Did I Mention?

How much I truly love rural baja georgia phone lines? And Internet connections via same? It is aggrevated by being near the end of a branch line; which still seems to confuse me as people not far away from us (geographically) have DSL service. Then again, their phone lines come in to their place from a different direction. (No, [livejournal.com profile] chasoloki, I'm not referring to you; it's some folk between Archer and Bronson.)

I'll be flying out to Knoxville in a few hours; some last minute packing (like, the laptop) and driving directions from the airport to the hotel. TTFN

On the Way

Here I sit in Hoggetowne's airport... just gotta go ahead and use the free wireless Internet on principle. Will post more later.

Arrived Alive

With an amusing interlude in Charlotte...

Duct tape? On airplanes?

Actually, it's called "speed tape" because it will withstand a windspeed just shy of 400 mph, and was covering freshly applied sealant over the cockpit windows. I've seen it used before, long time ago. So I wasn't worried about the appearance. My travelling companions, however, were not sure they wanted to board the aircraft. *G*

Ahhhh. High speed Internet.
