Dialup Internet

How in the world did I ever manage to put up with this? I remember when it was the shit to have a dialup connection, now it makes me want to scream.

I'm house and dog sitting for my parents for a couple of days. They have no high speed internet, no cable or dish tv, just what you can get with an antenna, and occasionally I can get a cell phone signal.

This is sooo much fun.

i told you to go sledding but watch out for the road

On a nasty ass night like tonight,that really sucks Have fun Brother

I glad you are still with us, I was beginning to wonder, much as you sleep you don't need too much.

They must live close...lol.....
That's as good as it gets around here.. Had to cut a few trees down to get the direct-tv, lol.
cell phone signal??? well most of the time.......................

Thats funny, my kids complain when they come home and get on our AT&T DSL because it is so much slower than the hi-speed we have at our house in College Station. Hope you are a patient man. LOL

Curt, you know Sonny Detmer, I went to school with him, he came to College Station, as the football coach., oh yea, he is pretty old now.

Damn that was funny LMAO!!. I remember having dial up and it was cool. I hope i never have to go back to that

I had Net 0 one time and what a pos that was.No support what so ever ,and I liked to never got hold to someone to get it cut off.Us old guys on here can remember when we did't have computers and internet.You had to go to all the swap meets just to try and find anything.No BBF Forums or any forums.I for one am truly grateful for the great forum that we have ,and to be able to communicate with each other the way we do.Haven't had to use my blanket and smoke signals for years now!!!!

X2, LoL

I'm on dial-up all the time ... except when I have my lap top in a motel room, lol.

I'm still waiting on either ATT DSL or Clear broadband to get out to my corner of hickville. For some reason Clear thinks it's a better idea to have 100% coverage on a giant empty hunk of land down the road where no one lives than covering all the houses farther up the road.......go figure.

I know who he is. Might be one of the greatest QB coaches ever! Last I heard he was coaching down in Mission, TX. Hard not to know who his son's are though. Ty is a little closer to my age, just still a little younger. Koy was one heck of a QB although he was never big enough to make the biggies. I think Sonny was one of the first coaches to use the no huddle offense.

It's cool that you know some cool Texans.

He's really a hoosier, but he has been down there a long time, he probably does have some bull shit in his cowboy boots. j/k

My old high school coach came down first, then he hired Sonny as a ass. coach, and the rest is history.
