The Internets are broken!

Our internet access crapped out at home a couple of days ago. I assumed that it was Cox who was at fault. The power light on the cable modem was lit, and the receive light was blinking, which is what happens when the cable is down. TV was working fine. Unplugged the modem and plugged it in a few times, but that didn't fix it.
Yesterday it was still out, so we called Cox and they sent a guy over today. Turns out that the modem is dead. He said that 7 years was a pretty good run for a cable modem.
Going out to buy a new one tonight. Here's hoping for another 7.

Hi Everyone

I often wonder what percentage of blog posts on the internet start with "Sorry for the lack of recent updates." I bet it is pretty high.
In that spirit I would like to say:
I refuse to apologize for the lack of recent updates. I'm busy. I have some ideas. Stuff is coming. It will be great. Be patient. Go check out one of my linked sites while you wait.

Link of the (mumble mumble)

Sorry for the lack of content. Here's a link to tide you over until I write something original:
Yesterland
This page has pictures and descriptions of all the old rides and attractions that used to be at Disneyland and other Disney parks.
They also have a section on California Adventure, which already has had a lot of stuff shut down (possibly the topic of my next post - we were just there last week)
