Internet still down. Yesterday’s lie was that it would be up at 8:00 this morning.
8:30 am: Here is the new lie: “An outage has been reported in your area. Our technicians are looking into it, and we hope to have the issue resolved soon.”
Worst case scenario is Thursday when we get hooked into the new fiber optic system, which all the invading commifornians here have already gotten.
All of the oldest customers I have talked to are in the same position we are. We have been told we would be the first upgraded and the upgrade was free. Well the fluid dictionary has drastically changed another word. Free is now defined as doubling the price of the service.
We are doing what we can early in the morning with f-ked up Verizon hotspot that is no doubt overloading as everybody wakes up to the point we can’t even put up a comment.
Anyway, the new “free” modem for $200 is said to be delivered and installed on Thursday. There is not a damn thing we can do about it.
All the original inhabitants of this town who are the oldest customers of Century-suck-my-ass-link are getting f-ked too. Kind of hard to school your kids on the internet with no internet.
They keep saying the old internet is coming back on and changing the time every twelve hours. As soon as we get back up, I will explain better in a more pleasant tone.
F-k Silicon Valley.
Damn!! Why don’t they just call their agenda, “Operation Back ‘Em Into A Corner?!!” ‘Cause that’s what it feels like: Super Surround. A good thing our “corner” has a “store” of some of the “supplies” we need to bust out.
Sorry you’re going through this, Henry and Laura. Many are goin’ through it with you.

I went to the Dollar General this morning. The cashier and I were discussing the weather when she mentioned her manager had been informed to be prepared for rolling blackouts. He was told they would last a half hour or so but no mention of day or time
When I try to log on to view my checking account…… ‘VIRTUAL BRANCH (ONLINE ACCESS TO YOUR ACCOUNTS) AND MOBILITI (MOBILE APP) ARE CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE DUE TO A WEATHER RELATED POWER OUTAGE. THEY ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON IT. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER. ‘ HUH? We have not had any storms for quite some time…..hmmm
