I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I DO! It's only a 30 minute walk.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

But I would still like to see some compation in the cable tv /cable modem market.

According to the State of Texas, they are sufficiently competitive to remove all state regulation on either. Apparently, the FCC is flirting with doing the same thing. Then we can all look forward to paying our monthly $700 telecablenet bills to SBComcastWarner.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was actually thinking more like the old lady down the hall, but thanks!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll throw myself on the mercy of my neighbors

ICK.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I'm obsessed with making sure that I have phone service in the event of a power outage. It's why I have a cheapy non-cordless phone tucked awkwardly on my bookshelf. Just in case.

OMG.

This is flamebait for the nerds among us, right?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My cellphone will work for 24 hours if it's fully charged when the power goes out. And I'll probably buy one of those emergency battery thingies.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Segway doesn't appeal (something about the standing-up thing), but my neighbor has a Honda Metro that I keep eyeing with envy. Vespas are way pricier, but they do have the wacky Spike-n-Dru "Ciao!" factor.

Absolutely. I mean, I have not a nerd cell in my body.

Mine never seems to be--I can't keep it charged nowadays.

Except now, when it's home being charged, forgotten.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

My cellphone will work for 24 hours if it's fully charged when the power goes out. And I'll probably buy one of those emergency battery thingies.

But then it's only halfway charged when the power goes out and there's a three day power outage and NO ONE is open to sell you a battery powered cell phoen charger cuz you never thought you'd need one!

Wasn't there somthing on NPR this morning about them wanting to charge the content providers because their delivery system was so good? The story said something about it being a poor idea since deregulations have killed competion.
