Personally, I'm starting to get a bit offended with the whole having
to tiptoe around trying to find the politically correct non-offensive
word to describe someone or something.
I understand there are some terms for groups of people which are just
plain offensive. But this whole "this term that used to be ok is now
offensive so you shouldn't use it" thing is getting old. Especially
when the same group of people have been referred to two or three
different ways since I can remember. And just when you figure out
what you *think* is accurate, someone decides that's offensive too.
It's almost like you need a twitter feed to keep up. And honestly, I
think that no matter which supposedly politically correct term you
used, someone would be offended by it.
People just need to grow a thicker skin and get on with their lives.

Yeah, I think that's just made up, though. Something to make us
feel bad about. All kinds of places still have Oriental in their
name, the Asians I know still call people Oriental. I don't think
it's the same as terms for other races.

I love this video :)
Anytime the word cable or even if I have a customer switch to
cable this is what I pull up to watch at the end of the day :)

im down for alot of things
i find it hard to believe that in that amount of time not
a single one of the 137 down modems had been restarted.
name any section of your network that 137 customers could
be down and you go almost the whole day without a single
person calling or powercycling

you tell me how to make a profit on 5 or 6
customers paying 39-49 bucks a month for internets
when your other 2 options are a 1700 dollar a
month T1 or a fiber connection with over 10k
buildout and 2600/month 50mb fiber. Id be
interested to see that math. i think we make like
8 bucks on that site after we pay for the
resellable cable connection as it is. I think the
only thing we make any money there on is the
hosted email.
