And NO Internet either it seems

Their is no line of sight between the new house and the nearest tower,,, AND there is no copper to the house either.

Who would have thunk I would have had to check for Internet availability before I moved into a house in the MIDDLE of down town?!?!?!

**sigh**

Story of my life,,,

Two steps forward,,, three steps back,,,

I don't know when I'll be back guys,,, another week or so I'm sure.

 

Roomates are such a pain.............wait.........what about imaginary roomates?

 

Hey everyone in WA! It's been a short minute since i posted here. Well just wanted to say i just found out last night that my wife is pregnant with our 3rd child lol. Not to much fun though, Since im deploying again in a few months... Oh well.

Also, Im looking for a Dana 60 front axle, anyone know of any? CL isn't being very helpful. Everyone seems to think they are better than gold.

 

Congrats, man!

Are you looking for a high pinion 60? I've heard Walt & Vern's in Buckley is a good source for parts, especially axles. I've never been there, but have a couple friends who have and gotten rears from them. Both swapped semifloating 10.25's for full floaters. Truck Parts - Walt and Vern's Truck Parts - Home

 

Congrats Cliff!!

The lack of internet really sucks to say the least..

 

... I remember the days of manual typewriters and licking the stamps, sure miss those days.

 

Ha! Planehunter has the answer! Becca is George's imaginary roomie!

 

I signed up for a typing class in HS, in the days of manual typewriters. Got ribbed by some of the guys but it gave me an hour a day in with a batch of really nice girls! Little did I know at that time that keyboard skills would actually become valuable skills for men(?)

 

Hey Lizzie, what are your options for a hookup?

 

Well, there's no copper to the new house,,, so we tried wireless,,

But,,, there's no line-of-sight between the nearest tower and the house,,,

So,,, since I've been a customer of theirs for over 10 years, they are asking a third party to bring copper to the house, as it's less than 1/2 a mile away. If they agree, it will take a couple of weeks to bring it in.

I could go with satellite, but I play an online Pirate Game,,, so there's a bandwidth problem,,

If I get a plan I can afford, I will use all of my bandwidth for the month,,, in about 20 minutes,,, and to get enough to do what I want it to do, would cost me over $300 a month,,, sigh

AND there's a delay,,,

The delay is not a big deal when you're just surfing,,, but in gaming there's enough of a delay that I get shot twice before I even know I'm being shot,,, so I can't sink them back!!!

Who woulda thunk I'd have to check for Internet availability before moving into a house in the MIDDLE of down town?!?!?!

The boonies, yeah,, but IN town?? Geeez!!!

 

Well that double sux.... Don't they realize that a girl has NEEDS??

 

Sssshhhh Papa!! Becca's shy!!

 

liz.. do you have good cell phone reception there? if so do what i did..i bought a droid 2 and then i rooted it(hacked it) so i could pirate my phones internet to tether to my computer so now i have free wifi to my computer at home..it works well i can watch netflix with very little buffer time..pretty impressive from a phone to computer..

 

Cell reception is spotty room to room,, and there is no way I can afford a Droid. Looked into it when they had a two-for-one sale going last month,,, ain't gonna happen,,,

Hell,,, I'm still using a five-year-old flip phone!!! lol

 

well the way i factored it is if i cut out the cost of internet i was saving about 15 a month lol
