Confessions of an Internet Addict
My name is Chris, and it's been 9 days since I accessed the internet using a high speed connection. When I last had DSL, the Red Sox were a half game up on the Yankees in the AL East and Outkast's song "Roses" was all over the airwaves. Now, the Red Sox are still only a half game up on the Yankees and "Roses" is still unfortunately played nonstop.
So that was a bad example that doesn't quite underscore the agony of nine days without listening to the Red Sox on internet radio, reading everyone's weblog comments, and watching the antics of that crazy Strong Bad. If I waste away and am never heard from again, avenge my death. Damn you SBC...
Comments
I've always been curious as to why it takes SBC two weeks to turn on a digital connection for DSL. After all...the phone line is digital, and they can get that done in half an hour. So what's the delay on high-speed internet? They know the place is internet-ready; you can look that up on the internet, for God's sakes.
I'm flummoxed, too. I just got my DSL back on Friday.
