Tuesday, August 5

a strange thing happened today.serious shit.
i found some old stuff, and wow,i thought i'd never see them again.
i was opening some old programs just to see if i could delete some stuff, to make some room
for performance. i opened this e-mail management program,MICROSOFT OUTLOOK.
ya see, back in 1998, hotmail had bigger allocations for their subscribers, maybe 10MB of
storage for each head.so, you could save literally hundreds of e-mails,including spams,without
caring which to keep and which to delete.at that time (98/99/00) i was heavily into computers
(read:perak) and i found out that you could retrieve e-mails much,much easier by using
MICROSOFT OUTLOOK.so,i used them for quite a long time.basically,without knowing it,i was
storing e-mails in my own computer.
come the new millennium, hotmail was cutting corners,and also storage.each holders are entitled
only 2MB of storage until now.i was in a period of 'inactivity' at that time (read:computer rosak),
and the hotmail staff deleted all my e-mails.or so they thought..........*grin*.
fast forward to 2003.
i clicked on the 'hotmail inbox' of the outlook and voila! there you go! archived e-mails at your
fingertips.banyak jugak la e-mail.junk, mostly, and some are worth reminiscing about.....haha.
the moral here is: always check your e-mail, or those staffs will check them for you.

reminds me of the line

"senorita, i feel for you..."
