It would be easier for me to cut off my penis than to give up broadband.

But then what would you do when I come to Dallas then? If all you can do is show me your broadband internet, then I'd be a disappointed Seumas!

You are a total goof.
I would cut it off, not

Yes, but unless it's connected to all those veins and nerves, it won't do what I want it to do.

Actual quote from DS of L
"Assimilate! Assimilate! Resistance is futile!"
I wonder if we might, in the distant future, go to The ISP Museum

DSL down!!!
*panic*
DSL up!!
*sigh of relief, realizing the computer was actually

56K? Ha! I remember using a 2.4K modem. Of course, this was in the days before Flash, etc.
I was one of the last people I knew who couldn't use a "graphical" browser.

Hey, I used to use lynx and pine on my 286 with 2400 modem back in my Hamilton-Wentworth freenet days. Of course back then BBS's still kicked ass because they had ANSI and waaay better files.
