I've heard mixed reviews... some hated it and some liked it.

dslreports.com might have some reviews in your area worth checking out.

Also of note is that Speakeasy(.net) can often provide DSL without requiring a land line if you're in the right area. That's what I have, and it's quite good.

People use umbrellas, just not very often.

It's because a lot of times are rains are just drizzles.

Love the colors and your dog is so cute :) Dobermans look so petable when their ears are uncropped.

Not everything around here gets torn down :/ there are a lot of old homes and a lot of people that are gonna keep 'em!

Ducati... if you like Facebook for networking professionally you should really check out Linked in (www.linkedin.com). It's layout is better suited for such a task imo.

Just be careful the moss doesn't take everything over!

If you'd like, you can have the moss from my back yard, trust me when I say: It's very hearty! :)

I'm glad to hear some bannings occurred. Honestly, it was getting to the point where I didn't want to read any comments because there was bound to be a troll or two shitting everything up.

Actually planning for something to be obsolete sucks, but at least in this day of ebay/craigslist/goodwill things are getting reused and (hopefully) staying out of landfills.

My best "electronic" that has lasted way longer than I ever thought it would is a toaster I bought at Goodwill for $2 in 2000. Seven years later and it's still going strong!

Something that didn't last as long as I thought it would though... My whirlpool dishwasher. True, I didn't buy it, but when it broke and I pulled it out I realized that it was only two years old (datestamp). It hadn't worked well for a year of that time, and now it's at the dump (though at least it'll be recycled).

This is an awesome picture. The color and composition is fantastic. I bet it looks even better printed and framed!

Comcast can be hit or miss. In highly populous areas around here (Seattle) it's generally a miss as they seem to either stack too many people up on equipment or are just unable to find faulty equipment in their network. This of course isn't even mentioning the price (which is high for a mediocre service).

For now Speakeasy is what the serious Seattle Internet user gets, but we'll see how long that lasts now that Best Buy has bought them out.
