Get cable or something (I used uverse), I watched a ton of curling :D I honestly love it!

I miss Uverse with a passion. Being able to record up to 4 streams on the DVR at once = EPIC WIN. And the price was VERY fair. And they included Versus as a standard channel when I had it.

I wish we had access to some kind of cable-based internet. We only have the company's DSL and the last time I checked we weren't even getting 720KBps out of it. :(


I like to push buttons on thingies that take pictures. Sometimes I like to push other buttons, too.
I only bite on the second Tuesday of every week, usually only mean people - they kinda taste like chicken...

This is my iPhone 4S speed test history:

The bottom two were when ATT was throttling me for going over 2GB in the month. :-P During that time, I was getting about 2/3rds of your DSL speed on my iPhone...it was like a nightmare! :( I upgraded to the 5GB w/ HotSpot Plan.

Note I installed the new iOS and my phone is now "4G" (see top)! :lol:

I don't have 4G... I don't even get 3G here. I get the cell broadband that was below 3G and I only get it if I sit right beside my signal amplifier (we didn't get the dish for the amplifier pointed just right on our roof and our roof is really steep and we don't have a ladder high enough so you have to climb up the roof which is really frightening... we're waiting to maybe beg one of K's sons to do it for us since they're younger and all that). So cell broadband isn't available either.

Damn. You are so far out in the sticks it ain't funny. It's like you are living with the technology of 1998, not 2012.

I wonder if by traveling to Missouri one might be able to actually travel BACK in time.

Found this on google for "rural Missouri":

Well, you'd wonder if you had if you hit the Amish communities for sure? ;-)a

Hubby wants to move but I love my magical little place so much. We have this little creek we have to drive over with a bridge and you can't see our house from the road. Lots of trees between us and anyone else. Our pond leaks - we need to get some gypsum and put down for how porous the soil is making it, but except for that one flaw... we have berry bushes, fruit trees, etc., etc... All of these things established here. It will take years to start them all over again somewhere else. :(

I really, really love it here! (can you tell yet?)

I'm looking hard again at satellite internet again to be honest. The costs will be about the same and they advertise higher speeds (though I'm sure they're exaggerating). I think part of our problem is they're running us through a digital multiplexer and piggybacking a whole bunch of DSL over two copper pairs. So at night when everyone hits the internet it's too much for it to run fast and we slow down to just barely faster than dial-up!
