Title: I joined the 21st century this weekend!
Post by: bowtarist on October 21, 2013, 02:08:09 pm
Well, my wife finally talked me into going to town and checking out the internet companies to try to get rid of our dial-up connection that we've had since 2005.  I got my first cell phone right before last years classic, but failed to use it while I was there and caught a rash of you know what when I got home, but this weekend, we got our phone provider to set us up with an in house router and now we have  high speed internet at the house. No more waiting til I get to work to look at photos! Just thought I'd let the ones who know me know that I have stepped into a new realm at the house.   Still a caveman though ;), Oooga booga, dpg

Thanks Josh, you're right, it was time.

Tracy, it used to be $10 a month, then it went up twice in two months time to nearly $25 a month, that's when the wife called it...or should I say culled it.   :D

Have a gooder, dp
