All the best, @Kathy

My sincerest condolences @Gibbs505

In personal news I’m on holiday from tomorrow until the 24th of May so may not be around as much as usual depending on WiFi and availability. We will be in Austria so a completely different time zone as well. I wonder if they speak English as well as Australians, it’s only two letters difference? In all seriousness, they probably speak better English if my experiences in Germany are anything to go by. I had a German girlfriend for about 5 years when I was a teenager and she definitely spoke better English than I!

Anyway, I’ll see you guys when I see you and back here on the 24th of May.
Stay safe during your travels

Have a good journey in Austria, Loinclothslave!:)

I'm baaaaaack!
As some of you might have noticed, I have not been contributing anything for a few weeks. That's because a lightning strike killed my router and, after having to deal with Frontier Communications and the "wonderful" customer service:rolleyes:, and finally getting a new working router I discovered that the lightning had damaged my computer too. Due to its age, it was cheaper to get a new (refurbished) model. Finally, I got a new one yesterday.
I did have wifi with the new router, but my laptop is also old and slow and would have been almost useless for a site like this.
I'm still trying to set things up so I may not be very active for a while, but I am here again.


You did notice I've been missing, didn't you?:(

Sorry to hear about your misfortune, but glad you're back. Good luck with your recovery.

Frontier Communications. They're the ones who bought " wire assets" years ago that Verizon wanted to get rid of. I own Verizon stock. I got some Frontier stock when the deal closed. Having been burned before (i.e., one spin-off went belly up), I sold it right away. From what I've read, Frontier has huge debt and their profitability is always questionable. Of course you can't pick your land-line carrier very easily, especially in rural areas.

It seems Jove (or Jehovah) doesn't think much of Frontier Communications either! :firedevil:
 
We were just considering to send out a rescue squad of Blue State cruxgirls, under the capable command of Barb!:cool:

Good you are back!:)
Damn. I should have waited a little longer.:cool:

Just as well. The squad would probably have gotten itself hopelessly lost and ended up in Arkansas
Then its a good thing I got back when I did.:p

That's them. Our landline was with Verizon (before that, it was GTE) when we first got the internet. The only alternative in our area is Spectrum (formerly Bright House, formerly Time-Warner), which does pretty good with the cable TV, but I've heard their internet is even worse than Frontier.
They say competition improves service and brings down price. Yeah, right.
 
From June 27th I will be unavailable for a while. During an examination, my doctor discovered a small lump in me and it will be surgically removed. I hope everything goes well!
