I hope it's a cable modem. Just got one at work (caregiving) and it's the only thing possible. Had it at home for two years and you can't go back.

At dinner jane talked about riding in a car and hearing Gershwin for the first time on a car radio. (That is, both Gershwin and the car radio... She's 89 and remembers when cars didn't have them). I related that to the freedom I felt when I first got a cell phone. Wow, I'm walking down the street and I'm talking on a PHONE. Mark

Blog (noun) A weblog or similar brief journal usually containing links and commentary thereon. Term coined by Peter Merholz.
Visit Typepad or Blogger to start your own. (I began with hand coding, then switched to Blogger when it first became available, then to Movable Type when I wanted more control over my weblog and to have it hosted at a place of my choosing (Hurricane Electric). Now I use Typepad, built by the same folks who made Movable Type and I love it).
