I broke down and ordered a DSL modem from AT&T, after being unsuccessful in my efforts to secure one on the free market.
It can’t get here soon enough because I’m on a 30-minute time limit on the computers at Melrose Place.
Here’s an excerpt from another conversation with Anonymous Buddy.

(laughs)
I read an article on STLtoday about the new casino wanting to rename a stretch of road in South County to “River City Casino Boulevard”.
I mentioned this to Mr. O, and told him I thought it was bad idea.”The casino is trying to buy their approval for $500,” I explained.
“What’s the big deal?” he asked.
“People have been living on those streets for decades. They raised their families there. And you think it’s okay to change the name to advertise a casino?”
“It’s just a street name.”
“Do you think $500 is a fair price?”
“I’d do it for a $50 casino chip.”
“What if you lived on a street, and some company wanted to change the name to Shit Turd Avenue?”
“Make it a hundred.”
Burning down love.
