 | Rural Broadband does suck "I'm still on AOL out here in the rural roads of Iowa. Can't get no crop reports or nothing on AOL. Cellphones barely work out here. Gotta use walktalkies. Ma Bell barely wants to put a phone out here and it's in the barn. Glad the horses have 911 to call. Take 'em an hour to get here though. Well, there is some good things though. That boy on America's Got Talent is better than Garth Brooks. Got satellite for that. My kid, he's 18, will eventually be taking over the farm. Not sure about this Obama fella but we ain't got no stimulus stuff out here, and I'm sure he'd wanna take my guns. One of the other farmers round here has that wild blue internet. It sucks. Guess wild blue ain't Space the final frontier like Kirk had. Cable told me it would cost $10,000 for them to be out here. My satellite dish didn't cost me a thing. Gee, I can watch 500 channels, 100 or so in Europe, and can't get no high speed stuff here. Makes ya sick, huh?" |
