'Twas the morn before christmas, when all through the house
not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The hub was a hubbing on the shelf with great care,
ensuring my server was available to share.
The lord of the house (me) was asleep in my bed
while visions of email/blogs/wesites danced in my head.
**cant think of a good rhyme for the next 2 lines.
**pleh.
When peaked through the window a light so shiny,
The xmas eve(morning) sunshine beamed on my hiney.
Away to the computer I flew in a dash,
stopping only for coffee (c'mon, it was early).
The glow of the monitor on my sleep-weary eyes,
evolution2.x filtering the spam I despise.
"Lets check out slashdot" as I start out my rounds,
what the heck..."Website cannot be found"?
Freshmeat, CNN, DailyKOS, and the Drudge...
All the same message, "oh man...oh fudge..."
I have some more coffee to clear out my head
and slowly the horror sinks in...my modem is dead.
I'm having serious withdrawals here. Does *anyone* have an actiontec
DSL modem in working condition and will work with qwest dsl? I will
gladly buy it from you (depending on price) *and* drive to wherever you
are to pick it up. Help...getting the shakes...need...internet...
Thanks,
David
