Imagine it pourin’, it’s rainin’ down on us
Moshpits outside the oval office
Someone’s tryin to tell us something
Maybe this is God just sayin’ we’re responsible
For this monster – this coward that we have empowered
This is Bin Laden
Look at his head noddin’
How could we allow something like this without pumpin’ our fists
Now, this is our final hour
Let me be the voice, and your strength and your choice
Let me simplify the rhyme just to amplify the noise
Try to amplify it, times it, and multiply it by sixteen million
People are equal at this high pitch
Maybe we can reach Al Qaeda through my speech
Let the president answer our high anarchy
Strap him with a AK-47, let him go fight his own war
Let him impress daddy that way

No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our own soil
No more psychological warfare to trick us to thinking that we ain’t loyal
If we don’t serve our own country, we’re patronizing our hero
Look in his eyes, its all lies
The stars and stripes, have been swiped
Washed out and wiped and replaced with his own face
Mosh now or die
If I get sniped tonight, you’ll know why
‘Cuz I told you to fight

One more kiss could be the best thing
one more lie could be the worst
all these thoughts are never resting
And you’re not something I deserve

In my head there’s only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there’s real and make believe
this seems real to me

[Chorus]
You love me but you dont know who I am
I’m torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Let me go

I dream ahead to what I hope for
And I turn my back on loving you
How can this love be a good thing
when i know what I’m goin through

In my head there’s only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there’s real and make believe
this seems real to me

[Chorus]
You love me but you dont know who I am
I’m torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Just Let me go…
Let me go

And no matter how hard I try
I can’t escape these things inside I know
I knowww..
When all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows
Who knows

[Chorus]
You love me but you dont know who I am
I’m torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you dont know Who I am
So let me go
Just let me go

you love me but you dont
you love me but you dont
you love me but you dont know who I am
you love me but you dont
you love me but you dont
you love me but you dont know me

Oh.

My.

God.

I finally got my mother offline. Of course she didn’t tell me her password first ..

I called and got her password. I signed on as her (Master screenname).

Open up Parental Controls. Everything was set right. “Damn, this isn’t going to work.” Opened the IM Controls settings for JBSil. Hit “Save” – didn’t change anything, just hit “Save” – and now it works fine.

And people wonder why I hate AOL.

Edit:
Now all thats left is to reformat my computer so I can get this awful thing off of here.

Only AOL Help could possibly have come up with an icon that has red check marks and green X’s. I’m impressed.
Edit: so impressed that I made it my LJ Icon.

Report a Problem

Posted by JBSil on 24th May 2005

The only possible way to submit any problems to AIM at aim.com has this little blurb at the bottom of the form … which I found out AFTER filling the entire thing out:

Check this checkbox to indicate that you understand this is not a place to get support, and that you will not receive a reply to the information you entered above. You may not submit a bug report unless you check this box. If you need help solving a problem, please visit our FAQ page instead.
Emphasis, mine.

TechLiveSHMO says, To find answers to frequently asked questions about the AOL Instant Messenger (AIM), please visit: http://www.aim.com/help_faq/starting_out/getstarted.adp?aolp=1
TechLiveSHMO says, If you are having problems with AOL Instant Messenger, you can submit a report directly to the AIM support team. Please go to http://www.aim.com. Click REPORT A PROBLEM, then follow the online instructions.

During one of my parents random getaway’s to foreign countries, they happened across Turkey. A few days ago there was a charge on my mother’s credit card from Turkey. The were in Turkey over a year ago. Related? Probably. A charge my mother made? Probably, but hard to say.

Visa has canceled her card until they can conduct a full investigation. They will be issuing her (and me) a new card, but I don’t believe she has it yet.

My mother’s AOL subscription is paid on her Visa card, which is currently canceled.

My JBSil screenname, although only used on AIM (*hate AOL* *hate AOL*) is under my mother’s AOL account.

AOL has suspended my mother’s account because her credit card is no longer valid.

My screenname (which, mind you, is only used on their free services) is no longer allowed to sign on.

Today, and hopefully today only, I will be accessible on “Neo JBSil” instead.

You will, thankfully, still see JBSil on your buddy lists, with the mobile icon next to the name. Feel free to text message me that way, I’ve got plenty of messages/month.

That’s all for now.
