hey guys i just talked to cliff , he is trying to download aol and his dial up so he can be back in business. he thinks we need adult supervision, i told him we would have to find an adult to do it.

 

dial up, oh well at least we won't have to worry about Cliff hi-jacking a thread anymore

 

Hmmm so we need to include lots of images in our posts to suck up bandwidth now

 

Wanna Bet ?????

 

heeee's baaacckk!

 

Uggg, dialup....I feel for him. I just went thru that for the last month and caved in and got DSL (no cable run out here).

 

You're not kidding it slllloooooooowwwwwwwwwwww.

 

I have DSL at the house and we're in one of those areas where it just barely reaches. The service is fine until a storm cloud comes around...then it's less reliable than our DirecTV service.

 

I miss my cable Internet.

 

That's what we're going to put into the new house, whenever we get around to building it. I guess I better do the drawings first though.

 

My wife is talking about getting the same set up that you have now with direct tv I think it has to be better than this.

 

The DirecTV is great until the heavy thunderstoms come through. Then you lose reception until it clears out. You also have to keep the trees trimmed near the dish. We had one taken down last year and until they did, the reception went out every time the wind was blowing South.
At the same time, when everyone in the neighborhood lost cable for a week because of the ice storm, we had reception (just had to keep the generator running).
