it's the little (data and hence life giving) things

At school, internet is like running water - it's everywhere, and you come to expect data on tap, through a fat pipe. This summer, internet is usually not available, and when it is, it's a trickle. I'm drying up.

Ironically, I'm in the city with the most free wireless in the world (go NYC wireless), without my wireless card (I'm an idiot and left my wireless card with my dad's stuff in New Hampshire) - it's like being a heroin addict, and being in a big warehouse full of heroin, but you've forgotten your spoon, lighter, needle, and belt. My analogies are nothing if not elegant.

Hey Ben, This is just why people like me are becoming suckers for pocket pcs. You could be there with a pocket pc phone for basic e-mail, posting, and surfing. Or since NY is so wifi the ppc (pocket pcs) with built in WIFI. They are as cheap as like $300. So then no matter what happens (forget wifi for laptop.) and shit you ave your net connection. hehe Anyways i have had a obvious ppc adgenda for some time now. hehe enjoy and Tell julia i was telling friends stories about her yesterday. I miss her and her crazy antics.
