So our cable TV service got knocked out by high wind in the bay area last night. it just came back up now, at 4:45pm. SO i couldn't watch any of the big college games today AND our cable modem was outta service. Sucked. I missed my G|A. I missed my football.

But I guess the bright side is that I'm back now...

I do live in the dorms. I'm at home in the bay area, mang.

and I'm sure we have a dial-up back up but my dad took this as an opportunity to put me to work.

wind is air that moves from one location to another. stand in front of a fan and you'll see. or better yet, jump off the roof. you'll feel the wind on the way down. you can't miss it. hehe.:P

agreed, cox does suck

i'm in comcast country now...and my cable service rocks...well, modem service that is. i'm guessing not many people in my apartment complex have cable modems, cuz i'm gettin crazy speed from it

digital cable prices...now that's another story

just sucks that i can't get cable modem w/o having cable tv service, i have no home phone, only cell...so no dsl either...

sigh...
