A friend visited my page the other day and told me it was boring.

I agree wholeheartedly...it is boring, but as long as I'm cursed with living in a rural area not privileged to modern conveniences such as high-speed internet, radio reception and local TV channels, it's going to stay that way. It's my own form of personal revolt against the system and lack of technological advancement in my area.

There are so many things I'd love to do like watch cool videos and download 46MB files from the comfort of my home but since I'm stuck with dial-up until the day I die or move (according to AT&T), it will never happen unless I travel 12 miles to the local library and right now gasoline conservation is a priority in our household. 

Therefore, to those of you who keep sending me cool stuff to watch and download, I thank you and I apologize.

I promise to look at them all...just as soon as the powers to be decide those of us living on the outskirts of civilization should be allowed to enter the 21 century.
