Snippets and Wisps - Ideas, Opinions and Musings of Steve Will
Monday, 12 July 2004
There must be a name for this....

Psychologists must have a name for severe frustration brought about by technology....

We are so dependent on technology these days.

Especially the part of "we" which includes me. And "dependent" as it relates to leisure. So this is no serious matter, in the grand scheme of things. But...

My Cable Internet has been so flaky lately. It will just drop out, intermittently. This would be no big problem for most folks. An annoyance for sure, but it would not cost them real dollars.

Me, I play "Magic Online." So, I dole out $13.07 to play in a draft tournament, I choose my cards, and then, just before my first match is to begin, the Cable Internet drops!

It's been weeks of this now, and the cable repair person should show up Wednesday. Let's hope they can make it all better now.

That's enough whining.

Name: Michael

I had to copy and paste that last thought into Word and then zoom in so I could see the sentiment. Hah! That's what blogs are for! I like my DSL connection, though I've had that go down, too; it's only happened once, but it was vexing!
Best,
Mike
