Cable Modem!
Yes, the cable modem guy showed up on schedule. The ISP account is gone but I haven't cut all my ties with Ma Bell yet. I might keep one phone line for a while, just to see how much I use it.
Most people think the guy just has too much time on his hands, but I like what this guy has done. Just about everything in his house (doorbell, microwave oven, trash can) is connected to his computer. His web site then gives statistics on stuff like his cat's eating habits. Wow.
If you find the reality into electrons trip a little too rough, how about electrons into reality? Check into that little village in "Germany," Icontown.
