The Fry Family History
There are so many things I didn’t know about daddy and his life. Just think about Agatha and Jeremy Joseph. And as you all know, I don’t like not knowing. It was then I decided I must find out. I must write down the Fry family history. It’s not easy finding things out in this family. Stepmother dearest isn’t so good with truth and seem to be making things up along the way. Interesting of course, but maybe not so good when trying to find out the real truth. One late night, when daddy and stepmother dearest had gone to bed, I sneaked into daddy’s study and tried to hack into his MacBook. It wasn’t as difficult as it could have been since daddy had forgotten to turn it off. I just copied all the notes for his new book to my usb stick and sneaked out again. It will be so exciting going through those notes. And when I’m done I’ll start writing the Fry Family history.
I’ll post each chapter as soon as I have finished writing them. From the notes I can already think about a few interesting chapters, “Agatha – how it all began“, “The true story about Edna’s hat“ and of course, “How twins could end up half-siblings“.

Skype – a newfound love
I tried it years ago. Being a geek, there are few things online that I haven’t tried, but I didn’t like it. I’m talking about Skype. Skype was a very primitive ugly looking chat program, or so I thought. It also crashed all the time and the voice chat was very bad. My opinions about it might have several reasons. Of course it could be that it was a primitive ugly looking unstable program, but it could also have other reasons. I had a n old computer back then. The mac version might not have been so good back then. And since I didn’t like voice, I might have seen the interface with less than objective eyes.
A couple of weeks ago I thought it was time to give the program another chance. One of my close online friends used Skype only, these days and I wanted to keep in touch. So I downloaded it again. My first impression wasn’t much different from the last time I tried it. The interface still looks very old. I didn’t give up though, so I went on trying all the features and after a few minutes I was hooked. Here’s a few of the things I love about it:
- The sound quality is amazing. It sounds like I’m talking on the phone.
- You can “share” your desktop which means you can show it to those you talk to.
_ It’s really cheap calling to landlines, even in another continent.
- Computer to computer calls are free.
- You can have video chats
- You can keep your anonymity since your “phone number” could be your username.
- If you pay a small sum, you can have a “real” phone number.
- For a set amount of money you can have unlimited calls.
So far I’ve only tried the computer to computer voice chat, but I’m sure it works just as well as a regular phone. When I can afford it, I’ll buy this cool Skype phone too. It’s a phone that handles Skype and can be connected all the time. When I have that, I can replace my IP phone and be able to call very cheap all over the world. It will be great:)
