O Internet, Where Art Thou?
I just spent an entire day being the tech support guy at work. Our main IT person is in Atlanta, and never comes to our office. So when I came in and our phones and Internet were down, I did what anyone else would have done: I turned it off and back on again.

The one where the Internet craps out
Where’s today’s post? Well, it’s kinda long, and it’s on my desktop computer, and my modem just crapped out. It’s okay, I should get a new modem by Thursday. Until then, I’ll roam coffee shops […]
