Zipcon's Guestbook

Thank you for visiting Zipcon! Please feel free to add to this guestbook we are keeping!

Hi, I'm Carl. My name comes from the Latin, 'Carlos', which means, "Man who is named Carl". My father, Carl, named me after the great architect Carl Stamos, who designed and built our family home in 1962. Other great Carls have inspired me to become the Carl I am today, including Carl Westermann, inventor of the power point granite chisel. And Carlos Perez, creator of Perez Candy Chomps. My research has also turned up a few lesser known Carls, but Carls that none the less had a great impact on all of our daily lives. Carl Thomas was the first man in 1877 to design the path needed for staples to be effective. So whenever you look at that little plate on the bottom part of your stapler, you now know that a Carl was responsible for it's design. Also somewhat unknown but very important was Carl McKluskey, developer of the famous McKluskey trap box. And then there's Carl Tomaine, scientist best known for his discovery of the well known anti-plaque additive used in Tomaine Tartar Control Toothpaste. I take great pride in knowing the roots of my name, and all of the great people who share my name and their accomplishments. I can only hope that some day I will be as vital as they have been.

Ok, so now I'm on the spot... Creative, creative... This is like writing a timed essay! C'mon, I mean, I write fiction for fun and poems now and then, even one mediocre short play! Surely I can think of something creative to say here. I mean, it isn't that hard. Not like my life is depending on it. Or is it? Maybe I should close the blinds and turn off the lights. Just a minute... There, ok, that should make it harder for the snipers to get me. They're everywhere you know, they just hide real well. I see them looking across the way from the building next door sometimes, little red laser dots out of the corner of my eye. Oh yes, I'm onto them, they won't take me so easily! I mean, they'd have to have thermal sights to... um.. maybe they do. I mean, maybe they're looking at me right now, little heat blob through the blinds. I don't have any thermal sights, how could I know. Do you think they are? Please, don't have them kill me. I'm just having writer's block! It's the pressure. Well, that and the voices in my head. All that chattering, makes it hard to think you know. Where was I? Oh yeah... umm.. I think I'd better go hide in the basement...

I have a pair of pants with one of your zippers on it and it has broken. I didn't use any force or get anything caught in it, it just popped off track and my pants are ruined. I really love those pants and I wonder if you can repair or replace the zipper for me? They should be under warranty or something since I just got them a couple of months ago. Is there an address for such things? A service department you could refer me to? I really need help!

I would like to thank each and everyone of you involved in the naming of this company and web page. Now, if I could convince you to make one more simple change, my mission would be complete. If you could just change the "con" to "code", then our message would get out to the mailing public. Use zip codes! Please tell me, just how many zips do you have listed here on this site? Have you cross referenced to insure accuracy? You know, the leading cause of misdirected mail is the use of bad zips or no zips at all! Why, some cities have up to twenty different zips within the city limits to help pinpoint exact locations. If a sender errs and uses a wrong zip, his mail will go where ever that wrong zip is! Delay! Thank you so much for this useful page. I just hope the people get the chance to use it's wonderful wealth of information!

Every time I open another book, it seems like if I don't start I will never get finished. This is how I felt when I was visiting the great ruins of Altima. Gazing out over the sea of trash, I couldn't help but wonder how it all came to be. When did it begin and when will it end? As we made our way up the winding paved road, the mules began to tire and collapse. We had to make the rest of the journey on hands and knees, until we realized we could walk upright. That eased our pain a bit but still, what would we find when we reached the summit, we wondered. Well, there it sat just like the brochure had promised. It was massive in size and stature. We were awe struck. On the walk down we joked with each other of how we would look in that position! Back at the store we got some chips and Donna made some dip for us all. It was a glorious week out there with those lesbians.

Ok since I already messed up your guestbook with that test I sent to your guestbook that was supposed to go to mine I thought I'd mess it up again with a little java! hahahaha But first! (This is where it gets mushy..blech!) I love the service you offer! I can't believe you can get away with being so inexpensive.. and I really appreciate all the help you gave me when I first sighned on! I would have used up all of my free trial just trying to get that darn Dial-Up Networking going if you didnt help! Thanks again!!! And for anyone else out there come check out my page!

I started to sign on for the 2 wk trial. If you only access area 206 won't that be a long distance call from Sacramento for each minute I am on zipnet. This could be more expensive than the service I have. Please advise. Babs

A friend told me about you. Is it correct that your fee for individuals is $15.00 flat /per month? I am looking for a less expensive service than aol or Prodigy. Iam interesting in news and in research-historical and Genealogy This seems good but I need to know more about it. and ways to access different sections. Also do I need another service other than zip. I have a Mac performa 6116cd. I have the Apple connection Kit but have not connected with it. Thanks for listening.
