Comcast Must Die (Preferably In a Fire)
Yep, I'm offline again. And this time it's not even yoyoing for a while then back, it's just dead -- no less than a week since comcast last checked our crappylow signal strength.
No SL work, no IMs, no TF2, etc... Until they get here to poke at in on SUNDAY. ARGH.
On the upside I managed to snag a rental copy of GTA4 to test the controls. (They changed them around a bit this time, more of a stock shooter mechanic.) Fortunately the classic style controls are still there, so I can in fact play... Although the new car handling sucks. If I can get the hang of that and shooting I might buy the game.
...Now to go stare at the wall for awhile. And/or the Venture Bros dvd I rented. Heard good things about that show, figured I should scope it out.
Edit: It's still not 100% stable, but it seems the evening hours are plausible for internet access. I'll have to skip tomorrow's telecommuting, though... from past experiences when Comcast flakes out it always flakes out during work hours, for some weird reason. You'd think it'd be the other way around.
Finished Venture Bros Season 1. This show is AWESOME. SO DAMN AWESOME. I'm gonna put in Amazon orders for the box sets. I'm a sucker for any show that plays with melodramatic cartoonish villanry.
