<vanity of all vanities>
my lone laptop | 1/30/06 | TxRoadkill

Posted on 01/30/2006 8:56:01 PM PST by txroadkill

So here I am 300 miles away from home and family to do Hostil depositions tomorrow all day. A verry nice family who is a friend of my attorney has taken me in and have given me a nice comfortable bed for which to sleep, they have offored me food and drink and even my own room to relax and sleep. But I still felt all alone and home sick. I was crushed to find that my great host has highspeed internet service, it is without a router or wireless.

But as I plug in my wireless card from netgear with its long rang antina I now find that there is a week unsecured serve coming from the house accross the street and although it is a bit weak, it does bring my family back to me as I click on my home button and get the lastest new from my true family at FreeRepublic.com I an awashed by the feeling that went away, I am not at all alone.

Without you...I felt unworthy to be sitting here in my pajamahs

Thank God for unrestricted network servers and mostly thank God for the people of the FreeRepublic...I am truely not alone.

Nope, you're not alone. Even if you have to hitchhike to a library we'll be here.

Keep us posted, FRiend.

I think next time you should re-route your trip. I don't think anyone will think you flipped if you went to LA......via Omaha.

Although I wish I could, I can't do anything for you. So here's a crazy fat kid.

Until tomorrow night when I have to buy a data link port so I can hook up my cellphone and freep and watch the State of the Union while driving home with out miss our fearless leader.

Easy on the drama. You'll be fine. Try a beer. Or watch some TV. Or drink a beer and watch TV. Or just go to sleep.

Alot of people don't have internet or even computers and they are just fine.

Go easy bro.

Why don't you go to the house across the street and see if the door is unlocked. If it is go inside and see if they have anything else you need.
