It has now been 49 minutes since I first tried to log on to the internet. I’ve tried several different browsers…at first, I got on with Firefox but after reading one email, slipped off and couldn’t get back on. I tried explorer (which always sucks) and could get to my homepage but nowhere else.
Remember last year? The feds decided that the internet, which arose, developed and took over the world without their help, needed to be ‘fixed’ with regulation so it would be ‘fair’. So they passed something called ‘net neutrality’. Now I can’t even see my emails. This is what happens when the federal government gets their stupid, strangling mitts on things.
I know I said I’d try to write more this year and I have tried.
But I’m a busy person and I can’t afford 52 minutes (and counting) of staring at blank screens waiting for my federally regulated internet to get its fucking act together.
I feel like Elvis must have on the day he shot his TV set.
