Diary of an AOL User

July 18 - I just tried to connect to America Online. I've heard it is the best online service I can get. They even included a free disk! I'd better hold onto it incase they don't ever send me anther one! I can't connect. I don't know what is wrong.

July 19 - Some guy at the tech support center says my computer needs a modem. I don't see why. He's just trying to cheat me. How dumb does he think I am?

July 22 - I bought the modem. I couldn't figure out where it goes. It wouldn't fit in the monitor or the printer. I'm confused.

July 23 - I finally got the modem in and hooked up. that nine year old next door did it for me. But it still don't work. I cant get online.

July 25 - That nine year old kid next door hooked me up to America Online for me. He's so smart. I told the kid he was a prodigy. But he says that's just another service. What a modest kid. He's so smart and he does these services for people. Anyway he's smarter then the jerks who sold me the modem. They didn't even tell me about communications software. Bet they didn't know. And why do they put two telephone jack holes in the back of a modem when you only need one? And why do they have one labeled phone when you are not suppose to hook it to the phone jack on the wall? I thought the dial tone sounded funny! Boy, are modem makers dumb! But the kid figured it out by the sound.

July 26 - What's the internet? I thought I was on America Online. Not this internet thing. I'm confused.

July 27 - The nine year old kid next door showed me how to use this America Online stuff. I told him he must be a genius. He says that he is compared to me. Maybe he's not so modest after all.

July 28 - I tried to use chat today. I tried to talk into my computer but nothing happened. maybe I need to buy a microphone.

July 29 - I found this thing called usenet. I got out of it because I'm connected to America Online not usenet.

July 30 - These people in this usenet thing keep using capital letters. How do they do that? I never figured out how to type capital letters. Maybe they have a different type of keyboard.

JULY 31 - I CALLED THE COMPUTER MAKER I BOUGHT IT FROM TO COMPLAIN ABOUT NOT HAVING A CAPITOL LETTER KEY. THE TECH SUPPORT GUY SAID IT WAS THIS CAPS LOCK KEY. WHY DIDN'T THEY SPELL IT OUT? I TOLD HIM

AUG 2 - I HAVE FORGOTTON HOW TO TURN THE CAPITAL LETTERS OFF. EVERY TIME I AM IN A CHAT ROOM PEOPLE ARE RUDE TO ME. PEOPLE SAY I AM SHOUTING. HOW CAN THAT BE? I AM NOT EVEN TALKING. I TOLD THEM THEY ALL WERE IDIOTS AND I POSTED IT ABOT 18 TIMES CAUSE I AM NOT SURE IF ANYONE SAW IT.

Aug 3 - I asked the kid next door how to turn the capital letter off. All he did was push the caps lock key again. He is such i smart kid. He said he wish he could say the same. I have no idea what that means.

Aug 5 - I keep hearing about the World Wide Web. I had no idea that spiders could make ther web that big? Maybe the government is producing gigantic spiders.

Aug 6 - I asked the Tech support guy about the World Wide Web and he started swearing at me!!! He told me to read the FAQ's He really didn't need to swear at me!
