A story for you all

Once upon a time there was a beautiful princess, who I will call Christina, because thats her name, and she lived in the wonderful land of Boynton. Things were good in Boynton, the people were nice and the area had a nice, fast internet connection.
One day Christina went to the smelly, loud land of Common Grounds with her friend from a neighboring land, Courtney. When she returned to her room she found that her internet was not working. "Oh no!" cried the princess. "What has happened to my internet. I need it to communicate with the outside world." She tried and tried to get online, but to no avail. It simply didn't work anymore. Because it was late the princess decided to see if she could get it to work in the morning.
The next morning, Christina was awakened by the sound of her telephone ringing. "Christina, why aren't you online?" the voice asked when she answered, "and would you like to get some food?" Knowing it was her friend Mary from the food comment Christina said that she would get some food as soon as she figured out what was wrong with her computer. Mary came over and watched as Christina poked and prodded at her computer, but alas, nothing was helping. Finally Christina decided to call the evil trolls of resnet, and, since it was a saturday, and the lazy trolls took the weekends off (even thought they are perfectly willing to turn someones internet off on the weekend so that nothing can be done about it) and left a message. The rest of the weekend her wonderfulness worried about her computer and what was wrong with it.
On Monday the trolls called her back, but unfortunatly she did not get the message until 4:50 and, for reasons understood by no one but the evil creatures themselves, the office closes at the dumb time of 4:45. She called back first thing Tuesday morning to make an appointment for Wednesday at 11.
On Wednesday at 11:15 the putrid troll who was supposed to fix her computer had not shown up so Christina was forced to call again and see what was going on. Apparently Captain Dumbass decided that he was a ginormous tool and wasn't going to show up. A slightly nicer, but still dumb, troll came in his place. Sadly, there was not enough time to fix her computer before the princess had to leave for Thanksgiving. She was given instructions to call and leave a message over the holiday and someone would call and make another appointment.
She did as she was instructed, and sure enough, when Monday rolled around the evil resnet trolls called her. She made and appointment for Tuesday at 9:15. A new troll arrived at her door on Tuesday and actually seemed to fix her computer. The bad news was that she still might not have her internet on for a week because the system there was crazy and effed up and resnet could not turn her internet on, network services had to do that. The young beauty was saddened by the news that she must feel cut off and amish for another week. Later that day she checked her messages and found that the resnet troll had left her an evil message that she had no record of her port being turned off.
Christina spent the next week and a half trying to figure out why her internet wasn't on and how to get it back. After squabling with the trolls about the fact that it was infact off, they decided to tell her that network services had turned it back on. Christina tried to tell them that she still didn't have internet, but she was getting no where. She decided to turn to a higher power. She told the queen of the Hamilton Kingdom, Amy Juve, what was going on and she said that she would get on it as soon as possible. Unfortunatly Amy was busy with various delinquent pesants that day and did not have time to see to Christina's horrible problem. Horribly, that day was a friday, so she had to wait all the way until Monday for anything to happen again.
On Monday she tried her internet and it still didn't work. This was no suprise, but still she missed her friend internet a lot. She went out that day with her friend Morgan, who was from a far way kingdom known as Bean. She and Morgan went shopping and Christina got fun stuff for Christmas presents. When she returned to her room, she tried to get on AIM just for fun and she watched a wonderful thing happen. Right before her eyes she was connected to the internet. That day and night there was much rejoicing from Christina, who was no longer cut off from the outside world and feeling amish. She ended up staying up until 6:30 in the morning on her computer, but that my friends is another story...

Once upon a time there was a lovely young maiden (well, maybe not maiden, but never mind) who was a student at the UofO. She wasn't poor, but she wasn't rich either, so she took a student job at resnet. At first all was well in the land of resent. She told the dwellers of the land how to turn on their computers, and sold them lovely items like cables and ethernet cards. She also calmed angry parents and soothed the ruffled spirits of the dread co-workers when they were abused by students with old computers. However, as the years, disguised as work-hours progressed, she began to get phone calls from enraged dorm-dwellers (like quellors?) who believed that she and her cohorts were the evil tower-dwelling beasts who turned off their internet with malice and rage. They were mistaken. It was the evil Network services overlord (not at all the same department) who commited the dastardly crimes, then left the poor non-maiden and her band of brave cohorts to clean up the remains, bravely facing fearsome viruses and worms from their tiny first-floor room. Did the dormers welcome these brave warriors? Alas, this tale ends sadly. They greeted their saviors with taunts and abuses. Our heroine grew to hate her job, and grew trembly at answering the telephone.
