    Speedbump!

    No juicy gossip from me, I'm afraid.

    There's a saying in New England that goes,

    "If you don't like the weather in New England, wait a minute."

    That was true yesterday. Yesterday, I was outside during the day in short sleeves and by dinnertime, I had 12 layers of clothing on freezing my butt off. It was such a drastic change, I thought I'd share that with you....

    Thanks for the mental image.
    Howdy.
    It's freezing cold here today too. The wind cut through my gloves, pants and coat. I hate cold weather if it's not snowing. And Sunday it was in the 70's! :mad:

(this explanation brought to you courtesy of someone who doesn't even understand the difference between DSL and cable Interent. Or is there one? )
    Uh, there is a difference between DSL and cable internet. DSL goes through your phone line and cable internet, as the name suggests, goes through your cable line. I've read in many places that cable is faster than DSL, but I wouldn't know. I haven't tried DSL, and I just only got cable internet two weeks ago.

    Hey, guys, I've got to go for a bit. Should be back in an hour or so. Don't get all crazy and start talking about catheters again while I'm gone! :nono
