The day I threw in the towel and ditched dialup for cable internet,
I never looked back. My dialup connection was a huge hassle, I
was dropped continually, and when I wasn't, their news server would
be down. Never mind the painfully slow speed, like those comcast
commercials with the turtles.

I don't know why I'm so cheap sometimes. What I spend a month
above dialup has saved me far more in aggravation.
