  • Qualified for DSL

    Just checked to see if I qualify for DSL… low and behold, sure enough, I do… yet people who are closer to the central office than I cannot get DSL. Go figure! Lots of stuff to troubleshoot today. Can’t wait to break this message board thing… 🙂

  • Gaming

    Hmmmmmmmm… Thinking about getting back into gaming. Will need to talk to my friends and gauge their interest of course. Don’t really know anyone who is currently gaming.

Consider that these places have areas for interacting with other members. People do the usual thing like talk to each other. I think the key is the results of the conversation… they argue, aid other, seek info,…

  • Privacy & Transparency Balance
