It just so happens one of the two stations IS PBS out of Marquette University, the other is WLUC TV-6, which is available everywhere.

Now what I want to know is, why can I get cheap DSL up here in the middle of (bleeping) nowhere with the POP more than 10 miles way, while I'm stuck with expen$ive Comca$t at home?

Ya Hey! Welcome to da Yoooo Peee, eh?

Ya - Hoo dere, hoser. My parents retired to Midland, Ontario, Canada aboot 40 years ago, which is aboot the same latitude as the U-P.

I asked my Dad why they didn't go to Clearwater, FLA, where they had land. He said that the people talked funny.

You guys measure snow in feet instead of inches! Clearwater is aboot 10 miles South of me now, and I never have to dig my car out.

Stay well, pal ........... FRegards

In Florida I could only afford dial-up. Then two years ago I moved to Kentucky, and have had a cable modem since then. Who’d have thought that would happen? The Appalachians are supposed to be behind the rest of the country, when it comes to getting “wired.”
