Posted By: Sheri (New Board: ForeignJobs 23) on 'ForeignJobs' Title: My first big step... Date: Thu Oct 14 22:59:32 1999 Today is October 14, 1999. Perhaps the biggest step I have made in opening the city's first Internet cafe, get the bilding oked to be in. The hardest part will be finding a three sink area where I can put in a water supply.. I think I have chosen in front of my window. This way I can put the extra money in a locked room if I need to really fast. The landlord will do the rest. I needed to know what to go by and where to put the exit signs. The electrical inspector was there too. I think the time went quite well. We all were willing to work together to make it work. I now have time to get the rest of the things needed, the painter is coming i to paint the colours I would like to have.. I think my landlord and I can work towards aquality property together.

They risk lots for this time that's promised. I think Sheri's Web will serve to make that possible with complete dedication, determination, hard work, and fun. Definitely fun. Computer fun family style.. Relaxing, informative, and personable. My goal, to link more in a fun way to the internet, hopefully taking some of the fear of comptuers away for some, and a new way to spend family nights, groups, friends, students. I have found the internet very impersonable til those on it make it personable. I believe that while people go to restaurants even though they good food, they will want to do that with their other time regarding their computer fun and services. While the word Cafe says a menu, this menu will be the use of our computers. We have two operating systems, Linux and Microsoft to choose from. My shop will have what's called an On Site Net Nanny: Gretchen. It is a safety system for people under age. Rather than us monitoring their children's actions, we will take responsibility up to using protective software tried and found to be effective. We can not replace parents. Parents of four teens, we know if a child wants to bad enough, they will get to material they shouldn't. As Parents, Paul and I have had to often monitor our children's actions many times. I look forward to the challenge.. more later.. SHERI'S WEB INTERNATIONAL ** Email address: sheri@sherisweb.com Web Address: http://www.sherisweb.com
