for Now.
Rysdad
[Arnold] I’ll be back. [/Arnold]
I promise I won’t say anything neat or interesting until you get your own computer. It’ll be easy for me to do - I’m usually sloppy and uninteresting, so it’s not like I’m making a huge effort.
Hurry up and get that new computer, though.
Hurry back!
Well, now doesn’t that just suck?
Get ‘cyber’ real quick, we need help in the Grand Conspiracy thread.
Why doncha look around and see if you can find a public terminal someplace? I’ll bet most libraries have 'em.
Anyway, good luck with the job search, Rysdad.
Um, it was nice meeting you. I was in your situation last February when I lost my job. Interestingly enough, today I just got my home hook up and this was the first message I read. Miss ya. We need all the MN dopers we can get.
bummer.
not having access to a work computer is what got me to buy my ibook. this mb really gets a hold on you. i hope to see you back soon.
racerx: i wondered what happened. welcome home.
Friday.
Good luck, Rysdad … hurry back, please 
Perhaps we should have a moment of seriousness here…
My name is Ruby and I am a Straightdopeaholic.
Rysdad, I feel your pain. The 'dopeaholic DT’s are gonna be bad, dude.
Go immediately to the nearest public library, do not pass Go, do not collect $200, and get your “fix”. Life will be better for it.
Bummer. Total bummer. I’ve also been in your position of being “computer-less”. As everyone else has said, hie thyself unto the library and make use of its wonders. Really. It’ll be okay. Good luck on the job-hunt thing.
There’s not really any cure for Straighdopeaholism, I’m afraid. It’s one of those drugs that changes your body chemistry and your ability to perceive reality. Kind of like Spice (Dune, anyone?).
Well, since the Reader won’t take our money, let’s buy Rysdad one hell of a whoop-ass computer. After all, it’s just sitting in that poll doing nothing, right?
Right?
