Enforced vacation from blogging

First I installed Mozilla Firefox 1.5, which totally destroyed my computer's ability to access the Internet. If you're considering using this, DON'T! When I accessed their web site, I discovered that it would cost me $39.95 to get tech support. So much for free software.

Then I tried to restore my computer to an earlier date. This didn't work.

Now the DSL doesn't work. And the phones don't work either.

I have had Verizon (cursed be their name) out here three (3) times. I am awaiting a fourth visit without much hope.

Thank God I have a cell phone, or I would be unable to even order a pizza.
