Delivered from Dial-up Hell

Last Thursday night, HUGE thunderstorm here. I awoke to a power surge and a Godawful noise coming from my office. Terrified the PC was the victim, I waited for the storms to pass and gingerly powered the thing up. PC, scanner, printer, all fine (double surged, better damn well be). DSL modem, fried, go figure, I can'te, plugged into the same surge that the CPU.

So, suffered through 56k dial up for the last few days, made LoT almost unloadable! New modem today, back and speedy, huge relief!

Thunderstorms have not stopped, yet. May I say, I will not miss this crappy weather?

Blast off for California, July 7th
